    Day 1:

    The party march through the Blight Mountains. It's a rough enough trip the first day. Up slopes, down worn out passes, across the remnants of Kyrtin empire roads. The dwarves chat merrily to Moy about the virtues of Vergadain and BandyLegs gets more than a few questions about the outside world. This dwarves are excited to be outside Dwarrowtown for the first time in their lives. Kidunli shares a knowing smile with BandyLegs about their naivety.

    Around sunset the party is chatting happily and Othegre rises from her sleep. The dwarves do a bit of blood letting to allow the "night lady" as they've taken to calling her, to get her sustenance.

    Suddenly there is a loud shadow cast over the party and colossal beating of wings. A female white dragon lands in the snow in front of them and wipes the snow off her mate, a male white dragon. He remains sleeping.

    She turns and looks at the party, regarding them suspiciously. The dwarves gesture to Ekbard, suggesting a tight formation. Goodie estimates her to be 80' x 35', male slightly smaller.

    Bandylegs calls out.

    'Be ye friend or foe?'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The dragon tilts her head, a slight confused look on her face.

    OOC: As a dwarf you would know this suggests inability to comprehend speech.

    "She hasn't learned any bipedal tongue I'm afraid lads" says Kidunli.

    "Her mate is sleeping, I think we have have took a wrong turn somewhere." Ekbard says to bandy. He the addresses the dragon, " Can we offer assistance, is your friend the hurt, we have magic people who might be able to cast a healing spell on him".

    Bandylegs turns to the group.

    'Tight formation lads and lassies! Do not draw yer weapons yet! We will try to pass meanin' no harm... Two dragons is too many to trifle with.'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard gives the dragons a wide berth and trys to continue onwards.

    Goodie slings his bow and nugmdges humility forward
    arms open palms upnin the universal gesture of meaning no harm
    he smiles at the dragon and whistles a soothing song that lings have about beautiful dragons

    The dragon looks at Ekbard and tilts her up slowly, then sharply pulls it down. She does this again and again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard stops the cart.. "have me magic users who can cast heal wounds. I thin the 2nd dragon is hurt. if we heal it, They might let us pass freely."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,701 ✭✭✭✭Tigger


    Goodie jumps down off Humility and stands by her side


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    "I think she's clearing her throat so she can swallow you cleanly"

    'Othegre, Moy... and Flak.

    Have ye got any healin' spells? As Ekbard said... if we heal the mate they may let us pass.'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The female walks forward, advancing on Ekbard and stops and looks at the rest of the party.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    "she's not looking for a healer. She's looking for seasoning...." Othegre ensures she's not standing near Ekbard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,862 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Kal stays very still and tries not to breath.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard raises his head up slowly, them snaps in down again and keeps it bowed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,643 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    OOC: My spell for the day is Sleep Also, do I have any dragon knowledge (nature lore?)

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Ekbard raises his bow enought to peek out from under the bow. ooc: plz dont see giant tonsils


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The dragon emits a loud drone at Ekbard, but has a sort of smile on her face.

    Bandylegs steps forward carefully, readying his metal arms to cast Cure Light Wounds on the slumbering male dragon. He tries to do so without making any aggressive actions.

    Ekbard does the hole head nodding thing again, hopping to reassue the dragon that what bandy is doing it of good intentions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The dragon snarls, moving her feet in an agitated way, but keeps her distance and looks back to Ekbard every few seconds.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard continues his nodding dance.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 58,086 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Bandylegs casts the spell on the sleeping dragon.

    'Vergedain save me, I hope this works!'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The male dragon rises up from the snow, lets out a loud roar and rises into the air.

    The female makes several short roars. She dives off the mountain, only to rise back up a few moments later with seven gems worth 3,000GP collectively and dumps them at Ekbard's feet. She then takes flight once more.

    OOC: I'll work out XP later. Roughly 430 each.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard breathes again after holding his breath for what seems like an eternity.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 58,086 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Bandylegs motions toward the treasure.

    'Put that in yer cart, Ekbard lad. Let's continue on our way tae Clayton.'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Ekbard throws the gems in his cart and continues onwards towards clayton.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,862 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Kal breathes a sigh of relief and moves on with the group. He has an increased respect for Bandylegs and Ekbard.

    Flak move beside Kal to talk.
    "You are new here too right. That was amazing, I've never been so close to a dragon let alone two."

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.
