- It seems as if the villagers now want you to collect some more eggs. Those eggs are really delicious you know, and surprisingly enough, get you into the good graces of the villagers quite fast.
- Your character is dropped off at the base of an even taller mountain The goal is to climb the mountain and get the egg. RP climbing it appropriately
- As you near the egg, whatever is following you will try to eat it. Roll 1d6 to see what it is.
1. A sand crab minipet 2. A 100 foot giant snake 3. A baby wyvern 4. A zombie deer minipet 5. A sand whale (estimated 400 feet) 6. A rolling sand lobster minipet
If by any chance a sand whale is the culprit, it automatically eats the egg and you have to try again. Otherwise, rp gathering the egg.
- Now you must carry the egg down the cliffside of the mountain. Roll 1d6 again and see what is trying to push you off the cliff aggressively.
1. A sand crab minipet 2. A 100 foot giant snake 3. A baby wyvern 4. A zombie deer minipet 5. A sand whale (estimated 400 feet) 6. A rolling sand lobster minipet
If the result is a sand lobster, you drop the egg, and have to try again.
- You finally pass the cliffs into the forest region of the mountain. Roll 1d5 to see what tries to block your way.
1. A sand crab minipet 2. A 100 foot giant snake 3. A baby wyvern 4. A zombie deer minipet 5. A sand whale (estimated 400 feet) 6. A rolling sand lobster minipet
If the result is a 100 foot giant snake, it squishes you and you have to try again.
Finally, you make you way past all of that and you get to the base camp. Oh wait, something is waiting for you at base camp! Roll 1d6 again:
1. A sand crab minipet 2. A 100 foot giant snake 3. A baby wyvern 4. A zombie deer minipet 5. A sand whale (estimated 400 feet) 6. A rolling sand lobster minipet
If a baby wyvern shows up, very mean adult wyverns land, reprimand you, and then extract the egg from you before flying away. You don't get an egg. Otherwise, success!
gaia_smilies/icon_star.gif If you successfully get an egg to safety, you get wyvern egg. It is considered a quest item. Add it to your quest item list
After parting with Puella the spider-girl, Rei placed down the egg gently on the cloth-filled box the villager anxiously placed near him.
-but not before glaring with the meanest glare he can manage with his mismatched eyes about why did they tricked him into this. Heck, even there's literally A TON of those eggs piling up there, and even if they're all unfertilized (he heard about it later while grilling the villagers), stealing is bad, especially from a gigantic turtle-shelled cow...
...uh. No, really? He stopped grilling the villagers and asked for a proof. One of the villagers took off and reappears once again few seconds later, a length of rope in his(?) hand and at the end of the rope was...
No, they're not kidding, apparently. On the end of the rope was a dinosaur-looking creature, a mix of ankylosaur and a water buffalo. THESE creates those pile of egg?
The villagers all nodded in unison. One of them returns with what looks like a fried egg atop a familiar-colored shell. QUICK! She(?) gestured Rei to take a bite.
...
"Okay. So what's the next egg on the menu?" Asked the Tsukumogami again after finishing his meal, which taste is beyond compare of any eggs he has tasted before.
What a change of heart. But yes, that's all it takes to change a normal man into a Egg Syndicate member. Once you partake the juicy, gooey egg...
"HAH!" Rei snapped back from the egg-induced euphoria and found himself at the feet of a mountain. This time the mountain is steeper, higher-not to mention LOOKS MORE DANGEROUS than before. Why did he even agrees to do this?
He saw a small note tied to a bag at his feet. Probably rations just like before.
The memo reads "Wyvern Egg."
"Just to be sure, these wasn't from those two, right? RIGHT?" But nobody answers him, of course. Sighing, Rei began climbing the mountain, taking occasional rests to refocus himself in keeping a corporeal form and looking into any signs of brewing trouble. So far so good, since he's taking the steep side of the mountain. Based on the map also drawn behind the memo, he's supposed to get back using the long, but less steep way.
After more than half a day of continuous climbing (thank whatever god here he's already a ghost) Rei finally reached the nesting area. Apparently whatever creatures made their home here is away-he can still see 'leftovers' from a small snack already turned into a pile of poo; the creature should be out hunting now.
Now, for the egg itself...

Helping himself for even larger egg than before, Rei embed the egg into his body and adjusted the plasma thickness around his legs. There.
"I felt like Humpty Dumpty..." He groaned again. But a job is a job...and who knows? Maybe he can taste this egg...
As precaution of any attacks that may break the egg (even if his body 'kinda' protects it at the time), he undo the [Jack] and left the plug hanging. That way he can sense his surroundings better---
*nibble*
"Hmm?"
A small, winged lizard-like creature appears to be hanging from his ankles. It's a baby wyvern, seemingly proud of securing its first prey. "No, I'm not your feed." Rei tried to bow and pull the wyvern away from him, but his current rotund shape prevents that.
*sigh* "Sorry about this, then." He muttered before releasing some electrical discharge against the creature. The baby retreated, surprised, and proceeds to hide behind the pile of eggs.
-wait, if there's a wyvling here, could it be that inside of this egg is already...?
Thinking about that made him a bit concerned, so he [Jack]-ed into the egg-and found it's a fertilized egg, but haven't developed.
"So this pile of eggs are laid at different times, I guess."
Well, there's nothing else to do here. He already gotten the egg...
Oh. There's something else he can do. After the ghost left, there's still a small bag full of rations in the cave.

