General No HAD Avoid perfect characters. On Pern's relative lack of redheads, blonds, blue-eyed characters and so forth: we really don't care. If every single PC is blond, we don't see how it's going to effect RP much. Please, don't worry about it, and don't take someone else to task for making a blond. You must have permission for any art you use to represent your character. You must note you have said permission in your app. PBs aren't required. If you choose to use them, please realize we aren't going to allow you to 'claim' anyone. So, if two people end up having the same PB... then they do. The more information you give us to work with, the better we'll able to integrate your character into the plot. Inhuman hair or eye colors on humans are not permitted. Or skin colors, or teeth colors for that matter. Characters with disorders or disabilites are welcome, but please be sure to approach the issue with respect. Keep in mind the timeline (150 years after thread) and the location (Pern's first prison) when creating characters. Starry-eyed 15-year-old harpers with thread score scars will be in short supply. |

Candidates -Warden's Weyr does not search. Period. Do not say your character was searched and brought to Warden's Weyr. Everyone in Warden's Weyr works either as a guard, or as support staff for the prison. Your 'candidate' must have an actual occupation. -Any non-prisoner at Warden's between the ages of twelve and thirty-four is allowed to stand. -If you want 'search' in your story, please note that some candidates were transferred from various Weyrs to stand for the previous clutch. They were, however, required to agree to stay on at the Weyr and work, should they not impress. -Young people do exist at Warden's some guards brought their families. But they're less common as youths are usually sent off to the crafthalls in this timeline. |

Prisoners
-Please consult the 'Pern's Laws' thread before creating a prisoner. Otherwise, you won't know what's considered a crime. -Please realize only those who've committed crimes listed under 'Non-violent offences' will be allowed to stand for the clutch. And even they will have to be on their very best behavior. -However, there will be an opportunity in the future for violent offenders to impress. -No dragonrider prisoners at this time. -Warden's Weyr does not yet accommodate child prisoners. They take violent criminals 15 and up and non-violent criminals 16 and up. -Be sure to detail what crimes your character committed, and why, in their history. -Prisoners are only permitted one firelizard, and that firelizard must be male. |

Wher handlers -All Wher Handlers work as guards. -The majority of Wher Handlers transferred to Warden's did so voluntarily. Unlike dragonriders, they're welcome to relocate if they wish. -Wher handlers may only apply with one wher, however, they may acquire another one over the course of the game. |

Dragonriders -All dragonriders work as guards. -Most dragonriders who've been transferred to Warden's were transferred as a punishment. It's not considered a prime location. -Transferring 'out' of Warden's usually means striking it out on ones own. Other Weyr's generally don't take riders from Warden's in. -They work hard. It's a grueling life. Feel free to create a lazy rider, but realize that laziness will not be indulged. -There's only been one clutch at Warden's. The dragons are now seven months old. If you want to create a rider from that clutch please read up on our insta-weyrlings. |
