gaia_star [ Quest 15: ] EGGSTRATION: THE FINALE Requirement: Every person in the party attempting this must have a wyvern egg.
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 [i 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!
Rarity: Rare Size: 25 feet long (baby snek!) Weight capacity: 2 people max. (No mount/natural forms it gets skittish) Special ability: Is excellent at making impromptu bridges and shelter from cold areas. Sheds rainbow-coloured skin that can be used as waterproof wear. Has impeccable memory - as long as it has been to a place, it knows how to get there. Flying: Cannot fly. Teleportation: Teleports from Miasma Village to Halloween Town only (and vice versa) Temper: Extremely shy. Does not go indoors. Only likes large areas. Will escape through any given opening if the area is smaller than it is.

Having bested mountain #1 and mountain #2, Maddie was sure she could take on pretty much anything now. Even BIGGER mountain with more aggressive creatures and giant rolling boulders? BRING IT ON. While she was a little sad at the thought of losing her hard-earned Wyvern egg, it was all for the greater good. A giant snake egg was probably TEN TIMES as big, and even tastier! Just the thought of sinking her teeth into it made Maddie's mouth water. Delicious giant egg....
Well, enough thinking. It was time to act! Making sure the egg was secure in her sweater pouch, Maddie began her ascent. Claws dug deep into the mountain side, and with a determined look on her face, the little bear ghoul started climbing the mountain. Each step of the way was perilous, as a single slip-up could mean her falling to her death... dissipation, but Maddie didn't give up. Eyes on the prize, eyes on the prize...
Falling rocks, boulders, Maddie did her best to dodge them. Aggressive minis were a little harder, but Maddie managed to fend them off. However, climbing and batting away curious critters meant one less arm for climbing, and as a result, Maddie nearly dropped her egg. It had slipped from her sweater pouch at the same time a large snake lunged at her, and she had to let go in order to catch the egg.
A few scrapes and bruises, but she managed to dig a claw back into the mountain side before she or the egg met a grisly end.
HP: 20/30

It was time to start the ascent again, but in her haste, Maddie ended up dropping her egg. Drat! Guess she had to start all over again...

New egg in hand, Maddie began her ascent again, keeping an eye out for any pesky creatures. She wasn't going to drop this egg again!
Thankfully, she didn't drop it, but she did run into a nasty bit of trouble. A giant floaty cloud didn't seem all that dangerous, but the moment she stuck her head into it, Maddie felt woozy. It took every bit of strength to not let go and plummet to the ground.

Even with all these dumb things in the way, Maddie had no intention of giving up. Nope, she was going to see this to the very end, if it was the last thing she did! She almost dropped the egg again, but managed to save it in the nick of time. Phew!

She DID know how to feel about this snake, and it was an unpleasant feeling. As much as she wanted to kick or punch the snake, that wasn't what she was here for. Remember the giant egg, remember the giant egg...
Doing her best to be quiet, Maddie managed to swap the eggs.
