Sam sauntered up to the entrance to the Cave of Dragons. He'd been here only once before, and had actually managed to make it through, with the help of another feral Drakein. Of course, the only reason they'd made it at all was because of a pathway they'd managed to find. They'd tried to fight a Diabi near the end and had been no match for it at all... But Sam was ready to test his strength again. This would be his final challenge. If he could make it anywhere near completing this Cave, then he would be ready... So, he'd left his son Carrion in the care of one of his clan-mates and ventured off. If he could make it through here, then surely he'd be ready to attempt the Drakenian ritual!
First die: If the number is 1-3, you encounter a Ysali dragon. If the number is 4, you encounter an Ayrala dragon. Second die: If the number is 1, you are nervous and take a 10% penalty to your luck chance. [So if your normal luck range against the dragon is 61-100, it is now 71-100. If it was 91-100, you must now roll a 100 to succeed.] If the number is 2-4, nothing happens and you fight as normal. The first room is fairly well lit with the light from the cave entrance illuminating the area. There, on the other side of the room, is a dragon!
The Alikein had heard tales. Tales of a cave filled with dragons. A cave where only the strong could survive, and all else would be crushed or eaten alive. Oblivion was not afraid in the slightest. Even since he was young, he had prowled and stalked, preparing for this day when he may show his clan how strong he truly was! The Diabi smirked as he landed before the cave, amused to see a large Gaili already there. Good. News of his prowess could spread to the other clans as well. "You are just in time." Oblivion told the other. "I have chosen to test my strength today. You may join me, Drakein."
Success: 46(5/46) = 5 exp / 2 cause of group. = 2.5 exp. x 2 for Blood Moon = 5 Exp is now 8/46.

"Sam speech."
The Gaili turned curiously at the sound of another voice. He'd really been expecting to take this challenge alone... But maybe having another along wouldn't be so bad... Even if this other clearly had a god-complex. Sam shrugged and decided to go along with it. Battling these dragons alone would be a chore, anyway. "Very well." He agreed with a nod before stepping into the cave. As he remembered, he hardly had to look for the beast before he spotted it: a Ysali this time. Sam could more than handle these creatures! Waggling his tail almost playfully, he bounded forward, letting his claws rip into its wings while his teeth tore into it's flank. he headbutted it roughly under its jaw, and then turned to sink his fangs into its throat. Sam almost felt bad. The poor thing had hardly put up any fight at all...
First die: If the number is 1-2, you encounter a Ysali dragon. If the number is 3-4, you encounter an Ayrala dragon. Second die: If the number is 1, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 2, you manage to feel very lucky and get a 10% bonus to your luck chance. [So if your normal luck range is normally 61-100, it is now 51-100. You cannot go below 6-100, though.] If the number is 3, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 4, you have encountered a Silx instead of a dragon. See "Creatures" below to see stats. You still fight just like in a dragon hunt, only against the creature instead of a dragon. This room is not as well lit as the previous room, but you can still see well enough to see the whole room. There, across the room once again, is your opponent.
Notes
Success (for previous Ysali): 10(5/1) = 50 exp / 2 cause of group. = 25 exp. x 2 for Blood Moon = 50 EXP is now 5/10.

"Oblivion speech."
Oblivion frowned as the Gaili walked ahead. What a rude fellow! Didn't he know he was in the presence of someone great and powerful? He should've been ecstatic to have Levi on his side! The Alikein followed him into the cave with a frown. He refused to be impressed by the Ysali's quick slaying. Ysali were hardly worth the effort of killing them. This Gaili would have a much more challenging time against a real opponent! Like a Diabi! Oblivion sauntered over to collect the orb that dropped for him. "You seem quite pleased with your abilities." Levi told him with a shrug as he inspected his first treasure, won at the hands of another. "But don't get cocky. This cave his for the strong, only." With that, he moved ahead into the next cave.

