"They must make one killer omelete." He chuckled. "But if there's dragon eggs down here, there must be dragon hatchlings." He said. "We need to be wary. The good thing is that if there are dragons down here, these tunnels must have been widened, meaning we have a good chance of finding one to the vaults..."

Llarays stared at the eggs in wonder. "Should we take some..?"

"I'd be afraid they'd hatch on us, or somebody else..." Leiden said. "Then again, a dragonling could be worth a lot of money to the right buyer..."

"Let's get moving," Leiden said. "We've dallied enough. We're moving south-we..." Leiden cut out mid sentence. He heard a distinct growling coming from behind the group. He turned around, to see a snarling, drooling dragonling, that looked very, very hungry.
Spoiler:
3 roll of 40 necessary to kill this. Failure to roll a 30 is injury/death. I'll let someone else take the first roll.

Spoiler:
30...
Qa'Mhirr ran to the front to get a clear shot at the young dragon, "Quickly, before it alerts more," he said in a low tone as he took aim.
The dragonling was faster then he thought and had already gained a lot of ground on him, firing off a bolt early, only to have it glance off its back.
The dragonling's jaws sweeping at Qa'Mhirr, who vanished with the sound of warping metal
He reappeared a few feet from the group with some cogs dropping alongside him, his right arm missing one of its protective plates and steam shooting out.
Turning back and bolting behind the group, "Um...this one remembered, there's a stone over here khajiit must inspect first," he said with a calm veneer, panic in his eyes.

Spoiler:
30 too
Leiden pulled his dagger, standing in front of Qa'Mhirr. The beast snapped at him, and he dodged to the right, bringing his dagger down with him. He missed, and the beast swiped at him. He barely got out of the way before the claws slashed the air next to him. He scrambled away, ready to take another swing.

Uf, 36
Llarays took an arrow, immediately, the dragonling swiped at him, and the claws almost broke the bow. Jumping backwards, Llarays
shouldered his bow, and drew his sword, ready for hitting and running.

This time, when Leiden swung his dagger, it did not miss. Running forward, and jumping, he slashed at the beasts torso. It reared up on it's hindlegs, roaring in pain. He landed on the other side, drawing his sword, and preparing his next strike.

Spoiler:
41 :)
Nightrunner drew his sword, advancing on the dragon. Leiden's slash had wounded the beast and it had brought up it's wing to protect it's head and body. Nightrunner could think of only one course of action. He brought down his blade in a broad sweeping arc, tearing a massive gash in the creature's wing. The dragon screeched in pain and then began to back away, down the dark corridor, wimpering softly.

"Kill it!" Nightrunner shouted. "It's trying to escape!"

50+3 (five 6s, two 5s, two 4s and a 2 + 3)

Thoryn leapt at the Dragon's flank and swung himself up onto its back. He clung to one of its large spines as the beast shook and roared, then, choosing his moment carefully, he drove his blade deep into the base of the creature's neck.

Spoiler:
Totally forgot the +3
As Leiden saw the beast fall, he suddenly became aware of how much noise they had been making. "We need to get moving." He said, looking around hurriedly. He lead the group away from the battlefield quickly, towards their destination.

The further into the tunnel system they went, the more dragon infested it became. The group narrowed avoided the dragons, and reached the south western corner of the city. But the route inside would not be easy...

"Hold it," Leiden hissed, getting down onto his knees. The architecture had changed to a Dunmer style, but the dragon infestation had not stop. From inside the vault could be heard a deep rumbling noise. "There's almost certainly more dragons in there..." He muttered. The ground was shaking gently from the rumbling. "A big one..."

One day is not quiet, I was waiting for Duru to attack and haven't been on here since yesterday
Plus, not much can be said with an undefined enemy around the corner other than one-liners or reservations
"Not it," Qa'Mhirr whispered, "Why don't you give them a warm welcome and say hello, Leiden?"

"Looks like this is it..." Leiden muttered. "End of the road. It's been... a journey." He said. Looking into the tunnel. "I won't get all emotional on you guys," he said. "But I wouldn't be here with anyone else." He drew his sword. "Let's kill us a dragon."

