Newbie pack
From Egs Mayhem
A pack given to a brand new bunny (usually after their ribcage recovers from the crushing weight of a mass glomp). It contains the following items at a minimum, although the giver of said pack is free to add in their own unique additions:
- A basic TF gun
- A six pack of unlabelled soda
- A Squirrel Teddy
- A dead fish
- A cookie (generally wrapped in shiny plastic)
Origin
The traditions brought from the old TWC forum included giving newbies a dead fish. The reasons behind this have been lost in the mist of time, but there have been a number of theories. In the years since the Keenspot Migration, items were added over time to the newbie pack, and today at least 5 items are given to any newbie who introduces themself in the newbie intro thread.
Unique Additions
As stated above, a pack giver is free to add their own special piece of equipment along with the N-Pack. Here is a compiled list of such items.
- Piebunny gives out Small Blue Big Red Buttons, which are noted for having imploded the universe 4 times so far.
- Squato gives an Emu from an emu farm. This may or may not fit in the bag the rest of the pack comes with.
- AlmostReadytoFly gives out copies of the pineapple cheesecakes he received, along with a catapult.
- Back when he handed out Newbie Packs, TeddVerres always included a TF Gun Kamikazi Add On.
- Drow Bunny usually hands out drow-made item sets along with the standard newbie pack.
- catldr24 gives out benie babies, which he also gives for birthdays.
