It was Karlyn who found the four eggs lying on the sands. She saw no mother near the eggs, and she saw no father nearbye protecting the eggs. They were probably a green clutch. Karlyn reached down to grab the four eggs and recieved a shock, they were about to hatch!
Quickly she sent Proud, Waterfall, and Dolor off to find people that they approved of to impress the eggs. One egg she decided to keep for herself. She reached down and took the littlest egg. She already had a lot of flits, and she would let others have the bigger (and probably better) flits.
Smiling, she tenderly cradled her chosen egg. She could feel the little creature inside of it approve of her and prepare to hatch. She leaned down and felt all the eggs. They all wanted her, but she sternly told them no. They felt different but she didn't care. they all agreed to impress someone else. She smiled. It was nice to be able to be able to send ideas with the creatures, it made it much easier for her to do things like have three people to a hatching. She simply created herself as the idea of the mother in their minds.
(OOC: If you are recieving a christmas gift egg, have one of the three flits I named come and get your character...)

C'lyn was brooding. That was, sadly, how the former Weyrleader spent a lot of his time lately. Tirlynna usually managed to cheer him up, but the rainbowrider was nowhere to be found right now.
She had taken to spending a fair bit of time helping the Weyrwoman, which was her right as the rider of a clutching dragon. He was rather glad she was finally accepting that role.
A small puff of air indicated that a firelizard had come out of between. At first, C'lyn ignored it, assuming it was his own blue returning from wherever he had gone.
Chitterchitter!
No. It was Karlyn's Waterfall. His daughter had collected quite the fair. "What is it?"
The image that came into his mind was Karlyn and firelizard eggs. "Like I need another one."
Chitter.
"You aren't going to leave me alone, are you. Let's see if I can rouse Kylith."
Within a few minutes, the big bronze was backwinging to a landing a good distance from the girl and the clutch, not wanting to send sand showering over her.
Four eggs, C'lyn noted. A green clutch, then...likely they were all greens, but there was nothing *wrong* with greens. No sign of the dam even more pointed to it being a green clutch.
Still. Karlyn would never leave him alone if he didn't approach.

Everyone needed to relax sometime, and after giving Tombath his bath was definitely one of those times for Uu’ian, the bronze hadn’t noticeably grown out of his vanity as he reached his maturity, and frequent baths were still on the agenda.
The bronzerider had just flopped down on the sand when his firelizards all took wing at once in reaction to an arriving firelizard. Fury settled on Uu’ian’s shoulders possessively, giving his clutchbrother what could only be described as a Look. Mystery, of course, chattered a babble of greeting to the other firelizard, which left it to Steadfast to give a soft inquiring chirp; what brought the burgundy here? Hatching? Ah. The brown joined Dolor in telling Uu’ian to get moving, and encouraged Mystery and Fury to do the same. Mystery trilled and bounced somehow in midair; what a wonderful idea! Babies were so cute! Fury, however hissed softly and curled his lip up at Dolor; did his really have to go? Fury already had to share with these two.
Uu’ian was already unfolding himself from his sitting position and laughing softly at Mystery, and giving Fury a soft poke. Even Tombath was strongly, if wordlessly, encouraging him to move. ‘Want to show me where burgundy?’ Uu’ian recognised Dolor as one of Fury’s clutchmates, but didn’t know his name. ‘You three bring some food. Hatchlings need food, and I didn’t bring any out with me.’ The bronzerider instructed his own firelizards, Steadfast promptly vanished, Mystery instantly followed, and Fury made a peculiar huffing sound of reluctance before he, too, vanished.
A few minutes later Uu’ian was trotting up the beach, trailed by his firelizards (all bearing food, even Mystery who was notably dim sometimes). It was a bit of a small clutch but some of the eggs looked too big to be greens, maybe a green clutch sired by a bronze, Steadfast had come from a clutch like that. Their origin hardly mattered, what mattered was that they all seemed to be very close to hatching.

