I was thinking it would be cool if, in addition to being able to get Easter eggs from squeezing chickens, we could make our own. This could be a skill branch, with Dyeing I being plain colors, Dyeing II being simple stripes, Dyeing III being zigzags, etc. We could make the dye from berries etc., or if that got too complicated, buy it from a hardware vendor. Once we got the required dye and eggs, we could choose from a number of templates to dye the egg. 5 of these would be the 5 needed for the collection (bugsbury creme, secular holiday, golden) but there would be others as well. The eggs that took higher skills and more experience to make would be more valuable, provide more energy, etc.
This would, of course, have to be a seasonal skill, or else the whole purpose would be lost. Maybe you could make/buy eggs for the month of April, and afterwards they would disappear from the vendors, and your Dye-er would become void (of course, it would return next April).
So what do you guys think? Comments? Snide remarks? :)
