Right on;.....
Marching order so far....
feel free to modify if you like.
Where do you guys want Hnoss? Also need Pip; Elgan. Elgan's gone til the new year I do believe.
I think that's everybody.
Percep:
Gotcha, daddy-O.
enter the dragon
(new linky; the old one was just to establish marching order).
Elganbird can see it just up ahead.
The wood you stand in is somewhat tangled; difficult terrain.
Though cover is copious.
Ahead, Elgan can see that a huge black dragon appear from slinking stealthily through the wood.
It proceeds to vomit a quagmire of steaming acid spew, eating the trees away and leaving a steaming acidic mudbath around itsself.
At jkl 5-7, the huge dragon; and the green puddle is his acidic spewzone. All the trees therein are now smoldering husks, and the stench is horrid. A loamy, burning and chymicule stench.
And now, all of you can see the dragon as well.
Initiative.
Beat a
And as irongrey snowpregnant clouds slowly trickle wet gobby flakes down upon the lot of you that slap your face and sting like elfdarts for the merest of instants, a slushy cold puddling gathers and chills your feet through your boots.
On the horizon, far to the east, lightning flickers and a long gentle roll of thunder echoes across the snowcovered prairies of Asgard.
Pip starts picking a heavy ringing dirge on Lucille, his sword Mezzaluna picking up the chord in its eerie warbling voice. despite the slow thudding of the song, everyone feels faster.
Dragon loses on dex to those guys.

Dio signs all round.
Huzzah!!!
Happy New Year!
And to you.
Sorry for holding things up, I'm finding it difficult to get a good run of time to formulate a plan and make a proper post.
right on....
huzzah!!!
“Dragon!” cries Beldan unnecessarily. Quickly he reaches into his pack, grabs a handful of potion bottles, then pushes through the undergrowth to R24 (thanks to Pip’s haste spell).
Pip reaches for the ebon-shafted arrows graven in dire runes as the moody music is taken up by his levitating sword. He pulls his bow taut and mutters as he takes aim:
"Dragonbane arrows! I have saved y'all till the last! I bought you in the bazaar, hoping that you would never have to be used. If ever you were truly crafted by someone who knew what they were doing and not a gyp, GO NOW AND SPEED WELL!"
uh oh.........
poor poor Svipdag.....
ElganBird Screeches a warning, late, as usual. (But in the little druid's defense, he WAS busy being impressed with the size of the magnificent creature now before them!)
ElganBird folds his wings and noses into a dive, popping his wings open at the last moment to halt his momentum as he screeches a spell in bird-speak.
right on dude....
"Crap! Spread out! Don't give it a big massed target!"
Hnoss moved too and she's about to buff some folks when I figure out what the goods exactly are.
Looks like she and Stiggy are left.
Okay.
Smite evil for......
Altai, Stiggy, Gjetost, Pip, and Beldan (effit; she did it before he moved).
+6 to hit. +22 to damage.
Elgan gets it too; he swoops down low enough.
Right on; it's Stiggy's turn.....then.......Svipdag......
*shudder*
*goik*
and I'm definitely coming down sick.......I thought I was just tired, but tired doesn't do this to your lungs..........*cough cough* owwwwwch......I'm going to crash out for today. See you guys laterz.

Stig stares at the dragon in disbelief, rubs his eyes a few times, takes a swig from his hip flask then looks again. “Dragoon? Ach, why dinna ye tell me we were fightin’ a dragoon.”
Get better soon!
fireball goes off, centered on Gjetost.
save dc 18 reflex......
it effects everybody but Elgan.
54 h.p. in damage; save for half's.
Hnoss follows up on her turn with a channel energy; this catches Gjetost, Stiggy, Altai, Pip, and Claw in its effect.
The dragon cast the fireball.
Stig's down 8 h.p.
And Beldan's untouched.
“Ach, feckin’ dragoon.” Stig pulls out and quaffs a potion of protection from energy (acid), and five foot steps forward towards the dragon.
right on.
Stig and Hnoss are all that have attacked since the dragon fireballed you.
The dragon cast the fireball.
Stig's down 8 h.p.
And Beldan's untouched.
Stig is down 8 hp, and has 60 hp protection from acid.....SHEESH!
Hnoss took 35 h.p. from the fireball.
:)
Elgan Hawk circles and screeches a spell. A pillar of flame appears. And then it grows. Having never called on this power before, it appears that the bird-form druid MIGHT be having just a little difficulty controlling his spell.
Sheets of flame roar past the dragon, mostly staying on target. Strangely enough, the flames do no harm whatsoever to the trees. The dragon is another story.
When a fire storm spell is cast, the whole area is shot through with sheets of roaring flame. The raging flames do not harm natural vegetation, ground cover, or any plant creatures in the area that you wish to exclude from damage. Any other creature within the area takes 1d6 points of fire damage per caster level (maximum 20d6). Creatures that fail their Reflex save catch on fire, taking 4d6 points of fire damage each round until the flames are extinguished. Extinguishing the flames is a full-round action that requires a DC 20 Reflex save.
Beldan quaffs his own potion of protection from energy, then ghosts forward through the trees, still moving quickly despite his efforts to remain unseen amongst the trees thanks to Pip’s haste spell and his own ability to move quickly but quietly. He draws his crossbow as he goes.
