Nia Will keep an eye on the intruders. If they look like they are strapping up for a fight, she will prepare to shoot at them.
If they arrive in a small group, she will try to convince them to back off with a warning shot with a normal arrow [Ooc: a la “I didn’t have to miss.”]
If they surge in in force, Nia will go “the hell with it” and aim for the center of their group with the Hellfire arrow while screaming an elvish curse.
See, here's the thing. Gegren *really* doesn't like these guys and really doesn't want to deal with being captured by them (it may be a trauma thing from turning into a demon and what he's heard of what these guys will do to him if they get hold of him). At the same time, he's not a murderer. Gegren focuses his will on one of the stones at the lead intruder's feet, while the intruder is still reeling and blinded... [Shatter on the stone floor near the lead intruder, cost 1 intellect point, +3 for easing with effort. Maybe another ease from Intimidation skill? beats a difficulty 2 task. (d20=7). So beats 3 or 4 depending...] [Shatter does 1 point of damage in the immediate area even if I failed, it just depends on if my aim was good or not I think] An explosion goes off nearby to the intruders, and one of the stone cobbles of the floor shatters into shrapnel that hits everything nearby. Gegren will step forward, still stopping the automaton from moving forward, and do his best to look his most demonic. "LEAVE. NOW. THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING."
