Gm Razor's Assault on Dragon Keep

Game Master Ravagwen Darksbane

Egads! Our chef has just turned into a female cleric.

"Off to get some fruit then, but we might want to ask if anybody owns them first before taking them."

EDIT: Awww chef why didn't you keep it?

When you reach the tree you see some fresh fruit hanging down from the tree. There is a pixie sitting on one the branches with a small fruit in her hand nibbling on it. She seems harmless and quite happy with her fruit.

Gerold walks towards the Pixie currently sitting on the tree. When he is around twenty feet away he bows to the small pixie.

"Hello Miss Pixie. I know this might seem sudden, but me and my companions are on a quest to save a queen, and we can't continue unless we get some blood fruit. Would you mind it if we took some, fair lady?"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Chef mixed up his funky mushrooms again.

Anhur flexes in preparation for what seems inevitable.

Floid plays it cool, in case she wants to give us some fruit for asking so nicely.

The small pixie will look over at the party. Oh well sure why not, you can have one. We have plenty to go around since the fruits grow after someone dies, and I saw you take down those orcs. So there will be more. She will then toss one to Gennor. Just do not blow up any more trees, if you are dealing with a meanie call for a pixie and we can calm them down.

Thank you Mon Cherie. Chef will head back with the others and smear the blood on the door.

The pixie will giggle before she disappears, in a puff of smoke, cakes and lolliepops.
The door will open to a small hallway inside you see a man scowling over the writing.

"Howdy pardner, I don't reckon you've had yer eyes on the queen any time recent like have ya?"

The man will jump startled, at the party, Ah, no I have not, I heard of the missing queen and I have been reading these marking trying to get past so that I may find her myself. These orc carvings state that they white knight will be able to open the way. The only white knight I know of is the queens body guard. He is out looking for her. I think he went to the suicide peak. Can you go and fetch him? He will give you the directions to where the guard is.

Anhur, trying not to look offended at the obviously racist comments, stamps off towards where the guard is reported to be.

Chain quest ahoy! Chef follows Anhur.

As he moseys off after Anhur he mentions "Dontcha reckon a suit of white armor would get filthy right quick? Don't seem practical. "

The party will reach the site with no issue at all. They pass by the burning remains of a blimp. further up they see a rad dragon circling above the peak. The man is firing a Musket axe at the dragon. He will turn to you. He looks like this He will shout at the party for some help. The dragon is a Wyrmling so it is not very old.

Oh dear, a dragon! I am afraid I am not very good against those flying around. Chef will take out his daggers and wait for the dragon to start flying closer.

Anhur draws his bow and waits to see what the others would like to do.
How far is this dragon? Just wondering for range increment or approach purposes.

Floid has his crossbow ready as usual.

knowledge arcana: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15 doubt that cuts the mustard CR 5 critter

Normal 2 shots
rapid shot, deadly aimto hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 unlikely
to hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Not sure of range increments or anything.

Gerold pulls out his crossbow, but doesn't look too pleased at the prospect of using it.

The first shot will hit the dragon. It is about 20ft high.

Chef moves 10 feet so the group is spread out and flings a dagger at the dragon.

MW dagger: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 81d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Bah! I hate flying foes!

Doran waves his up and calls out in a harsh language "(draconic) Hey! I'm Doran, son of Enkidu! Dragons are awesome! Can we talk about this!"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

The dragon will look at Doran before letting out a bellowing chilling laughter. Son of Enkidu, you oppose the Sorcerer so prepare to die. I live to serve him.

"(draconic) A true dragon is no one's b$~&#! Moral qualms assuaged!"

Taking in a deep breath, Doran barks "Dragon Slayer Art: Great Kick of the Fire Dragon!" a small glittering ball of fire pops out of his mouth and descends slowly to the ground. Mid-fall, Doran kicks it hard, the ball rocketing up to strike at the dragon. "Take that!"

Metamagic: Intensified, Effect word: Burning Flash, Target word: Burst, Meta word: Boost, Distant.
Range of 150ft; DC18 ref save to halve 8d6 + 16 ⇒ (3, 3, 6, 4, 4, 2, 3, 3) + 16 = 44 fire damage.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Floid takes a shot with his crossbow and reloads

Anhur makes arrow death while acting like some kind of snake!
Snake Style time.
Bow (110ft): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9, damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
But Anhur momentarily confuses Doran for the dragon, and is only barely able to keep from taking off his ear.

OK damage for that first shot then
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

So I didn't make the knowledge check right?

Gerold shoots one bolt from his crossbow.
Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Nope, this be a cr 6 critter :D

Dorans attack hits the dragon but he comes out unharmed. Red dragons are immune to fire Floid and Gerolds attacks hit the dragon it will let out an angry growl before landing infront of the party and the white knight.

The knight will take aim with his musket.

to hit: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6

The dragon will watch the party before speaking after getting shot. The sorcerer contorls all, you shall not win.

"Reckon we'll figure that out later. Your time's a coming right now. "

rapid shot, deadly aim

to hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17 damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14 hit

How close is the dragon now? It's on the ground, so close enough for a single move + melee?

yes indeedy he is

Heh, thought you said RAD dragon, figured it was some sort of radioactive creature. Let's see...

Doran looks as if his favourite puppy just bit him.

"Oh yeah, well-" Doran snorts and breathes loudly then hocks a loogie up into the air, falling down to the ground; mid-flight he kicks it forwards, straight into the dragon's mouth. "Dragon Slayer Art: Belly-Ache of the Fire Dragon!"

Effect word: Wrack. Target word: Selected

Anhur goes in for a cestus punch, hoping that's a good way to hurt dragons.
Adding Crane Style.

damage: 1d12 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

The dragon takes a deep breath and blows fire in a 20ft cone toward the party dc15 reflex save for 1/2 damage.

cute little welp...let me show you a fire attack.

damage: 2d10 ⇒ (4, 9) = 13

reflex save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Yuri manages to dodge in time taking less than the full effect of the burst.

Tonight we dine on dragon steak!

Reflex, Evasion: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Chef backflips out of the way of all damage.

Floid takes a shot with his crossbow and reloads

Ref: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Hooray for fire resistance 5

Doran nimbly dodges the majority of the flames, the rest washing over his face and skin to reveal hard skin-colored scales momentarily before they fade back to normality.

Hmm, forgot, I have evasion. Gotta get something from those monk levels.

Reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Gerold yelps at the fire, and quickly runs up to Anhur to heal him.

Using CLW

CLW: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

The dragon will chuckle at the party. He is pretty beat up now.

"I'll give ya credit critter, most things don't much laugh at their own expiration. "

If it's my turn another 2 shots:
deadly aim, rapid shot
to hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
