No New Posts Star-Stone

The star-stone is also doubled as the watch post, the higest point in the Weyr, located on the rim of the volcano. From this vantage point, one can see the entire island, and Shoreline Hold as well.

No New Posts Weyrbowl

The Heart of the volcano, the deep crater where once magma boiled and waited to burst out from the top, but now solid rock and dirt, green grasses thriving on the ashy soil. There is a small lake in the center, formed by rainwater collecting, though most prefer to take the short trip to the beach to wash their dragons, and leave the lake for a source of freshwater.

No New Posts Infirmary

Another area dug into the lower portion of the volcano. A short hallway connects to a very large room, one that nearly rivals the size of the Hatching Sands, dedicated to the sick and injured. One side of the room is lined with cots, the other make-shift couches for the dragons. The far end of the room is for storage, where gauze, numbweed, needlethorn, and any other usuful salves and items are stored.

No New Posts Lower Caverns

An expanse of tunnels and rooms dug by dragons. The kitchen and Dining Hall are both near the surface, beyond them you'll find housing for the drudges.

No New Posts Bathing Quarters

There are seven of them, spread throughout the Weyr on different levels. Large rooms, with pools of water in the center. Often filled with enough steam to keep even those who are bashful comfortable. There are buckets of sweetsand near the entrances of each, from which a handful can be taken for bathing. One of the seven rooms is high up, among the queen weyrs, and is reserved for those of rank only.

No New Posts Hatching Sands

Those who do not fare well in enclosed spaces should avoid being candidates for this Weyr. To reach the Hatching Sands, one must pass through a long tunnel, angles at a mild descent, to reach to hot sands. Along the edges of the cavern are tall stands, made of hardwood from the island, for those who come to watch, and the black sands from the beaches were carted down to cover the floor of the cavern, giving the whole place an eerie look. Large enough for three Golds, as it was made by just that, there is no press for space as it is rare that three of the Weyr's queens would be on the sands at the same time.

No New Posts Meeting Hall

A Rocky area at the edge of the water, about a klick from the Weyr itself. The top of the rock is flat and smooth, where dragons may lounge and sunbathe while the riders discuss matters. Beneath that, bored into the rock itself, it the actual room, with a large table in the center, surrounded by chairs.

No New Posts Weyrs

The weyrs of the riders climb the entire inner walls of the volcano connected by paths with widened areas that are the ledges for the dragons. Each path is about wide enough for a Brown to walk along comfortably, and the ledges are large enough to fit a Gold. The queen weyrs, near the top, have a second ledge and entrance on the outside wall of the volcano.

No New Posts Weyrling Barracks

Another area that takes up a little over a quarter of the ground level. Divided into two rooms, male and female, and spacious enough for the newly hatched dragons not to be uncomfortable or crowded.

No New Posts Candidate Barracks

The candidate barracks take up about a quarter of the ground level. Divided into two large rooms, one for boys and one for girls, with two entrances for each.

No New Posts Island

Anywhere on the island you wish to go. This also counts as the feeding grounds, as the herds are turned loose to roam. The beaches of the island are lined with not white, but black sand, and are a great place to hunt for firelizard eggs.

No New Posts Shoreline Hold

Shoreline Hold is built on the shore, looking out over the waters one can easily spot the island of Black Sands Weyr. Shoreline has more organization than West Bay, and around the Hold is a large garden, carefully cultivated, from which many of the vegetable and fruit crops are produced, making it not only pretty, but practical. The location of the Hold makes for a beautiful scene at any time of day, and despite being a large producer of produce, it is one of the more attractive places to live on the North Continent.

No New Posts West Bay Hold

West Bay Hold is named so because it was built beside a bay on the western coast. It is a fishing hold that makes use of a variety of wherries, and holds a small fleet of boats. The people are wary of dragons, and rightly so, for who can blame them after the way Black Sands Weyr behaved? The Hold itself is scattered, no organization to the structure at all, and seemingly built around no central location, but more from several. The first is the Hold, the second, to the South, is the bay, and the third is a large area of farmland.

Board Information & Statistics

Board Description
Black Sands Weyr
Located on an island of the west shores, the Weyr is built in the heart of a long-dormant volcano. The island itself is rather large and unmistakable due to the black sand that lines the beaches. Beware of the inhabitants though, some are far from friendly.
