The team carefully makes their way down the last unexplored passage. The tunnel winds its way on down into the rock. Soon enough, it opens up on your right.
The first thing you see is a man, frozen solid in a position of shock and horror. He wears the garb of one of the cultists' guards.
Inching a little further, the scouts are looking into an open cavern, a very thick layer of clear ice covers a massive pile of shipping crates.
Across the cavern, you can see daylight shining into a tunnel. Above the tunnel is a big ledge. At the rear of the ledge is a faint glint of gold and silver. Perched near the edge of the ledge, for all appearances half asleep as it looks over the cavern, is a large white scaled dragon.
After, putting on the plate armor Tazskan, enters barracks. He sees that it is devoid of life. Tells his psuedodragon to lead him to the main group quickly.
He follows close behind, the pseudodragon moving quickly.
Heading down the last unexplored passage. He sees a man frozen in horror. Once caught ip with Velon, and the others he quietly indicates what assistance he can do.
Out of Character: Tazskan has a couple of ranged spells, that havn't been used yet.
Shatter, and Hellish rebuke, but he must be within 60 feet from dragon. He has Eldritch blast, and poison spray as a cantrip. In melee, he can use divine smite with his sword, but damage is limited. He could really benefit, with being invisible, or resistance to cold from someone?

Ignazio slowly and cautiously points at his eyes and then to the dragon. He then makes a stage with his hand and walks his fingers across his palm, points to the dragon, and then shrugs his shoulders, suggesting a question.
Out of Character: :
If they agree, Ignazio will advance to the right side of the cavern and then towards the dragon.
A few questions:
1. Are we being treated as invisible? I didn't see our final decision.
2. Which part of the cavern is covered in ice?
3. I put on the magic cloak. Did I notice any effects?
Lora studies the dragon with fascination. Her eyes light up at the glitter of gold. She hopes they won't meet the same fate as the frozen man but is more than willing to take that risk. Whispering to Ignazio and Zarra,"
Let's get closer to the dragon." The whisper doesn't travel beyond their immediate area deadened as it is by pass without a trace.
Out of Character: : Zarra has invisibility and could cast it on herself.
Anron, the invisibility is for scouting purposes. He isn't stealthy enough In plate armor to make use of it. In combat the moment he attacked the dragon it would cause the spell to drop.

Tazskan, standing quietly not moving a muscle, in defensive stance. Left hand lightly grasping arcane focus pendant. "Why are you here,"? He thinks.
Telepathically commands, Amabalis to find a quiet, yet secluded place to perch on the ceiling of the cavern. No closer than 60 feet from the resting white dragon,(Dark vision limit). He is only to observe, if seen will fly, at speed back down narrow corridor. Not out of the cavern, outside.
Out of Character: From the discovery of the frozen humanoid, it isn't difficult for Tazskan to deduce that the dragons breath weapon is cold. Most likely, with a range of at least double that of a dragonborns 15 feet.
Velon uses his ring to descend the passage, taking up the rear. After waiting a minute to see if any sudden alarm is raised, he will slowly make his way up to where Poljen stands and remove his stone.
He whispers "They seem very concerned with tricking this mighty foe of ours, but there will be no throat cutting here." "I only see this going one way. Care to challenge it for the honor of the Snow Leopards?"
Nikolaos adds to Velons advise by saying "He has to be drawn down where we can surround him on the ground. That's how I think we can beat him. "
Out of Character: I was afraid that we wouldn't know what type of dragon we are facing, but thanks to the cultist keeping a cool head I know it will be all white.
Backing up a bit but still within sight of Poljen, Lawrance quietly casts his spell, enveloping the mighty warrior in a momentary sheet of glistening silver. The glow vanishes, sinking into his Armor and flesh, protecting him from the soon to come cold. “That’s it, Pol. The cold should fall away easily. I’m going to stay out of sight around the corner until you engage the beast and then add what magics I can. “ Lawrance says quietly.
SA : cast protection from energy - cold
Out of Character: : it lasts for an hour as long as I concentrate on it.
