Needs tuning, but the general idea is to reduce the ambush cost of Dragons in several ways, so that the Long Lances can repeatedly stand them. Jumping Pentoshi Deckhand can enter opponents' challenges just for the reduction and as a bargaining chip.

Small sub-theme of Trait manipulation from Hall of Dragons and Copper Link to dole out additional Dragon traits for all those various effects.

What about At the Gates as a plot?
With only one Link and two Dragon Lore, I'm not leaning heavily on the Maester tech early on. Dragon Lore tends to pull aggro since everyone expects Balerion to come out.
