6 PCs of 6th level. Lair used to belong to an Ancient Blue, now is home to her daughter a Young Blue. The dragon employs Troglodytes as vassals since they are the nearest intelligent humanoids she had to work with.
This should only be 3 encounters. I dont have the maps in a format I can put on here. I am looking for interesting encounter combos. The final encounter should be a level 9 encounter, with the 2 before it being 7th and 6th level, respectively.
The entrance to the lair complex is thru a cave which is accessed from the sea. At the time the PCs plan to enter it will be low tide and the cave mouth will only be half full of water with land gradually rising once inside. It is a seaside cave mountain which rises up and the dragons chamber is at the top with another cave opening to the sky.
The dragons chamber will include a Volatile Haze from Draconomicon 1 and a pit obscured by said haze which contains the body of the elder dragon along with part of the hoard. There will be a ledge in the dragons chamber which will have the current inhabitant perched on it so she can strike from the air.
Just looking for good ideas, creature combos, traps, etc.
