The Silky Seaweed Egg



Compared to the other eggs in this clutch this one seems quite plain, which isn't really fair considering it is very beautiful in it's own right. It's just outshone a bit by those 'flashy' eggs. The Silky Seaweed egg is a beautiful blue of swirling water. It looks like no water you will have ever seen but you can imagine it really existing. But pretty flowing water isn't this egg's only draw, it's also covered in seaweed. This egg is another of those which has one of those weird optical illusions in that the seaweed seems to protrude from the egg, wrapping around the shell. The seaweed is light green and almost rubbery in appearance. It looks as though it would be springy to the touch, but don't try poking it, Sporia would object and you might loose your fingers.

The No One Can Hear you Scream Egg



At first this egg will seem pretty and quite alluring with it's blends of yellow and orange, but look closer and most will begin to see other things in the egg, creepy things. Some will insist they can see the Flit, growing inside this egg. That is, of course, impossible, but you can see something which looks like a head, and something which looks like a foot. Others will go into great detail about what they can see in this egg, insisting that no Flit can be seen and that 'head' is in fact the Red Star, giving off a powerful aura after sinking into Pern's atmosphere. They will tell you that a beautiful beach scene has been turned into something of horror as the Red Star melts the sun and destroys the land.
Many who look upon this egg will be creeped out so much they'll wish this egg would never hatch.

The Ghosts of the Lamp Egg



Why must Sporia lay such freaky eggs? This one seems to have some sort of monster playing about it's surface. Pinks and blues and just a hint of green make up the colours on this egg but they seem to occur both in patches and quite randomly, producing a mottled effect that almost seems to lay under the image of the monster. Look at that monster long enough and you'll notice that this egg has a sense of humour, as the monster appears to be wearing a hat!
If the surface of this egg wasn't strange enough, it also has to cast off the light in odd ways. No egg should be able to turn take glow or firelight and make it pink or green without being really shiny, which this egg isn't, but it does the job quite well.
Why Sporia insisted on calling this egg the Ghosts of the Lamp Kee'tae will never know. He can figure out the ghosts part, but where's the lamp?

The Fish in a Bowl Egg



That's impossible! There can't be a fish in that egg! A Flit, yes, but not a fish, and you wouldn't be able to see the Flit anyway, so how come there is, quite obviously, a fish in that egg?
This fish isn't one you'll ever be likely to see, for a start fish don't have front facing eyes, and this one just doesn't look like it could be real, it looks more like a child drew it into life.
Not only is there an orange fish in this light blue egg but it also appears to be blowing bubbles. Some can be seen coming from the fish's mouth, and others have gathered at the top of the egg, as they would in real life, except that fish don't actually blow bubbles. Also, at no point can you see the fish fully. No matter how you turn this egg the light is always reflecting off it in such a way as to block the view of the fish, try turning the lights down and it'll be too dark to see. Strange, huh?

The Truth is Out There / The Life on Mars Egg



Ouch! This egg must have been a difficult one to lay. First off it's the biggest out of the Clutch and second it has those sharp edges, or does it? This egg is metallic red in colour, which will lead some to hope it contains something metallic inside, but no Green can give birth to Bronze or Gold and the shell doesn't tell the hide. It's quite a shame that soon this egg will be broken as it's quite a work of art. It looks as though a glass crafter created a red bauble with a mottled effect and gave it to a metal crafter, who sculpted a shape around it, though how they made the metal red is anyone's guess.
For whatever reason, Sporia isn't fond of this egg, perhaps it really was hard to lay.

The Remembering Ball Egg



What is it with Sporia and having eggs that have things inside them? This egg seems to have smoke inside it, which makes no sense whatsoever. Gold bands seem to surround this egg and it really does look like it's made of some special sort of glass. The smoke within doesn't really move, it can't, it's just an illusion, but see it out of the corner of your eye and you'd be forgiven for thinking that the smoke billowed, just a little.
Sporia says that this egg is special. She tells Kee'tae and anyone who will listen that if you hold this egg and have forgotten something, the colour of the smoke will turn red. Unfortunately as Kee'tae is the only one likely to hold this egg apart from the person who eventually claims it, it'll be a hard theory to prove. Either Kee'tae has nothing he's forgotten, or Sporia's is just being weird.

