[QUOTE="Gilladian, post: 3473259, member: 2093"] I have a situation I could use some tactical advice with. The PCs have gotten themselves into a sticky situation and don't seem to realize it. They're in a small dungeon that WAS inhabited by a group of 12 or so kobolds and a young red dragon. The PCs went in while the dragon was out hunting (they'd already encountered him once outside) and killed all but 2 kobolds. They don't know any of the kobolds got away. They found a secret room neither the dragon nor the kobolds knew about and chose to hide there to recuperate (they are a 4th level wizard, 4th level druid and wolf companion, 3rd level fighter and 3rd level rogue, all half-elves). The dragon is CR 4. The dragon knows where they are. He is furious at them, but can't open the secret door. The kobolds can, but are scared to. So the dragon intends to wait the PC's out. He's using the kobolds to watch the entrance to alert him when the PCs emerge, and then ambush them. The kobolds are not sure whether the dragon is their friend or their doom, and are equally terrified of the PC's . All they want is to get away and find some girl kobolds, whom they haven't seen in years. Any good advice on how to challenge the PCs without slaughtering them? Here's a link to the whole adventure if you're interested... [url]http://vishteercampaign.pbwiki.com/Fiendish%20Dragon%20Lair[/url] [/QUOTE]
