    Excuse my bad spelling then. Were you looking for breathe or breath?

    "Our breath then."

    Default Strolon's Death

    Veriben will call upon the master of this test, and summon the powerful ghost before you, as the wind from the fountain whips about violently. {DM action}

    Strolon is lifted up as the ghost is being summoned the rest of you duck your heads and manage to hold your feet. Strolon's head is bashed into the walls and rock, splattering his blood all over you.

    "It is the WIND!"
    The Ghost says and then fades away.

    Strolon's limp form is seen collapsing as everything flashes away before your eyes.

    Veriben, Tomas, Kyra, and Belsambor only are here.

    Where here is is hard to say. But it looks as if you are in an underground natural cavern with only one way to go. You are all confused by the sudden transport and are not even sure what cardinal direction it is you are supposed to be going.

    You see no sign of Strolon.

    OOC- Hey, he could've checked in with me at least once... GimliFett is out.

    Default Wizards's Deep in the Earth

    The passage ahead is long, and looks to go deep into the earth. You may be a the base of some fissure for you cannot see a ceiling. It is cool here, but your robes will keep you warm. You will travel sometime, and see nothing, and not even a hit at a hidden passage. This is all natural, and the light of the sunrod will soon seem like home.

    "We're not done with our tests, and this place doesn't seem right to me. Therefore, I am testing for illusions." Bel explains quietly, keeping his senses open in the general area.

    Default A Deep Path into the Earth

    Tomas won't be able to see the 'ceiling' and it goes up into darkness beyond the lowlight of the sunrod.

    Belsambor will walk for a long time and see nothing, and all seems like solid rock.

    Ahead you will see a great chamber that seems to be glittering with gold. Fear seems to emanate from this room.

    Kyra will stay close to Tomas.

    Default The Great Gold Dragon

    Indeed it is a dragon, and all of you are frozen in fear as you near the chamber. The greatest dragon you've ever read of and even bigger could not match this great wyrm that filled the chamber with his body. A massive pile of gold and platinum was his bed, in an enormous underground cavern. You were about 50 feet up from the base of it, on the edge of a cliff looking out into the gold dragon's chamber.

    It flaps it's wings and eases your fear. The golden pools of radiance that are its eyes engulf you as they take you in. The great lizard rises up to face you and speaks with a booming voice, "Why doth thou young students wake me from my great slumber!"

    Eyes wide, if only because of the massive size of the dragon, Bel speaks quickly, and concisely. "We were at the graduation ceremony, when a orb of powerful, and evil, magic appeared. Master Jalberg called it a chaos sphere, and that we needed to come down here to save the school. Can you explain to us what has happened, Great One?"

    Default The Gold Dragon Speaks

    When Belsambor begins speaking you almost think the dragon is going to laugh from amusement, but he listens carefully and intently. The word chaos-sphere causes the great wyrm's gold eyes to flash. "Chaos-sphere!"

    He raises his head above you all, far above you the fissure rises into darkness and out of sight. "The time has come then. I know not of the new school master Jalberg, but the agreement is clear. The rise of the darklords is near."
    He looks up for some time into the darkness, and then to the tiny mortals before him. "If no professors have come to me, then dark times have indeed fallen upon your city.... that or many have forgotten me..." he sighs, and the ground shutters as if an earthquake shakes the chamber.
    "I must awaken the others. The time for the dragons to rise is here, and we will benefit mankind in our doing. The forces of the Abyss are spilling into your world, and we all must unite to stop it. Deep in the earth is the secret weapon of the wizards. You must be the chosen ones to obtain it, but you will need aid. I will do what I can, but I need to warn the others. All mortal should fear this evil force. Never say this name, and I do only to warn you. Forces of Cthulhu are never to be trusted. They should be executed on sight."

    When Tomas realizes that the dragon isn't intent on eating them, he regains his composure and says, "Great dragon, how will we know what manner of creatures these "Forces of Cth-" evil are?" Then he remembers the fire wizards and scowels. "Could they be...?" He thinks.

    Default Gold Dragon's Gift

    "The mark of the octopi and the squid are their calling cards." The gold dragon says firmly. "Each of you will be granted the sight, and will be able to detect the forces of the Abyss. To battle this evil I grant you enhanced power when battling them." Immediately you feel empowered.
    {OOC- Detect Abyssal evil, if you have planar knowledge, I'll give you +2 on this type of evil. Also, fighting this evil your spells are cast with +2 to INT and at +1 to level in power.}

    The dragon looks kindly at Belsambor, "The entrance to the wizard's maze is below, I will send you there. The aid of your master will still be available. I must go, and you must rest. Recover your spells, and ready to unlock the gates of the wizards."

    You will all feel sleepy, but before the golden behemoth fades from your sight you can still speak.

    Veriben acts on his most royal and proper behavior in front of the great dragon, bowing and nodding when appropriate. He speaks not a word to him, taking the stance of not speaking until spoken to.

    He allows the soporific effects from the dragon wash over him.

    Default The Dragon's Orders in a Dream

    The dragon will breathe his normal breath on you, but it is gentle and refreshing and smells of saltwater taffy. You will begin to sleep.

    In your dreams.... you feel awake....
    You will feel empowered, and can FLY.
    "You must go. The darkness of the Abyss has the power to bury us all. I sleep as guardian to the great treasures below, but cannot retrieve them myself. The ancient magic of my forefathers have imbued these caverns with magic that will only summon guardians within your reach to defeat. Some may be reasoned with, but the ancients felt trial by fire was the best way to earn success."

    He will light up a cavern across his great treasure chamber, and you will see a hole into the rock. "Go and you all will have my blessing. Aid will come, the rocks will summon them to your side."

    When/If you fly off the ledge toward the lit passage, and pass the dragon you will indeed feel blessed.
    {As long as the Fly works, so will this 'blessing' +2 to everything, and this is in addition to the Abyssal bonus which is now a permanent gift to your PCs.}

    Veriben breathes deep as the desire and the need to lift up from the ground pulls him upward. He smiles as he takes to flying like a fish to swimming. "Trial by fire seems just perfect to me," he says to himself as he flies directly toward the lit passage, not even glancing toward the treasure below.
