The theme of this clutch is Sins. Post with your guesses as to which egg corresponds with which sin. Those who get the most correct will be rewarded! (Of course, if a billion people get the same "most" right it may have to be a raffle thing).

As a separate betting pool, you can bet on colors.

This will remain open until the day before the Hatching.

In case you've forgotten the eggs...

User Image

Tropical Egg - Brilliantly colored, this is visually the most striking egg in the clutch, although its positioning makes it a bit less obvious than the Effervescent Egg. It is also very different from the other vibrant egg in the feeling one gets touching it. This egg almost gives the impression that it hopes you have something in your hand other than your hand, and the fact that you don't is a little disappointing. It doesn't seem to mind being used as a prop for the Ovate Egg as long as the latter doesn't make a nuisance of itself.
Ovate Egg - Certainly this egg is unremarkable in terms of size, coloration, and everything else that could make it stand out from the other six. You can think that if you want. This egg doesn't care. Being upright is just so much effort for this egg. It is much easier just to lean on the Tropical Egg and let it support both of them. Most people who touch this egg will sense nothing from it, not even polite, pretended passing interest. It really just can't be bothered. It's possible this egg's a dud.
Glowering Egg - At first glance this is just another unremarkable egg on the sands, but it doesn't take too long to notice the malevolent red glaring dully at you from beneath the shadow of its curved sides. This egg is furious and if it had claws or teeth it is a certainty that touching it would mean losing your hand and possibly the torso attached to it. The only exception to this apparently universal hostility is for harpers and those who are harper-trained. At their touch the hatred subsides. This egg may be distancing itself from the rest of its clutch, or the rest of its clutch is avoiding it.
Regal Egg - This is not a small egg, nor is it an easy egg to overlook with its impressive coloration and somewhat central location with in the cluster of the clutch, although it seems pretty content to be so close to the Murky and Shiny Eggs in particular. Touching it produces a sensation that is, quite frankly, unusual to experience when touching an egg unless you have some kind of very strange fetish. Like, no kinkery or anything, but touching this egg will make you feel good. And perhaps a little horny. Don't worry about it, just go with it. Ladies may be a little more strongly affected than men.
Murky Egg - Close to the Shiny Egg, and yet so very far at the same time, the Murky Egg is small and dark and resentful, particularly of the Shiny Egg's, well, shininess. Nevertheless, the two do seem to be nestled closely without any obvious problems. Those candidates who touch this egg first will feel only a sense of reserve from it, as if it is withholding judgment. Those who go first to the Shiny Egg will feel something else, something that sort of resembles indignation and sort of resembles inquisitiveness. It wants to know what the Shiny Egg thought of you. Not the other way around.
Shiny Egg - Nestled a little anxiously with the Murky Egg and the Regal Egg, this smallish egg is still eye-catching when the light from the glows strikes it a certain way since the shell seems to be extra-reflective. Those who touch this egg, perhaps drawn by its shininess, will come away with the feeling that they have been measured, but what the final score is will not become apparent until the day the Shiny Egg's occupant emerges. It is worth mentioning that the Shiny Egg seems a little concerned by the distance between it and the Effervescent Egg, as if it would like to be closer.
Effervescent Egg - At the forefront of the clutch, the largest egg has a sort of coloration that would make most people think girly things. The egg's feminine appearance is pretty much the only feminine thing about it. Touching the egg, you get the idea that something fun and exciting and awesome is about to happen, at least as long as you stick with the Effervescent Egg. There is no way anything can go wrong. You are touching the very best egg, and that means you're no dummy, so you could maybe hang around and watch this really neat trick. Yes. This egg thinks it can do tricks.
