This 3-inch oblate spheroid is colored a deep, fiery red. Upon close examination, tiny cracks can be seen all across the egg's surface. These are not flaws, however, but intentional details added by whoever created this high-quality piece of art. When activated, the egg transforms into a red drake and awaits its owner's commands. The egg can be activated once per week and remains in dragon form for up to 4 hours. If desired, the owner can command a mature red dragon to appear instead of a drake, but if this is done, the figurine shatters when the creature reverts to statuette form.[1]
