Here Be Dragons!
The Isle of Wyrms is home to dragons, dragon friends, and admirers. Created by Daryth Kennedy, the Isle of Wyrms is a mystical and wondrous environment that excites the imagination.
The Isle of Wyrms is currently comprised of thirteen sim: Cathedral, Limbo, Lethe, Lyre, Tir na Lir, Tir Infernis, Tir Niva, Tir na Nog, Hedgetopia, Hatchie Haven, Eragon, Eldamar and Imaldris.
Cathedral: This land houses an immense cathedral, containing eggs from which the dragon avatars and dragon familiars may be purchased. Details on the purchase of dragons are provided further below in this notecard. Avatars of hedgehogs, for which Daryth has a soft spot, are also available for purchase here.
Limbo: Limbo is somewhat central to the Isle of Wyrms with many points of interest. The area to the west in Limbo is a multi-level shopping mall that is themed and geared toward humans, dragons, and alternative avatars alike. Need something for your dragon... or your dragon friend? This is the best place to shop for those hard to find items!
To the south east in Limbo is currently an Ice Lake (formally a volcano) at which Dragon socialising events are held. The Drum Circle is held every other Monday at 11:30am SLT and the following Friday at 7:00pm SLT... a party for everyone. Ever seen a dragon dance? Don't miss your chance... come to the Drum Circle. :-)
Limbo also houses the community sandpit. To build on this sandpit you will need to be a member of the IoW Citizens group, please see any IoW Guide, IoW Mentor, IoW Ambassador or IoW Guardian for an invite. A free use Sandpit exists in Eragon.
Eragon: Eragon is a many faceted sim. There are many sights to see, a complex of Dragon Caves, an Australian bar, a shopping mall, a gallery to name but a few. There is also a public sandbox area.
The Wyrm Wyrds story telling circle is held in the sandbox in Eragon on every other Friday at 7:00pm SLT alternating with the drum circle.
Hatchie Haven: Hatchie Haven is a sim designed for hatchlings, hedgehogs and the tiny friends. A place to play, socialise, shop and live. This sim has a tinies orientated shopping area ajoining the main Isle shopping area.
Eldamar, Imaldris, Lethe and Lyre: These are mainly residential area where many dragons and dragon friends make their homes. Stop by and say hi... if the residents aren't busy, they'd be happy to talk to you. Eldamar is also the home of the JRR Tolkien Education Center and Elvenhome Designs. Eldamar also has a shopping area.
Tir na Lir, Tir Infernis, Tir Niva, and Tir na Nog: These lands provide a connection to the Elven lands to the east, as well as providing a residential and work area for some of the Isle of Wyrms' Guardians and Elders, the keepers of our lands.
Hedgetopia: Hedgetopia is a developmental sim for Daryth Kennedy and the High Council to work on new and exciting things for the Isle of Wyrms.
The Dragons
The most famous of the residents of this land are the dragons themselves; artistic creations by Daryth Kennedy. The avatars are available in three sizes: Hatchlings ("baby" dragons, also known as "Hatchies"), Wyrmlings/Wyverlings ("young adult" dragons) and Wyrms ("full adult" dragons). Available for purchase in the simulator Cathedral (north of Limbo), the dragon avatars are available for many species.
Refer to the Dragon Descriptions notecard for more details on each dragon species. There is a dragon to fit every personality!
The Wyrmlings/Wyverling and Hatchlings are always available, while the adult Wyrms are only available at very special times of the year: the Equinoxes and Solstices (4 times a year). A limited number of eggs are made available during these special release events. Their limited population within the realm maintains the grandeur of the adult Wyrms.
Wyrm Releases
Become the dragon of your dreams! The Adult Wyrms are only available at very special times of the year: the Equinoxes and Solstices (4 times a year at the changes of the seasons). A limited number of eggs are made available during these special release events.
The release commences with a pre-registration period of 3 days for members of the Council of Wyrm Hatchlings, Council of Wyrmling, and Isle of Wyrms Citizens groups. This is followed by a one-hour open registration period and the hatching event.
Watch for signs and further instructions around the Isle around the Equinoxs and Solstices for more details.
Note that invitations to the Isle of Wyrms Citizens Group will be closed during this time. If you wish to join the group please do so prior to the signup period.
For those who don't want to wait until a hatching, the Wyrmlings/Wyverlings and Hatchlings can be purchased at any time! Purchase of any of Daryth's avatars comes with membership in a Council specific to that avatar. The dragon avatars are all copy and mod, allowing each owner the ability to create their own unique dragon identity using the purchased dragon avatar as a starting template. Current prices are L$3500 for a Wyrm, L$2200 for a Wyrmling/Wyverling, and L$650 for a Hatchling.
Come visit us... everyone is welcome! Be prepared, though... you may not want to leave. :-)
