*Alyshia, you gently work Spike free as he gripes.*
"Well now, if your hair grew up around me, I'd be secure, and you would have a fantastic hairstyle that would be the envy of the Underdark, and you know it," he mutters.
*Zykovian, around here you know that there's two caverns and about a half-mile of cavern in between here and Gardanax's lair. All amethyst dragons have the ability to instantly step between here and the Mineral Plane, but most of the young ones simply forget to use it. Gardanax won't, and he could get down here very easily, especially if he starts to miss Kelvarix from his post. Now would be a great time for an exit.*
*However, everyone knows that with the death of an older dragon, going down the carefully hidden passageways they came in would be folly and would reveal their location to the dragons. A quick, though dangerous way could be found by dashing through the mines themselves and try to escape in the confusion. Or you could hole up and wait, though the danger of being found is terrible. Or you could try to find one of Gardanax's escape routes. He has them around here, but they're known only to him and damn well hidden.*

*Zass'sk throws the dragon's words back at it, along with a right hook, rip-shattering kick, viscious hit with his tonfa, as well as taking out a chunk of the dragon's flesh with his teeth.*
"You'll pay for that, traitor!" he snarls, sinking his teeth and claws into your flesh. From behind a heavy bolt flies towards your head. Twising away, you strike the arrow deftly, and it goes flying into the cave wall. The dragonkin snarls at his inability to hit you with its crossbow. He drops the crossbow on the ground, and starts to draw his sword as he runs toward his master.

*Eleth, you were separated from the mindflayers and gaggle of skum you were helping out when one of overseers triggered a rockfall trap. You've been going through the caverns, trying to find another of the resistance, some slaves to assist, or some dragons to kill. As you start to work your way into the next cavern, you see and hear a sight which might be all three. There's one very angry dragon currently in battle with a lizardfolk. The dragon clearly isn't very experienced, and the lizardfolk seems to be getting the better of him. However, a dragonkin armed with a sword is running toward him from behind.*
*But the dragon is the biggest threat, it always is. The dragon surely knows you're there, but he's rather occupied at the moment. With a smile, you sight down your bow and release two arrows, watching with satisfaction as they bury themselves deep behind the dragon's shoulder.*
~~~
*Zass'sk, you watch, startled, and two arrows seem to whip out of the darkness to strike your foe. Looking behind the dragon you can't see anything but shadows.*
[OOC - Zass'sk hits with a 29, 30, misses with an 18, hits with Whispertree on a 27, and hits with his bite for a 30. He does a total of 55 points of damage. Dragon hits with its bite on a 27, with his claw on a 31, misses with his wing slap on a 19, and on his tail slap with a 15. He does a total of 16 points of damage. The dragonkin moves twenty feet closer. He is now 40 feet away from you. Eleth is 30 ft. away from the very occupied dragon, however it still has blindsense and thus he cannot get the sneak attack, and hits twice (25 and 24) for a total of 48 points of damage.]
