We do not know their motives.  They must die."  It twists the sword and shards of ice crystallize out of the air around Janus and Balth.  Balth throws an arm in front of his face and the shards deflect off his heavy cloak, but they pierce Janus's body.  He feels an incredible lash of pain and then his limbs begin to stiffen even further.A third figure appears at the head of the stairs.  This one is thinner and holds a long shard of ice balanced in one hand like a javelin.  It sights down the length of the steps and hurls its missile towards Balth.  It only grazes his leg, but the freezing cold causing him more pain than the physical damage.  Another icicle immediately appears in the warriors hand and it poises to throw again.Ice Warrior Icicle Hurler:<img src="http://i28.tinypic.com/24xl7b6.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[sblock=Status]Now that Janus and Balth's attention is focused up the stairs, I'm revealing a bit more of the area...Janus: you forgot to roll save vs slow (but it doesn't matter because you're hit with another slowing attack now).The Ice Warrior Frostling, starting somewhere to the north of the stairs, moves to C3 and attacks with Icy Burst, an Area Burst 1 centered at F6.  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2223502/" target="_blank">Icy Burst at Janus, then Balth (targets Fort) (1d20+7=17, 1d20+7=9, 1d10+4=14)</a>. It hits Janus for 14 cold damage, bloodying him, and he's slowed (save ends).The Ice Warrior Icicle Hurler, starting at B2 (just outside the area Janus could see), moves to F3 and throws a Flying Icicle at Balth: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2223503/" target="_blank">Flying Icicle at Balth (damage is 1d6+2 normal, 1d6 cold) (1d20+9=22, 1d6+2+1d6=9)</a>.  It hits for 9 damage total (3 normal and 6 cold).Balth's turn!23 - Ice Warrior Raider at D5 (0 damage)20 - Janus (3/22 hp, slowed (save ends))19 - Ice Warrior Frostling at C3 (0 damage, used Icy Burst)19 - Ice Warrior Icicle Hurler at F3 (0 damage)17 - Balth (18/27 hp)12 - Shorrin (33/33 hp) 8 - Larinza (29/29 hp, allies in LOS who spend an action point regain 4 hp) 5 - Murphy (26/26 hp)[/sblock]<img src="http://i26.tinypic.com/mrzmsl.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></blockquote>
