Eldon's hand begins to glow as celestial words radiate from his mouth - he raise his hand slowly to the ghoul, the absolute hatred for the undead creature apparent on his face.
Alarmed at Cinna's casting of shillelegh, Kestrell runs down the hallway until he turns the corner and sees the terrifying looking ghoul. Startled, he casts Vicious Mockery on Ghoul1:
"Hey ghoul, you are a fool, and now you're going to drool!"
[OOC] G1 must make a wisdom saving throw of 13 or take 1 points of psychic damage and have disadvantage on its next attack.
(OOC: Seeing Cinna cast Shillelagh would not be enough to alarm you of the ghoul's presence. Typically I would want you to make a Perception. For the sake of progression, I'll overlook it. For future reference, I may not be so lenient.)
Ghoul One Wis Save: 18
The ghoul mindless groans as he hears Kestrell's subpar rhyme. He suffers no ill effects.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Urgog maneuvers the Glaive past Eldon's head, and cleaves the ghoul's head off its shoulders. The ghoul's body collapses from the dead weight. Urgog has slain the ghoul.
It now goes to Ghoul Three.
The ghoul in front of Zed is salivating, and it leans forward, widening its jaw to crunch down on Zed's neck.
Attack: 13 Damage: 8
The ghoul viciously bites onto Zed's neck, crunching into Zed's trachea.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Bleeding profusely Zed realizes he is in mortal danger. He disengages and moves forward through the ghoul and into the top left corner of the next room.
Using Action Surge he will gain an additional action. He then uses second wind to heal himself. Heal: 9
Zed swiftly departs from the ghoul's array without provoking an opportunity attack. Managing to heal himself from the damage he's withstood thus far.
It now goes to Ghoul Four.
The ghoul notices Zed stumbling into the den, clutching his neck from the excruciating pain. The ghoul expends 15 movement to approach Zed, and will attempt to clash him with a Claw attack.
Attack: 9 Damage: 7
Despite the pain Zed is experiencing, he anticipates the Ghoul's claw attack, and avoids the strike altogether.
It now goes to Ghoul Two.
The ghoul will enter the hallway again, leaving the shrine room. He moves 25 feet to be between Eldon and Kestrell. The ghoul makes a claw attack against Kestrell.
Attack: 19 Damage: 6
Kestrell gets taken by surprised when the ghoul returns and the ghoul claws downward across his chest.
Kestrell now needs to make a Constitution saving throw.
OOC: Since you took the Search action, you won't be able to take the Attack action. Do you still want to make the movement?

(OOC: Oh, sorry! No, I'll just go ahead and cast shillelagh and stay where I was.)
