You appear from Between only to find yourself in the perfect spot to catch a sliver of Thread. You successfully flame it down easily. [+1 Target Accuracy]
Now with plenty of firestone to keep them going, R'aum felt a lot better about their chances. He tossed Modrioth a little more stone just in case, preferring to play it safe rather than find out the hard way if he'd given the Brown enough--no one wanted to get their face caught in a cloud of thread, after all. They were able to take care of a strand that had been blown in front of them with ease, shaking off the chill of between with hardly a moment's thought.

Ouch! Feeding your dragon some firestone has resulted in them biting their tongue! This is going to distract your dragon for the next three rolls. Their flaming aim will go down, and they might be slower to dodge out of Thread's way. [Tongue Bitten Effect! Your dragon is distracted by pain. No XP will be earned for the next 3 rolls. Any successes will be nullified. Should you roll a prompt with the possibility of damage, take the max damage allotted for your size/color automatically but it will also end the Tongue Bitten Effect immediately.]
More swearing ensued, as the bronze chomped down on his tongue.

You're low on firestone! If you've already replenished recently (within the last 5 posts) you may choose to skip this roll and just do a general post for no XP. OR you can keep it and blame it on a faulty bag, or some other excuse for being without stone. Call for one of the weyrlings to send you another sack of stone! [we literally just restocked i'm not doing this one hdksjdhf]
How do you think those up top are faring? Modrioth's curiosity was only a touch morbid--he'd seen what it was like up high first hand, and he was sure some of them would have problems. Not too poorly, I'd hope. Dunno. Haven't seen anyone else go down, so...with any luck, it's lightened up. Wouldn't that figure. It gets easier the moment we leave. Gotta keep us on our toes somehow.

Trying valiantly to catch some thread, your dragon flames a bit sooner than you would have preferred. Surprisingly enough, the flame is long, hot, and sustained longer than usual. Your dragon manages to flame the clump and return to their position in their wing. [+1 Flame Length] XP Negated
Diving after a clump of falling thread, Pellereth shot ahead of the falling clump -- much too soon, for it fizzled out before crossing paths with the spores. Damn.

This time, when Modrioth spies thread ahead, he simply lets loose an impressive burst of flame, easily eradicating the wisps without much thought. He wasn't in the mood for much fancy flying, and it was easier just to handle it that way. Good job. Oh, I know.

Your dragon is starting to feel tired. This particular fight is wearing them down. A strong gust of winds tries to throw them out of their position.
3. Your dragon is blown out of formation. They struggle and flap against the wind, and only are able to recover when the wind dies down, feeling more exhausted than before. Worse, you think they may have pulled a muscles in their wing arm! Best watch it. [Light Damage -1 HP ]
Once more, thread pulled them from their positions, as the harsh wind seemed eager to try and pull Pellereth’s wings off of him like some breakable toy. Though he beat his wings, the small bronze struggled earnestly to find his way back to formation.

Wheeling around, snarling as he dodged around thread and errant flame alike, Pellereth snarled as he belched fire to sear down a few threads that had fallen.

Still aching just a little bit, Leucath ducked and dodged a few strands of thread, catching them in her flame as best she could and dancing out of the way of a large strand that would have hit her back had she let it.

The pain that snapped into J'emi's mouth was so sharp that he slapped a hand to the mask over his face inadvertently and peered up at his dragon's headknobs. She made a noise but though Leucath's tongue throbbed in her mouth she didn't react in any other way, she had too much of a job to do!

A gust of wind knocked Leucath straight out of her formation, almost straight out of the air with how small she was! The little green scrambled and attempted to get back into her formation and did the smart thing, hopping Between to get there quickly. J'emi couldn't hide the look on his face despite the goggles and mask, it radiated off of him.

