The dragon spends most of his time in the mountains in the enemy camp. He does occasionally fly around and fire rocks into the city. From high altitudes and moving at reletively high speed , his rocks outrange anything the city can throw back at him. You guys could meet him in the air on any of his sorties. He is guarded by several manticores with hobgoblin archers and kobold sorcerors on board.
Possible tactics:
Box the demon in with curtain of light, wall of good, wall of cold etc and blast him with everything we got. Oh yeah, if Maggie or Barnak has access to Confusion/Command, that would be helpful too.
Alethia's longbow has frost capabilities, so she'll probably be using that to good advantage.
+5 Composite Longbow Flaming, Feybane, Holy, Frost.
Oh, prior to the fight, Alethia will cast Path of the Exalted to recieve some advice on how to use their strengths to kill this beastie.

Maggie has confusion, but it is unwise to expect the demon not to save against it, and she has better multitarget stuff, as her attack spells are usually buffed up firebrands for multiple targets or individual save or lose spells like forcecage, hold, or dominate. Since she has Arcane Thesis and Elven Spell Lore in Firebrand, as well as Energy Sub (Electricity), she's best off using her Maximized Electricity Subbed Firebrand (memorized as an L7 thx to Arcane Thesis) to do 90 dmg to everything, save for half. That, or her empowered one she'll follow up with or quicken with her banesword, should hurt the dragon and kill off his guards.
The spell helps you calculate an appropriate position to hide invisibly at to maximize the likelihood that the dragon will pass near you, based on his previous routes. It reminds you that he is probably immune to fire, vulnerable to cold, has DR/ holy and cold iron as power demons would, has a very scary breath weapon of fire you sohuld buff against, could, as demons tend to, see invis so cloud cover should be added to help hide you.

OCC: OK, just need to know how much cash we have, to possibly buy buffing items. Since we likely have a bunch of stuff, I'd say that we ignore the lower level magic items and instead get a gp equivalent. Only the more potent ones should be of interest to us.
Also, did the spell say anything about acid vulnerability (the demon being made of metal)?
OOC: Steve, my cohort cleric can cast a number of protection vs energy (fire) spells (and so can Fin) which would give us each at a minimum 140 hp of fire damage reduction. No buff items required.
We are going to need some reliable and speedy means of flight and probably a failsafe should the demon dispel it. Perhaps potions of FLY and multiple castings of feather fall?
Since the fight seems like it will be in the air. It looks like you spell casters will have to bring it down. Us melee types will be human shields. Bringing the wallop if it tries to close.

Mouth watering goodness.....
Alethia is buying a ring of feather falling and adding Icy Burst and Seeking to her Composite longbow.
Oooo. Alethia still has a decanter of endless water. I wonder what kind of damage one of those will do to a demon made of magma? And what about immovable rods? I've heard some neat things about them when used as a weapon.
