It's not really too good in any case... Do you think you could take it on if it has such a thing as a supernatural ability?

Hm.... maybe it can be reasoned with. I'm certainly willing to try...

Edit: Actually, I'm dead serious in willing to try. If there's no one else tht needs assistance, then trying to convince the dragon to leave and stop hurting people and things is definitely my next choice of actions. Do I need to do anything special while approaching the tower?

Who wants to go see the Dragon first. Any way to detect what type of Dragon it is?

Sorry to keep you waiting. Weekends tend to be busier for me, though I can sometimes post. But I usually always get you something mid week.

Heh. Though you were an 11th level Paladin for a bit. Certainly made me feel less guilty about my mild-diplomancy.

I was waiting on an answer to this question, though I should have made that much clearer, and for that, I appologise.

Diplomancy vs Dragons! ... hopefully Althia isn't about to end up becoming Princess Peach.

By the way, if Vixsor doesn't come back since Vixsor won't be coming back, think we should find 2 more party members to join us mid game? 4 players, 1 of which is strictly a huge target at worst and unable/willing to contribute to klling at best, seems kinda small. And I've always prefered bigger parties, at least so long as everyone keeps up.

Eh, don't worry too hard about becoming Peach... Dang it, why couldn't you have said Zelda? That would have set me up for a joke.

If the castle was being attacked by a giant pig or evil wizard//rogue, then there'd be a chance she'd end up as Zelda.

What's the joke? Engald being Althia's Link?

Ok guys on my initiative pass I am going to sling out an Ice Slick under the dragon. This should cause it to make a DC 18 Ref save not to fall off of the castle wall and land on the ground prone.

From there if anyone was a way to immobilize/entangle it that should buy us a bit of time. I doubt this thing has perfect maneuverability so it can't just bolt straight up and continue.

Time to see how well we can gell into this. Gotta say, its been a while since I took on a dragon.

Awesome. Now we just need someone to go into the castle and clear out survivors. Unless someone really wants to get in the dragon's face.

... is that out of character, or in character? Because that sounds perfect in character. You should totally use that in your backstory.

Since it seems to be either possessed or what not, given that a human speaking it's languge didn't even remotely divert it's attention away for a second, I don't think there's too much more I can do.

Then again, I didn't even get a chance to roll diplomacy against it to see how it might react toward me. I wonder what I would have gotten.

Hypothetical Diplomacy Roll against the Dragon: (1d20+31)[39]

Hm... at the very least, if I had tried it this way, assuming nothing else was over-riding it's mind, it shouldn't want to kill me... I wonder if the calming aura might work.

Do those not attacking the dragon need to roll initiative? (1d20+1)[20]

Also, how much time has passed since we first got it with fire? At least 24 seconds, right?

I wish Globes of Invunerability dealt with Supernatural Abilities, too... or at least Fire. I wonder if I could use it to get through the flames and debri. Could I? Fire Resistance 10. -DERP-

Looks like the dice gods want me to see things today, rolled 18 on Spot, and 18+4 on Search. My initiative didn't go though...

Initiative:(1d20+7)[23]

EDIT: Not bad.

Hopefully they'll have you see a way through the fire and flames without becoming a Crispy Link.

Stop being so blasted melodramatic. It's nonmagical fire, it inflicts a mere 1d6 points of damage.

Now that I am done shoehorning OotS quotes, you are right. This could be an issue.

Not if you had the Goron Mountain Dwarf Tunic!

Seriously though, DC 15 Reflex Save to avoid catching on fire, and since the place was just attacked, it shouldn't be to the point where Extreme Heat comes into play just yet. Provided you don't roll Natural 1s, you and I are basically fireproof, given your Reflex bonus of 13. Which you still need to fix on your sheet; we did go over this earlier.

Still, I'd be careful if I were you. At 63% of your normal hit points, you'll want to avoid doing anything else that might cause you to die, and walking into fire is suicidal for those of us who don't fast heal / are flame resistant.

I suppose, other than confirmation on tactics (and maybe indulging in my rampant curiosity) that we're ready for the Dm to advance?

Eh, it's not much, but I do have all my uses of Opportunistic Piety left.
