[QUOTE="rushlight, post: 1674026, member: 3801"] In the end, everyone agreed that FoM wouldn't cut it. Poor green dragon - it was his own fault. He learned to be [b]sure[/b] the wizard dies when you snatch him up in your mouth. (Otto's is Verbal only... and I ruled that being inside the dragon's mouth qualified as "touch".) That poor dragon fell right out of the sky, and lay twitching on the ground (doing the Electric Slide!) as they hacked him down. Anyway, the other dragon there really couldn't help his buddy (clearly being a much lower caster level than the wizard) so he began straifing. He did a good job too... right up until he failed his save vs a [i]Feeblemind.[/i] After that, the PCs made short work of him too. In all, it was a memorable battle that took 2 sessions to complete, and nearly every spell from the wizard and cleric, not to mention a [i]Mass Heal[/i] and several more [i]Heals[/i]. The dragons were a Green Wyrm and an Ancient Blue I think, CRs 22 and 21 respectively. Both were polymorphed as Hill Giants, and were escorting the PCs out of a Hill Giant enclave the PCs had gone to visit. The PCs were unaware of their presence, but became suspicious - and then cast [i]Dispel Magic[/i]. That revealed both dragons, who promptly opened up with a Clinging Quickened Acid breath, and a Shaped Electric breath. That dropped the party to about 20-30 hps each, and put the Wizard at -3. But, one [i]Mass Heal[/i] later, they were up and fighting - and did a good job keeping their wits about them. The [i]Otto's[/i] was the lucky break - it took the Green dragon out for 4 rounds, and gave the PCs the ability to kill it quickly. At the end, the 21st level Ranger/Rogue had 7 hp and was hiding from the straifing blue dragon, the 21st level Wizard had 23 hp left and cast the [i]Feeblemind[/i] while flying in the air directly in the path of the oncoming dragon, the 20th level Fighter was hiding in a [i]Prismatic Sphere[/i] with just a few hps left, as the 20th level Cleric/Wizard stepped out of the [i]Sphere[/i] and hit the dragon with a [i]Firestorm[/i] to finish it off.
