Not to be mean but you don't get to call it the bbh smp until u acknowledge how fucking cool his lore was. Go rewatch the egg lore before you call it that.

Edit: whoops wrote an entire essay in the reblogs

PLEASE TELL EM MORE ABOIT THE EGGS!!!! in fertilized ones wpudl the infants be humanoid or draconian? wpuld there be a mixture? what would the ratio be like? would they mature like draconians or more like humans? Humans have naturally small birth canals so wpuld the infants seem stunted compared to others or would the parents lay them in draconian form? I AM SO INVESTED IN THIS AND YOU DONT GAVE TO ANSWER BUT IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS LORE!!!

YAY EGGS

okay so generally speaking, the baby would be born in its draconian form to be able to crack out of its egg! this species (The Aviaaros) also have a temperature determinant sex system, which means they have male and female, determined by temperature the eggs are incubated at, like several reptiles!

The species themselves are very much in the concept stage right now, but here's an example of an adult. during pregnancy, they lay the egg in their draconian form (because of the larger canal), however in their humanoid form if they were with Egg they'd just look like a pregnant person.

that being said, they'd probably lay one or two unfertilized eggs in the equivalent to a month as per a humanoid menstrual cycle, and just have a week where they ovulate and can be fertilized. the actual in body incubation period would be the equivalent to six months (i haven't nailed down their actual life spans yet) and then the egg would develop for another six months once laid before hatching.

i'm planning on several subspecies, here's some concept art, the above two designs are both "Tornado"

And here's an adult "Tornado" humanoid form example! (With wings hidden)

C!Purpled

More C!Purpled content please. I've been obsessed with the Egg lore lately (which seems to be a constant for me); specifically Sam, Purpled and Ponk as before it was Puffy, Skeppy, Ant & BBH.

THE EGG WILL COME BACK IN A FUTURE THING APPARENTLY? 👀

[hopalongfairywren]

HElllo hi i heard you were willing to ramble about egg lore? (<- knows nothing about egg lore but somehow ended up writing a fic about the egg and i need to pay for my sins)

Oh boy. Where do we fucking BEGIN! (This answer will be late and probably go on so many side tangents) Alright, so I'm just gonna recap the "smaller" events leading up to and surrounding the early part of the egg lore first. The Egg arc was so long I could probably make several long posts JUST for recapping the general events that happened in roughly chronological order as well as important tidbits to the egg lore. That's assuming either the ADHD spurred motivation fuel I'm running on while writing this doesn't dry up, or that I get the kind of motivation to write more posts this long from other asks like this. I'll also try to do more seperate posts on the more lore analysis-y side of the egg arc. So like how the egg's story was impacted on a more meta scale by the way the dsmp's story over all was being played out at the time by its' creators, the implications of its existance in both dsmp fanon and canon... IF I'm motivated to that is.

The Egg arc began when c!Badboyhalo found the "egg" in his statue room, which he was digging out to make way from the Dreamon Hunters (totally different lore plot, but that's for another niche dsmpblr blog) He soon showed it to c!Sam and c!Dream, and for context those two had been terraforming a part of the SMP close by the Badlands and therefore the statue room in order for Sam to complete the giant mega prison Dream had hired him to construct.

Bad was immediately drawn to the "egg" (which was called that because of it's shape and not because at that point it was confirmed the thing was an egg), where as both Dream and Sam were immediately weirded out by Bad's sudden affinity for it and the own bad vibes it gave off to both of them. Shortly after leaving the statue room, they spotted red vines growing by first by Hutt's Pizza - and then shortly after at Bad and Skeppy's mansion. This was extra concerning because they reasoned no player could have spread those growths up there on the surface, to those two different locations, in the time they were all down in the cave. This creeped Dream out enough he tried to manually remove the growth at the pizza place. This caused Bad to become agressive and he attacked Dream for 'hurting it', reasoning that the vines were beautiful. And it spread even more rapidly after that, with red vines being spotted growing around Jschlatt's grave, even on the Power Tower in L'manberg. Bad became even more attached to the egg and it's various offshoots, even nicknaming the egg "baby".

