I had stuff picked out already but was willing to take wishlists into account as possibilities.The Captain directs the sailors and the ship makes good time to the island. After sighting the large isle of Kythira, the Captain takes some measurements and turns to run parallel to the coast. "We're not headed to the big Isle itself, ya see." he whispers conspiratorially. "There's another smaller island just up the coast a ways. That's where the meet is gonna be and delivery was scheduled for."He eventually finds the place he's looking for, and you see a dock jutting out into the sea from the low island that appears off the coast. The vegetation is thick around the beach and you cannot see inland very far, but the silence is heavy with dread. Azrael commands the crew to tie off the ship and lower the gangplank to the dock. Striding off the ship, the Captain leads the group down the dock to the beach. Out of the jungle strides a large and powerful dragonborn male. He wears scale armor and carries a light shield on one arm and a longsword on his hip. Another identical dragonborn strides out of the jungle 20 feet or so down from the first. The first one stops walking about 20 feet from Azrael and puts its hands on its hips. "You are extremely late. The mistress is displeased with this delay and the apparent mishandling of her cargo. It seems that it has been lost and found and changed hands once again. This does not instill confidence in her for the possible state of her new belongings. You will unload all of the cargo and bring it onto the beach here for inspection before your payment is delivered."Azrael scowls, but nods. With a wave of his hand back at the ship, he instructs the crew to start unloading the cargo onto the dock and then moving it forward to the beach. The two dragonborn stand like statues, observing the unloading with cold eyes. As the last crates are set down, the crew wipes the sweat out of their eyes as the sun burns down on the hot sand. The waves lap at the shore and the two dragonborn nod to each other. "Payment time then..." From the jungle, a sound emerges that sounds like Brudd when he was hacking up a lung-full of snot to spit out into the ocean earlier in the voyage. The spitting sound is quickly followed by another and suddenly two of the tired crew members are screaming bloody murder as they fall to the sand writhing in agony and trying to claw the sticky globs of acid away from their faces as it smokes and eats away their flesh. Out of the jungle stride a pair of orange reptilian creatures the size of a man crawling on all fours. The membranes on the side of their heads quiver as they shriek a disturbing cry into the still air. The Dragonborn draw their swords and move to attack as well, unleashing a roar and a spray of acid at those in front of them before slicing with their swords at whoever is left standing...-Spitting Drakes take down 2 regular crew members. (Surprise round)-The first Dragonborn soldier (DS1) draws its sword and moves forward to unleash its acidic breath weapon at Alex, Azrael, and another crew member. The crewman drops dead and Azrael is burned badly. He stumbles away from the dragonborn, but the monster slices at him with its sword as the Captain moves away. He falls bloody to the sand and crawls away. Alex manages to dodge the acid spray unlike the Captain. <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1980375/" target="_blank">Dragon Breath attacks vs. Reflex (1d20+6=7, 1d6+2=4, 1d20+6=15, 1d6+2=4)</a>-The second Dragonborn uses the same tactics. <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1980381/" target="_blank">Dragon breath at Quag and Hrav vs. Reflex (1d20+6=16, 1d6+2=8, 1d20+6=16, 1d6+2=3)</a> Quagmire is hit for 8 damage, but Hrav just manages to dodge the breath weapon.---End of Surprise Round----Quagmire, Hrav, Girth, and Alex can go...Stat blocks please.
