 Some potential concepts:
 * '''Craftrider''': With the Interval in full swing, surely there's no reason why a person can't be a dragonrider ''and'' a crafter; do you have ambitions to combine the two?
 * '''Dress to Impress''': Irianke's known to be a clotheshorse and Farideh's not much better (worse?); for a weaver with ambition, it could be an ideal posting to try and build a clientele with name recognition.

 Although High Reaches' Craft Complex is no longer the brand new, top-of-the-line facility it once was, it still has more space - and better facilities - than those held at many Weyrs. As such, High Reaches isn't the worst place to end up as a crafter.

 == Overview ==
-HRW welcomes a broad range of characters, from weyrbred to those who see HRW through the lens of their old homes; from older and experienced characters who might relate to the IC powers that be, to ingenues ripe for Search or finding ''different'' ways to make their lives anew. Some have a strong sense of self shaped by their pre-on-camera lives; others want to reinvent themselves upon coming to the Weyr; still more may be malleable enough to be too-easily molded by others. Characters here may have strong beliefs about what's Right and Wrong (whether about morality or types of beer) or be free-spirited live-and-let-live within the regimented Weyr structure; they may have vices that can harm them and those around them, from drinking to gossip to more individual compulsions; they may act from emotion or logic or alternate worldviews. They may be traditionalists, or plan to make the most of Interval freedoms. They may, when push comes to shove, shape their corner of the world.

-Character concepts were once utilised by High Reaches to differentiate between characters who were designed to add specific color to the Weyr and those who play more typically. However, we believe that all characters if created with a solid background and personality are concept characters, so have modified this section to list concepts we already know we would like to see complement the various personalities of our Weyr. We welcome characters with specific plot arcs that may limit the on-camera life of the character, as well as those whose concepts are more open ended.

-== Background Concepts: ==
-−
-* Characters who have been recruited (or would be interested in being recruited) by the more traditionalist movement, determined to remind the Holds of the importance of the Weyr.
-* Characters with strong opinions on (relatively) recent issues, including: brownriding Weyrleaders (particularly female ones), Aishani's Vijay past, Azaylia's apparent indecisiveness, Iolene's lies, K'del's complicity in Iolene's lies, Aishani's complicity in Iolene's lies... and so on. Some may be new transfers, while others may have lived at HRW for a very long time.
-* Characters who came to the Weyr as refugees during the upheaval after Lord Ustelan's death, and have stayed for reasons of their own.
-* Characters with ties to Nabol Hold or its environs. These characters might have strong opinions on the Weyr's involvement in Nabolese issues, positive or negative. They might support Tevrane's rule, or continue to have reservations.
-* Characters with ties to High Reaches Hold or its environs. These characters might have opinions on the Weyr based on earlier dealings over the meteors; they may also have opinions on more recent matters. Can an Exile Lord be trusted? Did Braeden do a terrible thing in stepping down? Should relations between Weyr and Hold be improved, or is it time for a new deal?
-* Characters with ties to Tillek Hold or its environs. These characters might have strong opinions on the Weyr based on HRW's failure to find Lady Edeline's son and heir, and on the shock Impression of Edeline's replacement heir. Some may have ended up at the Weyr after being rescued from the storm of Turn 36.
-* Characters with ties to Crom Hold or its environs. These characters might have strong opinions on the Weyr based on a long history of antagonism.
-* Crafters of all kinds, either longtime Weyr residents or those newly posted. All crafters with a reason for being posted to the Weyr are welcome.
-−
-== General Character Ideas ==
-−
-* Weyrbred characters;
-* Extroverted, gregarious characters who find it easy to interact with everyone;
-* Older characters;
-* Characters with strong beliefs about what’s Right and Wrong, although what falls into those categories could vary wildly and involve anything from morality to types of beer;
-* Characters with vices that sometimes harm them and those around them, from drinking to gambling to more individual compulsions;
-* Jaded, damaged characters who don't always react positively/logically;
-* Characters with a strong sense of self, shaped by their life prior to coming on camera;
-* Characters who want to shape their corner of the world;
-* Characters who attempt to reinvent themselves upon coming to the weyr;
-* Crafters who might accept search in the hopes of continuing in their craft after Impression as a craftrider;
-* Characters beyond Search age who stood and never Impressed, or were never Searched, or simply had no interest in Search, and are now doing other things with their lives;
-* Characters (riders or potential riders) who have specific plans for making the most of the freedoms available to Interval riders.
-−
-== Specific Characters: ==
-−
-* An ambitious older female rider annoyed by perceived sexism (you-have-two-female-wingleaders-big-deal-AND-hated-on-your-female-acting-weyrleader).
-* A cynical older male rider who likes to make trouble/waves.
-* An ambitious, Journeyman-level crafter seeking to gain influence within the Weyr using any means necessary.
