As you're flying, the wind picks up again, trying to knock you out of formation!
If less than 22 feet, you get blown out of formation, but are agile enough to avoid getting hit with Thread. Hurry now -- better make it back before your Wingleader scolds you!
If 23' to 35', you're able to fight it, but wind up straining a muscle. Whoops. Maybe you over-compensated. -4 HP
If 36'-46', you're able to fight the wind with relative ease. Unfortunately, the nearby Threadfall gets blown into your side and haunches -- and you were too big to move out of the way. Ouch! Moderate Damage -8 HP
It... hurt. The winds all but tackled Auriath out of formation, and even Kito had a hard time resisting the blast. He clung to the straps, hunkering down against his dragon. Poor Auriath had a rough time of it, still hurting from a previous encounter of Thread, more struck his back thigh. He was unable to stop himself from bellowing in pain as he jumped Between, utterly miserable upon re-entry.

Despite the intense pain that now lanced Auriath's body, he was able to flame a piece of Thread with a defiance that buoyed Kito's spirits. There was his shining star.

The pain seemed to recede from the bronze's mind, which was a boon for both dragon and rider. With renewed focus, Auriath seared more Thread from the sky.

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
It was lucky that things seemed to be improving, for Auriath was hitting his stride, flaming left and right as Thread rained down upon his Weyr. Not on my watch!

Thread didn't stand a chance with Auriath and Kito hot on their tracks.

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, negate any saves rolled, and cause double damage if the prompt includes damage (or has you roll for damage).
Despite Lunamichith's ferocity, as they rejoined their Wing, misfortune found them once again. The winds changed against them, blowing Thread right into the green's side, catching her belly and Senara's leg. With a drawn-out scream echoed by both human and dragon, the pair flickered Between.
We are not going back. Fatigued and aggrieved, Luna's voice dripped venom, her usual sunny, cheerful disposition gone. Tears leaked down Sen's face, the wind whipping them away. It was so sharding painful... she would be glad for the rest afterwards, but she agreed with her dragon's sentiment.

Your dragon asks for a few more pieces of firestone to chew. Unfortunately, they wind up chomping down on their tongue instead of their stone! This is going to distract your dragon for the next two rolls. [Tongue Bitten Effect! Your dragon is distracted by pain. No XP will be earned for the next 2 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.]
Things didn't go well for them. Perhaps it was Lunamichith's eagerness to prove herself useful and flame Thread, but she accidentally bit her tongue as her rider handed her more stone. Owww... She complained, trying to shake off the additional pain.

Nothing to flame quite yet, which is almost a miracle in this sort of Threadfall. Still, you're able to relax a moment, look around, and take note of your airspace. All's well... for now.
There was no immediate danger, offering the pair perhaps a little too much time to contemplate their pain. Their shared misery was a bonding experience.

The jump Between was measured, calculated. Senara clung on, hoping against hope that all would be well. That she and Lunamichith would soon be able to rest.
When they reappeared, Thread was upon them.
It snared everything. Lunamichith took them Between, upon instinct, and Senara clung to consciousness to ensure they emerged safely. The air was no longer thick with Thread, but her dragon was not responding to her mental touch, and for once Sen felt very, very alone and uncertain. Life taunted her with brief flashes of memories forgotten. Life before being a rider. Life before Lunamichith had found her. No..
She never wanted to be alone again.
She knew the green still lived- but her body dripped ichor, wounds so deep she scarcely wanted to look. Her own arms and hands bled freely, her face marked where Thread had tried to take hold... And all that awaited them was the fall.
No, Luna... Had she failed? Could she have done better? Did it even matter now?

XP: Target Accuracy: +4 (+5) Flame Length: +4 General Stamina: +6 (+2) General Agility: +4 Between Accuracy: +5 Pain Resilience: +5 (+3) Instinct: +5 Luck: +4
Killakeeth and Vosin had been flaming every little bit of Thread they could find. The pair had a breather for a moment when no thread fell near them. Vosin stretched slightly until she felt her gold stiffen under her and look up. What?Word comes from up high. A rider and dragon are falling.
Shaft! Vosin took a quick glance around, the other golds busy chasing thread. Let's go! Killakeeth took them up with powerful beats of her wings, tracking the unfortunate falling pair as the large gold positioned herself for the catch. The green landed gently across her broad back. Rest easy Senara. Lunamichith will be alright. We will get you into the good hands of the weyr. Killakeeth reassured the rider as she prepped for a jump between to the weyr.
11-25 Your gold flies high, ready to save their fallen wingmate. She positions herself well, with the dragon managing to land comfortably upon her back. Though the adrenaline is still racing through both of you, there's also excitement and ride. You're practically an expert at this catching thing, already! Back to the Weyr with you!

Wingsecond Roll (Hour 3, Round 1)
En'gon and his blue wanted to keep their wingmates safe, so were making sure everyone was alright. Thankfully, he saw danger coming towards one of them just in time to to prevent them from getting hurt. Good, he liked when he was able to help someone out.

25. 24-42. If a Wingleader, you were so focused on chewing out one of your wingriders who pulled a stupid move, that you actually miss catching a large clump of Thread that's falling right past you. A nearby wingmate winds up taking the hit -- as they were busy flaming a different clump of Thread and hadn't time to notice. Quote a Single Wingmate and have them lose -5 HP! If a Wingsecond you actually are on top of things today! You're here to look out for your wingmates and your Wingleader, and in this case, you manage to do both! Quote your Wingleader, fellow Wingsecond, or Wingrider and nullify any negative effects & negative HP from their most recent roll! This can include Wingleader/Wingsecond rolls!

9. As you're fighting Thread, you see your nearby wingmate in danger. You immediately blink between, falling out of formation, but hoping to save them. 1. If any other color, you successfully catch the clump! [+1 Between Accuracy]
T'sar spotted a wingmate in danger and urged Adarith to help. The brown focused on the Thread before the jump Between, and when they appeared he let out a massive spout of fire, bringing the clump down.

Getting back into formation was a struggle thanks to the wind. They should have jumped Between, but ended up going to the cold, dark place a few moments later anyway to rid themselves of some flying Thread.

T'sar adjusted his goggles just in time for a small piece of Thread to whip towards his face. He ducked and Adarith dropped a few feet, seeing the Thread through his rider's eyes.
"That was close," T'sar murmured, thankful his face hadn't been marred. Adarith gave a little huff, knowing his rider was vain beyond all reason.
