  This is the main thread of the Easter Event and where you can post any eggs that you have won. Posting here isn’t mandatory and you’ll still have the egg even if you don’t, but it’d make it easier for us to remember who gets what if they’re all here. There will be an rped hatching for those that want it, so if you don’t want to be part of that then please say so here and you’ll receive your firelizard when the hatching is over. You’re welcome to roleplay in this thread as your character returning their egg to the clutchmother and speaking with other characters if you want. No eggs can be found in this thread, but the How To Play and Rules will be listed here for convenience. This game will run for a week and then a hatching will commence. Any unclaimed eggs that might be left will be entered into a raffle which will be free to all, members or no, along with the four eggs shown above.

How To PlayEach area has a set number of eggs in it; these eggs are shown in the opening post of each area. A player can have as many characters in each area as they like, but each character can only be in one area at a time. To try and find an egg roll a ten sided dice, 9 or 10 is successful in finding an egg. Now you can gain bonuses by working together. If multiple players’ characters interact and are shown to be helping each other, each player gets +1 to their roll for every other player helping them. That’s player, not character. Players who have already found an egg can still roleplay helping others and give them bonuses, but cannot keep rolling for a second egg. If you are successful in your roll, pick which egg you would like from the top of the page and state it in your post. What your character does with the egg after finding it is up to them, they can return it to the fair or sneak off with it to keep it for themselves. Quote: ExamplesRocellia rolls a 5. Nobody wants to help her, so she doesn’t find an egg. Better luck next time. Dizzian rolls a 7. She’s being helped by R’yn and Ashlyn, which gives her +2, making her score 9. Way to go Dizzian, you found yourself an egg. K’gus rolls a 10 all by himself and wins an egg without any help from anyone. You show ‘em, K’gus. Rules- Each player can only win one egg per area - Only posts with roleplays will be counted - Do not make another roll if you have not filled in the roleplay of previous rolls. - Firelizards impress to the player that found the egg, they cannot be given to other characters or players - No pressuring or harassing other players - ICA = ICC - Have fun

Paige stared wide eyed at the spectacle of firelizards producing eggs from around the dining hall and returning them to the screaming gold. What in the name of Faranth?! Oh! OH! VENNIE! Paige bounced on her bench then stood up, clambering awkwardly away from the table as she rushed to find her dragon.
Paige! What's wrong?! The gold rose to her feet from where she'd been sunning outside. Her wings spread wide and her eyes whirled yellow with alarm.
Firelizards! "Firelizards! There's a whole mess of them in there right now. The gold is screaming and the others are finding eggs hidden around and painted. I think someone stole her eggs but what if they get cold!" The young harper-turned-rider was practically fluttering in her excitement. Her emotions torn between anger at someone who'd endanger the eggs, sympathy for the poor firelizard, amusement at the wonderful prank it was to even paint them!, and excitement as the possibility of finding one herself.
Venaith, once she understood Paige's excited babbling drew herself up tall. Well then we must put all of our efforts into saving them! Overhead a couple flits flew out the door, looked around for a moment, then popped between. They are going to other parts of the weyr... the eggs might not all be in there?
"Let's go to the barracks!" Paige turned and bolted for the complex that housed herself and her fellow weyrlings. Venaith loped easily at her side.

K'star strood in and placed the egg (Egg 21) where the mother could see it on the area prepared for collected eggs. He had passed one girl on the way out but so far no one else was here. He decided to stay a while and see who brought eggs in.

The gold stopped her chittering as a human stood near her. The firelizard's head whipped around and she flared her wings at the newcomer. She would not have them stolen again! The egg in K'star's hands only seemed to fuel her anger, she gave an indignant shriek. There was the thief! When the egg was place down she immediately swooped over, grumbling all the way, and swiftly moved it back to her little group of five. What a peculiar thief to bring her egg back. Well he would not be getting it again.

