Here is the group of PC's entering the cave... Vampire Blackguard on Red Dragon Steed, Dwarven Assassin, Pixie Arcane Trickster, Dwarven Immovable Dude, Druid who is never in human form, Human Archmage, and Gray Orc Cleric.

The two dwarves get tired of wondering where the dragon is, and decide to go steal the gold (they have low INT's apparently)... so, of course, the dragon appears when they fly over to his cave.

The Vampire Blackguard flies up with his Fiendish Servant Red Dragon and attacks the dragon from behind!

The dragon casts Imprisonment on the Dwarven Immovable Dude and flies down to beat up on the casters...

The Archmage casts Freedom (via a Wish ring) to free the Dwarven Defender... just in time to be attacked by some little red dragons! The noise of battle wakes up some of the dragon's babies... who of course come to help. But they really are just annoying to a group of level 20 PC's. And the Colossal Red keeps beating on the Cleric.

The Colossal Red continued beating on the Cleric, while the Vampire solos the Huge Red. The Arcane Trickster continues to pummel the Colossal Red from the hallway with assorted spells, as does the Archmage. The druid summons an Earth Elemental to "tank" the Colossal Red, while the Dwarven Assassin continues to nail the big red in the back.

The Cleric, nearly dead, uses her Wish Ring to Teleport herself to safety in the far back left cave and heal herself to full. Meanwhile spells and claws continue to rage back and forth.

The babies have all fallen, and the Archmage casts one final spell to kill the Colossal Red (death spell, Colossal Red was under 100hp) and the group laughs in victory...

But not for long... one of the dragon's worshippers and friends teleports in at the beginning of round 6 and casts Time Stop. Dimension Door down to the dragon and uses a Wish to back to life. The party (all evil aligned) is depleted, so decides to hightail it. Archmage Teleports. Gray Orc Cleric (Travel Doman) Teleports). Pixie Arcane Trickster Teleports (Boots of Teleport). Vampire Blackguard Teleports (Boots of Teleport). Druid uses some spell to "travel through stone teleport".

But what happens to the Dwarven Defender and the dwarf Assassin who are now facing a freshly healer / resurrected Colossal Red and his 20th level Wizard friend?!?

Find out next time when the Dragon Hunters continue their quest for selfish pleasure paid for through the local Dragon Horde!

And the battle ends for the night. The Colossal Red fell, but in the same round he fell, his Wizard ally (who teleported in 6 rounds into combat) casts Time Stop and uses a Wish to bring the dragon back to life... the group teleported out (leaving the two fighters to a certain death), vowing to return again. Ah, the Evil Party not caring about each other... Everyone had a lot of fun, or so they tell me.
