Egg hatches and produces autonomous, shape-shifting minions.<ref>"Egg… hatches."<br/><br/>
“Don’t hatch right now,” Engel said, abruptly.<br/><br/>[...]<br/><br/>Egg had cracked, head, most of his torso, and one arm demolished into fragments shell, leaking thick yellow yolk.  The thing that bulged out of the encasement looked like something between a combination of a morass of worms with hook-legs and a featherless bird, soaked in yolk.  The actual configuration was impossible to make up, as it was all curled up into itself.<br/><br/>[...]<br/><br/>Slowly, with lurches and throbs, the pink-black, yolk-slick mass receded.  The eggshell exterior closed around it.<br/><br/>[...]<br/><br/>“Is that you?” Amy asked.<br/><br/>“Nah.  She’s herself.  So are her sisters.”- [https://www.parahumans.net/2019/10/22 Excerpt] from [[Sundown 17.7]]</ref>

The main minion that he prefers to use is named Rhea. She is a large featherless bird that is around ten times his mass, and has significant superstrength. Rhea appears to be able to track people, and is relatively docile and predictable.<ref>Pink, featherless bird flesh pressed out against the aperture, cracking it further.  Beakless, but with a pointed face and long neck, the bird-thing he’d named Rhea lurched and lunged out, at almost ten times his mass.  She flapped a featherless wing aimlessly, craning her head around.<br/><br/>“Can you sniff out anyone familiar?” he spoke with half a mouth and a partial tongue.<br/><br/>Rhea turned her head to look back at the building.<br/><br/>“Out here.  Walking away.”<br/><br/>Rhea swelled, organs shifting, her body reconfiguring in subtle ways.<br/><br/>She turned toward the parking lot.<br/><br/>There she was.<br/><br/>[...]<br/><br/>Rhea extended pink wingtips through the shell of his body, leveraging insane strength that dwarfed his own, dwarfed most people’s. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/01 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.a II]]</ref> He has other minions, named Gobbles and Hurk, who are the size of houses.<ref>Rhea slithered against Gobbles, who slithered against Hurk, warring for space in a sea of yolk that dwarfed the shell that contained it.  If he split, probably only one would get out.  Rhea was the smallest.  The others were the size of a house.  He tended to prioritize Rhea, because she was most cooperative, and liked to stay close to home. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/01 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.a II]]</ref> One looks more lizard-like, and another snake-like.<ref name="II19.4">Saw as something resembling a giant featherless bird, moist and bright with the lights around it, the size of a small apartment building, with teeth and a rotted-off nose instead of a beak, met the Titan in the air.<br/><br/>The bird had friends.  One bloated and resembling something between a lizard and a toad, three times the bird’s size, when the bird was already massive compared to everything but the Titans themselves.  A third one, roughly the same size, built blocky like a cow’s body was, with a stump for a head, and two praying mantis arms with skin stretched over them.  It clawed at buildings frantically, hauling itself forward, and its rear half was seemingly endless.  Naked pink flesh stretched over entrails that, as it made forward progress, turned out to be longer than any of the Titans were tall.<br/><br/>Fast and, as I watched, mass surged along that tail of endlessly unspooling lower body, reached the upper body with violent force, and almost seemed to give it motive force, hurling it forward.<br/><br/>The Nemean Titan was working on them, slowing them down, but their ‘brainless’ state was a frenzied one that didn’t turn off completely.  They kept fighting, blind, aimless and stupid now, and they were big enough and blunt enough as weapons to give him pause.<br/>[...]<br/>The three attached flesh-monsters were dying in the fight to Nemean.  Which saw another one lunge into existence.  A very phallic looking snake, with a circumference matching many of the buildings around us. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/07 Excerpt] from [[Infrared 19.4]]</ref> Egg prefers not to release any of them.<ref>“Do you ever let her all the way out?” Blackforest asked.<br/><br/>“Rarely,” Egg said. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/01 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.a II]]</ref>

His minions seems to feed on his emotions and are affected by them physically.<ref>Insane jealousy bubbled inside him, in that fluid where Rhea dwelt.  When everything about him was fragile or fluid, the emotions took on a substance they shouldn’t have.  Rhea could drink those emotions in, reacted to them, and began to struggle. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/01 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.a II]]</ref>

Egg regenerates his shell almost instantly.
===Later abilities===
Following the mass power shift he was able to call forth far more mininons.<ref>He had to reach past something that wasn’t Rhea, wasn’t Gobbles, and wasn’t Hurk, before he found his familiar companion, almost buried beneath the others.  Rhea extended pink wingtips through the shell of his body, leveraging insane strength that dwarfed his own, dwarfed most people’s. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/01/01/interlude-19-a/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.a II]]</ref>
