Each of the following creatures are special. These are rare, limited creatures, usually obtained during an event, such as a holiday. Some of them are breedable, some are not.
Each Post will include an image of the egg, hatchling and adult images, side art if available, the time of release, how it was obtained, the artist who drew it, the common abbreviations you may see, breeding notes and any additional information it may be useful to know.
If you find an error in the posts, or have information to add, please send a message to Hawke (either here, or directly through Magistream.)
More prettiness to come!

57. Voltarian Alphyn ![](http://magistatic.com/i/00a0d72ed88fc589732efe74c14e16933bfc49b3.gif) ![](http://magistatic.com/i/e1b401685be5417b5609ab67ea14ab561f42043c.gif) Released: September 2009 How Obtained: A special gift from Azazel to recognize players found to be particularly good, helpful, polite, kind and generous on the forums, willingly, and out of the goodness of their hearts. Artist: GlassWalker Common Abbreviation: V Alph, Voltairian, Llama, Drama Llama Breeding Information: This creature is neither breedable, nor tradable. Additional Information: There was an enormous hullaballoo around the release of these creatures. The Voltairian Alphyns were released at the same time as all the other Alphyns. Since the creature count was up by one more than creatures found, players were trying all manner of breeding and searching, looking for the answer to some kind of riddle. The original information given out by the players who received them was basically, "Don't TRY to get it." Damien finally put an end to the wondering and stated outright that it was a gift to recognize certain Magi. Ironically, this backfired into a near flamefest as players with out one bawwwed that it was not fair and they would never be recognized, no matter how nice they were. Things finally settled down, and more have been given since then.

70. Decessus ![](http://magistatic.com/i/2b922617f367bb807dfd2d13bda25898ff43bf9a.gif) ![](http://magistatic.com/i/670f5c13565e7e459868b2be8193a00aa218fc02.gif) Released: A few days before Halloween, leaving a few days after. How Obtained: Stream Artist: BettyxMe Common Abbreviation: Decessi (plural), Rat, Zombie Rat Breeding Information: This creature is not breedable Additional Information: For a few days prior to Halloween, and partly through November 1st, the stream was 'flooded' with Decessus eggs. They were the only eggs available in the stream during this time. Some referred to this flood as the Plague, or Infestation. For about 20 minutes on November 26, 2009, after the site returned from the Great Turkey Explosion, Decessus eggs could be found in the stream- although not as a flood. These have been dubbed Glitch Rats. The Decessus returned for the 2010 Halloween season, but they were mixed with other eggs in the stream instead of completely infesting it. 71.

83. Coal Wyrm ![](http://magistatic.com/i/579c9c448f998b0d8e141dd9d89d862ed3b143a9.gif) ![](http://magistatic.com/i/62f25da2db2238f923ccc543fffd9e149659964f.gif) Released: Christmas 2009 How Obtained: A quiz was issued to some players, answering that you had been naughty and deserved coal, or good and deserved tinsel would result in acquiring the "lump of coal" Artist: GlassWalker Common Abbreviation: Coal, C Wyrm Breeding Information: Coal Wyrms can breed successfully only 3 (sometimes 4) times. They are not interbreedable with Tinsel Wyrms. As of August 4, 2010, Wyrms with breedings left now have a counter on them to show how many. This aids in selling wyrms, so that buyers know what they are actually getting. Wyrms with out any breedings left will not have the counter on them. Additional Information: The quiz would pop up either at log in, or randomly while browsing the site if the player was already logged in. The reason it popped up for some and not for others was not disclosed aside from it being stated that the wyrms were intended to be rare. Once at the quiz page, the player could not navigate to any other page on Magistream until they had chosen an answer. Those original Coal Wyrms were dubbed "Gift Born" (GB) Coal eggs have virtually no description, leaving some players who were gifted with them to wonder if they were eggs that needed clicks or not. ![](http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b297/TNHawke/Magistream/breedingsleft.png)

85. (Belled) White Elk ![](http://magistatic.com/i/224031e823efa09275d3dd65836fd0df08a7fa4d.gif) ![](http://magistatic.com/i/35daee99cce96a9da0f2f26bd06d9f7133abe94c.gif) ![](http://magistatic.com/i/4a7beab4c6043dacd683b5050612d77b76b474a1.gif) Released: Christmas 2009 How Obtained: A gift from Magistream to players who gave an undisclosed number of gifts to others. Artist: BettyxMe and GlassWalker Common Abbreviation: Belled, Collared, Elk Breeding Information: These creatures are breedable. All types of White Elk are interbreedable. Additional Information: There are gender differences - Females: look left, no antlers, single bell
- Males: look right, antlers, three bells
The type and gender of White Elk obtained was random. These original Elks were dubbed "Gift Born", and are highly sought after, as not every player got one, and those that did, received only one. Several groups arose to aid with finding temporary and permanent partners for breeding purposes. The Elk, like the Voltairian Alphyns, created an uproar of "That's not fair!" from players who did not receive one. Some had given gifts, but not enough to meet the undisclosed amount. Some players were away and unable to log in during the time of gifting. Some players managed to miss the threads discussing it, the 'gift' option on their eggs, and the tree at the bottom of their keeps, and so did not give any gifts. Things finally quieted down, and bred elk are now being sold so that everyone eventually has a chance at them.

Additional Information: Unlike the Decessi who flooded the stream for several days, the Arkai came as random egg drops at the usual quarter hour drops and as replacements for other eggs taken. Although their description lists them as bird like, they are actually relatives of the Quetzalcoatls. There are gender differences - Females: Purple and green
- Males: Blue and orange

Additional Information: The Jackalope Flood began a few days after Easter. There was a glitch when the Jackalopes were first released, resulting in all eggs hatching female.

Jackalopes were the first creature ever to have the first adults immediately able to breed. This set has male and female differences - Female: creamy stripe, facing right, smaller horns
- Male: purple stripe, facing left, larger horns

Artist: Rijolt Common Abbreviation: B Crystalwing, CW Breeding Information: Blue Crystalwings can breed with other blues to make more Blues. Similar to the Quest Emerald Wyverns, Blue Crystalwings can breed with Donation Crystalwings. Blue Crystalwing + New Purple Crystalwing = Green Crystalwing Blue Crystalwing + New Gold Crystalwing = Bronze Crystalwing They can not breed with Old Crystalwings. Additional Information: There was some grousing similar to the Christmas grinching by those who missed the event, but it was much less compared to earlier attempts at giving back to givers. Likely, more people expected it, were able to log in (rather than being away for the holidays), saw the threads and were told about it by friends. The originally gifted Blue Crystalwings were dubbed "Gift Born" (GB)

163. Keep Spider Released: Halloween 2010 How Obtained: It would randomly drop down from a web decorating the page. When clicked, it would become a creature in the player's Keep. Artist: Niwer Common Abbreviation: Spider Breeding Information: Not Breedable, no indication that they will be. Additional Information: Each player could collect two spiders. Once the two spider limit was collected, they would no longer drop down. They come in male and female, although it does not appear they will be breedable. Some players never realized that clicking on the animated spider would result in acquiring them as a pet. They are tradeable. (additional images in the Special Events thread)
