The following characters have web pages and/or blurbs written by their players:

Atre: Rider of green Ghiath, Sentinel wing
Atre is one of a kind, as is her lifemate Ghiath... which of the two is odder? It's sometimes hard to know. Both can be stubborn, insisting they can do something whether they can or no, and both are a bit devious. One is pale with dark hair and normally a odd hat whilst the other is green with wings and a tail; one presumes it's obvious which is which.
Cisusse: Rider of green Delioth, Sirocco wing
Born in the heat of Southern Boll and raised a trader-child with the Enlander Clan, Cisusse never really acclimatized to the harsh Fortian winters. Irrelevant, absent-minded, and irresponsible, she's apt to wander the weyr in bare feet, collecting trinkets and missing shifts while off gallivanting across Pern on a whim.
Jill: Rider of brown Arcath, Sirocco Wing
Fort Weyr's flirtatious redhead and her Indiana Arcath! Jill is of Hold blood -- Fort Hold, to be precise -- and now holds the rank of an Assistant Weyrlingmaster. Fear. When she's not performing her duties to Sirocco, she can be found with her lifemate in the Central Bowl, on the beach, or on somebody else's weyr ledge. Just look for the orange-red hair and you'll know it's her.
Joerres: Posted Journeyman Healer
Joerres is the junior member of the Permanent Healer Staff at Fort, but he's got a big niche to fill - besides the usual general medicine, Joe has studied extensively for pediatrics and geriatrics, two seemingly unrelated branches of medicine sorely neglected in the remote cothold where he grew up. Anyhow, from cothold to Healer Hall to Fort Weyr is a big jump, but Joe's was especially big since he married the Weyr Steward, Ryvre, before he took the post. They've settled in and started a family in their greenery-strewn quarters since then.
Kh'rys: Rider of green Ysaleth, Skywatch Wing
Kh'rys modestly describes herself as mellow but occasionally zany. A former weyrsecond, non-maternal mother, and now simple dragonrider, Kh'rys is also famed for her zesty party mix recipes. Also, she does imitations. Ask her to show you what a rider looks like when somebody else improvises content on her character blurb!
Kourrem: Rider of brown Jurayath, Stormriders Wing
An experience-happy rider with a passion for travel, Kourrem flies wherever she wants to go (and to a few places she'd rather avoid) on the back of her large and lofty dragon, Jurayath.
K'rali: Rider of ice-cap blue Rhioth, Sirocco Wing
The original "bull in a china shop" with a dragon to match, this onetime Wingsecond bears a tactlessness and a sense for mischief that made the Harper Hall just a little bit glad--deep down in the most secret recesses of their hearts, of course--to turn her over to the Weyr for her first and only Search at the age of 21.
K'rill: Rider of the rosy bronze Llynth, and dictator (Wingleader) of Sirocco
A fisher at heart, our hero K'rill holds his own with a hoe and sheers; the carefully-maintained redfruit tree on his ledge produces the best fruit for his Weyr-famous mulled cider. Stocky and boyish, he lives to look good, only to fall flat on his face most of the time. But, Ohhhh, how he flaunts those few victories!
Loreli: Rider of Hieratic Nilotic-Green Kismeth, Sirocco Wing
Loreli is the original Bad Girl greenrider, prone to mischief and anarchy, rumored to be a tad bit insane. A former Harper before her impression of Kismeth, Loreli quickly established a reputation around Fort Weyr -- a little wild, a little crazy, a lot flirtatious. She is the Queen of the Butter-Knives, and has been known to cast aspersions upon other people's character through the use of alliteration. In more recent turns, she's toned down considerably, rarely gracing the Weyr populace with unique brand of charm, fading into the background as Just Another Older Rider Who Used To Be Interesting.
Maurynna: Fort Weyr Assistant Nanny
Since her evening run-in with a certain shy bronzerider upon the beach of Fort after her arrival, it's not uncommon to see the nanny with the Weyrleader! Yes, they're an item, and the relationship seems to work for both of them. She's been left on the sands once, but has gotten over the slight disappointment she might have felt, and moved on, living day to day, and sketching when time allows.