(Sorry for the bad post  ) Andol soon found himself distracted a little firelizard that was coming into his room as it sent him images of a hacthing that was now going on down on the beach... He couldn't beleive that someone had found some eggs, and plus he had been meaning to grow his fair quite a bit more than it already was, and knew that getting some new flits was just he way to do it. Form what he had seen in the image, it was more than likely a green clucth, but he didn't care about that at the moment, becuase any flit was better than no flit at all. So he quickly stood up as Leaf and Crystal began to follow after there pet, sinice the green flit and little white wanted to meet there new brother or sister. It was somthing that they where pretty excited about. The young man kept on running and even passed by Uu'ian on the way there and noticed that they where heading in the same direction and said back to him as he ran on, "Come on silly your going to miss the eggs..." Someone was obviously extermally excited about about the whole thing. Which is exactlly what Andol, and it didn't take him long before he was standing before the eggs and looking at them, and he even waved hello to Karlyn once he was there. He then realized that he had forgotten somthing and looked at Leaf who dissapered and quickly reappered with some food for Andol. He was gald that at least someone was on the ball today. |

(OOC: I am going in the order I received requests.)
From the largest egg came a shudder, and then a a little hole was made in which a black flit head poked through. Then a shake, and the entire shell fell apart. This gal was definitly not a green's daughter. Karlyn frowned. She wondered where this flit came from. No gold would purposefully leave her clutch, and no Green would hatch this large a flit.
The flit shook herself off, and moved off in the direction her "mother" was shooing her, towards on of the waiting humans.
Then she found hers, hers was the eager one, the one that needed watching after.
Flit Name: Onyx
Flit Age: Hacthling
Flit Discription: This flit is as black as the night, and can esailly blend in the dark when she wants to. Though her hide is a bit on the shiny side like a wet black snake... When it comes to size no gold can macth her, this gal is probably the biggest flit that there is, sinice she bascially a Ebony though in flit form.
Flit Personaillty: She is differnt than the Ebony dragons, in that she is not mean at all. In fact she is quite motherly and protective towards And'l, like any gold. Though her protectivness is a little bit more on the exterme side than a gold and seemed to remind one of a blood, becuase of how much hissing she does

And'l wacthed with such curiousity as the little black head poked out of the egg that was in fornt of him. Now that was a new color, and he should know better than anyone... his brother was the white rider after all. Yet that was when he noticed the firelizard hacthing out of her egg, and spilling onto the sand, and all he could do was wishtle... becuase when it came to size, she was qutie a dozy. Obviously much when this little one was fully grown she would be even bigger than Diamond. He figured that this could only be a firelizard version of the ebony... which only made sinice that the little ones could have the same mutations as the dragons. The Ebony looked around and finally began to come in his direction, which only made the shappirerider girn with complete and utter delight at the situation. He was amazed to see the cute little firelizard wanted him.
He took out the food that he had been brought and he began to feed her. The smile that was on his face never left, and soon he could feel that he had impressed another little one, as he picked her up and held her in his arms... he wondered for a second how much of chore holding her might be when she was fully grown... he laughed a little with a sigh, as the little Ebony looked over his shoulder. Right off the bat she showed her nature was like that of the bloods as she saw C'lyn and let out a little hiss... but it became obvious that she could tell who was more improtant to And'l becuase her reaction to Uu'ian's presance was a soft croon before she feel asleep.
Andol couldn't help, but turn and smile at his weyrmate saying, "Look... at the new member of our family. I think that I will name her Oynx..." Yes it seemed a nice name, considering that he color macthed prefectly along with it

Uu’ian just laughed softly as his weyrmate ran past him, And’l was definitely a firelizard person, and certainly impatient, Uu’ian hadn’t gotten that great a sense of urgency from the burgundy messenger so his current pace was just fine for him.
It turned out not to be that far to the nest anyway, and Uu’ian peered curiously at the eggs, then looked around. Either not many people had been alerted to this hatching, or not many people thought it worth coming for a clutch so small. Probably the first, despite how common firelizards were here there were always more than a few people willing to bond to them.
Now that was certainly unusual, Uu’ian thought as he looked at the first firelizard to hatch, by now there was probably no colour of hide that could surprise the bronzerider, but the black firelizard was remarkably large, and probably not clutched by a green at all…
There wasn’t a great deal of choice for the newly hatched firelizard, but the black one seemed to have no trouble in choosing because it approached And’l right away. Uu’ian smiled softly at the look on his mate’s face as he realised the firelizard was waiting for him to feed her (there was a definite female look to the black firelizard he decided). The other eggs did seem to be cracking just yet so Uu’ian took the chance for a closer look at the new hatchling. She actually seemed to be very similar to an ebony dragon, he mused, just in a smaller package, and it seemed she was going to be somewhat like a ebony in personality too, Uu’ian thought as the firelizard hissed at C’lyn. Fortunately she chose not to hiss at him, which was just as well, Uu’ian didn’t feel much like breaking up fights between Fury and the new hatchling already.
Uu’ian smiled at And’l’s metaphor, he supposed they were like a family, a family with two fathers and lots of winged children, the newest of which was to be called Onyx. Idly Uu’ian wondered if And’l was trying to tie in with his brother’s naming theme or if it just happened. ‘She’s beautiful, love.’ The bronzerider commented while his own firelizards swooped about, all trying to measure up the latest addition to their weyr.

