Your melee fighters and summoned monsters, for instance.You blitz the dragon as planned. (almost 2 rounds being adjudicated)As Ubaar and Akharos charge, carrying a table in front of them, Alcar and Elone lay down some cover fire.  Alcar blasts it with holy light, singing it somewhat (15dmg) but not seeming to harm it significantly.  He procedes to begin summoning a Tojanda.  Elone fires a smoke arrow into the dragon's neck (20 dmg). Thick black smoke surrounds the dragon's head, impeding vision.  As Ubaar and Akharos jump towards the dragon and try unsuccessfully to grapple him, the dragon loudly roars, causing Ubaar and Akharos to forget what they are doing and instead fall into the water.  They manage to surface,  but feel the sound seems to have cased them to lose control of some of their muscles, which vibrate strangely. (Dazed one round, -8 str)Calain summons tentacles from the water to grab the dragon, but he is too strong.One of the tentacles grapples Akharos sucessfully (8 dmg).Alex finds himself caught up in the commotion and largely ignored.Round 2Elone and Alcar's summoned critters (A small tojanda,  a strange turtle-creature that can poke claws, fins, and a head out of the various openings in its shell, and an orca) appear to fight the dragon.  The tojanda is too small for the tentacles to bother with, and the orca too powerful for them to grapple.  the tojanda is entirely unable to bite or scratch through the dragon's armored skin, but the huge killer whale barrels into the dragon and tears a huge hunk out of its side (crit, 34 dmg).Ubaar and Akharos cannot do anything (the daze began after their actions).The dragon, angered by the attack by the whale says in draconic "Hungry blood winds of my fatherland, I call to you!  Gorge yourselves upon my enemies till the be but desiccated husks!"The air around everyone bleeds a red must, and you all feel your bodily fluids being sapped from you.  The water-based tojanda is vaporized.  The tentacles disappear. The mighty Orca is nearly slain, but lets out a deafening screech and continues to bore angrily into the dragon.  (PC DMG: Alex, Ubaar, Alcar, Calain take 37 dmg...Yes, you all made a DC20 fort save, you ridiculously lucky, um, hand-and-a-halfs?)The dragon then ducks underwater and moves under the boat.Alex (who can act b4 the dragon goes under water), Frian, and Calain still may still act this round.Post for next round, too.</blockquote>
