So, why are you attacking, again?
According your recent informations, only two wyrmlings should delve in their lair for the moment : what your organization labels as a tunnel drake, expert in labyrinth, pits and earth magic, alongside to a river drake, waterbreathing creature.

Why not a full army? A small, discreet, assassin squad was deemed more fit by the strateges of the guild.

What is the plan? The lair the dragons have claimed is an ancient troglodyte settlement built upon a network of caves. Your team will enter the cave, kill both dragons, get out.

You are yourself a dwarf adventurer (Rank 3)
You have a budget of 40 points.
Your team can be made of :

>Adventurers (Rank 3). Quality over quantity (Cost : 10 points/Adventurer, write-in about abilities, you can use following classes as a template)
>Spellcaster (Rank 2). People able to channel the winds of magics (7 points, choose a magical path. Examples : Water, Air, Fire, Earth, Creation, Destruction, Light, Shadow, essence, illusion)
>Soldiers (Rank 2). Good fighters, with weapons and armors (5 points/Soldier)
>Specialist (Rank 2). Less skilled at fighting, they each have an unique ability providing utility. (4 points/Specialist, you'll have to write-in their special ability. A Lumberjack can, for example, cut down trees to create wooden beam that a Miner can use to stabilize a dangerous part of the tunnels. Be creative.)
>Commoners. Strength in numbers (1 point for 5 first, then 2 points, then 3. You got it already.)

Regarding races :
Usual fantasy races allowed, although they might be adapted to the world. But a choice is to be made :
>Use people of various origins. An elven archer is more accurate than a dwarven. A dwarven guard would be sturdier than an halfling. However, they will prove more difficult to command
>You are a dwarf, student of a dwarf, from a dwarven order. Dragons are a bane of your race, and your race will deal with it. (Bonus to leadership and cohesion)

>>5564819
>Adventurers (Rank 3)
1 combat engineer. Armed with a crossbow and a warpick. Knows how to build, dismantle and repair fortifications and traps on the fly.
>Spellcaster (Rank 2).
Light or Essence, whatever is the one that gets healing
>Soldiers (Rank 2).
3
>Specialist (Rank 2).
1 woodcutter to cut wood
1 miner to mine
>You are a dwarf, student of a dwarf, from a dwarven order. Dragons are a bane of your race, and your race will deal with it. (Bonus to leadership and cohesion)

>>5564819

>Use people of various origins. An elven archer is more accurate than a dwarven. A dwarven guard would be sturdier than an halfling. However, they will prove more difficult to command
instead

>>5564848
>Combat Engineer :
Accepting. He will get the skills "Engineering".
>Spellcaster :
Healing is under the path of either Creation, Light, Essence or, with enough bad faith, Water. Essence is the path of Nature and can, for example, temporally turn a stone elemental to a cold one so a fire spell deals more damages.

We are tied on race. Will wait for a tiebreak before proceeding.

Locking in the composition :

Combat Engineer :
>Grud'uk [Ork]
Spellcaster :
>Maëllyeva, Wood elf, path of Essence
Soldiers :
>Dimo (Human, Empire. Blunderbuss and Pavise)
>Urist (Dwarf, Heavy armor, Hammer and shield)
>Ervilan (High elf. Mirkwood Polearm)
Specialists :
>Smon, dwarven miner
>Jack, human (Equitaine) woodcutter

A team sent to slay a dragon is generously equipped. After all, the profits done by the guild ranging from selling the various reagents found in a dragon to magus, tough scales and claws to weapon makers, meat to gourmets and the rare sale of a dragon egg, the rare one of a live dragon to the men of the east gives ample supplies. And a team that fail? Next one will get their gear back - after all, dragons rarely do anything else from the gear than hoarding it.

You are yourself suited with an incredibly expensive dragon scale armor...
>Scales of the bouncy and rarely met Rubber Dragon. Effect : immunity to bludgeoning damages.
>Plated scalemail of the BlackSteel dragon : Extremely durable, it hardens in reaction to localized impact. Immunity to piercing damages.
>Ring mail of the porcupine dragon : The porcupin dragon scales are long an thin, similar to hair. This specimen's barbs have been coiled into ring, weaven into each other to create this chainmail, protecting wearer from slashing damages.

Your old friend and companion Grud'uk is donned with...
>Write in a good item for Grud'uk. For example, a draconic-enhanced crossbow can shoot elemental attack, Orichalcum jewelry mess with spellcasting, boots made from scale of a wind dragon allow uncanny mobility...

>You can also have 3 minor draconic objects for your followers : The elven double-sword could be made of Fire dragon claws for example.
>You pack 2 potions : What are they? Healing, stamina, growth, invisibility, Explosion, Poison, Ice? Feel free to be creative and write-in.