An ebony firelizard. That would mark the first time one of the dragon mutations showed up in the firelizards. And she knew exactly who she wanted. Resigned...and knowing Tirlynna would find out and kick his butt if he didn't stay...C'lyn sat down on the sand.
"Not a green clutch, then. Wonder if the mother got herself killed protecting them." Golds did, sometimes, against other creatures of the wild. C'lyn always figured bonded firelizards were better off than their wild cousins, having humans to help with such things.

The next egg to hatch produced a pretty red colored flit. Again, this flit seemed to know exactly who it wanted. It went straight to Uu'ian.
The mulled wine flit
Gender: Female
Appearance: This firelizard is striking indeed, her hide is a rich purple-red shade that glistens softly in direct light and comes up with occasional flashes of rich ruby red that make it look as if this girl was supposed to be a metallic shade and someone changed their mind half way through, now though her sheen looks far more liquid than metallic, and vanishes whenever she’s in shadow.
This firelizard is beautifully proportioned, a positive ideal for her kind if one disregards her odd colour, and on the large side, being as big as an average sized bronze but without the bulkier build bronzes sometimes display, there’s also just something about the way she looks that says female. In the air she is as graceful as one would expect from her looks, but whenever she moves on the ground she gets into a terrible tangle and somehow ends up doing a firelizard faceplant. Small wonder then that she prefers to fly everywhere or be carried around.
Personality: She might be large and she might even look slightly metallic but this firelizard seems to totally lack the ego so common to the larger firelizard colours. Frankly she’s not interested in throwing her weight around or being the boss of anything, that would interfere with her social life and her napping. If this isn’t the actual most relaxed firelizard around, she’ll do until the real one comes along, she’s perfectly content to spend her entire day sprawled out somewhere warm, dozing away, as long as her person is nearby.
It’s true, she doesn’t much like to be separated from her human, he needs her you see, without her he’d be desperately lonely, so she endeavours to stay close to him at all times, often perched on a shoulder. She’s perfectly friendly with other humans too, and other firelizards, she shows no fear of dragons and whers (they are her distant relatives after all), and even felines, canines, and runnerbeasts are likely to be courted as friends by this female. She loves to cuddle and nuzzle, and attempts on the part of other creatures to run from her or eat her are quite likely to hurt her feelings, it’s close to incomprehensible to this girl that there are creatures out there who don’t automatically love her.
Although she is clearly female this firelizard seems totally disinterested in Flights, never flirting with males, or even singling them out for extra attention, and displaying nothing more than honest confusion at territorial or aggressive displays from other females. Occasionally a weak glow suffuses her hide but it doesn’t seem to be a prelude to Flight because she somehow never gets around to Rising.