Burning Aces Wing Zamistia of Brown Nanuth HP: 37/42 Status Effect: Painful 0/1 XP: Target Accuracy: 2 Flame Length: 3 (+2 to be added after Threadfall) General Stamina: 4 General Agility: 2 Between Accuracy: 3 Pain Resilience: 3 Instinct: 2 Luck: 2 (+1 to be added after Threadfall)
Zamistia and Nanuth had continued to fight through the rest of the hour, doing the best they could. When it was time for the second wave, the weyrleader's speech again gave them some courage. That and knowing they were going down into the low altitude, hopefully they could catch a break. So with the rest of Burning Aces, they blinked between and down below. However, the catching a break seemed to be short lived as a little clump hit them and sent them back Between. When they returned to their position, both members of the pair was still in pain.
When this is over, we are going to enjoy some peace and quiet,Nanuth huffed in annoyance.
First Wave Rolls
Hour 1, Round one (High Altitude) 1. 9) The wind is strong and trying hard to buffet you. If brown or bronze you see one of your wingmates struggling against the wind. They're getting blown out of their empty airspace, and dangerously close to a patch of Thread! You are able to twist and accurately flame down the clump they were going to fly into, saving them from Threadscore! Quote a Wingmate that took Threadfall Damage and nullify it! You saved them from the pain! +1 Flame Length (used save for Meep's Dob) 2. 1) Blasted all! As you jump Between to avoid a clump of Thread, the winds change, and when you appear from the icey depths, it's right into a major sheet of Thread! Heavy Damage: -8 HP! They also now suffer a Painful status for the next 3 turns. This will negate any XP gained, and cause double damage if the prompt includes damage (or has you roll for damage). 3. 14) The thread is thick and coming down fast. Unlike the lower wings, you don't have to chase this Thread around -- it's just about everywhere you turn! This is what your dragon was made for, this is what you, as a rider, were meant to do. Burn down those Threads so they are no longer a threat to your wingmates and the people of Pern! Your dragon flames a patch ahead of them, clearing some airspace for your wingmates below. +1 Flame Length (negated by painful effect) 4. 18 ) Are you feeling lucky? Well you should! Free reply! Respond to this post with any action pertaining to Threadfall, and gain a little luck. [+1 Luck] (negated by painful effect) 5. 16) The wind picks up, and you fight to keep in formation. Your wings strain, but you're able to keep your place! Though your muscles ache, you're not going to give up so easily. Pern depends on you! +2 Stamina (negated by painful effect)
Hour 1, Round 2 (High Altitude) 1. 18 ) Are you feeling lucky? Well you should! Free reply! Respond to this post with any action pertaining to Threadfall, and gain a little luck. [+1 Luck] 2. 5) The air is thick with Thread. It's at its heaviest up here, and you are literally surrounded by silver tendrils. You roar defiance before spitting forth a great flame, scorching the deadly threads before you with ease. Flame Length +1 3. 2) A clump of Thread falls right before you! Unfortunately, the wind pushes you and the Thread away from one another. With determination, you fight the wind, trying valiantly to get to the great enemy! You hop Between, hoping to get closer, and flame the Threads that threaten to fall through! Roll a D4 to see if you successfully Between! -1 Failure! You Between right INTO the clump! Too close, too close!! Ouch! Damage is Moderate! -5 HP 4. 7) This is such a mess! Thread is everywhere. The High Altitude Wing is always in the thick of it, and today is no exception.
If you are a bronze, brown, or blue 30' or larger you find yourself getting hit by the wildly blown Thread! Moderate Damage: -6 HP! 5. 13) A large swath of Thread heads your way! Roll a D4 to see what happens! -1 Critical Failure! The wind changes, and you find yourself blown right into the sheet! You hop Between, but miss your mark, and appear directly inside the writhing mass of silver. Major Damage: -10 HP
Hour 2, Round 1 (Mid Altitude) (+5 HP added from Weyrleader during changeover) 1. 12) This is bad. Very bad. One of your wingmates appears out of Between flaming, but instead of catching a nearby target, they catch you instead. Your dragon roars in pain, blinking hastily Between! Just how bad is the damage? Roll a D4! -2 The burn is painful, but you think you'll be okay! Moderate Damage -7 HP. They also now suffer a Painful status for the next 2 turns. This will negate any gained XP, and cause double damage if the prompt includes damage (or has you roll for damage). 2. (healer) 21) 2-35.The healer looks at your wound and gives a shake of their head. The prognosis doesn't look good, but they're determined to patch you up as best they can! Return Request Denied! Regain +5 HP but re-roll from the Healers Grid! You still haven't been given clearance to return! 3. (healer) 97) 90-99. You're in luck! The wound isn't as bad as first feared. They're able to see to you almost immediately, and are able to quickly get you patched up and on your way. The Weyrhealers are effective and quite efficient! You May Return to Your Wing! Full HP Returned if White! +20 HP for Greens! +25 HP for Blues! +30 HP for Browns! +35 HP for Bronzes and Golds! Status Effect Removed! 4. 12) This is bad. Very bad. One of your wingmates appears out of Between flaming, but instead of catching a nearby target, they catch you instead. Your dragon roars in pain, blinking hastily Between! Just how bad is the damage? Roll a D4! - 3 If you're a green, or blue, you hastily weave out of the way. Your wingtips are a little singed, but you make it out without issue! Thank goodness you're so agile! If you're a brown or bronze, take Moderate Damage -4 HP.. A little crispy, but you can carry on the fight. 5. 11) The wind is rough, but you and your dragon are managing. You get a breather as your dragon flies into a small break of Threadfall. The upper altitudes must be doing a good job sweeping up!
Hour 2, Round 2 (Mid Altitude) (no rolls done for this day, since I was off computer)
Second Wave Rolls
Hour 3, Round 1 (Low Altitude) (+5HP from Weyrleader, but taking into account the wingsecond roll, adding +4) 1. 7) Oh no, look out! A small clump of thread broke through the ranks, and has managed to hit your and your dragon. It is an ugly tangle, and though you blink between, it's going to hurt! [Moderate Damage -5 HP. You are now flying with a Painful status effect. This will negate your next immediate rolls XP and double damage if the roll includes set damage (or has you roll for damage). 2. 3. 4. 5.

The little green heaved out a sigh and beat her wings roughly to stay in place as she zipped and dodged around, flaming down thread despite the pain she was in.

Dipping and dodging around, Leucath started to laugh just a little bit and sailed over to save a wingmate, blasting a sheet away from them and flying over to char up some strands that were risking another. She was actually getting going finally and there seemed to be no more pain!
