After a while the group, Following tracks see in the middle of the forest four strange, portly humanoid figures made entirely of snow stand among the snow covered trees of Newville Forest. They stand tall and jolly, some with corncob pipes stuck in thei snow-slashed mouths, others with coal eyes and carrot noses. All of them have long, spindly stick arms. As you draw close, their ash black eyes seem to be set upon each member of the group.

They could be just snowmen.
Still, Wyce, an Eldritch knight, mentally confirms he has prepared Absorb Elements, which is always true.

Anne goes up to the snowmen with a friendly smile and talks to them in druidic.
"Greetings Snowmen Guardians! My name is Raggedy Anne of the druids of the Holly and Ivy. My friends and I are seeking safe passage to the Mountains of Mount Strumpet. Will you allow us safe passage through? We seek to destroy the Crueltide elves and their monstrous master who has destroyed others and left death and destruction in their wake. "

Protect the others," Elias whispers into his reindeers ear before firing off an arrow into the snowman who's furthest away, from there he sprints diagonally up the hill knowing he needs to get himself into a position where hopefully they'll Ignore him and he can quickly take these creatures out.
Alas for Elias his shot is way too long, his reindeer on the other hand reach Snowman1 but strangely when Elias' compnion bites the snowman, it is mostly snow the animal got in his mouth.
Reindeer damage is halved.

Snowman3 disappear suddenly in the snow to reappear immediately after near Elias. Using his nose like a dagger and his twig arm like a mini spike it launches his attacks against the ranger who is still holding his bow.

Elias is totally surprised by the snowman attack, it disappeared more than 30 feet from the ranger an reappeared nearly instantaneously in his back using his nose as a dagger and his twig arm as a mini spear and with a strong thrust pierce the man armor with the nose and pass its twig toan unprotected part of the armor.
Elias hurts like hell.
ERROR FROM MY PART -> Damage 7 + 10 + 9 = -28 hp, Elias is still standing. Since I was at fault I took out the stronger sneak attack.