The second egg shattered, and left, not a blood, because this firelizard lacked the distinctive toe webbing of that colour, but a hatchling of a similar colour that seemed to be rather more dignified than the average hatchling firelizard. She (for this one looked female too, even more so than Onyx) walked carefully out of the shards of her egg and approached slowly.
For moment Uu’ian wondered if this little flit was also coming for his weyrmate but the creature tumbled over her own feet, stood up, shook sand off her hide and looked directly at Uu’ian himself. He could come pick her up and feed her now please, she wouldn’t let him be lonely ever again. Fury hissed spitefully and hurled the meat he was holding straight at the hatchling; his wasn’t lonely now!
Falling on the food Fury had thrown out of anger the red female chirped cheerfully. Why thank you brother-friend, how kind. Uu’ian rolled his eyes as the thwarted blood settled on his shoulder again. His, thank you. Ignoring the blood for the moment (Fury would get over his sulk in the end, he wasn’t even as violently opposed to the new hatchling as he pretended, Uu’ian reached down for the hatchling before she managed to choke herself, then decided sitting would be a much better position for dealing with Fury and Serene in hand (yes her reaction to Fury had given this female her name), while letting Steadfast and Mystery, and And’l if he could tear his eyes off Onyx, to get a look at his newest bonded.
Serene looked curiously around as she ate, measuring up each new person or creature she saw, and marking them as friends. Of course her brother-friends were special, as was hers, and that one, he was important to hers. With a contented yawn the young firelizard snuggled up to her bonded, and promptly fell asleep as hatchlings did.

This was definitely one of the stranger clutches C'lyn had witnessed...other than Malaracyth's first, when the new colors had first been seen.
Still, neither of the flits that had hatched so far was what one would call 'normal'. An ebony, and now a female burgundy...that was what C'lyn thought it likely was.
Maybe burgundies came in both sexes and they just had only seen male ones until now. It was possible...rainbows, after all, did come in both. Two more eggs to hatch, out of the four, and clearly not a gold's clutch. Maybe it was an ebony's clutch...maybe there had been a couple around and the Weyr hadn't seen them. Ebonies were odd creatures and for one to abandon a clutch made more sense than for a gold to. The female was larger than a burgundy, too. Maybe she was a blood?

The third egg to hatch was a little gray bugger with speckles of the five original colors on his hide. He jumped up as soon as he broke out of his shell, and flew as hard and fast as he could into C'lyn, hitting C'lyn in the chest. Then he looked up pleadingly for food.
There was one last egg to hatch, Karlyn's egg.
Color: speckled (infertile flit)
size: about the size of a brown
appearance: He is gray with speckles of the five original colors on his body. He has a delicate build to his brown sized body with small bones.
Personality: He can always find something to be hppy about. This flit can't stay sad for more than five seconds (five seconds is also about his attention span). He loves his,and he is always to be found somewhere near his. He gets into everything and somehow comes out fine on the other end. He loves to make people laugh and to make people happy.

C'lyn eeped. "This has to be one of the strangest...clutches...I've ever seen." The eep was as a firelizard hatchling hit him right in the chest. As small as they were, he hadn't been quite expecting that to happen. And it was another completely abnormal firelizard.
Grey with speckles of the original colors, as if he had tried to be a rainbow but not quite managed it. "Okay, little one." He knew the drill on this, reaching for some of the available food to feed it to the little one. Who radiated pure happy.
Radiated feelings C'lyn had completely forgotten were even possible of late. Hatched happy, this one. Which gave the inevitable name. "Happy little thing, aren't you."
Chirp. He'd be even happier if C'lyn would give him more of that very tasty meat.

The egg Karlyn was holding finally hatched. A small green sized orange flit poked his nose through, and sneezed onto karlyn. Karlyn smiled as a delicate orange pulled himself out of the egg and flopped onto her hand, exhausted. She quickly fed the little creature and thought at him, Carrot, you are Carrot.
She had a picture of the vegetable in her mind when she said his name, and from now on, his name would have the idea of a carrot when she called him.
Carrot rubbed his nose on her and went to sleep with a happy full belly.
Karlyn stopped paying attention to him at this point and looked up at the other impressors. Her father was there with a happy little flit that he impressed.
Karlyn smiled shyly at the man who was her father. She didn't know him very well, but she knew who he was. Wanting to talk to him and get to know her father a little, Karlyn shyly spoke to her father's bronze, Umm... Hello... This is Karlyn...
She wasn't sure how to speak to strange dragons quite yet.
Color: Orange (Infertile Male affiliated)
Size: Size of a small green
Appearance: Bright carrot colored orange with daint build. He looks like the smallest rub will tear him apart.
Personality: Carrot is a very sleepy, laid back flit who is happiest when he is stretched out somewhere on his human. He always seems slightly bewildered and he often sneezes.
