What would you be?

[Amanda N]

I was thinking...what would be all be if we were on Pern?  Would you be a dragonrider?  What colour?  A crafter?  Which one?  Any specialty?  Perhaps you would be a Lord Holder.  What would your hold specialise in?  Agriculture, seacrafting, mining?  Or perhaps you would be on the riverboat...

Well...what would you be?

[Paula]

Probably an ordinary hold wife.

[Jane]

I'd like to be on the riverboats; I'd probably be a smith or technician.

[Eimi]

I would probably be an archivist.  I'd be living in the Record Room.  I think that's why I instilled that aspect of myself into U'kaiah.
But then again, I might be a farmer, specializing in working in the nursery, because I have 13 plants in my apartment.  I'm a plant fiend!  I need more space for my plants!  

Either that or a cat...  I think if I had a cat I wouldn't need plants...  I'm a crazy cat lady without any cats so I've substituted plants instead... I'm the crazy plant lady....  Is that worse???

Honestly, I think I would be a dragonrider, only because I have a creepy sense of empathy. I could tell you the really weird stories, but I'll keep this short. Also, I've always had a feeling that if dragons existed, the weyr would be where I would belong. It probably sounds silly and  presumptuous, but it's what I honestly think...

And what color? Would I really have a choice? In the end the hide hue does not matter, I would just be happy to Impress.

[PastMember]

...and I have to agree with Eimi.

I would need a cat. I have two already, and I'm sure my Pern alter ego would have one, or two, as well...

[Amanda N]

Oh yes.  Cat's are a must for me too!  We have five currently.

As for me...I would either be a holdwife or a crafter.  If I were a crafter, I would be a Harper.  I love music and even studied it for a while.    I really don't think I would want to be a dragonrider because I'm a big coward.  If I were a crafter but not a harper, I think I would be a Weaver.  I love to quilt and it would be cool to learn how to do other things in fiber arts. :-D

I also think being a Dolphineer would be awesome too, and I do love to swim.  Alas, I think I'm more inclined to the first two crafts.

[Yvonne]

If I was Pernese, I'd probably either be a Beastcrafter who worked with runners, or a Harper who either recorded histories or did very bad portraits for people who couldn't afford someone better. Or I'd be a regular Holder with nothing special about me save for an itch to be doing something else entirely. :P

I'm a crazy cat lady without any cats so I've substituted plants instead

Eimi? That explains a LOT. *g*

[Shale]

I would be a runner. (No, not a runnerBEAST.) :D

[Dana]

Hmm...  I'd probably be a wife to a man outside of the Weyr--maybe one who works with runnerbeasts so I could be around them  :love5:  I think I'm much too conservative to be a dragonrider, but if I did happen to accidentally Impress, I'd ride green.

[Amanda N]

Yeah, I think I'd probably be green too, Dana, if I did impress.  There's no way a gold would want me! *G*

[PastMember]

Dolphin craft hall is an interesting area too. Unfortunately I am a major procrastinator and any hall I would chose to pursue would result in me becoming a hall staff... but I can multi-task so working in the staff would not be so bad.

[Kaysea]

I'd either be a beastcrafter or dolphineer I think.

I love dragons, would envy any who had one, but don't think I would be prepared to risk my life daily in such a noble way.

I know myself too well. ;o)

[Amanda N]

Oh good, Kaysea, you and I are alike on the dragonrider issue.  :-D

[Eimi]

I probably would have wanted to fly Thread just because it scares me, and I would hate to think I was that scared of something that I couldn't face it.

Though I would probably never Impress a dragon because they would know of my deathly fear of heights XD
