elcome to the world of Pern! I am Imogen, guardian of dragons and I will be your guide into the world of Pern. Pern is a planet on which a book series written by Anne McCaffrey takes place. It is inhabited by humans, dragons, fire-lizards and various other animals. Humans and dragons aren't native to Pern. Humans came from Earth and lived peacefully for a few turns(Pernese word for years). But something tragic happened. The deadly menace known as Thread fell. Thread was an organism that ate everything it came in contact with. It could only be stopped by fire, water, or it could be frozen. It couldn't penetrate rock. But the colonists needed a defense. So, using the genetic codes from fire-lizards, small creatures resembling the mythical Terran dragon, they created the dragons of Pern, creatures that were telepathically linked with their riders and can sear Thread from the sky.
