Lessons From Your Forefathers was a pamphlet of Dragon fighting tips disseminated from the great Silver Dragon Sro and sent out across Isonhound in 825 PR.
Lessons from your Forefathers
Rule 1: Don't Fight a Dragon in its own Lair
- The The Green Stag, for example, was driven out of its lair before being conquered.
- The fight against the Black Dragon Thymor'ala was a blatant disregard of this rule, but in return for the extra deadly fight, the heroes were able to recover 3 black dragon eggs.
Rule 2: Work together with your allies.
Rule 3: Elemental Arrows of Dragon Slaying are more useful than Guns and Explosions
Rule 4: Try to fight a dragon from underneath, their bellies are softer.
- Ulka unfortunately learned this lesson the hard way when a dragon fell onto her, though it let her climb on top from underneath to follow up with the next rule.
Rule 5: Pin them down if you need to bring in a bruiser.
Rule 6: Spiked Armor can prevent being eaten or squeezed to death.
- Stan was protected in a fight with the Green Stag by using powerful spiked armor borrowed from Spinel & Dancer of the Boreal Valley.