M'gael: Rider of Bronze Theronth
M'gael and Theronth worked their way into adulthood, the bronzerider having just passed the decade mark for being a dragonrider. Does that count for something? Has M'gael finally become an old pro at dragonriding, sweeps, wing duties? Not quite. Ask him about the politics of Fort's region, and he'll have not a clue; he tries his best to keep his nose out of that sort of business. Ask him about life, love, and he might dodge the questions, but don't be fooled: he enjoys such topics of discussion.
Sissi: Rider of blue Klimth, Sirocco wing
Aided and abetted in all things by Klimth, Sissi subscribes to the Peter Pan school of thought when it comes to growing up. Her uncomplicated view of the world, almost black-and-white (though some would say naive or pigheaded), includes aversions to high altitudes, positions of authority and eating in public. From a ridiculously large, close-knit family in the Ruathan valleys, she's used to being one of the crowd; aspiring just to "muddle through."
Skyler: Fort Weyr Hair Stylist
An Istan who came into the cold in order to become the king of cool, Skyler styles the hair of both weyr cognoscenti and visiting dignitaries. Want to look just like Lady Terise did during her triumphal tour? Just ask Skyler: tress-master extraordinaire!
S'naid: Rider of brown Modrath
Fort born, now paired with the bounciest brown around, shoe fetishist Modrath. She's now weyrmated-ish to K'rin, that is to say they have adjacent weyrs with a hole knocked between them for ease of access. She's commonly referred to as Sentinel's Wingsecond, occassionally boss, if in one of those moods, but most commonly Seo.
Tarin: Rider of the Artistic Mobster Blue Dragon, Ryuth; Weyrsecond
So many pitchfork-shaking mobs have come together in order to devise eloquent, if unprintable, descriptions of Tarin. So many candidates have ignorantly agreed to be immortalized as art, only to find that dragon art involves things like vinegar, oil, and 47 pounds of shredded carrots. At last count, pretty much everyone agrees that Tarin and Ryuth are menaces who ought to be kept far, far away from civilization. Thus far, they have been: incarcerated as black marketeers, elevated to honorary goldrider status, attacked by infuriated candidates, adored by weird teenagers, protectors of children who turn out not to have been kidnapped at all, skulkers in the shadows, starters of a thousand rumors, and now (through what can only be described as one heck of a plot twist) weyr power-mongers. Why did R'sin decide to make Tarin weyrsecond when all of nature cries out against it? Could it have something to do with the fact that he was angry with Fort Hold, and Fort Hold cried out against it, too? Whatever the reason, seated in the Seat of Authority, Tarin and Ryuth live their lives for the sake of their own entertainment.
X'in: Rider of bronze Dobryth
"I have no idea what to say about X'in," reports the player who allegedly knows all about the character. Foolishly, he adds, "fill in with whatever." So: after years of patient tutelage, X'in has finally learned not to put the left shoe onto his right foot. His friends express hope that he may someday remember that the socks go on before the shoes. Although backwards in many ways, he is known throughout Pern for his ability to perform festive magic tricks and sing any song backwards after hearing it once. Very little in this blurb has been verified, and some sources suggest that only the first two sentences have any truth. There's only one way to find out: sing him a song and ask him to pull a rabbit out of his hat.
Zephre: Rider of green Miyoth
Zephre has been riding and leading in the Weyr for more than half her life, now, and as a senior rider has held many hats, everything up to and including Weyrsecond. She's also worn too many hats, been known as a workaholic, and left a swathe of broken hearts behind her determinedly single stance. (News and gossip on that changes by the hour, see your latest mailers to be sure!) Rumored to enjoy risk so much that her idea of a relaxing afternoon is climbing the sheer cliff face to the Star Stones barefoot, or rappelling in the mountains north of the Weyr. Miyoth, for her part, is a reckless and adventurous green, with wing scars to prove it, a flirty little gossip who loves nothing more than trading stories of a long evening, or flying high over the ocean. Two kids by two different bronzeriders and a dedicated fostermother round out the household.