Roll 2/4 (Autofail:6) Past the cave area and a bit less of altitude was...
A cliff. No, really. A cliff. Should he jump down? There's some small ledges he can probably navigate to get to the forest region. Or should he do a leap of faith, using electrical burst to change vectors few times and lands like a cat with zero down vectors?
Nah, he should do the safer way. There's a chance he'll boil the egg-or even char it inside the shell outright.
Okay, so which ledge was-
BONK.
A familiar feeling of floating suddenly assaults his senses. His feet can't feel the solid ground. The flailing Jack detected something not quite 'alive' at his past location---a zombie deer! "Tch!" Indeed, 'dead' things has nothing to be read by [Jack], so it misses his perception.
But there's no time for considering alternate means of perception-he's---or actually, the egg's falling.
Should he did the dash burst? Nah, sudden deceleration can break the egg faster than acceleration. In that case...
"Telekinesis!" He exerted electrical current, dragging the dead leaves afloat and created a huge stack of them, shaped like a pyramid; between each stacks are pockets of air meant to lessen impact-
*blufh!*
The plan worked-but he used too much power and now some static electricity remained on his clothes, making the leaf from earlier stuck on it. Well, given enough time it'll fall off by itself.
The journey continues.

Roll 3/4 (Autofail:2) Past the cliffs are the forest area-well duh, he's fallen directly into the midst of it due to some zombie deer headbutt. The dangling plug reacted, warning him of some presence around him. This shape...
"Don't tell me it's those darned sand lobster!?" He looked around and found some holes on the ground. Yep, it is them. Dangit, not now....
-oh wait. Sand lobsters...lobsters are still insect, right? Then-
After some more thinking, he created some floating orbs of electric plasma around him. Yes, this is so-called bug zapper.
As soon as one of those creatures appeared, he sent one orb hurling to it, causing it to reel back in shock. Yep, this is a good way to counter them. Rei proceeds rather easily through the forest area.

After a while of trekking down the gently sloping forest, Rei arrived back at the place he's dropped off by the villagers. There's already a cart prepared with some minis to pull them around---
But there's one final obstacle...

Still, the cart he's riding didn't seem to head into the village. If anything, it looked like it was headed to...an even higher mountain than before.
"Hmm?"
Looking at the package behind the driver seat, there's another piece of paper attached to it. A letter?
"You have proven your worth. We will now hand out a final mission for you to get the rarest egg." He reads the written letters.
Dangit.

Begrudgingly annoyed, slimy and reeked of raw egg, Rei was brought back to the base of the wyverns' nest to grab a new egg.
The job was supposed to be simple. Grab a wyvern egg, carry it to the summit, replace whatever-egg-it-is with the wyvern egg, carry it back to the village, get good eats.
BUT WHY THOSE GOSHDARNED SAND LOBSTERS INSERTED THEIRSELF INTO THE EQUATION AND CAUSES GRIEF SO MUCH!?
There's no time left for groveling about. Changing the plasma from inert to crackling with heat, Rei cooked whatever egg liquid still sticking to his clothes and charred it.
REVENGE.

As he entered the nest, the very same baby wyvern again clamped its jaws on his ankle. "Now's not the time to do that, junior. I'm pissed." Rei gently reprimanded the action by again shocking the juvenile reptile back to the pile of eggs.
He picked the smallest egg. Hey, if he want to do this again might as well do it the smart way!

Roll 2/4 As he descended to the cliff, a horde of sand crabs appears suddenly from beneath the ground, raising their claws menacingly.
"DIE." He said simply, releasing small currents of electricity to the cloudy skies above, creating a path for lightning to strike. One flash latter, and the crabs are thoroughly baked to crisp.

Roll 3/4 Past halfway down to the cart, a small blue shadow seems to be tailing him. From the shape it's probably an older-but not that much older version of the bay wyvern at the cave.
The creature raises its tail, ready to pounce-only to be mid-air-canceled by a sparking plasma ball right into its face.

Roll 4/4 He almost reached the cart; what's left is one final stretch of a vast, flat lands of gravel and sand.
When suddenly a large sand whale suddenly resurfaced for air. Its small, beady eyes are set at the egg he's carrying.
"-oh no you don't." He picked up some iron-containing rock and baked it using electromagnetic induction, heating it to the point the rock started to glow red. As the sand whale opened its mouth, ready to swallow the egg, Rei and all he lobs the heated stone into the open mouth-
The result was clear, the whale instantly roared in pain and reeled back. Safe return path was now ensured for him.
And now, for the mission.