"Sam speech."
Sam blinked at the other as he collected his own orb. He hated to admit that he was rather pleased with how strong he'd become. He'd come a long way! But he was by no means cocky or satisfied with his abilities so far. If he was, he wouldn't be in this cave. Sam ran to catch up with him, tail swaying. "My name's Sam, by the way." He greeted. If they were going to be together for the length of the cave, he should at least try to get on this guy's good side. It would be unfortunate to have an enemy of this Drakein, when there were already plenty of Dragons to fight. Speaking of Dragons, it was time to take another! This one could feel the force of his magic! Reaching to summon his powers, Sam erupted a boulder from the cave wall to crash into the beast's head before it could so much as roar.
First die: If the number is 1, you encounter a Ysali dragon. If the number is 2-3, you encounter an Ayrala dragon. If the number is 4, you encounter a Kiandri dragon. Second die: If the number is 1, the room is empty. Skip straight to "If you win" options. If the number is 2-3, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 4, spider webs coat the walls of this room and drift about everywhere. Your visibility is lowered, causing your luck chance to be reduced by 10%. [If your normal luck range is 61-100, it is now 71-100. If it is normally 91-100, you must now roll a 100 to succeed.] The rooms slowly grow darker as you continue to progress into the cave system. You are unable to see into the darkest corners, but you can still see well enough to fight.

Ah, this was more like it. Finally the other realized that it would be better to be friendly to him. "And I am Oblivion." He replied, fanning his feathered wings slightly for display. Once Sam dispatched all these easy targets, Levi could take out the stronger ones. He'd allow the other to believe that he was the c**k of the walk and them show him what real power truly was! He waited patiently for the Gaili's magic to take effect and slay the weak Ysali beast in the room so that he could collect his treasure and move along. Levi smirked knowingly to himself. "Well done, Sam." He cooed condescendingly, giving his feathered tail a flick across the other's leg as he headed down the next path.

"Sam speech."
Sam gave a tiny noise of surprise as a soft tail brushed against his leg. He turned widened green orbs to the other, in time to see his rump as he headed off. The Gaili followed, a bit surprised by the seemingly warm gesture, despite the questionable words. The rooms were growing darker. Sam was used to the blazing sun of the desert, so this shady rooms made it difficult for him to make things out. Rather than relying on his eyes, he sniffed the air, catching the spring breeze scent of an Ayrala. His next opponent. Still, though, Ayralas were no match for him, or his magic. This one didn't stand a chance. He heard wings beating and a low growl as the beast took to the air. Sam followed with a warning snarl of his own. The dragon slashed at him with sharp claws, but Samael ducked beneath it and bit into its tail, hard. It shrieked and writhed, trying to fling him off, but he refused to release it. Instead, as it rose higher, a stalactite caught Sam's attention. Focusing on it, he used his magic to break it free of its confines, and sent it slamming downward into the Ayrala's neck.
First die: If the number is 1-2, you encounter an Ayrala dragon. If the number is 3-4, you encounter a Kiandri dragon. Second die: If the number is 1, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 2, you seem to have triggered an old spell and your movement is slowed. Your luck chance is now reduced by 20%. [If your normal luck range is 61-100, it is now 81-100.] If the number is 3, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 4, you have encountered a Bognotti instead of a dragon. See "Creatures" below to see stats. You still fight just like in a dragon hunt, only against the creature instead of a dragon. Continuing into the cave system, the walls now start to glisten with moisture where the light hits them. Shadows are becoming darker and more prevalent, but the overall light level is still that of early evening.

Oblivion smiled slyly as his tail swayed. Ah ha! Sam's surprise was more than worth the tiny gesture. What a cute expression for such a large Drakein. Levi trotted into the room to see an Ayrala. The beasts were getting stronger, if only by a bit... Still nothing worth using his strength on. Sam could tucker himself out with these beasts. Then once he was exhausted, Levi could dive in and save him! For a price, of course... Though the Diabi had to admit he was pleased and enchanted by the ruthlessness of a Drakein that was not of his clan. He'd always assumed all but Diabi's had a soft spot and would be unable to kill with real mercilessness. Sam could prove to be a strong Drakein, yet.

