Have The Egg Eaters Met Any Other Egg Eating Clans? (If They Ever Met My Clan They Would Probably Be

Have the egg eaters met any other egg eating clans? (If they ever met my clan they would probably be surprised about all of them being egg eaters)

Something's fishy in the Arcane Discord (not that I've ever been)

This begs the question-

Elemental eggs are all seen to be rather......... delicate. Perhaps with a few exceptions, like ice and earth. But how is a Noc egg opened? On the subject of hard to open eggs, due to the way the were released, are the "unhatched banescale eggs" a rarity? Would they cause something different or new considering?

Noc Eggs seem to be covered in plates, so they'd have to be pried open with a tool.

Oh, I assume they'd be extremely rare! Having the influence of their parents' ancient protection spell(their song) could have changed the Banescale eggs raw magic in some way. Perhaps this influence is even present in all future generations' magic as well, and is simply a part of them.

I imagine this protection enchantment is strongest within the eggs, making it nearly impossible for any dragon to harm them ( example: the egg doing unexplainable things at opportune moments, like disappearing if an Egg Eater is searching for it, or the shell becoming momentarily indestructible to prevent intentional breakage). With this in mind, the results of eating a banescale egg have yet to be discovered.

One lil shit obsessed with eggs, at your service!

you’re telling me NO ONE has ever at least tried to eat an ice egg

Guess who's back with another infected with the egg eating bug? Shroud is apparently very convincing as he got his bestie, who's a normal SD, to monch eggs. Said bestie is named Striver. The two work together to feed their lord's power, with Shroud terrorizing sleeping parents, then Striver brining those nightmares to life.

It's not obvious in this picture, but he has glow eyes. I'm not sure what kind of powers he got from the egg monching, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

Hypergryph:

Sorry for the delay, I've been spending time with my Mom, as she's been teaching me how to cook all her wonderful recipes. Been a bit preoccupied with cherry turnovers, onigiri, and enchiladas!

I read the short story in Striver's bio, and have to say it was riveting! How you incorporated the taste of the nature eggs was a fun callback to the flavor post! There's also a line in there that's food for thought. It's about losing 'humanity'. Do dragons have 'humanity' in the form that us humans do, or are there key differences? I always assumed that dragons were simply 'more' than humans, physically, mentally, and spiritually, so does that mean they are complex in ways we could never hope to be? Idk, but it's certainly something to chew on!

Striver is also extremely beautiful in his design and color! His blue-purple-red palette is broken up by his skin/ outfit in a way that makes him seem ornate. Also his glowy eyes are pretty neat^^

Unlike those that are drawn to egg eating by their own selfish desires, those that are tricked or goaded into egg eating are also victims themselves(though still not absolved of wrongdoing!). I wish him redemption, and reprieve from shroud's evil influence. Awesome submission!

Have you read the book series Cradle at all? I ask because I had a strange thought regarding the magic types of eggs vs dragons-- The main character of the series (at least as far as I've gotten) has a condition that made the magic in his body remain pure, as opposed to other people developing "proper" magic of certian elements.

If this were to happen to a dragon-- somehow keeping the untainted egg magic after hatching/into adulthood, would they be uh. A giant target?

I haven't, though reading about Lindon's soul condition definitely puts it on my 'to-read' list. I'm reading Wings of Fire at the moment as per recommendation, and always love getting book suggestions^^

Hmm...That's an interesting question. While Khoga knows about the raw elemental energies, she would still have to find a way to extract it from a living dragon(pretty difficult!). This means holding a dragon prisoner while on the run(also pretty difficult!). That would greatly risk their cover, but if there was reason to believe this 'raw magic' dragon could provide infinite raw energy, Khoga would pitch the idea to capture them.

Matthias wouldn't like the idea one bit, though. Funnily enough, he'd actually feel threatened to the point of jealousy!

Awesome question, and thank you for bringing Cradle to my attention!

Character Portrait for the Webcomic! I thought a series of these would look cool at the beginning of the chapter, sort of a character index type deal. ^^ What do you guys think?
