      Brown because I’ve only read one Pern book and the only character I liked was a Brown rider.

      I want something else to get me through this
      Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
      I want something else, I'm not listening when you say good-bye

        @farfalla Well, obviously I’m uninformed then! But: examining the use of color hierarchy in general (or at all). ~I say right after choosing Gold.

          I know nothing about Pern, but Wikipedia makes blues sound relatable. Makes me want to write one of those silly animal poems that were popular a few years ago.

          My naym is draggo,
          My scales are blue.
          My frens burn Threds
          So I does too.

          Tho I am smol,
          My gay is not!

          That gurls are hot.

            Blue is second best. They’re just cute.

            as previously stated, good day.

                          Gold. Same reasons as Herja.

                            I read the books but never RPed. I feel like I missed out. 😞

                                green green green, always a green, I played so many greens

                                Was going to get a gold once, quit the game like 3 weeks before it happened /shakesfist

                                If I played pern NOW…

                                either a non-rider (prolly a Harper) or…

                                Another green. Because duck responsibility and duck the weirdass popularity contests around gold, no thanks.

                                    I just want a tl;dr of what dragon colors and styles mean, since I haven’t read any Pern books.

                                      Gold (F) - only women riders. Female leaders.
                                      Bronze (M) - only men. Male leaders.
                                      Brown (M) - only men in the books, any in games.
                                      Blue (M) - only men in the books, any in games.
                                      Green (F) - was only men in the books, then some women. Any in games.

                                      Gold is biggest, down in order through green. In the books, that’s kind of the order of importance, too. Not in games, though.

                                      Only Gold lay eggs, but Green and Gold both have mating flights regularly.

                                      There isn’t really any technical difference between them as far as personality but there are a lot of stereotypes.

                                      as previously stated, good day.

                                          Brown.

                                          Because I’d play this again.

                                            That might’ve been me (PuppyBreath)! I’d posted about my post-apoc Pern idea, but I gave up on it because of, uh, real virus things happening. And never came up with another reason for post-apoc.

                                            As for dragon color, usually bronze or green depending on if I want to be macho queer or chaos gay.