"Sam speech."
The Ayrala burst into orbs, leaving Sam falling through the air to capture his before gliding up to avoid smacking into the ground. The other treasure landed with a soft 'plink' against the rocks. The Gaili flitted toward the earth, landing heavily. "Don't strain yourself too much, now." Samael told the other Drakein, hoping he came off just a condescendingly as Oblivion had before. Fluttering his wings, Sam trotted into the next room to see that the Dragons continued to grow stronger... At this rate, he wouldn't be able to take them on his own much longer. With A sigh, he launched into the air. The Kiandri came after him, dodging by the spears of earth Sam had leap out at it. Growling softly, Sam landed on one of his projections that came from the cave wall. The Kiadri growled in amusement, hardly afraid of him at all, then dove for the Gaili, rearing out with lightning-charged claws. Sam gasped at the swipe across his forearm. he felt the static wash over him. Despite his resistances, it still stung! he summoned a boulder from the ground, crashing it into the beast's underbelly and not stopping until it smacked against the roof of the cave.
First die: If the number is 1, you encounter an Ayrala dragon. If the number is 2-3, you encounter a Kiandri dragon. If the number is 4, you encounter a Firani dragon Second die: If the number is 1-2, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 3, you feel especially brave and daring and your luck chance is increased by 10%. [So if your normal luck range is normally 61-100, it is now 51-100. You cannot go below 6-100, though.] If the number is 4, the dragon roars and any Bonded Drakein quake in fear. (No change to your luck chance, but any Bonded Drakein cannot be RPed as helping during this fight.) The air grows damper as you continue on, a few small puddles appearing on the floor from time to time, especially in lower laying areas and against walls. This room has several large stalagmites jutting from the floor.

Ah, the Gaili sure thought he was vicious! Levi had the distinct notion that he was showing off for him as he tried to win the obviously stronger Diabi over. But the Alikein shished his tail and sauntered into the next room. Sam had no idea who he was in the presence of. It was time he learned! Levi smirked in amusement at the Dragon's roar. Sam wasn't the only one that thought he was intimidating. But a mere Kiandri could never install fear in him! he rustled his feathers and kicked into the air, soaring smoothly and gracefully up to the Dragon's muzzle. It snapped at him with a snarl, but Levi slipped from its reach like water, his soft tail dusting over the beast's nostrils. Unlike Sam, he didn't need something physical to do his attacking! He had the shadows and Blood Moon on his side! And this room was full of darkness! A chilling wind swirled past them, and faint purpleish spires appeared around the beast. Levi ducked back down to spin around the Dragon's legs. As the large beast lunged for him, the spires shot forward.

"Sam speech."
Sam followed at a more sated pace. It sure was easy for Oblivion to run ahead... He hadn't done anything in this cave yet! He seemed the type that wouldn't want to rustle up his feathers too badly, lest they be marred... The Gaili hated to admit that Alikeins did have soft, glorious feathers... Much different than his own shining scales. But oh well. He heard the next dragon roar, and charged ahead should the Diabi need his assistance. But as he entered, he only saw his cave companion toying with the beast, ducking under it and weaving around it as it lunged desperately for him. And then before Sam knew it, blood was gushing from it. Amongst the darkness, he could hardly even see the shadow spires pierce it, but the beast went down soon enough, leaving the Gaili to stare with wide eyes at the feathered Drakein soaring breezily above. "That was... pretty cool." He admitted, watching as Oblivion glided downward to meet him.
First die: If the number is 1-2, you encounter a Kiandri dragon. If the number is 3-4, you encounter a Firani dragon. Second die: If the number is 1, list all participants and generate a number between them. This participant's luck is halved for this battle. Please recalculate luck chances accordingly. (If you are doing this solo, your luck is halved and you must recalculate your luck chance.) If the number is 2-3, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 4, you have found a secret tunnel! Do not fight in this room and proceed directly to "Room 17". (This can only occur the first time you enter this room. If you reenter this room and roll a 4, then nothing happens and you fight as normal.) Glowing fungus grows upon the walls of this room, casting a dim light in those areas. The room is still visible, though it is becoming more like twilight in the level of light. There are still puddles in places, so watch your step!

