Scott, Auric and Mr. Dark all release various attacks towards the large beast. Ting. Mr. Dark’s second arrow wedges itself between scales, successfully plucking one free.
Piercing eyes watch them scatter into cover. The dragon may have lost sight of two, but the rest couldn’t break away from their senses.

Everyone was mindful of each others positions, providing space and staggering. Xeno settles himself in view. The dragons head lifts slightly, almost an ode of respect to the Dragonborn.

Piercing blue eyes stare directly at Kaemgen. Mouth curling into a grin, the white beast licks their teeth. “Tastes like chicken…” Rearing their head back take in a large breath. Like a déjà vu, this was all too familiar to Dark. With a sudden dip the dragon lowers themselves about 10 feet, and in the last moment they shift their attention from Kaemgen to their chosen target. They unleash an icy breath centred on Pollux. White and blues swirl in a frosty 30 foot cone blast, bursting from the centre of impact. At the edges of the reach, icy flames lick up Xeno at one end, and Kaemgen at the other. Until the breath storm settled, it was like a brief wall obscuring some view.
On Pollux, Kaemgen and Xeno Attack: Cold Breath - The dragon exhales an icy blast in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 42 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Kaemgen sees the wolf fall even as he almost succumbs to the frigid halitosis of the white beast himself. He wanted to run to his friend, protect them... Help them. But he had no way to heal another. The best he hope for is to distract the beast so perhaps another could raise the wolf...
There is a brief pause as Kaemgen takes a moment to gather himself (bonus action Second Wind for 8 HP healing) before he... Tried something incredibly stupid. Having no ranged attacks and the dragon being too high up to reach with his weapons, Kaemgen puts them away and runs for the likeliest looking tree, jumps into it and starts climbing. ((Will use Dash action to get more movement in order to get to tree and climb it to a bit above dragon level?)). Kaemgen then uses his despair over the fallen Pollux to surge himself to even greater deeds than he'd normally be capable of ((Action Surge for another action)) and launches himself out of the tree and hopefully landing atop the dragon, trying to hold on for dear life...
((So pulling out all the stops to try to climb tree, jump out of tree, land atop dragon, and hopefully not just fall right off? What kind of rolls you want and how many? LOL))
(((And shush! You are doing excellent! More than enough details, that's what imaginations are for! Maps are nice but unnecessary....)))
And this… this is why Scott didn’t like dragons. Seeing Pollux drop sends Scott into an uncontrolled rage. Rushing towards the wolves body and standing over it protectively (assuming I have enough movement) Scott fires another arrow towards the Dragon glaring at it defiantly. “Go away you over grown lizard with wings. Back to whatever abysmal place you call home.”
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing the cold fire wash across the wolf, and then seeing the animal drop is the bony finger of death jabbing him right in his heart. Desperate that the wolf may still be alive, Mr.Dark clutches his coin through his shirt pocket and says, "Lady luck....may he still live...". Healing energy washes out towards the wolf. Healing Word : 5 hps.
Then a deep furrow ripples on his forehead and he growls. He steps out from behind the tree and fires his crossbow at the dragon. Attack: 9 Damage: 8 + 1 sneak damage.
He slips back behind the tree, as he reloads, determination settling into his gut.

Silence.
A brief calm before the group roars in retaliation.
Having positioned himself in front of the wolf's fallen body, Scott fires his shot. The arrow reaches it's target, but merely leaves a scratch. The white dragon turns to scoff at Scott, providing Kaemgen with the opportunity he was looking for.
Kaemgen scales the tallest tree, pushing through the ice numbing pain to the highest branch that could support him. With adrenaline surging him forward, and a bit of help from some spring in the branch, he launches himself into the air towards the coldblooded beast.
Kaemgen: Strength (Athletics) Check DC10 to clear the jump. Otherwise, you smack into the dragon and fall 30ft.
On Success
Kaemgen: Dexterity (Acrobatics) Check DC10 to land on your feet, or you land prone on the dragon's back.
Castor kicks off, abandoning his perfect camouflage to race forward towards his brother's frigid body. Blue lips. Purple toes. Black ear tips. Castor latches onto Pollux's frosty scruff with his powerful jaws and heaves. Using every ounce of his strength, Castor drags his kin to cover.
Kisses of sunlight break through the canopy, casting warmth down below to melt the frost.
Toes twitch. Ears now missing their tips, flick. Cold snoot sniff and tail no longer stiff. Pollux peeps.
Xenophone inhales a freshened breath, holding himself ready to press an attack while a bolt randomly whizzes by.
Suddenly, an energy blast whips through the air, clipping Cryovain in the shoulder with enough force it sends him careening backwards. It's source, Auric.

Eyes darting, the dragon huffs out of their nose. "You pests." They snarl. "Is this where you wish to die?" With a wide bat of their powerful wings, the beast lurches forward, swooping by Xeno as it dips into a spin prior to pulling back up into the air.
Looking on in awe as Kaemgen, heavily-injured, rides the dragon, Auric sends healing the way of his heroic friend, then shoots another blast at the dragon's belly before moving off behind another tree.