Grud'uk gets a tower shield from a recently killed golden dragon. How fancy!

-shattered soul of of a golden dragon that had been crystallized as a focus, for Maëllyeva
-Urist gets a giant maul made from the very same golden dragon
-Ervilan gets a cape made from the wing membranes from the same golden dragon

1 polymorph potion to disguise yourself as the dead golden dragon, the shock value will give you the upper hand!
1 potion of dragons breath. Not all dragons are fire proof!

Means that it was a curved tunnels going left, or a a straight tunnel that then went left?

Was this another right turn?

>>5566779
I see a problem with that map, you said that we turned left 3 times after the cliff before taking a right turn, but in that it is marked we took left only 2 before the right turn.
That's why mine made a loop and that one didn't

Here's all the information
a bit less than fifty meters on our left.
they span just a pair meter on our right.

On your left, a dead end two meters away.
In front of you, two meter tunnel turning left [does that mean it's curved tunnel?]
On your right, a six-meter long tunnel follows the cliff before turning left.
>Go right : After walking 6 meter,

On your right, a two meter corridor turns also left.
>Go right : At the cross, you advance two meter
you turn left. Two meter,
a right turn. Two more meter,

A cross section follows a two-meter dead end on one side [which one, left or straight?]
a six meter long one on your right. You proceed on the right

Three eager pick strike later, the wall give way to a torrent of brick-laced water.

The elf immediately stomp her staff on the ground, which holds still with projection of golden roots. She humms, the spirit around you regroups, and the nasty head bleeding stops.
Using her handkerchief, she tenderly wiped out dried blood using sprite-purified water, holding the head of the strong lumberjack on her knee, which slowly get back to consciousness.
It's the first time you hear the bass, gruff voice of the lumberjack.
"Are you one of the Mother's maiden?"

While they're discussing, you see behind the walled section a dead end, and a orange cristal glowing of the same light than the tunnel's strange barrier. You smash it, and both the crystal's shards and light vanish.

You proceed in the trapped corridor (6 meter), turn left (2 meter) then right (2 meter) and reach a cross. On your right, a two-meter corridor turning left. On your left, 6 meter ending on a T cross, with two goblins fleeing toward the left turn.

"Watch out"
Your old friend pushes the frail spellcaster out of arm way before rushing over the trapped zone.
>19 vs 5 : power word - rock in the face
The second goblin, seeing the successful shot of his comrade, redirect his own toward the best target. Seeing your armor, he elect to throw it at your orc companion. He meets it head first, in an organic sickening crackle.
As the stone activates the trap, and a good metric ton of rock collapse behind you, you can only discern the wood elf pulled out of harm's way by the lumberjack.

Yes, he had.

the goblins keep up poking there head, throwing stone at you and retreating. However, they stopped at the moment you bashed one head by returning the gifted rock with sufficient velocity.

it took another fair amount of time to collapse that wall, but your group is whole one again.

You proceed in the corridor, and several weird things happen.
First, only dead ends and a missin goblin.
Second, when you step in the last dead end, you hear a rumble...

Your group is reforming, putting Ervilan in the middle of the formation to protect the specialists.
The rumble intensifies.
>Jack : success
"Not wyrm! Collapse!"
He quickly put a few wooden pillars, saving the precious seconds necessary for your group to backtrack. Or at least, you think that's what you've seen : you and Grud'uk are separated from the other by an huge stone chunk, until the tunnel collapses completely.
"You're fine?

Grud'Uk, sprinting, lacked the awareness to avoid you, stumble on the prone you. You pick yourself up, ready to give him an hand, when bigger rocks start to fell.

You uncork your potion of healing with a teeth, pull and gulp it down. You can feel the sparkling, red, ham-flavored liquid going down your throat, your stomach. You then feel a pulsation, starting from your solar plexus to the tip of your toes. Every bruise and woe you suffer dissipate when the pulsation comes back, from your shatter bones in the feet to the nail that starts to ingrow, the minor bruises from the several rockfall you didn't even knew you suffered and the slight lumbar pain you get from your repeated nights on the naked ground.

You step forward. The 8-meter corridor has a right exit at 6 meter, and another one at the end, where rocks turns into sand. Sandpit? The lair of the earth dragon?
For now, you're glad of the exactitude of information.

You step in the sand, that shifts under your weight. You have to be ready and not stay as a sitting duck at the end of the tunnel.

You get away in a sandstone cave. You're really glad you're coming from a Nyctalopian race.

The wyrm is waiting for you, in company of... a kidnapped dwarf and a small greenskin?
