I think it would be wise for Therkis to take the lead because of his PERCEPTION skills. He still has a rope attached to his waist and would appreciate it if Orjon would hold the other end and keep out the slack in case he falls. He will continue the technique of hitting the floor in front of him hard with the quarterstaff in front of him.
As you walk into the room it appears empty. But the ceiling is higher then previous rooms. Looking up you see 4 gargoyles come to life. They drop down and attack
He will then take the (hasted) Attack action and burn one of his Channel Divinity points for Vow of Enmity (adv on attacks). He targets the closest gargoyle.
Attack: Nat 20 + 9 =29 to hit. 23 damage (17 bldg, 6 rdnt) Gargoyle is sapped.
Bonus action: Divine Smite 11 dmg (rdnt)
shied bash: 17 str save or prone.
EDIT: Forgot for a moment but can’t cast 2 leveled spells on the same turn. Canceling divine smite.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Orjon is going to use elemental burst, trying to get as many gargoyles that fit within a 20ft radius. DC: 17 Dex Save. 20 Thunder dmg on a fail, half as much on a success.
after that he will fly to the same gargoyle that Aelar is attacking and use a bonus action unarmed strike
unarmed strike: 11 to hit, 10 force dmg, DC 19 save against grapple
Orjon is able to strike from 10 ft away, so with the rest of his movement (he has 65 ft of movement idk how much it took to get tot the gargoyle) Orjon will run as far back as he can
looking up and the malformed gargoyles, Orjon leans back, and with his mighty goliath hands creates a loud clap. nothing happens for a moments before an even louder boom resonates where the gargoyles are perched. he then sprints at the gargoyle by Aelar to give it 1 good sucker punch before retreating back.
As the party walks into the room. The Gargoyles drop from the ceiling. Valagan steps on a trigger causing a dart to shoot from the wall hitting him in the neck. A second later he drops dead his body wasteing away too quickly to be natural.
G1 and G2 Rush Therkis as he was up front.

Leif (place holder the alert feat doest help do you want to do something if not you get the dodge action)
Orjon blasts thunder into the pack of gargoyles. (All fail G1 near death) He then moves to support Alwar but his punch doesn't land. He then retreats
Therkis retreats into the shadows.

End of round 1 post when able Leif also post what you did in round 1
When G1 rushes Therkis and attacks, Aelar uses his Protection fighting style feat to impose disadvantage on all attacks against Therkis (including G2).
When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can take a Reaction to interpose your Shield if you’re holding one. You impose Disadvantage on the triggering attack roll and all other attack rolls against the target until the start of your next turn if you remain within 5 feet of the target.
With a 22 AC (20 + 2 from haste): G3.2 hits and G4.1,2,4 hit (assuming Nat 20 will hit a 22 AC?) total damage taken: 51

Yes Nat 20 always hits. Going to edit the original post if the second roll is lower (we never established where everyone was except that Therkis was up front. Going to assume you where second in line to make this valid)
Bushawk, when Therkis notices the 2 Gargoyles coming at him, he casts Shield as a REACTION. That increases his AC +5, from 17 to 22. I believe that reduces the damage done to Therkis to 31...all of it coming from Gargoyle 2.

Check again, Aelar protected you so there were re-rolls.
OOC - @dm was the Nat 20 for G2.3 not rerolled or did it end up being 2 Nat 20s 😳

Orjon is more than happy to hold the rope and floats behind Therkis
The door has no traps.
As you walk into the room it appears empty. But the ceiling is higher then previous rooms. Looking up you see 4 gargoyles come to life. They drop down and attack
Roll initiative.
initiative: 19
Aelar dirty 21
Leif initiative 19
Therkis rolls an 11 for initiative
DM: The Gargoyles are mutations companied to the one in the picture. They have 4 arms and 2 tails. Each is wearing a collar studded with gems.
Gargoyles got 23, 21, 11 and 7. Will be using G1-G4 for them. Post when able for Round 1. Valagan post your first action whit your initive.
Aelar will cast haste on himself (concentrating).
He will then take the (hasted) Attack action and burn one of his Channel Divinity points for Vow of Enmity (adv on attacks). He targets the closest gargoyle.
Attack: Nat 20 + 9 =29 to hit. 23 damage (17 bldg, 6 rdnt)
Gargoyle is sapped.
Bonus action: Divine Smite 11 dmg (rdnt)shied bash: 17 str save or prone.
EDIT: Forgot for a moment but can’t cast 2 leveled spells on the same turn. Canceling divine smite.
TLDR: 23 total damage, sapped, and possible prone
Leif will swap his initiative with Therkis if it allows Therkis to act before the gargoyles (alert feat).
Therkis unties the rope that is around his waist and maneuvers around the Gargoyles and attempts to HIDE in the shadows.
Therkis rolls a 14 +13 =27, beating the DC15 Stealth check. I believe that Therkis is now INVISIBLE to the Gargoyles.

So, what is my damage, after casting SHIELD?
