Jax bolts to the other side of the room. He feels marginally safer when he puts a rock wall between himself and the dragon - enough so to throw his dagger in an attack, even! Still, his nerves are seriously frazzled. Jax's dagger passes harmlessly over the dragon's hindquarters, and his nervous shaking gives away any hiding position he might have had.
Crag, undeterred by the savage bite he just received, maneuvers to back up Dorn against the dragon. He slashes along its side as he moves into position, tearing off a chunk of hardened scales.
[sblock=Combined actions]Okay, I think that will about do it for Jax. He'll nonchalantly start circling to the exit... well, or at least to somewhere he can use ranged attacks from.
Jax
Move: walk to F10
Minor: Shifty to F11. He has superior cover in this spot, as I measure it. Stealth 14 vs passive perception of enemies. (probably fails against the dragon)
Standard: Ranged basic vs Dragon misses AC 18. (forgot to subtract 5 from the roll for superior cover)
Crag
Move: walk to H4, moving to avoid OAs of course.
Standard: Strength of Stone vs Dragon hits AC 21 for 11 damage, and Crag gains 5 THP.
Free: mark dragon if needed.[/sblock]

[sblock=Meepo]I don't think he's used his daily since none of us has been knocked down to zero hit points... yet. 
Also, I assume you are saying yes to having me NPC him, I'll go ahead and do that now. Hmm, seems like he doesn't need to heal anybody just quite yet...[/sblock]
Ingot keeps up its assault on the wraith-thing, but misses. Again the tremors knock it off its feet but again it scrambles back up again quickly.
"Crag! Hit it again NOW!" Meepo screeches. The warforged swings his sword again, but this time the dragon's scales turn the blow. The kobold skitters forward a couple of steps.
[sblock=Combined Actions]Ingot
Standard: Righteous Brand vs. Wraith (1d20+9=11, 1d12+5=9) Doh. Falls prone.
Move: Stand up.
Meepo
Standard: Meepo's commander's strike granted to Crag vs dragon (1d20+9=15, 1d8+5+3=12) Miss.
Move: to G0 (so he's within 5 squares of Ingot, just in case.)

So...quick question for you guys. I'd hate to do this, but with 2 members gone, would you rather I wrap it up and get you guys back to the tavern so with the trio of adventures starting up you can get up with another group? I can't run a follow-up to this one, although I had the intention of doing it....
Let me know and we can go either way.
Oh... and MM3 monsters are way more deadly than previous monsters.

As the dragon roars in pain from the assault of Crag, the ground explodes outwards as sharp projectiles fly everywhere, Meepo's small size protects him, but the other heroes are less fortunate. The dragon then jumps onto Crag and nearly tears the warforged apart.
The wraith sees that the dragon is far more dangerous to it than expected and phases through the floor, escaping the situation.

re: ooc
I'm not sure that there will be anything left to wrap up after this fight! But if we do survive, I'm game for continuing. Too bad about Meepo, though. My dreams of an all-kobold party have been dashed.
This may seem like a TPK in the making, but I think we're still in the fight. Now we don't have to worry about the wraith. If Crag can keep the dragon's attention (and that will be absolutely key), I think he can stay alive long enough for us to kill the dragon (or at least force it to flee). Second Wind and his warforged racial ability will keep him alive at least one round. I think Meepo has some healing left also, and Jax has a potion of healing he can give to Crag. I'd say, if the dragon stays on Crag, we have 3 or 4 rounds.
Can we do the deed in that time? And can Crag actually be threatening?

Crag lies motionless in the pile of debris. The continuing sounds of battle echo distantly as if he were deep underwater. His limbs legs twitch involuntarily; his sight wanders listlessly across the dark ceiling; his sword hangs loosely in his grip, where it will remain forever. The nothingness has come to claim him once more. Why can't he fight against it?
Were those years in the guard for nothing? All that time, I was searching. For what? Who am I? How can this dream end before I find out? ... How can Terra abandon me? Crag's eyes jolt open! No, not abandoned! The screams of pain from his allies, the whooshing of Meepo's whip, the stomping of the dragon's claws as it approaches for the killing blow - they crash against the warforged all at once. He tightly grips his sword and rises to his feet. The shattered blocks of earth float up with him, adhering solidly to his chest like a new suit of adamantine armor. It may have taken every ounce of his will, but Terra is still his ally - not the dragon's!
Crag stands tall, apparently unharmed by the horrendous damage he just suffered. Defiantly, he says "Is that all you've got?"
Jax emerges from his hiding place covered in the shards of stone, but unscathed. He figures the battle is lost when he sees his allies (with the exception of his scalebrother) lying on the ground in pools of blood and... warforged... juice. But one-by-one they rise to their feet: even Crag who suffered the earthquake attack as well as the pair of bites. Jax may have been spared death just a moment ago, but he is not a complete idiot - only immediate, decisive action will save the day.
The rogue leaves his safety-corner behind and leaps into melee once again. He can't quite move into a flanking position, but Crag's one-liner is distraction enough. Jax pierces into the dragon's forelimb, causing a spray of blood that immediately drenches the kobold, and then retreats a few paces behind a lump of rubble.
