E3: 1st Day, The First Assignment

by Flux

The next morning we were sent on our first assignment or test... If we want to stay and learn we need to capture a miniature dragon.
 
Somehow I've ended up in a group with some of the other students, none of which is the one I'm supposed to be doing this with.... The teachers said to work with your roommate, but I'm not even sure when he left!
 
Oh, well. How bad could that be?
 
My traveling companions are an interesting group.
 
We have two genasi in the group, Iuleck and Gossamer. Iulek is a half elf fire genasi, and she seems to have come from a wealthy family. I'm not sure about Gossamer, but she is a steam genasi.
Next we have our three wood elves: Ara, Roedyn and Vesryn. Of the three only Ara is a girl, but they all seem nice enough. Of all of them Vesryn looks to be the most competent out here in the wilds. He knows a lot about nature and the plants out here.
The last elf in the group is Teagen. He's rather small and clutzy for a high elf, but I think it just might be because he's younger than the rest of us and that's saying something. Were all quite young.
The last two in the group are kenku. I think they're siblings and they are always fighting over that large witch's hat of theirs. They look ni identical, and I don't know very much about kenku so I don't even know if their boys or girls and it seems rude to ask. Anyway, the one carrying a lute introduced themselves by inmitating the sound of their lute, so we've been calling them Lute Pluck. The other did so with the sharp sound of a bird call, so Chirp.
 
We set out, and by the time we made camp later that night we'd encountered a nest of snakes, a jaguar, and a mini black dragon. The kenku, Chirp, managed to capture the dragon and he headed back to the castle before we even made camp.
 
We got our second encounter with the dragons while I was out setting traps. Someone in our group had lured a little gold dragon out of hiding with some food. By what I heard, it was either Gossomer or Iuleck that lured it out but Lute Pluck managed to capture it.
