Alternate names: Eggs, Cocoons

Use NPC generators instead in case the source is not limited to single spawning. This is purely for when the source becomes useless garbage after the hatching and destroying them has no useful effect after the fact.

Can be used even for cases where the eggs/cocoons can't be destroyed beforehand, but note should be added about this limitation.

For editors: The cases of obvious "monster will come from this/here" may be eligible for its own tag which would eliminate the use of this tag for cases of indestructible eggs.
