Urgog pierces the ghoul in the chest with a vicious thrust of his Glaive. The blade impales the ghoul, and it groans loudly. The ghoul remains on its feet, although it appears to be clinging to the undeath by a thread.
It now goes to Ghoul Three.
The ghoul will move up behind Urgog, and will attempt to rake Urgog's back with a wicked claw attack.
Attack: 15 Damage: 9
Urgog was able to hear the ghoul's groans and footsteps. Urgog's alertness allowed him to avoid the claw attack.
Eldon strikes the ghoul with a thunderous blow to the dome. The ghoul's head is ripped off its shoulder as it gets hurled into the basement wall. Its body falls limp to the cold floor. Eldon has slain the ghoul.
Kestrell is still Paralyzed and remains motionless.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Zed creeps close to death as he fails the saving throw.
It now goes to Ghoul Four.
He sees that Zed is potentially dead, the ghoul loses interest. He goes back up the hallway to regroup with his other ghoulish friend, and attempts to swipe Urgog with a claw attack. (He'll roll with disadvantage as he'll have to occupy the same space as Ghoul 3.)
Attack: 12 Damage: 6
The ghouls bump into each other as the ghoul attempts to strike Urgog, ultimately to miss.
OOC: Sorry, I thought him occupying the same space as 3 during his attack meant he stayed there. Could I move 5 ft then use thorn whip on 3 past E and U even if it would pull him into their spaces? Or would it not pull him?
Yes, you may use Thorn Whip. You'll need to be able to pull the ghoul into an open space, such as the space between Kestrell and Eldon. You'd either have to move back to where you're at or two spaces north, above that small stairwell. Go ahead and make the attack roll with disadvantage since Urgog is taking up practically the entire hallway.
Cinna moves inward, between Eldon and Kestrell. With surgical precision, she unleashes her thorn whip beyond Eldon and Urgog, and the whip coil's around the ghoul. Cinna musters all her might to yank the ghoul closer to her, as the thorns of her whip rip into the ghoul's flesh. She steps back, around the corner, in order to pull the ghoul through Urgog and Eldon. Cinna successfully pulls the ghoul through Eldon and Urgog's space, and the ghoul is now forcefully standing between Kestrell and Eldon.
Urgog sees Eldon attacking the second ghoul, he reaches past him with the glaive to stab the ghoul in the chest.

Cinna takes 30 ft of her movement to get on the right side of ghoul 3. She attacks with her quarterstaff again. Attack 23 Damage 10

Ghoul 4 is currently occupying that space. You have enough movement to move past Ghoul 4, but doing so will provoke an OA from Ghoul 3.
