[IC] Chapter 2-4: You Hear Them Whispering in the Crowns of the Trees

[Lugar]

Shanna knows practically all the written lore (OOC - everything written in the MM) about true dragons in general, chromatic dragons as a subgroup, and green dragons in particular. Based on the descriptions the others gave she can also tell that a green dragon of this size is centuries old (OOC - Huge size, meaning at least Adult)

She also knows that dragons like to protect their lairs with deadly wards and while many sorcerers claim to have draconic blood in their veins, some dragons are said to alter their breath weapons mimicking how wizards and sorcerers alter their spells (OOC - metabreath feats), explaining how the burn marks could be mistaken for black dragon breath earlier.

She even recalls a famous quote from some archaic parchment, written by Aloysius Egon Greegier, an armchair dragon scholar,

Dragons are scaly, they lay eggs, and they are utterly lacking in any mammalian  characteristics.  The  notion  that  they  are  warm-blooded is silly.

Rumour has it that his quote was commented by a golden dragon, Kacdaninymila,

Just like a humanoid to quote three facts, get one of them wrong, and then draw an unrelated conclusion from the lot.

Briefly put, "Never say never."

OOC - sorry but the dice said our resident loremaster has surpassed our resident bard in storytelling this time

OoC - Shanna already told us all this information and we are beating a dead horse now. Here is a link to the SRD with the info the DM said we have. True Dragon SRD  I do like the role-playing though.   

"Enough of this, have we found out why the animals are running? Is it the dragon?  If so, lets go tell the old fruit, Cranberry, and see if she will tell us more it."  Lugar doesn't like the idea of wandering around a dragon's hunting area.  His eyes shift around looking for any signs that it may be near and hungry again.  Quietly he wonders how the fey have managed to live so close to such a legendary beast without being killed off.  Maybe they direct hapless adventurers with riches in his direction...  He tucks his mithril axe under his cloak.  ~I wonder if dragon's can smell gold~

OoC - Can I use my knowledge of poisons to identify the acid, and possibly it's strength? I believe the craft Alchemy skill overlaps with poisons, so I figured the opposite is true, that half the skill points would be used in such a check.
