If this finishes off the Dragon, Z will do make sure to move out of the way if the dragon looks to crash down on top of him. I'm not hell use his 30ft speed for a little victory dance instead.
(sorry for the extra delay over the holidays, I'm slow to get to back to things, lol)
The Black Dragon swings his sinuous head around like a giant serpent and fixes his gaze upon the party and screams, "I, Neforakx, curse you with the black breath." Then he slumps to the ground with a loud thump.
The fight is over and that was an Adult Black Dragon. WOW! Anyway happy new year and everyone can level up to Level 11.

Zenodor is extremely relieved at having defeated such a fearsome foe ... but is worried by this ominous sounding curse. (Should we roll Arcana/History/Nature or something to see if we recognise the curse?)
He approaches the dead body of the Dragon to take a closer look at it. (Does it have anything on it? Items, documents, clues, etc? If not, perhaps we check the tent)
While approaching the Dragon, he gets his heartrate and mind back under control from the rush of adrenaline, and it slowly dawn on him that he has no idea what the Goblin army is up to! He looks around him to see what the Goblins are up to, hoping that they will be sufficiently scared of the Dragon and us Dragonslayers not to do anything foolish.
Tempe looks upon the defeated creature with bittersweet emotions. He floats down to Neforakx and says a prayer to Bahamut and momentarily reflects. Floating with flaming sword in hand he rises above the goblins out of bow shot, and roars
"Run!"
His ancestors genetics kick in and a cone of flame from his mouth, punctuates his roar of triumph.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Randall:
"That was quite valiant of you, Petcan," says Randall, "May the Morninglord heal your injuries."

Turning to the summoned celestial, Randall bows and says, "May I heal you as well? You acquitted yourself well in battle, what service would you have of me?"

The curse was just an empty gesture as Reforakx was in the throes of death.
The black tents that were burned revealed some of the remains of goblins but nothing else. Reforakx has nothing on him.
Goblins in the camps with burning black tents are running to and fro, screaming and yelling, trying to 'stop the sky from falling' so to speak. The other camps are slow to figure out what is exactly is going on.
Tempe startles any nearby goblins with his roar and display so that you don't have to worry about them bothering you while you recover in the aftermath of the fight.
The Battleforce Angel advises you to save your efforts as it will soon depart and have plenty of rest. Before it leaves it retrieves a scroll and places it in Randall's hands.

Zenodor, who has had his share of dabbling in strange magic, still believes that there may be something to this. He keeps checking himself in his paranoia (e.g. checking his breath, like you would to check if you need to brush). When they eventually return to the city he will probably try to find a temple with some priests to talk to, or perhaps some Mages.
Currently there is panic and disorder among the camps with burning black tents. Most of the goblins in this camp have run away from the dragon fight so there is little danger right now.
You could take a short rest (5 min) here or a long rest (1 hour) somewhere away from the goblin camps, just to be safe.

"Let's get out of this camp. I feel there is little point in killing more Goblins at this time. I think we should return to the city. Let us pick up Skrud on the way, if he is still where we left him, and meet up with Mignon who should be waiting for us. Once back in the city, we can discuss our findings with the General and his advisors."
(so, out of the camp first, maybe a 5 mins short rest in the dry riverbed if it still looks safe, then back to Mignon and long rest there or back in the city. How does that sound to everyone?)
Does Randall have any thoughts of where the dragon’s treasure hoard might be? Or if the scales or other remains from the dragon might be useful/valuable? Maybe he can get a dragonscale shield to match his bulette armor…
Survival: 12
(Once we are done with that, Randall is ready to return)

(Didn't someone get weapons made from the claws of some monster, a long time ago near the beginning of the campaign? Is something similar possible with Dragon teeth/horns/scales/bones?)
You know that black dragons prefer swamps over tents. This raises many questions. Where is the dragon's hoard? Why was the black dragon traveling in a tent? And probably a few more but those loom large in your mind.
@All
It is a black dragon so much of it is probably valuable to someone. If anyone wants to take anything, whether for themselves or to sell later just record it in a post.

Pepin is definitely interested in getting a armor similar to Randall's but made from Black dragon scales. He will ask Randall how much he would probably need and takes that with him. Other than that Pepin is mostly watching there surroundings and wondering what the hell was going on here. He agrees with a rest and to get to the city afterwards.

"What next? I doubt the Dragon took its hoard with him. Though we have the initiative. I think we need an hours rest."