The Prudent Egg



Maybe to some this egg will just look like a piece of amber, but to many this will be the worst egg they have ever seen. For those that survived the erupting of Mount Prudence this egg may bring back bad memories of hot boiling lava and fire destroying all in it's path. Look closely at some of the details in this egg and you can almost see a mountain exploding with fire. You might be able to see rocks flying away in all directions. Lava may be seen to rip through the mountainside and those with the most vivid imaginations will see cots holds burning to ash and people fleeing for their lives.
And yet there will always be those that insist it looks like nothing more than a piece of amber.

The Exploding Wings Flit Egg

What this egg portrays we hope will never come to pass, as it seems as though the sun itself has exploded! Deep reds, oranges and yellows burst forth from a single point. This egg is a super nova in miniature. You would be forgiven for thinking that this egg is burning to the touch, but it is, naturally, only egg warm as it rests by the stove.

Strangely, the particular markings on this egg never appear to be the same twice. You might not notice it the first few times you look, but, after a while, it will come to your attention that something just isn’t right. It really is like this supernova is yet to settle and is still raging.

The Blood and Lightning Flit Egg

Why on all of Pern would a Flit need to lay an egg so huge? Okay, if it was a Gold Flit egg that would be an explanation, but a Green laid this egg, and Green’s can’t have metallics, so why does this egg feel the need to be so large? Its lucky draconic eggs are pliable when first Clutched or poor Trip would have suffered so when laying this egg. Perhaps the Flit in this egg just wants a lot of room to move; one who likes its space. Though, regardless of the rules, there will be some who look upon this egg and hope that a secret Gold is hidden inside.

The surface of this egg portrays an ugly battle still raging, and a cosmic one at that. The surface is like grassy fields of deep green, with dark lightning striking across the sky. A storm rages and darkens the world of this egg, but something terrible has already happened. Blood stains the surface, blood which has dripped, ran, and been smudged by hands unknown.

If the Flit inside is also one for battle is yet to be seen, let’s hope it does not leave as much destruction in its wake as this egg portrays.

The Fields of Love Flit Egg

That can’t be right; surely, there can’t really be hearts on that egg, can there? Yes, it seems there can be hearts on an egg, for that’s what those markings are, no mistake. Spread across the surface, dotted here and there, are hearts in the palest gold, outlined in bright yellow. They sit in a field of luscious grass, smooth and silky to the eye, as if the grass was cloth and not a plant.

But that’s not all; there is something strange about this egg. It is, apparently, see through. Hold your hand behind the egg and you’d swear you could see your fingers moving. But that can’t be right; you’d see the Flit inside. However this little trick works, it’s one illusionists everywhere will want to see.

There must be a Green in this egg, right, there just has to be? A dainty, cute, adorable little green who will spread love across the world, infecting whomever she meets with her kindness and joy. But it may not be. As most know the shell doesn’t tell the hide, or even personality. Inside this beautiful egg could be the most grumpy, snappy, and boisterous Flit you’ve ever seen. So it may be good to enjoy this egg while it lasts, and let it infect you with its smiles.

The Dirty Nebular Flit Egg

Something dark and horrid lurks around this egg. Its deep purple surface is bound tightly with strands of a rotting gold. It looks like a celestial cloud gone bad, like a place where Thread would happily call home until it could suck the life out of a planet. There are even small dots and flakes on the egg. Those with active imaginations will see those dots as frozen Thread, just waiting for the change to feed, and all Pernese know that it doesn’t matter how small a filament is, it can still grow.

