The dragon sat calmly upon his mountain of treasure, idly tapping at a chain with one of his talons. His gaze was focused on the group of adventurers before him, a group that was trying to start to climb up his mountain of treasure. He rolled his eyes, annoyed once more that he was being awakened by some troublesome band of do gooders. Why did they never let him rest on top of his treasure. He would be content here for a few centuries or so. After that they would have something to worry about. But nooooo, they just kept coming.
The mighty dragon pondered hiring security and laughed, his great booming voice filling the hall. Udarn! Udarn! Deal with these pesky people and then go find me some sort of security beyond yourself. Traps perhaps. Or maybe undead that you can raise. I don’t really care so long as they don’t disturb me as well.
…
Udarn where are you? … Udarn? The dragon frowned, an impressive feat for such a being and an absolutely terrifying one as well. Uggghhh. Typical halfling. Never around when you need him. The dragon yawned as he surveyed the group more closely and then focused his full gaze upon one person in it. If Udarn wasn’t here to deal with this he would just recruit someone else to deal with it.
The dragon teleported then, certain in his observation that the group was staying in one spot and was not going to move. The leader of the group, a human warrior of some kind, suddenly found himself face to face with an enraged red dragon and the entire group suddenly found themselves to be wreathed in fire. An arrow struck him in the nose and then he responded with a short stoppage of time. Another teleport to above the group of explorers and a usage of his personal magic to create a ring of fire around them and then the stoppage of time ended.
The colossal dragon collapsed his wings then, dropping like a rock down onto the adventurers and squashing them all under his weight. Another teleport and he was back at the top of his mountain of gold. The red wyrm glanced at Udarn’s phylactery and snorted. When your body reforms halfling you will clean up the bodies and acquire some sort of security for me. I am going back to sleep now.
Good day.
