Spring is in the air, and with it a Spring Event!

What this? There are eggs hidden everywhere!

As you walk around, you notice a definite mixture of reactions to the arrival of Spring. Whispers drift past your ears about 'the first batch of eggs being found,' and you can see and hear parents ushering their children inside. The children, of course, opt to do the exact opposite of what their parents want them to do; running outside and forming groups all chattering and chirping about egg hunting - only a younger Birdie or two seem nervous, asking their friends about 'The Menace.'

But before you can pull somebirdie aside and ask them what's going on, you stumble into a spectacular scene:

A massive fashion show stage, set up right at the entrance of the Glass City. Professional-looking Birdies roam all over and around it, the majourity of them dressed in white, angelic clothing with gold trimmings, all with the label 'Glass & Glamour' somewhere on their clothes. You do, however, see one of the Founders - Beau, who to your surprise spots you and quickly makes his way over.

It's almost intimidating as the Primordial towers over you, but you find yourself at ease as he offers you a warm smile and pats your head.

"Oh, no no, you can't be here yet, didn't you see the guide rails?" Oh... that's what those were, "You can come back later, if you plan on joining though! We should be finished setting up in a week, and then one of the G&G staff will have you all set up. The Fashion Show isn't until the end of the month, though, so you'll have plenty of time to get your style together."

Ohhh. OH!

Beau chuckles and pats your head again, "Go on now, alright? And don't wander off too far and find yourself in the clutches of the Glass Menace!"

You pause entirely in your tracks from where he was ushering you off, turning wide eyes up to him. Glass Menace?

He sighs with a tense smile, pressing more keenly on your back, clearly busy but willing to answer anyway, "Well, you'll hear the rumours soon enough. We don't actually know what it is, but key witnesses claim it's a massive glass beast, much smarter than an Amalgam. It leaves eggs all over the place, yet no one has any real proof of it existing - though... it did wreck our show, last year. We think it got caught up in the curtains; pulled the whole thing down and tore itself free- left quite the mess."

Oh... wow.

"Yes, wow. There's even a wives' tale about it, because of all the eggs it leaves lying around. If you misbehave, the Glass Menace will come to steal your eggs and hide them away!" Beau laughs, clearly not believing it, "But hey, don't let that discourage you from picking up any eggs you find. Finder's keeper's, now go have fun!"

The anticipated Spring Event hinted by moderators is finally here! Not quite as busy as the opening event, but hopefully still plenty of fun <3

To Participate:
   While there are no special MYO eggs this time around, there's still a reward you can get for sharing this post! Sharing this post in a Bulletin or Journal and then commenting below linking us to said post will get you a reward, with added bonuses per tier listed below-

Journal/Bulletin: x1 Uncommon Trait
Up to 3 tags: 50 Fibers per tag
All 3 tags: x1 Rare Trait

Blindbag & Adopts:
   For the event, Moderators will be posting a Spring-themed adopt back that will have a few different methods of obtaining the designs. As well as this, there will be a "Blindbag" hosted by both moderators and any guest artists brought on-board. This Blindbag will not be to pull designs, but rather the name of one of the artists participating!

Once the bag is closed, an announcement will be made featuring the names of the artists in the draw, as well as the price to draw, and once their name is pulled, the artist will then get in contact with the person who pulled their name, and the person who pulled their name will receive a custom design from them - of which they can go over details in private.

These special mod customs are all allowed up to Very Rare Traits, with the addition of a choice: Either 3 Legendary Traits, or 1 Cursed Trait. Not all traits have to be used!

The rules for each adopt and the blindbag itself may vary, so please pay close attention in order to make sure that we're all acting fairly.

Mechanics:
   Members must already be on the Inventory to be able to participate in the event. Characters used for the event must be from the species to reap any reward. The event will last until 12AM on May 1st, whereupon the Blindbag will also close. The Spring-Themed Adopt Batch will remain upon until either all designs are claimed, or designers decide what to do with anything unsold. 

An event booth will soon be made available for members to participate in. This stall will be posted one week after the event post, and will be free-to-play. Each stall will have a specific set of prizes, which will be rolled by whoever is tending to that specific booth. It will have a larger requirement than previous booths, but will also have a greater set of rewards.

Finally, there are rumours that a special shop will eventually appear somewhere nearby! Keep an eye out for a special supply of MYO Items!

Mysterious Glass Eggs:
   Special “Mysterious Glass Eggs” will appear at random, with the ability to show up in Discord channels on the Birdie server as well as anywhere within the dA or TH groups at any given time. The eggs can contain anything from Fibers to Event Currency, to even MYO Items! Some eggs will only be allowed to claim by one person, while others will have a certain amount of claims available for all members.

We don't mind people telling where and when they find one of these eggs, because sharing is caring and we love when our members interact with and havefun with each other! There's plenty of fun prizes to go around, so please make sure to give a quick look around every day and have lots of fun!!

Event Currency: Gourmet Chocolates.
   Special chocolates that are just too good not to share. While some see them as a great way to tell someone they mean something to you, others are willing to accept them as forms of payment.

They come in many flavours, but the most popular is a simple milk chocolate with a cherry pressed into it. It’s common knowledge that sharing this specific flavour with someone means you love them.
