Al'Torac DM substitute's page

I thank you, mighty Fierce Ones, for saving my life in our fight against Hastur.... I owe all of you a debt.... I feel that I will only quickly perish in the battles against these other Great Old Ones, as I did in the battle against Hastur and the Kaiju.... This leads me to believe that I am not quite in the same league as the mighty Fierce Ones.... And so I shall, with great humility, relegate myself to providing what defense I can to the survivors rebuilding their world.... I shall dedicate my life to the training, nurturing, and empowering of the Jaeger League, and the reborn society they fight to defend.... I will not join you in the battles against the Great Old Ones, for to do so would only be to waste my gifts in futile combat, when I know that I can truly make a greater difference elsewhere....

Al'Torac the gold dragon, with Yingzen riding on his back, flies to battle with great beating wings reflecting the sun....double move brings Yingzen in range to attack Gojira.... But provokes an AoO from the great Kaiju....

Initiative 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

GRRRRRR....

Al'Torac shrugs and follows Daisy, MJ, and Derrik to kiss the ring....

Boon chance 1d100 ⇒ 19.... Yes! Al'Torac is granted a wish by I Am....

Initiative 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Al'Torac goes through the major moments of his life as a gold-dragon-descended kobold in a mainly red-dragon-descended kobold tribe in the Underworld of Alfheim for about ten minutes....

Then a period of dissociation that is partly unnerving and partly peaceful....

I am a terrible engine of destruction! The very worst monster the people of France have ever beheld! I am the invulnerable Tarrasque! It took them forever to figure out how to kill me! HAHAHAHA!!!

A period of calm darkness....

I am death incarnate! A crimson doom that flies over the land! I sleep on a mound of jewels, gems, and gold coins--a hoard so rich, it could ransom ten kings! I am the fire dragon that killed Beowulf, though he also killed me....

Another dark intermission....

The Rhinegold belonged rightfully to me.... More precious than life's blood it was to me.... I tried to keep it safe by slumbering upon it.... But the greed of gods, men, and dwarves was greater than my vigilance.... I was slain by Siegfried, and by drinking my blood, he became wise, and could understand the tongues of all birds and beasts.... I am Fafnir the dragon....

And then a return to the present life....
