Eitleog will mystically enhance his athletic skill and draw his swords as he moves to the right of the party’s current location. He will wait to see if the creature will, in fact, be aggressive before attempting to intervene.
Metal cannot hold magic, so Astarte will need to use a stone tipped arrow. This is known by the character, though players sometimes forget. All actions are calculated to the advantage of true intentions of the character
Coldtree tends to place himself in the forefront of any potential danger. This encounter is no exception. The yeti drops back to all fours after its initial roar and charges toward him with longs hops of its unusual sideways canter, pushing with its powerful but shorter legs and balancing with its longer arms. It is quite a formidable sight, but Coldtree is ready.
However, coming out of the fog and back into view at a speed that almost defies comprehension, Kite launches himself through the air and slices at the beast as Coldtree is moves to defend himself from its rush. Kite slashes the beast across the back of its right shoulder, but the thickness of the hide reduces the effectiveness of the cut. Coldtree steps to his right and clubs the yeti hard in the ribs with his right bludgeon. The blow makes a resounding thud, indicating some damage, possibly a cracked rib. The beast spins with Coldtree, hitting him across the torso with a backswing of his long arm. The blow lifts the man and sends him backward several strides. He is hurt but undeterred in wanting to regain his feet.
Unnoticed by the two in melee, Astarte has already fired one of her stone tipped arrows. The tendrils of mist visibly darken in color as they curl away from its path. The arrow strikes true, but does not penetrate the hide enough to do any real harm of its own; however the eerie blackness of the mist surrounding the spot as the arrow falls away, indicates that something more has accompanied the arrow.
Sticking to his primary field of manipulation, Terrendale generates a visible bolt of lightning that strikes the beast in the side of the head, singeing some of the hair and causing it to vigorously shake its head. It is obvious that the beast is hurt and possibly weakened from the cumulative assaults, but it roars again in anger and frustration, still intent on driving the party away or killing everyone.

Enhanced as much as he can be, Eitleog can only continue to fight. As the beast is so large, he hopes to injure one of its arms to reduce its ability to fight.
Momentarily delayed as he regains his feet and charges back at the Yeti, Coldtree is still shows determination to take down this monster. Kite shifts his weight from foot to foot in slight hops, creating a strange image of himself as he closes with the beast. He leaps through the air, slashing at the creature’s right arm. The assault is effective and the arm drops down in a useless manner. Spinning in the direction of the quickly moving man, the Yeti tries to slam Kite in the back with his left arm. Kite twists his body in the air, possibly feeling the change in the air from the moving fist, and manages to strike the monster’s fist with his other sword. The creature’s touch skin protects him from taking damage from the counter.
Astarte fires her second arrow, but the flying shaft results in no more penetration than the first one. The hide on this beast must be very tough. Once again black tendrils of smoke appear to follow in the arrow’s wake, and the Yeti quivers from whatever magic was done to it. The tension in its body seems to dissipate slightly. Terrendale generates another bolt of lightning, but the damage is too little. The beast growl and drops to all fours preparing to charge and the Psionicist when Coldtree slams his bludgeon into his right side. The resounding thud is solid, but the formidable opponent is not yet down.

Astarte will again shoot into yeti's eye using magic to paralyze the beast and hopefully at least decreasing it's range of vision.
