Demon God Game Carnival

[First Round of the Gift Game: Dragon versus Hero]
Situation: For the sake of world peace, and to prevent the Little Garden's Demon Lords or gods from invading and destroying the primary material world, the Little Garden's central hub and a certain mysterious, indescribable, and powerful being from across the myriad heavens and worlds had invited five heroes from beyond the Little Garden to guard the stages and subdue the participating Little Garden community members who played the "evil dragons."
Note: Though the "heroes" faced by each community differed, their strength was roughly equal.
Victory condition: Defeat the five heroes blocking the way and obtain the key to advance.
Failure condition: Fail to meet the above conditions.
Victory reward: Successfully advance to the next round of the Demon God Gift Game.
Failure penalty: None.
