Description
Halloween is just around the corner and the ghost and ghouls are getting ready for their big night. This little ghoul, the fire gremlin, appears to have a strange egg it wishes to show us ....

Gremlin Texture: I manipulated GIMP Granite#1 to create the base colour for my gremlin

Fire gremlin description: these small gremlins normally shy away from human eyes, their colouration makes them hard to see when they are in their favourite hideout, your fireplace chimney!

Update:
My friend the fire gremlin, who I named "Whisp" after saving from a very unfriendly dog one evening, has been busy. Whisp allows me to see him because he trusts me after saving his life, and it appears the lead up to Halloween is the only time they will breed, which is why I have been seeing an increase in activity lately. The eggs can only hatch around Halloween, if they try to breed any other time the eggs are always sterile.

Whisp has hidden eggs in my fireplace to keep warm, and wishes to offer my friends a chance at having their own fire gremliin friend.

The following members have caught Whisp's attention by faving, or adding his image to their collections:

~Garchompdra
~earl-phantomhive
~Ryuu-black-dragon
~SylphLugia
~Red-Tomcat
~inusui
~ChibiMieze
~Cyndergirlonly
~98Aken
~MD33z
~spyro27

I have permission from Whisp to offer these members an egg. If your name is on the list, all you need to do to claim your egg is post with the following:

"I would love to have a fire gremlin egg of my own, and I promise that I will keep the egg warm. I will warm my egg in the fire * hours per day until it hatches."

* fill in with amount of hours (1 - 12). This may have an effect on your egg when it hatches

Edit 24/10/11:

Eggs claimed by:

~Garchompdra (10 hours)
~inusui (9 hours)
~Lycanic (8 hours)
~ChibiMieze (8 hours)
~Cyndergirlonly (8 hours)
~98Aken (7 hours)
~spyro27 (7 hours)
~SylphLugia (6 hours)

Sorry, no more eggs are available

Congratulations, all the eggs have hatched (refresh the image if you do not see your new hatchling)

Oh no! Something must have gone wrong, all the hatchlings look a pale grey like stone and have flown away from the fire to hide up in the dark recesses of the chimney, maybe we didn’t warm them properly ..... *checks with Whisp”, few! Whisp says this is normal. Hatchlings like to hide away while they gain their strength, being away from the fire means their bodies will cool, when their bodies cool it loses its bright colouring turning into this grey stone like colour. I guess we have found out where the gargoyle myth comes from, since they really do resemble a small gargoyle when they don’t move Lets wait and see what they will look like when they finally warm up by the fire

Whohoo, the fire gremlins have all come to warm by the fire, you are now able to see your gremlins full colours. But what’s is this, there are a couple of gremlins a different colour than the others, they appear to be golden! The golden are rarer, but you can sometimes find the occasional one will hatch from a clutch of eggs, the ratio is normally 1/10 in any clutch of eggs, although it has been know that a gold can have a clutch with 2/10 golden.

Your fire gremlin are now mature, if you are quick you may be able to breed them before Halloween finishes and get your own batch of ten eggs to give out. You need to pair up if you wish to breed them (the are no male/female sexes to worry about), you must breed them within the next 48 hours to have eggs that will hatch, post here if you have found a pairing and then message me for instructions. Please note, you will be the ones giving out of the images for your eggs etc, if you are unable to do this then there will be no breeding.