At this point most people on the server who interacted with the egg were, understandably were uncomfortable with the rapid spread of the vines and Bad's weird devotion to it. (Execptions to that being c!Puffy, c!Ponk and c!Antfrost who agreed with him) Bad and Ant eventually both started hearing voices from the egg, commanding them to spread the vines even further, while Puffy also started exhibiting the extreme fawning and obsession over the egg at that point. (She nicknamed it Eggy) Bad and Ant actively started spreading the vines; at c!Punz's tower and Sam's base. They also started urging other people to follow them back to where the Egg's main structure was, presumably in order to persuade more people over to becoming obsessed with said Egg. Sam tried putting a stop to this by trying to move the egg's structure physically, but he was stopped by Bad and Ant. The conflict was broken up when Punz came over, and remarked that he found the egg strange but "ultimately harmless." (Punz later elaborated that he was actually neutral on the egg and leaning towards viewing it as a potential threat, but to avoid direct conflict just wanted to see how everything would unfold. He also refused a proposal from Sam to fight Bad and Ant should the need arise.) Ponk was yet another case of someone initially opposing the egg but coming to view it favoriably. He had seemingly mixed opinions for a while, admiring the beauty of the vines but also being creeped out by the degree of devotion Bad, Ant and Puffy were showing to the egg over all. Ponk Eventually went to visit the Egg's main room and actually touched it. Like Bad and Ant, he reported hearing the egg make audible noises. Unlike Sam and Ant, he did not apperantly hear distinct words but rather "growling". Overtime, Ponk started referring to the egg as beautiful as well. Also he too began pushing for Sam to "join the egg" Leaving off here, with the next post (if it happens) being on the canonical timeline of events leading to most of the egg's followers disinfecting at that point, until probably the establishment of the proper eggpire. And then the red banquet of course gets it's own special post.

my thoughts about that qsmp lore stream

empanada spoke about how she wanted her life back but that in the federations eyes she wasn’t good enough and also the dead eggs coincidentally "didn’t meet the federations expectations". this might mean that the eggs that supposedly died of natural causes actually didn’t and instead died because the federation didn’t think they were good enough for the “perfect escape” that the island is advertised as to the islanders.

In honor of our beloved egg lore, here’s the sequel to my previous animatic "Never There." These two songs are by the same band and connected to each other in the album.

This follows Skeppy who made a deal with the egg to keep Bad safe from it's influence, although he ultimently fails.

Some Egg lore, pre-tapes.

He's always been a strange boy.

He looked down at his hands and smiled, seeing a wonky little face stare back at him. He grabbed a pen from his bedside table and drew another little face on his thumb, smiling at it.

He looked up around his room, faces and faces and faces and faces staring back. Smiling, frowning, crying. Eyes closed peacefully, open happily, squinted suspiciously, clenched painfully.

The sight made him shake, giggling to himself as he kicked his legs happily, beginning to hyperventilate as he tossed over on his side and stared at one of the faces on the wall, eyes staring at him as he stared at them.

"Good morning", he said, gently rubbing his hand over the face, tracing delicate circles over the eyes. He took a deep breath before ripping one of the faces off the wall and staring at it before crushing it in his hands, unable to hold back the massive smile on his face. He imagined the face twisted in agony, mouth screaming in pain, eyes begging for mercy as they were crushed.

Crushing them in his hands. Destroying them.

He giggled again before taking the cardigan from the end of his bed and pulling it on, walking towards the door, the eyes following him.

The eyes following him.

Eyes plastered all over his walls. Eyes glancing anxiously from his kitchen. Eyes crinkled in mocking laughter in the streets.

Eyes watching him, following him, all the time.

They always did.

???

Mmm I’m not quiet Sure I understand…? Unless of course your using my list-

Aka Time Effect & Kids and Eggs- I’m sorry if it’s wrong but since i don’t really know I guess that I can use this opportunity to talk about Troll eggs specifically those within effect of ‘the Gem’ within my AU that I’m working on-

When an Egg is effected over time the first far more noticeable effect is the hair darkening at the ends- giving a darker shade at the tips of their hair

the next effect after that is the shells darkening slowly but surely so much so that most wouldn’t even notice unless they had a picture to compare them

The white glitter on glittery eggs will actually start to glow faintly in the dark which unfortunately makes them harder to hide then most eggs so Parents just hide them in their hair mostly while they are doing simple tasks that won’t put the Children in danger-

These Trolls are known as ‘the Caretakers’ and are usually assigned Babysitter tasks and simple tasks like cleaning or making food, to not only keep them safe but to also prepare them for their own young with new experiences and opportunities to learn about what they may have to face

Coopers Egg within my world was stollen several months before his hatch date actually so I could just make him more feral-

The change isn’t as noticeable because it takes a long time for the effect to reach the outside of the egg, meaning that most changes effect the inside

I haven’t fully worked out how much it would effect the children yet but what I do know is that they would bite things a lot more, get into play fights a lot more, their eyes would glow in the dark, they would have sharper teeth and more sensitive ears, and possibly even be bigger then a normal Trolling-

I have yet to work out if they would have natural tails like every troll or make the trolls not originally have tails and instead grow them forcefully- (with Trollings effected by the Gem naturally hatch with a tail)