K'star had to bit back the smile that tried to bloom on his face at the little queen's behaviour, what a spitfire. Typical mum, He thought.
Jedith's eyes whirled happily as the egg was returned. Hopefully more would make it back soon before the babies inside got too cold.
"Should we look for some more mine?"
"I guess so Jedith, no one else seems to be coming in with them, lets go to the hatching sands and put your nose to work."
His dragon chuckled and his rider hopped on to go sift through hot sands. Jedith liked the heat so this was a fun choice for him.

M'bad spotted by on his way back from his weyr to peer inside. It looked like the gold was still throwing her fit. Could she count? Would she noticed that one was missing, or would she even care? M'bad thought of the red and blue egg up in his room. She'd just have to be happy without it. He headed back out to return to the commons and resuming his relaxing.

Paige bounced in in a high state of excitement and ever so carefully, placed the egg she had found infront of the little golden mother. "Here you go! I hope it's ok." With that she backed away quickly, looking around to see who else was there.
"Anyone else have any luck?" She could see a few new eggs, but were they human or firelizard brought?

Snuffling around her eggs the firelizard was carefully digging grooves in the warm sand she had been given and placing her eggs lovingly into them. Perched about the hall a few other firelizards stood watch, she was aware that not all were part of her fair, but their eyes were appreciated in guarding her eggs. There were still far too few. Only five had been found. So many still lost. The gold wanted to go searching, but was hesitant to leave her eggs unguarded should the thief return again.
Chattering above her made a little mother look around, spying another human with an egg. Another thief?! How many had been together to raid her nest? The gold darted forward and rested her foreclaws on the egg, a high growl vibrating in her tiny chest as she dragged the large egg back among the others. That made six, just a fifth of the eggs she had had stolen from her. Others of her fair were still out looking, but who knew if they would all be found in time? She scrutinsed the egg's shell carefully. At least this one seemed to be in good health still.

Paige's cheeks puffed out as she tried not to giggle at the little queen. Oh faranth she was so adorable growling like that! With no answer from any of those around her Paige turned to leave. Lets check the hatching sands. At least they'd be warm there.

Two more girls came in, shortly after one another. Lorend with Foen riding on her shoulder set the egg near the gold. "Returning your lost egg m'lady." She grinned. Spotting the other brightly colored eggs she couldn't help but adding, "you have the most beautiful colored clutch there."
Lathis waited for the other girl to set the egg down and came up as well. "I found this for you. It was on a stone bench, and it might have gotten chilled a bit." She was worried the egg might have taken harm. It was plan a dimglow had put it where they did. Eggs needed warmth right? She smiled at the gold, hoping she could save it.

She had just finished settling everything the way she liked it when yet more humans appeared. This one had a firelizard though and that confused her a little. Another firelizard would not have stolen her egg, but here one was with a human. Maybe he was forcing them to give it back? The egg was placed near her, the same as the others and the gold cautiously pulled it back in with the others. Less than a third of her eggs were with her, but the humans had returned a good few to her nest and her fair were still out searching for the others. The gold looked up at the human speaking to her, she was not bonded and did not understand their speak. The firelizard tilted her head as they kept talking, firelizards could be quite vocal, but this was much harder to understand.
Another appeared and the gold trotted over as the egg was placed down. Many humans were coming and going and she had gotten used to them being placed down for her now. These were very peculiar thieves that was to be sure. She nosed the egg and let out a worried chirrup. So cold. Darting off the gold made great haste of digging a deep pit in her warm sand, quickening back she shifted the egg into the groove and piled the sand back on top of it, before curling her body around it, this one needed a lot of warmth. Where had you been, little one?

Wen walked in and carefully laid his egg on the table for the queen to tend to. "There you go. One more down." He wasn't sure where the rest of the eggs were. Perhaps he should check on Jemi, she should be in the stables... she mentioned wanting to go for a ride before the egg hunt started.

Wen returned once again, carrying a second egg and set number 28 back near its mother.

Jemi walked in, approaching the Queen and set her egg down next to the gold. "Here yah go." she muttered, placing the creamy egg near the flit.
She asked, strolling out.
Irith shifted, nosing her rider.
