Immersive Ink

Rhegaer feels the urge of the sword to fight the dragon and... Doesn't go against it. He draws the magical Flametongue sword, ignights it, and charges the black scaled dragon, swinging the sword at its head.

Urist calls forth in High Dwarfish: "The time of dragons is ended! The light returns to Tor-Xonor!"

Rhegaer swings high with his sword; Urist bashes low, attempting to break the dragon's bones upon the Hammer of Stonechapel.

Faeraidel's eyes go wide and she curses softly in Elvish as she sees the wyrm emerge.

She curses all the louder as she sees two members of the party ignore Alrik's sage advice and hurl themselves at the monster.

If she has an unequivocally clear shot at the dragon she will take it. She then ducks back out of sight behind the door frame, partly to reload, partly to clear the way for the rapid retreat she hopes might still happen, largely to avoid the gush of acidic death she fears is imminent...

Round 1:

Alrik shouts out and opens his spell book in an attempt to cast directly from its pages.
Rhegaer and Arvenil suddenly become of one mind, a black flame runs up the blade and Rhegaer has vision of cuts and thrusts that are sure to slay the dragon before him.
Urist shouts out in Dwarven and charges
Faeraidel curses the foolish and seek to to fire upon the dragon but is ready to run.
Phadian stands with Faeraidel watching in horror as the Fighters wade in.

Lenag scion of Gorgrinal is but a young Dragon, brought here in secret and worshiped by the Orcs. She springs from here watery bed ready for battle!


Initiative:

Party: mgt's roll comes to 3 [3 on 1d6]
Dragon: mgt's roll comes to 3 [3 on 1d6]

A tie! Dexterity bonus will allow first actions.

Combat:

Everything seems to moving in slow motion except Rhegaer who charges Lenag and brings Arvenil down in a mighty stroke from the dragons left side.

Rhegaer:
mgt's roll comes to 20 [19 on 1d20 + 1] - A solid blow
mgt's roll comes to 5 [3 on 1d6 +2] - Blood flows deeply from the Dragons neck!

Urist closes while the Dragon breathes on Urist
Urist: mgt's roll comes to 11 [11 on 1d20] - Miss the dragons forearm turns aside the hammer
Dragon: breathes on Urist
Urist saving throw (as 6th fighter): mgt's roll comes to 9 [9 on 1d20] - MISSED

Urist takes the stream of acid directly dropping 8hp to 0hp... Urist is down and deaths door has opened ready to accept him.

Forgotten in the chaos suddenly Alrik murmuring draws power from the arcane books there is flash of light from the pages and a mote and spark flies at the Dragon's head.

Dragon: mgt's roll comes to 9 [9 on 1d20] - MISS

Dragon's head is surrounded by light and it draws back eyes blinking....

Round 2 Actions (Except Rhegaer who is auto pilot)

"It may be but temporarily without sight!" Alrik yells to Rhegaer.

With nothing left to do, Alrik hurls a dagger at the dragon and backs away towards the door.

"Phadian; assist me."

Faeraidel darts forward and attempts to pull the fallen Urist clear, preferably with Phadian's help, alone if she must.

Urist collapses in a heap!

Rhegaer fights the dragon with a fury and rage that must have been instilled by the sword, for he feels no fear and shows no sign of retreating from the face of certain death.

Or maybe it's just the head wound he received earlier in the year...

Round 2:

Alrik stands ready to throw a dagger (which dagger?) or flee
Faeraidel cries out rushing to pull Urist to safety, Phadian rushes in with her.
Rhegaer FIGHTS ON!

Rhegaer: mgt's roll comes to 21 [20 on 1d20 + 1] - HIT
mgt's roll comes to 6 [4 on 1d6 +2] - - Again the flaming sword cuts deep into the Dragon.

Dragon (blinded): mgt's roll comes to 11 [13 on 1d20 - 2] - MISS (by 1)

Alrik see no opening and stands watching the scene
Urist is gently lifted and rushed towards the door.

At this point the Dragon is badly wounded and Rhegaer and Arvenil seem to sense the kill is at hand!
