Herron's first and third arrows thud into the dragon's scales, dealing solid blows while Morjan lays on the floor. Tatts' blows land on scales until the fourth strike finds purchase.
The dragon snarls at Tatts before turning to Herron. "Nasty arrows, little elf." he snorts before lifting into the air and coming down on the archer.

Herron moves toward cover. He moves North 4 squares (20’) and Northeast 2 squares (15’)
Herron fires 2 arrows at the Dragon using his SHARPSHOOTER feat
1st Arrow: I rolled a 16 +10 (-5) = 21 for 10 (+10) =20 points of damage
2nd Arrow: I rolled a 10 +10 (-5) = 15 for 6 (+10) =16 points of damage
I use my ACTION SURGE for 2 more attacks
3rd Arrow: I rolled a 16 +10 (-5) = 21 for 7 (+10) =17 points of damage
4th Arrow: I rolled a 4 +10 (-5) = 9 for 11 (+10) =21 points of damage
END TURN
Death save: 5, 1 fail
Tatts will move N, N, W, W, W, S, so he is basically behind the dragon and let loose!
bonus: Second Wind: 9
16 dmg 10
11 dmg 9
Action Surge
12 dmg 6
20 dmg 9
[horrible rolls]
If any of those hit, I will use my Menacing attack maneuver on it: DC 16 WIS save or he is frightened of me until the end of my next turn.

Tatts pulls out his scroll of teleportation, but remembers he left it at home, so he is most likely going down with the ship.
He moves up to one block east of where he's marked here:

then moves and ends where he is marked above, behind the tree, shivering in fear.
Does he see anything of the dragon's hoard, like some potions perhaps?
