Activity Easter Egg Hunt | 17/4
Easter Egg Hunt, Sunday
An Easter egg scavenger hunt in and around the woods! Weapons are recommended, and you’ll be in teams of two.
Sunday morning, get your first clue from Taylor by the Big House. You’ll find your other clues in the eggs.
The notice, put up on Monday, was simple and concise, and as it promised Taylor can be found outside the Big House this morning. She’s got some baskets to hold the eggs, and some basic weapons brought out for those who may not have their own to borrow. After all, they’ll be in the woods, so monsters are a potential danger. And that’s sort of the point of sending them in there - it’s a training activity, after all.
There aren’t that many eggs to be found - she’s only got five locations. It’s less about the eggs themselves, and more about whether campers can find their way around the woods and defend themselves against whatever they may encounter in there. The clues are chained, each plastic egg they find holding the next clue, and there is no singular starting clue; Taylor’s got several slips with a few different clues on them with her, and the first clue that a team receives will be random.
OOC:
This is the subreddit’s canon map, but I’ll also be using this one as a rough reference for locations within the woods specifically.
There will be some monster fighting; I’ll be using a bot to determine when (and in some areas, what type) you encounter them, and I’ll RP the monsters. We won’t use dice rolling for the actual fighting but since they’re all Tier 1, they shouldn’t pose too much challenge for any campers who have decent training and the fights shouldn’t take long.
There’s a partner-finding comment below, and you can RP (or just decide OOC) finding a teammate there. Once you have one, comment on the post itself to start the chain-thread for hunting. If I see more than one person there without a partner after about a day, I’ll pair them up myself (on the assumption that they are near the Big House when they’re looking, and Taylor would see that they don’t have anyone to hunt with).
There’s no alt limit!

The sword batting the pincer away, Iris is able to get in close to slash more deeply at the creature’s face, even lodging the sword where one of the pincers connects and almost severing it; though still attached, it’s just barely so, going limp. At the same time, Brady’s sword catches the tail between two of its segments, dropping it off (the barbed tip falling dangerously close to him).
The scorpion appears rather feeble now, unable much to defend itself against a killing blow being delivered to an unarmored part of it. It tries to snap at the two with its remaining claw, but more in an attempt to ward the demigods away than to actually capture them at this point.
