Kinda off-topic, but do we have any idea how quickly half-fiendish children grow up?

Azema's children with that unnamed Dothraki should be around three years old, if they are yet alive.

It depends of the fiend.

@DragonParadox, the Zherys part feels a bit rushed.

True, the chapter was getting rather large so I pushed it to the next decision point. What do you guys think should I expand in this chapter or the next?
 
Ah...the satisfaction you get when your enemy knows he's well and truly fucked, so resorts to the classic "whatever they're paying you, I'll double it" line.

Beautiful.

A blue dragon? One of the more friendly dragon types though also more arrogant and vain

Also one of the most hedonistic.
Your average Blue will be much more likely to leave you alive or even work with you if it gets him exotic food, rare drink, interesting art and fascinating company than any other chromatic. Compare to Reds who'd be perfectly willing to roast you and end up eating burnt corpses over the slightest percieved insult.

Maybe we should let him/her work besides Azema.

[X] Ask that his agents work with Hermetia, she could use more foes to test her magic against, and it will give you some idea of just what Zherys' resources in Lys are

@Azel I kinda want to see Hermetia handle this.
Besides, she has some Erinyes and Ymeri's first servant in this mission was CR 12. I don't think they need Garin here.
 
@DragonParadox, can we get our loot identified? In addition to whatever he had in this chapter the Bey should have had lots of magical rings including this:
DragonParadox said:
The final salamander coils to strike, but the bey lazily extends a large but oddly graceful crimson-skinned hand. One of his many rings flares with harsh green light and the creature is frozen where it stands as if turned to stone, only the madly rolling eyes betraying its continuing rage. "You overstay your welcome upon the stage," he announces, faintly irritated as a man might be at a servant who has made a poor showing of himself.

And for what we stole from the Office of Taxation it should have been everything here.
DragonParadox said:
You trust the envy and the fear you hear in his voice if nothing else about him. As you walk deeper into the a palace, for you cannot call this place aught else, the lanterns are replaced with tall graceful windows far larger than those you saw from the outside. Some show the vista of the bazaar, a colorful ever-busy sprawl amid the sands. Others, however, look upon stranger things: a ruined palace that burn eternally with ghost-blue flame, a lonely crest upon which stands a strange dragonglass statue five times a man's height, a lake not of water but quicksilver and upon it an island that shines like gold. Are these true things seen from afar or false seemings wrought of sorcery?

At last you come to a hall that gleams like gold and silver like a jewelry box. Diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds are studded about the walls telling tales of long ago battles and conquests, of the victorious efreeti and their foes trod under foot. There are no seats but divans, like in the cities of the east, though these are obviously meant for a form far larger than any man. A sharp but pleasant fragrance fills the air, such as you have never encountered, but memories of an older time stir in warning... Not urgent as with the monsters and horrors whose natures are revealed to you in the midst of battle, but cautious.

To your surprise, the table set with golden cutlery, some strange and some familiar, is inset with amber. Trapped within like a common fly is the shape of a dragon hatching, its scales blue as the summer sky. You can only pray that the poor thing is dead.

Give em too Vee. She can smash the handle animal checks to make it whatever alignment.

A Wyrmling is not an animal.
It is fully sapient from birth. You have to use Diplomacy, not Handle Animal.

Do we know it for Succubi or Alu?

I'd definitely prefer Vee taking care of it over Azema.

Azema was mostly a joke.
I would like to get a read on it personally first, but generally my preference would be Dany, who has the most Diplo and knowledge of True Dragons besides Viserys himself.

And DP said long, long ago that it would help with her feeling of not fitting in between children or adults to have an intelligent Wyrmling around her. Something a bit like herself.
 
You know, y'all, the next action on the schedule for Viserys is finally sticking Amrelath into a new dragon suit. I wonder if he is feeling more Blue than Red?

The Blue Dragon hatchling will be worse than useless for years to come if we just Resurrect it somehow, but Amrelath could use it now without wasting a Valyrian Dragon egg.

You would need a different ritual for that.
 
@thread we never paid the prostitute for the info, I think we should bottle her untill our party get their mindblanks, then recruit her.

@DragonParadox a raid's profits does not feel real without a loot spoiler box ;)

That is of course assuming he'd take the color change. If what I recall about Dragons from D&D is true, they're quite racist on top of everything else.

Then again beggars can't be choosers and he'd probably appreciate anything better than a literal petrified skeleton.

Eh, it can try getting classlevels. We really shouldn't waste a True Dragon on a something a Valyrian suffices for.

Just bend our massive social skills to essentially brainwash it since it's so young.

Basically this.
And the more I think about it the more I like the idea of keeping it as Dany's companion.
She can continously diplomance it, which is more effective than an occasional talk with Viserys, no matter how overpowered his social is, and she would be the quickest to spot it if grandma tries anything.

I like the idea, but I'm not sure how much of a Chromatic dragon's nature is inherent.

They are also highly intelligent. Except for whites.

Blue Dragon Wyrmling: School? Why must I attend school like some sort of hairless ape?

Viserys: Because I said so. There is no room for ignorance in this family.

Blue Dragon: But I want to plan my conquest of Leng!

Viserys: School first, then homework, and only then are you allowed to plan your first conquest.

Blue Dragon: *sigh* Yes, father.
