Are you ready for chaos? Mayhem? No? WELL GOOD. It is time for the FINAL TEST OF YOUR PROOF AS A VILLAGER EGGSTRACTOR.

- On top of the highest hill through the highest mountain peak is the rarest of eggs, the Giant Snake egg. If you bring this home, then you have proven your worth as the greatest eggstractor of them all.

Step 1: Climb the mountain

- You're already used to this part. Get going! Climb up that mountain and see what you're made of. Oh wait, right, we forgot to mention. The reason why you need a wyvern egg is you have to replace that egg with the Giant Snake Egg you need to get. That way the parent giant snake doesn't notice!

- As you climb the mountain, roll 1d4. Match your dice roll to the result below.

1: You break your wyvern egg! Sorry, you have to obtain another one..
2. You manage to climb with relative ease. Something watches you in the distance.
3. You trip and stumble but save your egg! -10 HP for your character
4. You accidentally stumble into a giant cloud of miasma! Add +5 to your miasma meter.

Step 2: Replacing the egg

Finally you reach the base of the mountain with a 400 foot giant snake guarding its pile of eggs in the center. You must slowly sneak and take the Giant Snake egg, replacing it with the wyvern one. Roll 1d100 to see how quiet you were. If you roll 30 or less, you get eaten. You die and dissipate back to base camp. The good news is you still have your wyvern egg (must start quest again). Otherwise, continue onwards.

Step 3: New egg friend and you

At this point you no longer have your wyvern egg. You only have this Giant Snake Egg. So that means if you destroy your giant snake egg on the way back, you have to obtain a new wyvern egg from the previous eggstraction quest. The giant snake egg has 10 HP.

A pair of very hungry velicoraptor-like creatures seem to have found you and follow the egg hungrily! They have 10 HP. You only need to defeat one to move on (per group!) Every time you or ANYONE in the group rolls double dice (1, 1, 2, 2, etc) you take -2 damage to your egg, otherwise it takes no damage.

At the very end where the base camp is, there is a giant waterfall. You have no choice, you have to jump down! Roll 1d6 to see how much damage your egg takes. Good luck!

If your egg somehow survives, you have DONE IT. Go ahead and collect your prize and drop it off in this thread!

attempt one

West wasn't really listening when this new set of villagers explained what they expected of him here. All he knew was that this mountain was stupidly tall compared to the others, and that there was a snake at its top. He had developed a bit of a hate-on for snakes in this damned town.

"Hey! Snake!" West shouted, four feet from the creature's jaws. It was the last thing he shouted for quite a while.

attempt two

When he got back, the first thing West did was fling his wyvern egg at the side of the mountain. When one of the villagers had the audacity to tell him he needed to get another, West punched him.

attempt three

He didn't want to admit it, but West was starting to get tired. Not tired of climbing mountains—he had been tired of that ages ago. He was tired tired. Lie down and take a nap tired. But he wasn't giving up. He had it on good authority that this third mountain's egg was the last one he had to get, and he was not about to let this place get the better of him. First thing's first. He was going to have to ask someone what he was meat to do and actually listen to their answer this time.

"Hey... uh... you. Hoodie," he said, tapping a villager on its shoulder as it tried to hurry past. "What'do I do here again?"

The figure sighed as if it had explained all of this at least seven times before. "Take your wyvern egg up there. Trade it for a Great Snake egg without getting bitten or thrown off of the mountain or otherwise dissipated. Bring it down here."

"A Great Snake?" West brightened as if he could hear the capitalization. "And I can keep this s**t too?"

"Yes. Sure. Just..." The hooded figure sighed and shooed the boil toward the mountain. "...go."

The climb was at least four thousand times more interesting this time, the feeling of mysterious eyes on his back notwithstanding. West pulled himself up the mountain's side with gusto, too worn out and distracted to trust his wings at this point. When he cleared the peak, he actually stopped to pay attention rather than rushing forward. There was the snake that had slaughtered him the first time he had been up here, and surrounded by its coiling tail was a heap of very large eggs he hadn't previously seen. If he had to guess, he would have said that the one in his hand was a great deal lighter than the one he was meant to steal, but maybe the snake was stupid, trusting in its sense of sight rather than the egg's weight.

Calling up all of the stealthy moves Levi had ever shown him, West crept past the spot where he had been previously smooshed and sidled up next to the snake. Watching its membrane-lidded eyes for any sign of alertness, he nimbly swapped his egg for one of the snake's and hurried away.

The other side of the mountain descended at such a pleasant grade that West wondered why he hadn't been directed to scale it from this angle in the first place. Then he recalled that these villagers were pranky assholes. Right.

He strolled along easily enough for a while, but then the raptors attacked, popping out of nowhere to snarl and swipe at him. West wasn't prepared for them, but he wasted no time striking back, socking one in the side of the head and dazing it.

West made quick work of the creatures, well versed as he was at knocking things out. The egg he carried didn't take any visible damage at all, and he tossed it in the air in celebration as he continued on. Surely he was almost back to where he needed to be, even after taking this roundabout path.

Raptor HP: deceased

He hadn't anticipated the waterfall. West could see the camp just beyond its frothing base, but he had never noticed its existence before, which was hard to believe considering how it dominated the area. He wondered if he could make it around the wall of water, then decided he was too impatient for that. Even though he didn't know how deep the pool at its end was, West jumped, holding the egg close to his chest as he whooped and shouted his way to victory.
