The Northlands Saga - Spears in the Ice IC

[DrK]

Freyja

Freyja winces as the sprite claws at her and the freezing ice begins to form around her armour. She thrusts out brutally at the sprite before stepping to beside the roaring fire hoping to let the flames thaw out the freezing armour.

Bjorn took a swing, but he could see that his axe didn't do as much damage as he had hoped it would. He had one option he might use. Dropping his axe, he drew his silver dagger, gritting his teeth against the cold of it, took a step to the side and tried to hit the little imp there.

Heltinne draws on her powers to heal some of the wounds that the creatures have been inflicting on Freyja. As they steel themselves a couple of the maddened mites streak towards the two women, shrieking insanely as they do. Both of you try to fend the creatures off with your spears, hitting for 1 & 2 damage, then the things are upon you, clawing at Heltinne for 4 damage and Freyja for 5 damage.

Just behind you, Signy leans against a log as she struggles to stay standing. Summoning the inner energy of the cunning women, she again blasts at an imp with sheer force of will for 3 damage and one of the two recent assailants blasts apart in a shower of ice.

Fighting Bjorn and the Nuk, one of the recently injured sprites takes flight, flapping off into the darkness of the night shrieking "Althunak! Althunak?!....Althunak?" as it whimpers. Bjorn is clawed for 2 damage meanwhile Dark Dreams Wanderer is blasted for 5 damage by another sprite even as he strikes out hitting for 13 damage.

You armour continues to radiate dangerously uncomfortable cold, Bjorn taking 1 damage from the unnatural chill.

Heltinne Thrainsdottir, Speaker of Spirits

Heltinne grunted at the claw strike that pierced her icy armor. But even for the few sprits actually attacking the group, the beasts were in danger. Perhaps the fear of fire would help. Pulling free a small flask as she moved closer, Heltinne launched the flask at the clump of icy demons.

Bjorn swings, his axe hitting the thing but hardly scratching it. Freyja stabs out, massive spear skewering the mephit bearing down on her and Heltinne for 26 damage as it can't stop it's hurtling flight. Even as it slides along the spear to a halt it cracks and shatters apart into so many shards of ice.

Heltinne hurls a flask with a strange liquid towards the nearest group of sprites. The arcing vial misses but shatters nearby bursting into flames and searing two of the creatures for 1 damage each. They screech and flap their wings uttering curses. One gestures at Heltinne and a spark of magical energy zaps out at her striking for 4 damage.

Another of the creatures fighting Dark Dreams Wanderer and Bjorn flaps off into the night, badly injured and shrieking. The one next to it scratches and hisses trying to get at Bjorn but fended off by his shield.

Your armour, still painfully cold, continues to burn at your skin inflicting 2 damage to Dark Dreams Wanderer and 1 to Freyja.

Dark Dreams Wanderer steps past Bjorn, a Nuk battle-cry on his lips. Even as the sprite scratches and claws at him for 3 damage he brings the ancient bronze weapon down in a vicious slash striking for 13 damage. The sprite shatters, falling apart in icy shards.

Nearby Freyja stabs out covering the injured Heltinne as she pulls back. Freyja's spear strikes true for 9 damage even as an arrow comes flying out of the darkness ricocheting off the creatures icy flank. It screeches and hisses in anger at the surprise attack, and as it does Freyja sees an opportunity and stabs again for 7 damage killing it.

Three of the sprites take wing screeching and cursing as they divert their attention away from the cattle towards your group. As they flap towards you missiles of foul magic zap from two of them, hitting Freyja for 3 damage and Bjorn for 5 damage.

Heltinne’s breath came in pained gasps as she fell back. She chided herself for her lack of skill and endurance. Her spells were gone, her resources low, and her weapons seemed ineffective. She knew her time on the mortal coil could be ending, a fate worse than the fires of Hel ...

Heltinne stopped her train of thought, thinking again on the fires of hell. Glancing down at the campfire, something occurred to her. Holding the tip of her spear in the flames, Heltinne grinned. What better way to stop ice fry than with hot steel!

Mørkedrømevandrer darts forward, ancient sword arcing down he swings at an ice sprite as it tries to breathe frigid air upon the helpless cattle. Blade arcing he strikes it for 12 damage and it squawks and hisses vile curses sputtering from its fangs barely discernible as language. Bjorn also advances forward to clear the vermin from the herd, his blow unfortunately turned.

An arrow flies out from the shadows, an unknown saviour partially discernible as a female half-Nuk bow in hand and arrows peppering the flying foes. One of the imps is struck a glancing blow for 2 damage.

Heltinne focuses on her weapon at hand, spending precious moments heating the spear in the campfire in the hopes of it being proof against the ice demons. Signy snaps at the creeping captive to "Stay put, coward!" even as she shares a glance with Heltinne struggling to stay conscious. A burst of eldritch power flashes out to strike a foe for 4 damage.

Yet another flaps over to where your captive is skulking, scratching and clawing at the man as he shrieks and tries to fend it off.

Freyja stumbles to her knees, her spear slipping from her grip...as she tumbles one last swing of her axe smashes into her assailant a final mighty blow for 6 damage. Heltinne steps up standing over the fallen giantess spear warding the body keeping the flapping creature at bay.

Some of the incessant icy assailants find their courage waning with so many of their flock fallen or fled...as Heltinne brandishes her spear the creature flaps away into the dark sky it's strange voice screeching "He comes! He comes for us all! The Lord of Ice and Cold comes for you!". Two more creatures join it, flittering hastily off into the night.

Three more remain. One concentrates as it hovers, before cursing and shaking its fists in rage as its attempt at magic fails. Another swoops down at Elissa like a coward, claws raking her across the back for 4 damage. The final one continues to claw madly at Bjorn, the faltering Northlander barely able to keep in at bay. Signy, bloodied and barely standing, utters the words of her cunning woman magic and the sprite assaulting Bjorn crashes to the ground, unconscious. "Stand strong warriors!
