Egg is a Case 53, and a former member of the Irregulars.

Personality

Relationships

Engel

Engel and Egg have a brother-sister sort of relationship.<ref>It was interesting, seeing the interplay between him, her, and Scraping. He came off like the moody kid brother, her as the wiser, warmer older sister, and Scraping… was the referee? He reined in, chided, warned, and otherwise stayed out of it. - Excerpt from Black 13.10</ref>

Chantilly

Egg has a crush on Chantilly.

Appearance

Egg has skin that resembles an egg shell. Even his eyes are molded out of it, with no separation between lid and eyeball. The shell breaks whenever he moves, and heals again when he stays still. A mixture of blood, white vitreous liquid, and yellow yolk will leak out when he cracks. He has shockingly yellow hair.<ref>Egg was younger than Tristan or Rain, older than Kenzie. His skin was like eggshell, brown, his eyes molded into the shell down to the eyelash, but with no separation between lid and eyeball. It broke when he moved, with membrane beneath the shell holding it mostly together, and the regular breaking that came with blinking led to a crumb-trail at his cheekbones. Where a part was still for a moment, the cracks closed up, only to break again when that part moved. Here and there, blood mixed in with white vitreous and thick yellow yolk weeped out of the biggest cracks. His clothing was normal, a sweater and slim jeans, but it looked as though he were wearing a plastic layer beneath. His head was hairless and smooth on each side, with a shock of yolk-yellow hair on top, the same kind of liquid-thick as corn silk. - Excerpt from Black 13.10</ref> It was implied that he becomes more fragile when he doesn't eat enough.<ref>“Sorry,” Engel said. “You are so fragile today, Egg. Have you been eating?”

“Not now,” Egg said, his full attention fixed on Sveta.

“You must eat to be healthy. We’ve talk about this.” - Excerpt from Black 13.10</ref> He has a yellow tongue.

Abilities and Powers

Egg hatches and produces bird-like autonomous minions.<ref>"Egg… hatches."

“Don’t hatch right now,” Engel said, abruptly.

[...]

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.

[...]

Slowly, with lurches and throbs, the pink-black, yolk-slick mass receded. The eggshell exterior closed around it.

[...]

“Is that you?” Amy asked.

“Nah. She’s herself. So are her sisters.”- Excerpt from Sundown 17.7</ref> He refers to these minions as 'Godbirds'. The main minion that he uses 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.<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.

“Can you sniff out anyone familiar?” he spoke with half a mouth and a partial tongue.

Rhea turned her head to look back at the building.

“Out here. Walking away.”

Rhea swelled, organs shifting, her body reconfiguring in subtle ways.

She turned toward the parking lot.

There she was.

[...]

Rhea extended pink wingtips through the shell of his body, leveraging insane strength that dwarfed his own, dwarfed most people’s. - Excerpt from Interlude 19.a II</ref> He has other minions, named Gobbles and Hurk who are the size of houses.

History

Background

Egg was experimented on by Cauldron and turned into a Case 53 as a result.

Gold Morning

Egg joined the rest of the Irregulars in attacking the Cauldron Compound, and was one of very few to survive.<ref>Whippersnap: Egg was only one to come back from there. he said you and Weld stopped us from getting justice - Excerpt from Glow-worm P.8</ref>

Post-Time Bubble Pop

Egg started working with Semiramis alongside Engel and Scraping. The plan was to normalize Case 53s by including them more in mainstream media. The deal was disrupted when Teacher subtly let the group know that Big Picture was involved, which made them uncomfortable enough to drop out.

These events lead Victoria, Tattletale, and Sveta to them, in order to find information on what Teacher was up to. As consequence, they had to be hidden in Wardens Bunker to evade Teachers attention.<ref>Breaking 14.2</ref>

Post-Attack on Teacher

Sveta brought him and Engel to Shin during the second crisis to bribe Chris Elman into letting heroes inside his lab.<ref name="II17.7">Sundown 17.7</ref>

The Ice Breaks

Egg attended emergency power testing of Case 53s, arranged by The Wardens. With the help of Blackforest he used it as an opportunity to reform The Irregulars.<ref name="II19.a">Infrared 19.a</ref>
