After the third bolt the Dragon figured out you are trying to injure him. He flies over and lands heavily onto the battlement destroying part of the battlement with his massive claws and weight. He opens his jaw filled with crackling lightning but stops.
In Draconic the dragon says "Foolish little ones. Do you think you can harm me. Nothing here has been a challenge. What a boring affair this whole night has been. Why do you struggle when you know how this will end?"
Krackle would struggle to stand as his entire body began to tremble with fear. clutching his orb with both hands, he would hold it out in front of him in a futile attempt to protect himself. "Hello... Powerful dragon.." The small kobold would manage to whisper through quivering lips. "We... we...." he could barley speak as his body felt as though it was about to collapse under the pressure of this creatures gaze.. a few long seconds passed when suddenly, from deep inside he felt a burning sensation. A feeling as though a powerful furnace was just ignited. Suddenly he felt the words come through him as though a dragon inside of him has just awakened. "We struggle to defend the weak... because it is the right thing to do!" The small kobold would shout as his red scales shown a little more golden in the firelight.
Now in common language. "Hmm...little ones defending rabbits" the blue dragon looks around Greenest. "Even without my aid this town will soon be wiped out. Now I will give you one chance to convince me to leave. If your reasoning is compelling, I may consider it." There is a smug look on the dragon as if this night was just a bit of diversion for a bored dragon.
The ballista bolt finds it mark burrowing past the dragon scales into the dragon's flesh. There is a roar of anger. "You have you squandered your chance to live'"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Krackle would dive out of the way as the ballista bolt slams into the dragon. After quickly scrambling to his feet he would back away from the dragon and his companions, separating himself from both before throwing a firebolt at the dragon...
Zeds draws his rapier and attacks, feeling like it is pointless but if one is going to die it may as well be with blade drawn…
Rapier Attack: 19 to his for 10 piercing plus 6 sneak attack damage…
“You were right, this is beneath you and you should depart!” Zeds calls out as he tries to move to one side of the dragon so it cannot catch them all in one blow. “You win here you gain no reputation for it, this place is beneath you. You lose… or are even wounded… it does nothing but lessen you. Weaken you in the eyes of others.”
(I cannot see Krackle's attack numbers. Zeds attack hits wounding the dragon further)
Round 2
The dragon hears your words and leaps into the air "You will rue this day" He flies low and slams his mighty tail backed up by with his massive weight into the keeps large doors splintering and breaking the doors into kindling. "Let's see how long you can survive now"
He flies 80 ft away watching as the enemy forces begin to charge the keep.
“We best get down there!” Zeds calls to the others, he’ll stop and give Ironthar the potion of healing he got earlier… to use now or later, as he sees fit.
“Even if we must flee it’ll be easier from the ground floor,” he adds.

Working together with your companions you load another bolt and you have advantage since you are helping each other.
Krackle would launch the bolt as soon as it is ready

Ironthar aims the ballista as the dragon is talking and takes a shot hoping it is distracted enough to not dodge the arrow.

Round 1 the dragon goes first.
It surges forward swipes at Ironthar with a deadly claw.
Attack: 20 Damage: 19
Now it's the party's turn.
Ironthar is downed by the claw attack, he smiled as he fall, knowing he already hurt the dragon.
Death save

(Ooc: I'm not sure on the size of this tower so let me know if I can't do this)
Stirling runs up to Ironthar and drags him back into the keep. Once inside he will cast Cure Wounds.
CW 7
(Yes, you can drag Ironthar back)

(You can continue to combat the dragon or head down and try to save the townsfolk.)
I refreshed the page so you can see the rolls.
"Do.. do we keep shooting at it with the ballista? Should some of us head down to help the guards?" Krackle would ask, not sure of what to do....
Attack of opportunity for dragon leaving melee?
OppAttack: Rapier: 8 to hit, 4 dam
