Welcome to Gaia! ::

51-55. One of the local holds is holding a Gather and they've invited you to attend as their honored guests. If you choose to join in the celebrations you will find yourself very much behind schedule and also in heaps of trouble. However, the local vintage is very good and you caught some promising looks from the holders if you happen to be a brown or bronzerider. If you're a white, blue, or greenrider they're friendly but not quite as awestruck.

27-30. While the day started off sunny and warm, as the afternoon wears on the clouds build and a line of squalls form. If you're a brown or bronze rider, you are able to fly through the squall and fight the worst of the winds. If you're a white, blue, or green, you may either decide to fight the winds and fly through it (though your dragon might well wind up a bit exhausted afterwards) or you can turn round and avoid the worst of it.

61-64. You come across a small cothold that was clearly hit badly with Thread during the last Fall.
If you are from Flame's Fury: You're not sure how they were missed, but there are wounded here and your Wingleader orders you to return to the Weyr immediately to bring healers and aid back.

Report back to the the Weyrleader with this information as it is clear that someone is not doing their job. There are evidently holes in the Weyr's Threadfall charts.

65-70. A neighboring cothold has their feathers ruffled over Western's performance during Threadfall. In historic times dragonriders did not fly a Fall above the Western continent, therefore much of what you "know" about the patterns there is conjecture based off of the best that the experts can tell you about Threadfall in general, as well as Western weather patterns and experience from the past several Turns. Knowing that doesn't make explaining it to the cotholders any easier. Roll a D4 to see what happens.
--1. You manage, through sheer determination and charisma to talk the cotholders around to your side of things and part ways as unlikely friends.
--2. Although you try to explain why the Weyr has fallen short, your explanations just aren't up to snuff and you are instructed to take their complaints directly to the top.
--3. Not completely convinced by your platitudes, the cotholders nevertheless grudgingly settle down, with promises that they will be watching during the next Fall.
--4. You have caused a diplomatic incident and need to report directly back to the Weyrleader in order to avoid serious repercussions. You pay the cotholders off but sense that more trouble is on the way

91. As you pass Whitecliff Weyrhold, you find a young dragon in dire straits. S/he is unable to take off as one wing has become badly befouled, and the rider is in distress trying to keep him/her calm. Nothing you say or do will convince the rider that s/he isn't responsible for the predicament, but you're able to get the pair back to Whitecliff without too much trouble. You're not sure why Western Weyr has such a negative outlook on the Weyrhold, as the rider and dragon pair you met seemed friendly enough. [If you choose to pass, you are no longer eligible for future dragon prizes for the duration of this game. If you want the surprise dragon, quote Mr Cheri & Uta and we will drop a pet off for you!]

This prize can be claimed by DIFFERENT players up to 5 times!

A pretty blue from Andranis!

93-97: Nothing but water. Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink. You find yourself getting antsy, and your eyes sore, and your dragons conversation boring. You find yourself daydreaming, and start thinking about a certain someone in wherhide pants....
