With a tremendous throw, the spear sliced into Sigurd’s leg and carried her backwards, sending her spinning into the alchemical materials. As she lay, several spilled alchemical reagants began to merge together, hissing and spluttering as they did so.Yelling in anger, Karl leapt forwards off the dais and attacked. His first strike clanged off his opponents armour, but, nimble and swift he twister and struck again, penetrating it’s skin and damaging it. Thunder also ran forwards to engage it with the Legionspear, but as he closed the monster drew two bastard swords and parried his attack, striking in return. Thunder managed to get his own shield in the way, but felt the force of the blow ring through his arm.Iben then joined the fray, howling in battle-fury. His enchanted axe sheared through the armour of the Warforged, dislodging a chunk of it.Sigurd, regaining her feet amidst the wreckage, created a zone of Icy Terrain, freezing the metal around the party’s opponent. Unable to keep it’s footing, it fell prone. In a moment, the area was blanketed in darkness as the fey spirits allied to Aengus did their own work. With the creature down, Karl moved in again, stabbing ferociously.Thunder paused for a second. Before it had vanished into the darkness, he realised that he had recognised the face of this creature. But there was something odd, something wrong about it.“In the name of Kord, may his holy fire burn my enemies!” he cried, stabbing down with the Legionspear. The speartip ignited as he struck, and the divine fire spread quickly across the enemy, burning it. The creature writhed in the blackness, visible to all. However, the fire also weakened the ice encasing it somewhat, and it stood and struck back at Karl, driving him back a step and trying to make some space in the cramped room. Turning to Thunder, it met his gaze and said “I hoped you would come!”Thunder stopped for a second, before parrying another sword strike. That voice, he thought to himself. It can only be him. General Requiem of the Legion! As he struggled with the knowledge that his foe was a former commanding officer, Iben roared again.Drawing the primal spirits to him, Iben’s face took on, for a second, the aspect of a Frostwolf, one of the most feared predators of the Swordlands. In a savage fury, he chopped and hacked at his enemy in front of him[1]. Bolts of radiant power arched out from Aldis, exploding against the wall as another Ray of Frost shot forth from Sigurd.Behind Sigurd and Aldis, and as yet unseen, rat forms the size of small dogs began to emerge from the alchemical spillage. In scant seconds, the two adventurers found themselves beset from behind![1] This is, of course, the Frostwolf Rage daily power from the Barbarian playtest. Iben can certainly dish out plenty of damage, and with him hitting 5th level and gaining a second Rage power, we noticed a jump in power in this session.Next time: The Battle Continues! The secret of this Warforged is revealed!</blockquote>
