Frozen Egg
Name: unnamed
Species: Vernox Dragon
Birthday: Sunday, April 5, 2015
Owner: sweepo
Element: Life
The colors on this egg are actually layers of a sweet, edible coating, carefully built up and deposited by the adults so that their young will have a ready meal upon first hatching.
Vernox dragons discovered themselves; one fine spring dawn they turned up at the Keep via the eastern sarvain tunnel complexes, carrying lots of their own eggs and presenting them proudly to various magi, who subsequently found themselves adopted by these curious vaguely rabbit-like dragons. Friendly and sociable, these dragons have great magic with eggs of all species, and are an enormous boon to magi who are on nest hunts. Their whiskers somehow sense the proximity to viable clutches, and although they are always side-tracked by the alluring prospect of dismot nests, they can be trained to seek out eggs of any species the magi wishes. They spend most of their time tunnelling beneath the Keep, locating all the nests in the vicinity.