But maybe things aren’t as bad as they seem. To some this egg is in fact a dark celestial swirl that is protecting something ever valuable, and its appearance is only to deter those who may try to harm the precious thing inside. This is, of course, the truth, for a precious life resides inside this egg.

Perhaps the Flit inside this egg is simply fearful of any predators that may try to harm it, so has spun itself a web of darkness in the hope that none will want to come near. If so, let’s hope that the Flit is not so afraid upon emerging from its shell.

The Yeah Baby Flit Egg

Yeah Baby! Groovy! And lots of other ecstatic words! Words you never heard before will pop into your head when you see this egg. It’s a compendium of colours smothered with bright flowers. It doesn’t do any tricks, it doesn’t give off any optical illusions, but that doesn’t matter. What the Yeah Baby egg lacks in tricks it makes up for in enthusiasm.

The desire to place this egg on some sort of automatic turning device will be strong. You can’t help but want to see it spin!

Whatever Flit is inside this egg would have to be happy and hyper. The shell may not tell, but you couldn’t live inside that and not be infected by it. Surely colours that strong will leak into the egg and into the Flit inside. Maybe it will come out multi-coloured! That’s probably a hopeless fantasy, but maybe the Flit’s personality will make up for its lack of colours.

The Lights of Night Flit Egg

This egg almost seems to glow. Its surface is polished and dark, like obsidian crafted by the best SmithCrafter on Pern. But no SmithCrafter could add lights to the stone, as this egg has. Bright, shimmering motes drift playfully across this egg, darting about one another in some endless game.

Listen carefully and you can almost hear the motes making noises as they play; chirruping, cwaling noises. But, of course, if you can hear something, it has to be the Dragonet inside, right? The egg itself can’t make noises. But these eggs are always together, so, perhaps it’s not this egg that you can hear, but another that is simply throwing its voice.

Whether it is the Flit in this egg or one of its siblings, it certainly has some strange calls. Sometimes it sounds more like a dolphin than a Fire Lizard.

The Simple Swirls Flit Egg

The Simple Swirls egg is exactly that, simple. With it’s white base and mauve whips that work there way around the egg, this egg draws your eyes to it with it’s single minded…something. And that’s what happens when you look upon this egg, you will find yourself loosing your thoughts to it, as if it is leaching them from your head.

Perhaps the Flit in this egg needs more thoughts for itself. We all know that Flits, like Dragons, can communicate with their minds, perhaps this one can leach thoughts the same way too.

So try not to stare at this egg for too long, lest it whisk your mind away.

If you're interested in getting your hands on one of these Fire Lizards please fill out the following form and post it to the OOC list, or reply to my post on the list, again with the form filled out.

There will be no Flight for this Clutch as Trip was caught by a wild male.

This is a surprise Flit Hatching, you won’t know which colour Flit you have until I send out messages to those that got the eggs. All I will tell you now is that all of the Flits are Green and/or Blue, and that out of the seven eggs, only five will Hatch.

Here is how it will work. You fill out the form below and send it to the OOC list. You need to submit at least one character that you want a Flit egg for, though more will give you a better chance at getting one. You see, in ICly terms, Rowenden will only give out eggs to those that he feels will look after them and take care of the Fire Lizards inside. In RL terms I will look at the persona sheets of those characters you submitted, in order, and see who Rowenden would give eggs to. But that’s not all, I will also be matching the Flits to the Characters.

Each Fire Lizard already has a pre-set colour, name, appearance, and personality (the latter three of which you are free to ignore, however, if you want to make up the name, appearance, and personality yourself, you may be better off waiting for another Clutch to come along). Each Flit also has a picture, drawn by me, of what it will look like when it reaches maturity. Every egg in Trip’s Clutch has already been determined as to if it will Hatch or not and, if it does Hatch, which Flit will hatch out of it, meaning that you don’t get to choose which egg you want. In ICly terms this will work by Rowenden simply going on his gut feeling as to which egg each person should have.

So, if you’re interested, fill out this form;
