T'nire nods, "Very good.  Well, I better see what Cenimith thinks.   No one can be a candidate without her permission.  Follow me to the sands."  You nod and follow the rider over to the sands.  He turns to you, "Well, Cenimith isn't letting anyone near the eggs, but apparently she'll look you over."  You nod and follow him.

First you look at the dragon, then the eggs.
1clutch.bmp (219062 bytes) Then you decide to run away.   When a voice echoes your mind.  }So, you want to be a candidate for my eggs?{  Your legs freeze, and you nod.  Cenimith gives a kind of snort.   "She approves," T'nire says.  "Approves?"  you think. "She approves, though it may not seem like she does.  Snorting like that is actually pretty high approval.  If she didn't, she wouldn't have even let you in the hatching grounds,"  T'nire replies, and you realise you had spoken.  T'nire signals for you to follow him.  You are lead through the grounds and through a door.   Sitting at a desk is a woman, about 20.  She looks at you, "Take a seat and I'll find the papers."  You nod and sit down.  The woman nods and brings out several sheets.  "I am the Weyrwoman of the newly found Timor Weyr, Kayla,"  she introduces herself, "These sheets here, are the rules, which you must agree to.  Then you fill out the forms here, once you have done the nessasary things."  She hands you some paper and you set to work reading it.

'Rules

1) So you are wanting to be a candidate.  Firstly you must have a (g) webpage.  The candidate must have their own weyr page.
2) The candidate has to have a history on Pern.
3) Read through this 'bad weyr'  At the end you will see why I hate it.
"U walk into an empty wyer.  It is pretty and spotless clean.  Inside is a young woman with blond hair and violit eyes.  She smiles with spotless white teeth, "I am Jessica.  This is the wyer for the queen dragon i am to recieve.  Her name will be Samantha.  I have seven flitters, 3 gold and 4 bronze.  They are Ath, Eth, Ith, Oth,Uth, Arth and Erth.  I was abandoned at 5 and taught myself every thing.  My father was really lord holder.  I am a master harper and i am a HAD.   Bye!""
Anyone else sick?  Firstly, weyr is spelt weyr.  She can't spell it!  It would not be spotless clean, and neither would someone's teeth.  The Persona is too perfect.  And come on, taught herself?  Master Harper?  Lord Holder's Daughter?  A HAD?  Yeah right.  Assuming she's going to have a Gold, saying it has a name that doesn't end in Th and is Terran.  Herself having a Terran name.   Be creative!  Only a dragon's name on Pern end in Th.  No flits have it, nore human.  Seven flits?  We only allow up to Three.  And three gold, four bronze.  If the persona has a gold, they may only have one other flit, and it can not be a bronze.  Pern has no contacts or hair dye.  And there is no link!  You must must link!  And say it is Timor Weyr you are a candidate!  This Jessica wouldn't even be worthy of a green watch wher.  And there is no link!  You must must link!  And say it is Timor Weyr you are a candidate!
4) Make sure you have read everything above.  Now.  I can forgive a few grammatical or spelling mistakes.  You must involve the visitor in the story, make them go 'wow!'  Detail.  Don't drone on forever.
5)  Females Impress Golds, Greens and occasionly Blue.  Males any colour but Gold.
6)  Your Persona should be 12-22 if male, and 12-24 if female.
7) You can submit up to three personas, two male and one female.
8) Male candidates are just as good as females.  And, they are more likely to Impress a high ranking colour.  Yes.  The Golds are rare, and if your persona doesn't Impress one, so be it.
9) Don't complain about colour.  Not everyone can have Golds and Bronzes.
10)  The current clutch has twelve eggs, and we are accepting fifteen candidates.   There are eight male spots open and seven female.'

"Done?"  Kayla asks.  You nod.  "The weyr must be up before you send in the form.  If it is, the you may continue."
