So my second encounter with a dragon, ever, in adventure mode, went much better than my first.  First time around, the dragon lit me on fire and I died without even having a chance to do anything.

This time around, I had powered up my character for a while, acquired some buddies, and snuck in as my stupid companions just charged in.  They were all dead in short order, but they had managed to injure all three of the resident dragons.  I slowly enticed them to come near the lair's entrance and brained them when they peeped their head up.  I'm guessing dragonfire only works on one Z level because they never even got a chance to breathe on me.

Anyway, among the loot was a a worn crown and an earring, and a bunch of coins from around the world.  Those dragons get around!  Also, I found four dragon eggs.  Can I keep them in my pack and expect them to hatch eventually?  Or are they just food items / missile weapons?  It'd be neat to have a pet dragon in adventure mode.

I took a quest right off the bat to kill a creature of the night.  I made my way to the capitol where this evil she-creature has killed one thousand forty (!) victims in her career as the spawn of the night.  My faithful followers are eager to accompany me, as long as I lead them to a glorious death.

All seems well, except that once I got to the area where she is supposed to be (indicated by *** on my little quest tracker compass) I can not find her for the life of me!  I have accused everybody in the area of being a vampire, undoubtedly making a fool of my poor adventurer and his companions, but nobody confessed to it.

Is there some way to tell for certain?  Will a vampire always admit to being a vampire, and perhaps I have just missed her?  I know this will cost my poor adventurer his life, as he has only killed one thing - a crab - but I am desperate to find this fiend!

Thanks.
