Welcome to Gaia! ::

gaia_star [ Quest 8: ] Eggstraction: It Returns!
Requirement: One person in the party must have a herbivore egg.

- 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_star 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

Even at the top though, that didn't mean everything would be easy peasy.
Of course, something would be trying to break, or jack forbid, EAT the egg.
Luckily, Maddie located the egg in time, and shooed the zombie deer mini away. No matter what mutant deer said, DEER WERE DEER, and deer only eat plants. No eggs for you, mister!

Even though she said this, the deer seemed quite intent on eating that egg. Part of her wondered how that deer even died in the first place. Starvation? Food poisoning?? Deer didn't eat anything but leaves and plants and stuff, right? Why would a deer eat an egg?
.... ohhh, maybe because it was a zombie, and since zombies liked brains and stuff, brains = meat? But that still didn't answer how the deer died!

Oh well. that was best left for another time. She had an egg to carry and a mountain to climb down. So long, dead deer!

Finally off the mountain and into the forest, it seemed that zombie deer was persistent on getting the egg.
She wondered if it was related to mutant deer.

"NO MEANS NO!"
She threw a rock at it.
Sheesh, know where you are in the food chain! Maddie wondered if she'd get sick eating the dead deer. So annoying. She was hungry, but she didn't want to dissipate from eating yucky undead wildlife. This egg had better be worth it!
