Widespread food shortages and the possibility of famine are on the minds of most residents of Xanadu Town, though they were of no concern at all to Azov Weyr's gold Eteth, whose mating flight with a foreign bronze suitor soon became a new topic of discussion. Everyone likes to root for their home team, but after the discovery of a sometimes-fatal genetic flaw in one of Azov's draconic bloodlines, the outside influence of the Ongolan bronze Amglyth brings nothing but hope for the upcoming clutch of eggs.

So you know what that means! Second Pass is Searching candidates for a PC Hatching scheduled for mid to late September. Second Pass's Search and Weyrlinghood process is easy-peasy (ain't nobody got time for that!), and you can read more about it at . We also have ongoing plots involving the research and marketing of fellis, the aforementioned food shortages and a mysterious serials writer whose works are becoming the talk of Xanadu Town.

We're always on the lookout for all sorts of character types like medics, teachers and college professors (we have a college!), middle-aged people, traders/merchants, people with weird professions, soccer fanatics and a personal assistant to the blue-riding heir to Rami Hold. Seriously, that position's just cursed. You can also adopt an existing NPC or create an instarider.

Second Pass consists of a small but devoted group of players who love roping new people into our odd little world. Theme knowledge (Dragonriders of Pern) is not required as long as you don't mind reading some news files and asking lots of questions. Come check us out at !
