Can they win? Certainly. Without knowing the players themselves, it is hard to put a specific prediction on what their chances are, but there is nothing indicating they are guaranteed success or doomed to failure. I suspect, given they have expended some resources and are up against a rather tough fight, that there is more likelihood of defeat than in many encounters. Given the dragon's nature as a Lurker, and its ability to create darkness, a lot will depend on the terrain and their tactics, whether they keep it on the move and force it out into the open, and so forth.

Given the party composition, they have a decent bit of everything they need (healing, damage, durability), and if they are all built as effectively as the archer, should be able to deliver solid damage if they can get the dragon in the open. I'd say if they play the battle intelligently, they have a very good chance at success without any deaths. If they don't, or if the dragon makes exceptionally good use of the environment, then things may go badly - and if the dragon manages to take out their heavy hitters first, things will be looking pretty bad.

But again... every fight has random chance, every fight will change difficulty based on how good the players are and other specifics. The party definitely can defeat the dragon - the potential is certainly there - but is by no means guaranteed.

5ever, or until 2024
Mearls wrote a D&D adventure for D&D Experience called Scalegloom Hall that had a Black Dragon fight with 1st level pre-gens that resulted in a lot of near or full TPKs.

I would say they will most likely die.


And based on this I think they have a chance.

Maybe not a high one...

There are a number of factors, but if played right, the dragon should win that fight.

Do the players have any item powers left? These may help.

Do the players have some terrain advantage over the Dragon? This too may help.

How good are the players' tactics? If they are good, that's another plus, but looking at the number of healing surges remaining and the number of daily attack powers they have used, I suspect not very good. It seems they all blew their dailies too early. So the PC's will likely fail to slay the dragon.

And a question, how does the dragonborn fighter have 46 hitpoints? With 14 Con (judging by the 11 surges) and toughness, at second level he would have 40. If he has 15 Con, he would have 41. How does he have 46?

What kind of Bastard DM are you to put a Dragon after a fight that didn't give the ma Milestone? ;)
Breaking all rules, the DM level the party from level 1 to level 2 in between encounters with no time to rest.

At first (1) level the party just finished the following battle before the Black Dragon fight is about to begin.

8 Kobold Minions
1 Kobold Wyrmpriest
2 Kobold Dragonshields
3 Kobold Slingers
5 Kobold Skirmishers

Taking on 19 creatures was a tough fight (which is why the Fighter used 5 healing surges). However, the caveat is that we've only played two sessions so far and are not masters of 4th edition tactics yet.

...we've only played two sessions so far and are not masters of 4th edition tactics yet.

With this information in hand, the fight will likely be a TPK.

Otherwise, I'd give the party good odds. I've been amazed at times how much damage low level PCs can put out in a very short time. With six characters, I'd be betting against the lone dragon.

Black Dragons suck. If you don't have a couple drow in the party or don't catch the dragon sleeping and get lucky, a 2nd level party (with their dailies) is going to get TPKed. And if they don't it'll be a very long, drawn out, not very fun fight.

I think the party would be fine, there are six of them. i had a white dragon go against 4 characters and they survived. Those 4 were at full strength and the White Dragon is a level 3, but beside that there are six in this group and the dragon is a level 4. The characters in my game were either level 1 or level 2. I posted a log of the game below (the game was run using OpenRPG, see sig for more information):

Session 2

(365) GM: The group starts in Gilbus Tarn's Inn in Frost forge, a small village in the high snowy

mountains. Gilbus is a retired Dwarven adventurer. Over dinner Gilbus tells of a group of youthed

humans who took off to hunters Pass and got caught in a snow storm. He offers some items left in

an old cairn up there if the heroes will go and find the humans, as he is sure they will end up

in trouble. Along the way they are attacked by a band of kobolds and the retreating slinger

attacks the surviving skirmisher who surrenders, and the retreats himself.
(365) GM: Once they head up hunters pass they are attacked by wolves and find the cairn Gilbus

spoke of.
** (368) Harbek treks through the wind and snow "Bah, when is this going to clear up

friends....friends? where did those tall folk go?" **
(343) Darsha: "Lost in a drift?"
** (355) Osh'lem shivers, obviously don't like the cold **
** (368) Harbek looks at Darsha and thinks back trying to remember where the group had found her