Oblivion was pleased by the compliment, his tail swaying alluringly behind him. Although, quite frankly, words meant nothing. It was the look of wonder the Gaili was giving him. That look that he deserved. "Hm, yes I'm very talented." The Diabi chuckled, eagerly collecting his portion of the treasure. These opponents certainly weren't as weak as Ysalis, anymore! But with his powers, they still stood no chance! After all, no magic was strong against a Diabi! He smirked at the Gaili before fluffing his feathers and heading into the next room. It was time Sam here learned it was best to follow him, if he wanted to stay safe, and all.

"Sam speech."
Samael tottered after the dark Drakein, surprisingly enthralled by his grace and ability. He'd never considered Diabi's particularly graceful, but Oblivion was certainly out to prove him wrong... That didn't make the Alikein any less arrogant, of course, but if he had that kind of magic at his disposal, why shouldn't he be proud of his abilities? Sam had thought for certain that he'd be the one to take on any Kiandris, since their magic was weak on him, but he found that he didn't really mind watching Levi fight... Sam certainly wasn't graceful. His earthy nature made him more steadfast! Against a lightning quick Kiandri, that seemed like a good thing!
As it was, his next opponent came into view, a sparking Dragon crouched low in a dark corner. Sam could hardly see it, save for the glowing fungus appearing on the walls. The Kiandri let out a roar, and it's shocking magic danced across the ground, skittering from puddle to puddle until it could lash out at the two Drakeins. Sam caught sight of Levi leaping away out of the corner of his eye, but the Gaili stood firm, letting the magic gloss over his scales. Letting out a roar of his own, he dove forward, crashing his charged body into the beast. Of course, the static had no effect on the Kiandri, but it was stunned by Sam's sudden assault. He tore his teeth into it, and the two of them fell backwards under the force. Sam battered it with its claws, doing his best to avoid those lumbering strikes back at him. It wasn't long before the beast was felled, and two treasures lay in its wake.
First die: If the number is 1, you encounter a Kiandri dragon. If the number is 2-3, you encounter a Firani dragon. If the number is 4, you encounter a Peisio dragon. Second die: If the number is 1-2, nothing happens and you fight as normal. If the number is 3, a sudden rock slide closes off the entrance to this room as you enter. You can no longer chose to move closer to the entrance and instead must either move deeper into the cave or leave. [If you have already had this rock slide happen, nothing happens.] If the number is 4, a sudden gush of water fills the room, slowly you down. Your luck chance decreases by 10%. [If your normal luck range is 61-100, it is now 71-100.] More of the glowing fungus grows in this room, aiding what little light has penetrated this far into the cave system. The light reflects off the damp walls and puddles, adding to this effect.

Levi jumped away from the sparks that danced across the floor toward him. Sam may not have to worry about such things, but Oblivion sure did! He escaped just in time, and was able to watch the large Gaili attack the dragon with a full-on assault. Levi never considered himself proficient in physical assault. He was too light and flighty... But an earth drakein like Sam could probably hold his own, and he did, Levi noted, as two shining orbs dropped to the ground. He went to retrieve one, casting his companion a glance. "You haven't yet told me why you are taking this Cave challenge." Levi said disinterestedly. Sam was (as much as he hated to admit it) a pretty powerful Drakein. He was steady, unwavering, and just fierce enough to pose a challenge to these Dragons. And if even Levi was willing to admit it after watching a few fights, then surely anyone else he met would as well... He shouldn't have to put forth much effort to convince anyone...
They walked together into the next room. Levi was pleased to see, not another Kiandri, but a Firani this time! And it was sleeping soundly, curled away from a few of the puddles that dampened its power. "Heehee, watch this, Sam." Levi chuckled. He approached one of the puddles, his magic coiling through it. He dipped his dark magic into it, grinning as a small dark orb, filled with water floated from the puddle. It made it's way over to the sleeping Firani, levitating just over it's head. Levi sent Sam a humored look and then popped the orb over the beast. The Dark orb shattered into what looked like glass as the water spilled down upon it, rousing a now-angered Firani. As it jolted awake, it's eyes snapped open, raking across teh room to land on the two Drakeins. As a snarl formed on its lips, the dark glass shards dove at it, piercing through its eyes and heading straight for its brain. The Dragon howled and flopped in surprise and pain for only a few moments before it was still.
