Life in a Weyr is communal, oftentimes it can become very difficult to keep something secret as some of the old Aunties around Igen Weyr are among the most gossipy busybodies on Pern. Let one of them get wind of something juciy and amusing, and before long, the entire Weyr knows the story. And what better way to share it than here? If you have some Weyr gossip to submit, please be sure to keep it fun, amusing, and good-natured.

Time has flown since Igens Senior Queen flew and was claimed by a Fortian Bronze. The resulting clutch was fair in size with nine eggs cluthed and placed within clear view of the galleries for all to gawk at. While normally the gold is known to hover over her eggs, this time she seemed to hover more over her rider who still shows signs of shock and wear from the death of one of the weyrs older bronze riders. With candidates in and out, the eggs hardened and finally hatched, spewing their occupants onto the hot sands where their lifemates were soon picked out of the line of white.
Timid Tiger Striped Brown Yolth and H'irsh
Glomping Gazelle Brown Jezerackth and Simma
Frenzied Firestorm Green Glasth and B'len
Brazen Berry Blue Ranerth and F'irx
Determined and Direct Blue Jraysth and Hellana
Fragile Bottle Green Dlaniyth and Tanya
Surprisely Serious Bronze Plonarth and W'irn
Vividly Hued Green Cameranth and Julia
Massively Miffed Green Olianarth and Marni
When the last hatchling impressed the galleries were quick to empty and the healers were seen handing out many a headache remedy as this had to have been the noisest hatching the weyr had ever had with the hatchlings making as much noise as 20 adult dragons put together. The weyrs populace is greatly pleased with the hatchings result as all but 2 of those candidates that impressed were teenagers that came to the weyr homeless and family-less after the storm that hit the area.

Sianne's Sakrienth took to the skies and was caught, not by Troyseth as people expected, by N'hil's Quiath to make him Igen's new Weyrleader.
*July 22nd, 2008*
After several Turns as Weyrsecond of Igen Weyr, Oe'lly has officially stepped down. After much consideration, the knot was then given to K'al, rider of brown Perkineth.
*July 19th, 2008*
The (NPC) clutch of gold Sakrienth and bronze Troyseth finally hatched. It was a long time coming according to the Candidates at Igen Weyr, it really seemed like the eggs that the Senior pair protected on the sands would never hatch but in the end they did and there were many that were surprised by just what they saw happen right before their eyes. The eggs started moving just as the evening meal began though no hatchlings made their arrival until a few hours later when the candidates started wavering in their places on the heated sands.
The Pairs are as follows:
Imperious Jadefrosted Noble Green Lujaith and K'ian
Unyielding Willpower Bronze Kirjavath and W'ilm
Quietly Deceptive Brown Ozarith and Haliah
Light of the Campfire Green Larayeth and Kielly
Boisterous Ember Blue Calficeth and S'fia
Livin' on Easy Street Blue Quilth and D'iav
Forever a Leader Blue Yunaeth and F'iren
Beautiful Badgirl Green Uliniath and L'zur
Proud Protector of the Innocent Bronze Galiath and P'nan
Delicate Hidden Treasure Gold Biersath and Allie

Aoriya, her father and several Smithcrafters organized a celebration in Igen's center bowl. Along with food fit for a Gather feast, the real treat was the large fireworks display. Farris and her band members also performed at the evening celebration. Rumor is running wild that near the end of their performance, Farris called on the Weyrleader G'rism to join her on stage where she promptly snared him into a kiss. The whole event, in the end, was a huge success and even brought in some visitors from various locations; Eastern and Fort notably among the crowds.
Word has it that more changes are occurring. First being that K'al, once a Wingrider in Oasis, has been transfered to Dune. On top of that, some have even suggested that a transfer from outside of Igen is in progress. Something about a new bronzerider being recruited as a Wingsecond for Farris's Oasis Wing. But there has been no solid confirmation on this from Igen's leadership. Even so, ever since G'rism took over as Weyrleader, things seem to have been turned around quite a bit.
*July 5th, 2008*
Farris is now the Wingleader of Oasis, and Aoriya is now the Wingleader of Damascin.
Both will be looking for Wingsecond's sometime soon.

The Wingsecond position for the Damascin Wing has now been filled. Plenty more positions remain open, including the Weyrlingmaster and Assistant Weyrlingmaster. Non-rider, but other important Weyr staff positions are also open for application: Headwoman and Steward among them. Please @mail Igen Staff on game if interested!

Wingleader positions for Oasis and Damascin have been filled. Wingsecond for Oasis has been filled, but the position still remains open for Damascin. Weyrlingmaster Staff is also still wide open.
*June 24th, 2008*
Wingleaders, Wingseconds and Weyrlingmaster Staff are currently being actively looked for by Igen Staff. Please send an @mail to staff members if interested. Please note, you must be on Igen's knot in order to do so! If need be, we'll consider transfers from other Weyrs.

Leadership was opened up to the next Gold to rise and to the shock of all at Igen it was young Matilda's Eluarith that rose before Sianne's Sakrienth and was caught by T'slens Bronze Barensath. With the change of leadership came alot of changes at the Desert Weyr. Sianne quietly departed the weyr along with many other riders, residents, and crafters. They scattered in the wind to all corners of Pern. Igens New leadership is as follows:
Senior Weyrwoman - Matilda, rider of Gold Eluarith
Weyrleader - T'slen, rider of Bronze Barensath
Junior Weyrwomen - Salmina, rider of Gold Violaenth
Camili, rider of Gold Surranth
Weyrlingmaster - Markla, rider of Blue Pasith
AWLM - T'vid, rider of Green Samalth
The Clutch that came with the leadership flight was rather small and disappointing to the weyr as a whole with the gold producing only five eggs. The weyrlings pairs are as follows:
Needy, Greedy Brown Chalakith and F'ossn
Temperamental Tidal Wave Green Xanaith and Vallania
Bristling Baby Blue Cocralth and B'sur
Showy Emperial Jade Green Tantiuth and Cassial
Topsy Turvy Spring Green Mallanerith and L'xan
** Igen has now become an NPC area, leadership and such are all NPCs and are not adoptable. This page will be used to keep the area updated as well as to post changes made due to TP's and such that concern the area.**
