TURTLE EGGS | Update #2

[cherrywood]

In the natural rhythms of arrivals and departures from Tu Vishan, some of the unhatched turtle eggs recovered from Sinbrilee are now missing some of their stand-in mamas and papas. Having grown used to the reassurance of their caretakers, the baby turtles will once again seek out a psychic connection among the Foreigners.

From the original event post:

The eggs will 'resonate' when they are near their caretaker and the caretaker will feel compelled to seek it out. When they are near, the shell will become luminous and a peaceful feeling will come over those characters specifically chosen by their turtle [...] Care of the eggs can be largely hand waved if you choose, they will be hatching roughly around December.

Based on current list we are in need of 5 6 new egg parents! Results with be randomized so even if there are already six people, please consider signing up! These egg parents will become baby turtle caretakers after the hatching later this month, so it's a fun ongoing angle to play out.

As always we ask that this be limited to one character per player to allow for the most people to be able to participate in this ongoing plot. It's a great way to jump start CR and interact with other characters by sharing egg warming tips, shell decorating ideas and baby turtle food recipes... or something like that.

Selection of the SIX currently available spots will happen on Friday, December 13th @ 9:00PM EST Sunday, December 15th @ 9:00PM EST though signups to this post will remain open, so that as people are dropped new parents can be selected from the existing signups. (This post will be bumped periodically so long as the plot is active.) Remember this is open to newly accepted characters as well, just snag the sign up and comment to this post:

NOTE: Everyone who had an egg previously still has one, unless they've dropped in the interim. The gdoc is HERE for reference.

[guiltapalooza]

Kind of an odd question, but would it be possible to switch out my current character signed up for this (Bruce) with my other one (Willow)? She needs things to do more than he does.

If not, that's totally okay!

[cherrywood]

Unfortunately since the eggs choose their caretakers, only that person's disappearance would break the bond. Sorry!

[guiltapalooza]

Oh, that makes sense! Thank you! :)
