Quote from: The Scene:Swantville is a small farming town slightly off the path near the southern swamp-lands.

While passing through, you've all individually noticed a reward offered for a dragon that has been terrorizing the herdsman near the swamp.    The rewards seemed particularly worthwhile for you, and you respond to the article.

Its turns out that 4 of you have responded to the reward, and the sherrif has sent you all out together to better your chances against the beast.

After a few very-slow days of searching around the swamp, you've finally stumbled upon a giant opening beneath a fallen tree, which must be the dragons lair.
The open is covered in muck and moss, but you can tell that after only a few feet, it becomes an actual cave
There is no light beyond the first few feet.
The cavern obviously slopes down, and the floor is slick with black swamp muck and moss.
The entire opening is 12 feet across and 7 feet high.

just  list your memorized, or known spells, depending upon class. (update)
Quote"So, Scientology, you may have won THIS battle, but the million-year war for earth has just begun!" the two said in a statement that seemed to parody Scientology as science fiction. "Temporarily anozinizing our episode will NOT stop us from keeping Thetans forever trapped in your pitiful man-bodies. Curses and drat! You have obstructed us for now, but your feeble bid to save humanity will fail! Hail Xenu!!!"

Character Name/HP Saelin/20
Class/Race Binder/Elf
Attack/AC +4 melee, +5 Ranged / 16
Primary/Secondary Weapon Ramâ,¬,,¢s Horns / Short spear (5)
Armor / Bonus Items Studded Leather/3 Alchemists Fire
Potions: 3 CLW
Pact: Amon (grants darkvision 60ft, a fire breath weapon (30 ft line) for 3d6 damage EDIT: (Reflex for half damage) usable every 5 rounds, and rams horns that can be used for a gore attack for 1d6 damage, 1d8 if charge first)
Pact Augmentation: Acid Resistance 5

[ic=Saelin] â,¬Å"Let's keep moving, no stalling.â,¬Â

I climb down the hole.[/ic]

[ooc]
Binder Check: [dice]1d20+5[/dice]
If that is less than 20, I have to attempt to make a save against any spell cast by a divine caster, even a beneficial spell cast by a friendly caster. Also, Iâ,¬,,¢m supposed to be surly if I fail, and I can't hide the giant freaking rams horns on my head.
EDIT TO IC: Seeing how badly I failed my binder check, I edited my IC post to reflect my surlyness. Only time I have to make a binder check today, so no more editing for me.

Lowlight Vision, Darkvision 60 ft

Did I copy Ishmael from Brainface? Yes. Do I care? Nope.

Binder rundown for those that dont know:
3/4 BAB
Good Fort and Will
Everything else explained above in stat block
EDIT: Thankfully Re-Read Amon: the breath weapon has a range of 10ft per level, maximum 50. That's nice to know.

Quote from: for BartYour eyes have focused in on the pool in the back of the cavern.
Since you don't see any other movement in the room, you've assumed that the dragon must either be gone, or in that pool of sludge.
You can still see Flint waiting in the skylight form the tunnel opening.
You have initiative.[/quote]Your hear them walking deep into the opening, and eventually they stop.  
You've heard no other sounds, and all seems clear outside.[/quote]i pull out my rope[/i]' or whatever you need that may be 'standard' equipment.

Quote from: for SaelinThe other two seem to be staring at the pool at the back of the cavern.

If a character talks to a character, then I'll let the other player respond IC.

Normally when not in combat, I will wait on a few people to post actions, then play it out.

Quote from: for GilbertYou pull your rope from your bag and attach its hook to a solid rock jutting from the wall around you.
You hear a rather loud 'splat'!  and you look down to see that Bart has fallen down from the ledge.
You quickly grab your rope tight, and start scrambling down to the cave floor.
When you're feet hit the ground, you immediately turn to help Bart up from the sludge.
You hear a 'splat' come from the opening.
Still nothing wrong outside the cave.
It sounds as if the assault has begun.[/quote]It's a bull, just as you feared.
Not only that, it's older and bigger than you anticipated.
You can feel the fear trying to sneak into your bones as you stare into it's deep, empty eyes.

You shake off the stupor immediately, and quickly pull your way to your feet using Gilbert for counter-weight.[/quote]
You see it all.
The dragon pushing its' head above the surface, your companions hurriedly readying themselves.

You've been ready the whole time.[/quote] Initiative!

Flint & Saelin are already prepared to act, and can act first.
Gilbert & Bart need to re-roll.

The Dragon:

If you roll to attack, go ahead and roll damage at the same time.

[ic=Saelin] "Prepare to die, beast!"

Saelin shouts, loud enough for Flint to hear, to ensure he can come to our aid. I throw a shortspear at it, and then jump down to the ground with the others.[/ic]

[ooc]Free Action: Talking
Standard Action: Throwing Spear
If this is a surprise round, ignore the jumping down, that will be my move action next round. If it is part of a regular round, that's my move action. I'm on the edge of the ledge, so it might be considered a free action to just hop down: if daggerhart agrees, treat it that way.

Attack: [dice]1d20+5[/dice]  -1 if the dragon is more than 20 ft away, -2 if more than forty.
Damage: [dice]1d6+2[/dice]
Jump: [dice]1d20+5[/dice] (yay cross class skills)[/ooc]
