[QUOTE="Derren, post: 1649474, member: 2518"] A old shadow dragon should kill you easily especially at night. Imo the only chance for you to win is either pure luck (and lots of it), the DM lets you win or the DM doesn't know how to play dragons. Especially at night there isn't much you can do. You attack spells will fail most of the time and melee attack also wouldn't hit very often. And this dragon is almost equal to your spellcasting power, so don't expect your spells to survive a dispell from it. But thats basically also true for black dragons, so maybe you have a chance (because one of the tree situations I described above is true) although a shadow dragon is quite a bit stronger than a black one. How many party members are there in total, have you time/ressources and the possibility to buy equipment and can you set the time of the encounter? If you can, don't attack at night. Thats suicide. Your best hope ist that this isn't a shadow dragon, but a black one who used its darkness ability when you watched it. [/QUOTE]
