There was one prize that was a free-for-all, meaning that everyone that found it received it, and it didn't count against your total of 3.

Unfortunately, there were a few late-comers that were only able to find the most readily-spotted eggs, which had all been claimed. So there are a few of you that submitted eggs but didn't end up with any prizes. Sorry! Such is the way of the hunt.

Please do not put your prizes in your sigs / inventories yourself. I will do this, and hope to have it done by tomorrow.



Prizes

Dragon Globe
This clouded, egg-sized globe first appears to be a small crystal ball, but when looking deep into its center, a dragon can be seen lurking inside. The dragon can be summoned out of the globe by rubbing the globe. The dragon has a long, snake-like body, several legs along the body, and swims through the air with grace. It can communicate with you using telepathy so you can speak without having to know the Draconic language. It may fight for you if asked to do so, and it may use either an ice, fire, poison, water, or holy breath weapon at will, but generally sticks to the breath weapon that best matches its master's own element. Sometimes, in incredibly rare times of dire need, the dragon will emerge from the globe on its own and heal or save its master.

Stash of Gold
100 gold in a small leather pouch.
Special: 1 for everyone that finds it.

user posted image
Temperate Mantle
This cloak will keep you warm in even the chilliest conditions. It also gives its wearer the Create Spark spell so that one can easily start small fires.

user posted image
Elixir of Regrowth
This potion will regrow any one part of the body which has been severed once drunk. The regrowing process lasts up to a week and is an extremely painful experience. This potion is only useable once, so after it is used you need to post in the sales counter to have it removed from your inventory for record-keeping's sake.

Set of Pitons
A piton is a mithril climbing knife, designed to allow one to jab the blade through even the toughest walls and climbing obstacles. If you have the Expert Climb feat, you can then use these pitons to scale sheer walls.

user posted image
Lynx
The Lynx is an elusive, ghost-like animal, resembling a breed of large cat, that sees without being seen. Often called "the keeper of secrets of the forest", its magical appearance stems from the mystery that such a creature's shyness can also be its strength. Cunning, solitary hunters, lynxes have large eyes and a keen sense of hearing which enables them to hunt at night. A lynx may guide the listener to a secret, whether it be a lost object or a hidden truth that is somehow relevant at the present time.

Lamp of Day's End
Within this lantern is captured the light of the recent sunset for the duration of the night. If it was overcast and there was no sunset, the light will be weaker.

user posted image
Roc Feather
A feather from a legendary roc. Keeping this feather on your person will prevent you from suffering the effects of any type of petrification.

user posted image
Sulfur Oil
This oil keeps your torches burning brightly and is highly flammable, but gives off the faint smell of eggs. Burns blue on contact and its fire can only be extinguished when the oil is frozen or dissipates. Can keep a fire burning up to 30 minutes.

user posted image
Soothing Lute
Anyone is able to pick up this enchanted lute and play like a master. The properly woven song will put people to sleep after about two minutes, with relaxation and cessations of violence happening upon hearing the first notes.

user posted image
Lotus Brooch of Life's Guard
A holy amulet blessed by the Goddess of Life. This brooch, when worn, helps to guard the wearer's life force, granting them strong resistance to killing spells such as Death. Does not grant invulnerability.

user posted image
Drow Bastard Sword
An enormous sword measuring almost 50 inches in length. When used under the cover of darkness, the sword feels nearly weightless, allowing the wielder to swing it with devastating force without expending much effort, as though blessed with the Cleave feat. It retains its crushing weight, but simply feels as light as a feather in the wielder's hands. When the blade is touched by even the slightest hint of sunlight, it loses these enchantments and becomes incredibly heavy, nearly impossible to wield or even carry.

user posted image
Wizard's Cap
This seemingly silly, pointed cap holds many secrets for its owner. Though at first it appears to be nothing more than an old, out of style hat, once the wearer places it upon their head they discover that it prefers to be called a cone. Indeed, this Wizard's cone is a sentient being, able to communicate with its wearer. The most useful advantage of this is that the cap knows many spells and likes to whisper them to you to help you when casting. However, the cone happens to think that it is much smarter than you are, and constantly reminds you of what a foolish, weak, pathetic mortal you are.

Fire-Hardened Fighting Sticks
This pair of fighting sticks were tempered by fire in their making, so they aren't susceptible to damage by a normal blade. Their hardened surface, combined with enough force, is enough to break bone if you have the Cleave feat.

Roulette Bomb
This 10-sided dice is a coveted treasure. It is a multi-functional bomb, with each side of the dice representing a different type of explosion that ranges 25 feet in all directions when not filling the whole room. Roll this dice into a crowded room and wait for the surprise effects! The effects depend on which side lands face up after it stops moving, and are as follows:
  1. Fire - Thin arcs of flame shoot out, one striking each person in range.
  2. Lightning - Small bolts of lightning shoot out, one striking each person in range.
  3. Fog - The entire room quickly fills with a harmless fog that clouds all vision.
  4. Smoke - The room quickly fills with a burning smoke that stings the eyes and makes everyone cough.
  5. Shadows - A globe of darkness fills the entire range around the dice.
  6. Light - Bright light shines out, blinding anyone within range.
  7. Poison Cloud - A poisonous fog quickly fills the air within range. This poison will temporarily make each person fully affected feel feverish and week for 24 hours.
  8. Star Burst - Much like a firecracker, starbursts shoot out of the dice making incredible noise and flashing lights. Makes for an excellent distraction.
  9. Sleeping Gas - An odorless, colorless sleeping gas puts anyone within range to sleep withing 60 seconds.
  10. Mud Splatter - The dud effect. Mud shoots out and splatters everyone in range, which is not particularly helpful to anyone.

Hey, um, with prizes, do we RP that the character gets them or do they magically appear in their inventory?

Obsidian Nocturne - March 24, 2008 07:03 PM (GMT)

Lothlómendil - March 24, 2008 07:04 PM (GMT)
You can choose whichever method you wish for explaining them IC. ^_^ It's not something we monitor.

[edit]