"Aye...err....Aye, probably lass. Have we met before? My mind sometimes rusts on me" **
(365) GM: You stand before an small opeining that leads into a cairn on hunters pass as gilbus

described to you. Nature checks
(368) Harbek: [1d20+1] => [18,1] = (19)
(343) Darsha: "I'm not sure. I just found myself on this path somehow."
(355) Osh'lem: [1d20+1] => [11,1] = (12)
(343) Darsha: [1d20+3] => [18,3] = (21)
(368) Harbek: " Well a dwarf is obviously trustworthy enough for me. Name is Harbek"
(355) Osh'lem: "I am only here cause I heard there are portal in these parts"
(343) Darsha: "Darsha."
whispering to Darsha, yo spot small tracks going into the cairn...
(343) Darsha: "Portal? Mebbe it is hiding in da hole?"
** (368) Harbek jumps and turns to face the other person "Oh...well as long as your not like the

young humans that ran here. They heard of a dragon and got themselves caught" **
(368) Harbek: Description: Hardek stands at 4'6", weight a stocky 200lbs. Unlike other dwarves,

his red beard is unbraided and uncombed, giving him a wild appearance. His plates of his scale

mail is unpolished, loosely fits, and appears to be a combination of other various pieces of

armor. His hammer however is just the opposite. The maul is polished, shining its steel with a

gold trim. The hammer's shaft contains runewords in the metal handle in dwarven, and its obvious

that this weapon was meant to be used in combat and to intimdate those that might face it.
** (355) Osh'lem realize he is the tallest one in the group... for a change **
(343) Darsha: "Hmmmmph there is a lot of small prints going into that hole or cairn there."
** (355) Osh'lem stands at 5'6, wearing nothing but a robe, his horns carefully hidden behind his

shroud **
(367) metroknight (enter): 22:08
(368) Harbek: "Small? Like kobold prints? You know the bounty on those went up to 8gp a head"
** (343) Darsha is around 4' tall and about 156 lbs. **
(368) Harbek: "Maybe that slinger?! Oh, lets get him"
(355) Osh'lem: "bah! If they dare to stand between me and that portal, 8gp a head won't be

enough to save them if they offered it to me"
(343) Darsha: "Really? Well they are small is all I know. I'm better at figurin' out big

things than small ones."
** (368) Harbek walks/jumps into the hole and into the now dungeon **
** (355) Osh'lem darts his head left and right **
(367) metroknight: Disconnecting from server...
(367) metroknight (exit): 22:09
** (355) Osh'lem doesn't trust the dwarves, those greedy bastards... waits for the other dwarf

to go down before he does **
** (343) Darsha follow her compatriot to make sure he stays out of trouble. **
(371) Zander (enter): 22:11
(371) Zander: hi
(371) Zander: open?
(368) Harbek: (hello)
** (355) Osh'lem follows the short ones, keeping an eye out for everything that indicates signs

of magic **
(365) GM: As you enter you smell dung. The floor is covered in ice and snow but it is warmer in

here than outside, though it stinks. Several lanterns lie nearby, broken alongwith spilled

flasks of oil. The oil isn't frozen but is thick because of the cold.
(343) Darsha: "No fires!"
(365) GM: A broken wooden door leads into a hall. It is quiet
** (355) Osh'lem summons a dim-light, hiding it behind the sleeve of his robe **
** (368) Harbek looks around the cave a moment, adjusting his hammer and heading toward the door

**
(365) GM: Oshlem's light imbues teh place with shadow and light
** (343) Darsha glances around .... "sure stinks huh?" **
(368) Harbek: "Kobolds always do...."
** (355) Osh'lem tries to stare into the darkness, forcing his eye to focus **
** (355) Osh'lem flicks flames with his other hands, the oil have ignited his pyromanic instincts

**
(355) Osh'lem: *hand
** (368) Harbek opens the door out of the hole and into the hallway **
(371) Zander: (?)
whispering to Zander, hola
(355) Osh'lem: Perception: [1d20+1] => [11,1] = (12)
** (355) Osh'lem stays in the back and stares down the hall **
(365) GM: ((ok i need a marching order please)) Oshlem sees a string of broken wooden doors down

the hall, two more within his sight range.
whispering to Zander, if you have a 4e character 22pt buy, lvl 1 you can get in the game
(368) Harbek: ((low light see anyting?))
(355) Osh'lem: ((I will probably be last behind our meat shield :3))
(343) Darsha: (( I think Har / Darsh / Osh
(365) GM: Harbek sees a string of broken wooden doors down the hall, two more within his sight

(368) Harbek: "My hammer will go first if none of you mind?"
(343) Darsha: "Fine I'll try to back it up with mine."
** (368) Harbek walks forward toward the hall to the next door **
** (355) Osh'lem got an idea.= **
** (368) Harbek opens the next door **
(365) GM: You go to the next door... perception checks everyone
** (355) Osh'lem hunch over the broken laterns, starts a small ritual **
(355) Osh'lem: [1d20+1] => [13,1] = (14)

(365) GM: SURPRISE ROUND
(365) GM: Harbek goes forth and a larger than life rat dive out from under a fallen door as two

kobolds present themselves, snarling. Another kobold further up the hall appears as well
(368) Harbek: "Ambush!"
