HAPPY EARLY EASTER

[ascens]

You didn't Hypatia would miss an opportunity to throw up silly decorations and torment her guests, did you?

Easter Mini-Event

Starting Friday morning, each character will (at your personal discretion), awaken to find mechanical storks bringing them a very special package (or packages, if you want to play Hard Mode). Each bundle contains a large, egg-shaped drone (scaled appropriately to their recipient) with some vague, cartoonish resemblance to the "parent." They babble, coo, burp, and generally act like small children sans limbs. Your job? to care for them.

What's the point?
Hypatia will be scoring everyone with an egg on their level of parenting skill. A live scoreboard will be publicly available via the network for characters to check on their ranking. Prizes will be awarded Saturday night. Players will need to reply to this post with how well their characters do on a scale from 1-100.

What if my character is a bad parent?
If characters go more than 20 feet, or do not interact with their egg within a 20 minute span, the egg will explode in a shower of confetti. Congrats, it's full of candy and chocolate! And a note on how bad you suck at parenting. Additionally, there is no punishment for failing, or terminating your own egg, save for an automatic score of '0.' And the shame.

What do we get for participating?
On an OOC level, this event is completely opt-in. You don't need to have your characters participate. A single credit will be awarded as a base prize to every character who manages to get their egg(s) through 'alive' by Saturday night. There will also be candy.

Character name: Eleanor Lamb
# of eggs: 2
Final score: 95

Eleanor has a lot of 'taking care of things' instincts that have been neglected lately. Plus they looked like little sisters so...overprotective.

Character name: Kasumi Goto
# of eggs: 1
Final score: 100

Kasumi thinks this is the silliest and yet most amusing thing ever and went around annoying everyone she met with her wonderful space ninja egg baby.

Egg playdate, anyone?

Yes this needs to happen. kasumi and Ashley can annoy the rest of the crew.

[notyourutopian]

Yup, pretty much that.
