Those Keepers who have become reptiles and birds have special needs, needs that those who remained mammals do not truly understand. In the winter of 700, a small group of reptile Keepers came together and started the Fellowship of the Egg. The Fellowship, and the small converted warehouse donated by one of their own, gave them a place to talk and keep warm against the deathly grip of the Northern winter. In the years leading up to the Yuletide Assault in 706, the Fellowship grew to include more than a hundred reptiles and birds, some of them choosing to live in the Fellowship's Hall.
The invasion dealt a serious blow to the Fellowship and its members. The Hall was burned to the ground, and nearly half of the membership gave their lives in a futile effort to protect the two dozen eggs that were being incubated inside.
