Fake Injury

Overview

An red dragon is polymorphed as a gold dragon that is hurt. It is trying to lure the party close so it can attack by suprise!

Trigger

While travelling in the mountains(preferably not on a popular road or path)

Description

While travelling in the mountains you hear some noises off to your side. [A few seconds later] You hear the noises again. It seems to be coming from over behind some rocks. [If they investigate] You climb over a few large boulders and before you, you see in somewhat of a crumpled mess a small dragon. And its staring right at you! It apparently is a bit injured, because there is blood scattered about the rocks around it, and its far wing is bent over in a way that it should not be! Also several bolts and arrows are pertruding from its scales!

Dm notes

The dragon is actually polymorphed into a gold dragon that looks hurt, but is not. It wants to lure the party in to try to get a suprise attack on it.

Key

There is no treasure local, but its lair is on the other side of the mountain (10% chance of finding if not a ranger). Its mate is very, very pissed off!
