|look=Tenebrous shapes seem to swim beneath the opalescent surface of this sizeable egg, giving the impression of countless tiny wriggly arms interlaced just beneath its paper-thin nacre shell.  Near translucent glaes serves as a base, forming a shadow-tinged platform fashioned into the form of a moongate turned on its side.  Numerous hairline cracks skitter across the egg, culminating in a tiny hole near its top that leaks a viscous trail of opaque, twilight-hued goo.

* ALL attacks begin with : The miniature pearl egg begins to glow with a pulsating twilight-hued light that illuminates the shell's numerous hairline fractures.  Wriggling tentacles push open the small hole at the top of the egg, and tiny multi-armed devourers flop out.

====Successful Attack====
* The miniature pearl egg rocks from side to side as a gaunt shadow master claws its way out.  The skeletal, night-shrouded creature sweeps across the battlefield, descending upon <player>'s <opposing soldier> and rending it with crystalline spikes and slashing talons!
* The miniature pearl egg creaks ominously as a particularly corpulent multi-armed devourer oozes from the shell.  Wriggling its chubby tentacles in the air, the opaque creature speeds towards <player>'s <siege engine>, wrapping it up in a moist, multi-armed hug!
* The miniature pearl egg spews forth a legion of itty bitty multi-armed devourers.  The opaque shadow creatures swarm over <player>'s <castle location>, making moist, smacking, gobbling noises as they feed on and attempt to devour it!

====Failed Attack====
* The miniature pearl egg spews out half a dozen tiny multi-armed devourers, the opaque shadow creatures leaving a trail of glittering twilight-hued goo in their wake.  Unfortunately, they are going the wrong way!

====Death====
