Attack: Melee 1 (one creature); +23 vs. AC

Hit: 2d10 + 9 damage plus 1d10 cold and necrotic damage, and the target cannot spend healing surges until the end of Soth's next turn. If this attack drops the target below 1 hit point, Soth gains an action point that he must spend before the end of his next turn, or he loses the point.

✻ Wall of Ice (cold, conjuration) ✦ Recharge ⚄ ⚅

Effect: Area wall 8 within 20 squares. Soth creates a wall of solid ice up to 4 squares high in unoccupied squares on the ground. The wall lasts until the end of the encounter or until it is destroyed. Any creature that starts its turn adjacent to the wall takes 15 cold damage.    The wall blocks line of sight and line of effect, and it can be attacked. The wall has Soth's defenses, ignoring any temporary bonuses or penalties, and each square of the wall has 20 hit points. The wall is immune to cold and has vulnerable 15 fire.
