[QUOTE="TanisFrey, post: 5384334, member: 26948"] I said that I felt the dragon fared as well as can be expected when I was running him straight out of the MM with [B][U]no feats and no combat magic items[/U][/B] at all. The Setup to the fight: The caravan was a cover for the Baron of Cormyr to look into the reports of Drow attacks in the dales just over the pass. 5 of the PC plus my disguised dragon are with it. A meteorite passes very close over head and lands near by. 4 of the PC and a guard leave the caravan to investigate the meteorite. The caravan plans to keep on going and the party will rejoin later. The bored dragon slips out of caravans camp, changes into himself and chooses to join the investigation team. The gnome bard allows the now revealed dragon to tag along. The crash sight is more that a day ride away to they make camp. The fight: The vamp dim doors into the cleric tent and removes his holy symbol while trying dominate him. Wakes the cleric when the vamp bit him. The bard inspires greatness an some then inspires courge (+6/+7). The fighter runs up (unarmored) and helps the rouge and cleric trying to take the vamp. The dragon cast mage armor then breaths, no effect. The fighter is knocked out by subdual damage. The dragon steps in and does a full attack, claw and wing, no damage done through the DR. The Bard was strong enough to say she was going for help and teleported out. Per our discussion after with the DM, he said that the vamp knew that he had moments until some serious powerful backup arrived. He attack the dragon and the rouge and did over 3/4 of the dragons hit points in 2 hits and hits the rouge once. The dragon withdraws on the ground. The vamp knows out the cleric by subdual. The dragon not wishing to die when he has over 2000 years of life left, leaps into the air. The vamp knockout the grabs the downed fighter and dim doors away, the rouge is trying to use a wand of CLW on the vamp. A minute later the bard is back with a Paladin and 2 mages. the vamp was feeding a short distance away drops the nearly killed fighter and takes off. The DM rolled 1 point shy of max con damage to the fighter leaving him with a Con of 1. A couple of CLW on the wing and seeing the reinforcements encourages the dragon to land. We scry the fighter and find him off in the woods. End of encounter. Now my character faces some questions because: 1) She, a cleric of Sharress, seduced the Gay paladin of Sune. Very good disguise skill fooled him followed by using her 1 level of bard and the maxed out preform skill. 2) She did not tell anyone that her friend whom went off with Baron caravan was a dragon.