Into the vault, it became clear that it was intact. The rumors about dragons hiding away wealth seemed to hold water, as they walked deeper into the lair. The rumbling got louder, and louder until they finally saw it. A dark green, adult dragon. At first, Leiden thought they might be able to sneak by. And then it's eyes opened. It roared, breathing a spray of frost toward the group. Darting around the corner, they narrowly avoided getting hit.
Spoiler:
30 is the survival roll. The dragon requires 7 35's, 6 40's, 5 45's, 4 50's, or 3 55's. After the dragon fight, we each write an ending for our character (if they survives) ala Fallout New Vegas/Dragon Age: Origins. It's been a great RP guys, and I'm glad I started it. Stay tuned on WF for more Frontier RP's, and some other one's I'm preparing

Spoiler:
35 survival, 35 attack roll :lol:
"Oh my Nord hair Dragon balls!" Llarays exclaimed, paralyzed in fear. He drew his sword, and suddenly a thought of his best friend, Liroy Brown Jenkins, flashed through his mind. He charged the dragon, and slashed it on the head. The sword created a shallow gash along the dragon's forehead, but it was enough to momentarily anger him and stop him.

Spoiler:
Survival roll, 35
Qa'Mhirr dove out of the path of the wall of frost careening towards them, rolling upright and loading a bolt into his arm.
Spoiler:
Attack roll, 37
He let fly his bolt into the dragon's hide, barely sinking in the beast's hardened scaly skin; it didn't even take notice.

Spoiler:
36 +3? Survival Roll; 43 + 3 = 46 Attack Roll; How are you going to work rolls of differing magnitudes together? I.e., how many rolls of 35 does a roll of 40, 45, 50, 55 count for, and how many do we need to make from here (because 7*35 = 245, while 3*55 = 165). Also, does the +3 count for survival rolls or only for attack rolls?

Thoryn bore the brunt of the blast on his shield, the cold penetrating through his armour, making him shiver. As the Dragon's maw snapped shut and the stream came to an end, Thoryn charged forward, striking the beast's muzzle with his now frost-coated shield, the full weight of his body behind the blow. Not waiting, he took the opportunity to strike the Dragon upon its foreleg as he skirted around its side, darting back at the first opportunity as the Dragon's attention turned back to his companions.

Spoiler:
Only for attack rolls. 41 + 3. A roll above counts as 1.5 rolls before, or a half roll up. So 2 35's and 5 40's kills it, and 4 40's, a 35 and a 45 kills it.
Leiden charged out from behind the wall, charging it, jumping at the hulking horror. His dagger glinted in the light, and he stabbed it in the eye. It roared, and Leiden's dagger got stuck off in its eye as he fell to the floor, rolling out of the way.

Spoiler:
Survival: 32 (phew!) Attack: 30 + 3 :(
Nightrunner dived to the side as the frost spewed from the Dragon's mouth. His sword and shield went clattering to the ground, skidding away from him across the floor. He cursed under his breath and got to his feet. Looking to his right he could see his sword glimmering in the corner of the room. It was giving off a strange pulsing glow that he hadn't noticed before. He ran to it and scooped it off the ground. Brandishing it in two hands he ran at the Dragon, hoping to make a powerful swinging attack.

I see. Got a 36 + 3, oh so close.
Llarays jumped back, readying himself for another charge. Crouching a bit down, he ran to the dragon, jumped on the dragon's head, and leaped onto the back of the creature. He then plunged his sword down.

This ended too quickly... meh. It's been a fun RP guys :D . 31 + 3 = 34. Somebody else gets to finish it
Leiden charged at the dragon, swinging his sword at it's neck. He narrowly missed, dodging it's snapping mouth.

Spoiler:
Do we still need a survival roll? If so 44 survival roll and 39 + 3 Attack roll. Either way 47 or 42 on the Attack Roll should be enough to finish it?

Thoryn saw Leiden's attack and used the distraction to once more make his move, with a roar he leapt at the Dragon, plunging his blade into the base of its neck and dealing a horrific blow to the beast before it had a chance to defend itself or inflict further harm upon he and his companions.

And with that, the beast fell. The last obstacle to their goal was gone. The group stood in the room, filled with more wealthy than they had ever seen, and stood there for a minute, dumb-founded at what they had actually done.

Once the loot had been sold, and divided between the four, the group went their separate ways, for the most part. Bad blood, or just reluctance to settle down drove them apart, and in the end, they were on their own in the new world they had helped shape.

Leiden used his earnings to fund an expedition to retake Vivec. Once purged of dragons, it was set about being rebuilt. The lands nearby were mined, and the land of Vvardenfell was recognized again as an Imperial Province. For his part, Leiden was given the surrounding lands of Vivec, and a manor in Cyrodiil. Morrowind began to be rebuilt, for the first time in centuries.
