[QUOTE="mmu1, post: 3999397, member: 319"] Our party got into a fight with a Large black dragon - it was tough, but eventually, things started going our way, and it retreated into a really unfriendly-looking fetid lake. My dwarven Barbarian waited long enough for the cleric to cast Freedom of Movement on him, then dived on in and gave chase, making various saves each round - apparently, the water had some sort of nasty ongoing effect, but I never found out what it was, since luck was with me and I didn't fail any. I chased the lizard down, and after something of a slugfest forced it to try to run for it again. It leapt out of the water, and started to fly away - my character surfaced, realized it was probably going to get away (our casters were low on spells and our ranged capabilities sucked), and out of pure frustration chucked his waraxe after it... I got a natural 19, which only barely hit because of the mess of penalties, rolled nearly max damage, and dropped it. We ended up mounting its head in the main room of a tavern we owned, and enchanting it so that one of the owners could speak an order for the bar staff in the offices we had in the back, and the head would animate and relay it in a booming dragon voice. I'm pretty sure it got used to send women drinks on the house at least once... [/QUOTE]
