TL|DR -
Artemis took out a few soldiers, but managed to get some attention he could have done without. His link to the outside world is severed as is his similar mental connection to his weapon. The reason of which has yet to be identified by the players and attempts to utilize mental contact create an increased headache. Five rounds (three fire, two wind) are on course to connect.
Vincent similarly took out a few soldiers and spared Cain a free session of acupuncture. However, the lightning rounds from the attackers are providing trouble for anyone standing in water. He too is cut off from the outside world and is affected by a dull, throbbing headache with any attempt.
Cain has successfully disarmed Terrance, but has yet to wrest the weapon from his body thanks to the leather strap around the torso. Lightning rounds from the attacker have electrocuted Terrance and their effect is unknown (lethal or incapacitating). The rounds have energized the puddles of rain and are attempting to do the same to Cain as they did to Terrance.
Devyn is largely unaffected in this post. She is at an angle where rounds have limited chance to affect her, but the electricity in the water may prove troublesome to her.
All of them have noticed that when the lightning strikes nearby, it not only throws up dirt, rock, and mud where it impacts, but tosses around the mysterious crystals littered everywhere. These crystals are energized by the lightning and explode in flight, raining shards and shrapnel.
Cover is highly advised. The attackers are affected by magic similarly to anyone else. Communications via mental or magical means within and outside of the area are suspiciously cut off. Each projectile spell is not lethal in its own right, but packs quite the wallop. Fire projectiles are infinitely less lethal, but the electrical ones are more potent with less range thanks to the rain. Ice shards and wind blasts are not affected by the weather.
Attackers are of varying skin color, eye color, and hair color. Their garbs are standard civilian with no identifying markers. Each one has an unusual trait that is nearly unheard of like a red and white eye. Skin splotched with darker or lighter patches. Horns on some and tails on others without similar demonic identifiers. All of them are seemingly a mashup of world races (orc, elf, dwarf, human, draconian, fey, etc).
I am free for questions.
