Dungeon 14 Turn 0
————
Ricki and her courageous companions opt to wait for the monstrous lizard to depart the cavern once more, so that they might explore while it busies itself with its predations. If they are swift, they may well be able to locate both sufficient fortune and the source of these unnatural beings before the monarch of this place ever returns.
Standing in their way, however, is an unknown number of fanatic zealots and lesser squamates. What forms shall their adversaries wear? What terrible weaponry shall they wield? What—
“Uhhh.”
“Hello?”
…Hmm?
“Oh, don’t mind me.”
“Just pretend I’m not here.”
Ricki decides to ignore the dwarven maiden (distracting though her beauty might be) at this time.
The rough crevice leads into a carefully carved subterranean facility. The entryway is easily spacious enough to accommodate the mighty frame of the one Ricki chose to dub King. It would be a challenge to escape from the beast should it return, and so she refocused on her goal within this dungeon.
To disrupt the production of this place would only be to the good; if it could be discovered how these creatures were produced, removing that capacity would no doubt stymie the dragon tamers’ efforts for years to come. On a more daring path lay the possibility of destroying the King itself. Surely it was the pride of this place, if not its absolute master, and so its removal, too, would qualify as a great success.
But could it be done? Time alone would tell.

Dungeon 14: The Dragon Factory
Goal: Disrupt the source of the elemental reptiles OR defeat the Tyrant Lizard King.
Time Limit: On turn 30 the Tyrant Lizard King will return to the dungeon and begin to patrol. It knows its domain well and does not suffer intruders.
This dungeon can be abandoned.
Plan: prep.
Mac: item press tower shield. Drop the new tower shield on the floor after. Move right (upper).
Kamau: move down ladder and cleave kobold group. Focus on cultist, then 1 shielded miner, then the unshielded miners.
Ricki: talk to the dwarf. Asked her what shes doing here and what she knows about this place. Move down ladder and right after.
Botania. Summon plant. Stay on the upper area and keep that torch out for Kamau to see.
Botania can’t move into melee range until shield is ready. She can pick it up next turn
Mac is scouting right with Ricki on different floors so one or both of them may be able to scout further. Mac has lots of smiffing to do so he can scout and do is own thing for bot. Upper area is probably devoid of things since boss patrols up here.
Kamau is clearing this mob first since we probably have to clear them anyway. Botania is giving him light so no miss chance.
First things first, obviously. Lara’s not here so flirt with the maiden.
Lmao, has she been narrating the story up to this point?
Probably not. The prose is now noticably more purple. She just took over.
Odd. For me, it’s just white and the only difference is that’s in italics.
Holy crap, big snake went from miniboss to not even a solo fight. Act 3 is scary >.<
Makes me more worried about that scorpion….
