Verrick is able to dodge behind one of the pillars and escapes any affects of the blast. Philo manages to save 3 kids although he takes much of the frozen blast, his faith and strength save his life! The wizard's snares and flies up out of the hole, just barely visible.Verrick spellcraft 14 +10, the evil mage cast Cone of Cold but in a way that is not a normal casting… it was almost a natural ability of the wizard!The crossbow men aim down at the remaining villages, but one of them thinks twice about it and retreats back out of sight. The other three (including the deafened one) attack down into the crowd…Attack roll total 21, 12, and 11 -4 =7; two crossbow bolts strike into people below …striking an older man and a woman barely a woman and causing them to scream and fall back onto the ground bleeding.Lorien rushes into the room and fires an arrow at the retreating wizard, striking him in the leg. There is a snare and the mages hate filled eyes lock on the ranger's just a second. A shadow seems to pass over the dark mages face for a second and Lorien thinks that just for a second the mage has a two short horns sticking up out of his forehead, that he teeth are huge and almost orc like, and skin turns blue… but then it is back to normal… it must just have been a trick of the lighting. Firing his other two arrows, the first strikes a pillar where one of the crossbow men is seeking cover, while the last arrow strikes the deafened crossbow men in the shoulder causing him to cry out in pain. He does not fall, but the arrow strike looks quit deep.Geenaa screams in rage and rushes into the room. No one is within range of her flail, but she sees a shaky looking staircase in the back of the room, so she runs up that at full speed…Reflex save, as the stairs are not in good shape, 15 +6 (kind of a trap), easily making it over the broken parts…making it up and around the corner (double move). Defrel draws his MW Dagger and throws it at one of the crossbow men…Attack roll 11 +9 +1 +1 =22, a hit; Damage is 3 +2 =5 points…striking him a glancing blow on his left arm. The slaver snares and while re-loading his crossbow looks down at Defrel and says "I'll kill you for that dog!".Refleev follows Geenaa up the stairs (not as far though)…Reflex save 9+6 =15, just making it…and is about half way up the stairs.ConditionsRefleev has 46HP (out of 61)Philo has 14 (out of 56)Lorien has 36 (out of 50)Geenaa has 59 (out of 80)Norbac has 32HP (out of 56)Verrick has 20HP (out of 28)4 crossbow men (one defended)One tall gaunt wizard-looking guy, floating in the airDefrel has 29HP (out of 46)Round 2 Philo 21Verrick 18Norbac and Evil guy talking 17Crossbow men 16Lorien 12Geenaa 9Defrel 7Refleev 5Philo stands again and sees the evil mage out the window and some 60ft away. The crossbow men above are still raining bolts down on the hapless villagers so he tries to strike the bolts away to save those he can. The dark wizards starts flying up and out of sight but not before he says "You have cost me you fool, my master will have revenge… you and your little god will pay!!"Norbac rushes in (the dark mage is already 60ft away from last round) and has to settle for one of the crossbow men instead, his great thrust catches one of them in the chest, lifting him off the ground and throwing him back where he crumbles onto the floor limb and without life…There are only two crossbow men left now, one of them fires a blot at Defrel, while the deafened one turns on Geenaa…Against Defrel attack roll total 13, a miss; Attack roll against Geenaa total 21 -4 =17 a hit as she is in-raged; damage total is 7…the first misses, the second grassing along one of Geenaa's legs Lorien fires up at the crossbow men attacking Defrel…4 +10 +1 =15, miss; 8 +10 +1=19 miss; final arrow 19 +5 +1 =25 hit; Damage 1d8 +3 =2 +3= 5points…and while they have good cover, his last arrow takes the man a slashing cut along his cheek. He cries out in pain and scares…Geenaa smashes into the deafened man who hit her…Attack roll natural 20! follow up 12 +14 +1 =25 crit; Damage is 4 +5 +16 (bull strength) =25 points of damage…hitting him so hard that it almost takes his head off with Smasher and knocking the body off the balcony and down to the floor below where it lands with a wet slap!Defrel throws another dagger at the last crossbow men (who does not seem to be surrendering, he knows that he is facing a hanging offence, not much to surrender for)…Attack roll 13+ 9 +1 =23 hit; damage is 4+3=7 points…taking him in the throat! He falls back dead. Combat is in affect over. One of the crossbow men fled, but Lorien could track him down before he could escape. When he is at the wall, he sees no sigh of the flying wizard but from behind one of the hills he does see a dust cloud…riders maybe two hours away. Some of the villagers shot with bolts can survive if stabilized, in the end about 3 children, 3 women and 2 men are saved out of 16. These people are weak though, and should rest for a while if possible. The frozen ones are dead...very, very dead.      Actions? What next??</blockquote>
