George rushes up to the count with axe in hand and Strahd smiles. “Dear George, hello again. I recall this going well for you last time. Your friend, Adanmar, would not have died if not for your incompetence, no? For that is what you are, a dumb beast, nothing more.”
Meanwhile, it is now Viorela’s turn! The horde of rats continues toward you! You are also within dashing distance.

"I've got no time to be dealing with damn rats!"Viorela shouts as she continues to press onwards. She will dash toward Strahd, hissing, "Hiding behind vermin are you, vampire? How lowly. How pathetic."
(Just to have it ready, Viorela is going to pop a shield if she gets attacked. So her AC will be 21 when/if something hits her.)

The two rat swarms nip and bite at Viorela, Attack: 20 Damage: 9 and 21 Damage: 4 piercing damage. A single rat manages to find a chink in the smoke-like, draconic scales that surround Viorela. It bites deeply into her neck and is then promptly thrown off the edge of the stairs. Viorela then makes her way up to the count. As she does, her heart beats heavily as the world slows to a crawl. To be standing face-to-face with... Him. In this slowed time, you see him turn to you, not with fear, nor recognition, or even irritation. He looks disinterested toward you.
He turns his gaze back to George, “George, she looks as though she desires my demise. You will not allow this, now will you? Cast her off the edge for me.”
George, give me a DC 17 Wis Save. With the 15 that you rolled...
George’s eyes flash a familiar red. The behemoth has once again fallen under Strahd’s command.
"You coward Lord Sucker, just keep throwing your pets after us" The Revenant frees his Sunsword and starts to cut the damned rats down
"Davmorn" he yells "Free George from his mind control!"
((Attack1: 16Radiant Damage: 8 / Attack 2: 27Radiant Damage: 9 and with his Bonus Action Adanmar use his Blood Curse of the Marked on Strahd))
The rat horde is thoroughly obliterated by the light, reducing the skittering mass to ash. You feel your mark take hold of Strahd, at which he turned, “Ah, he raises a fair point. George, go throw the sunsword off the edge, however you need to.”
Elwarith drools. He is seeing some heavy stuff right now. Black tentacles are writhing out of the chests of Adanmar and Strahd, Viorela is a dragon, rats are exploding. It is wild.
Davmorn, broken and battered, charges up to Elwarith and slaps him on the butt, “Wake up!” Lesser restoration to cure Elwarith’s paralysis. Elwarith is brought back to reality! He then moves the magic blade 20ft forward!

George Dash to Adanmar. Preposition rub off on George.

Strahd looks mildly surprised, “Lovely, he can follow orders. Now for the woman.” Using a legendary action, Strahd turns toward Viorela and swings the back of his hand toward her, 21. The vampires hand collides with Viorela’s face with unprecedented force and then, just as quickly, grasps around her throat. “You seem to despise me for some reason... Who are you again?”

"Heh-"Viorela chokes out, "T-Thanks for coming to me, monster!" She channels all her fury and loathing onto Strahd, and strikes at him with her whip twice!
Bonus Action: Channel Divinity: Vow of Enmity
As a bonus action, you can choose a creature within 10 ft. and gain advantage on attack rolls against it for 1 minute or until it drops to 0 HP or falls unconscious.
Attack 1: Attack: 24 Damage: 10 slashing damage -> If hits -> 12 radiant damage from 2nd lvl spell. Attack 2: Attack: 24 Damage: 9 slashing damage -> If hits -> 18 radiant damage from 2nd lvl spell.
Note: I double checked, it seems grapple doesn't give me disadvantage RAW. Feel free to rule as you see fit.

The whip, as if controlled by the malice of your patron towards this undead abomination, wraps around Strahd’s arm like a serpent! Holy energy sparks and ignites along the arm of the vampire! His eyes go wide with pain as the radiant energy sears his flesh and halts his regenerative capabilities. The whip has cut him to the very marrow.
However... using two legendary actions, Strahd will lift Viorela aloft, “On second thought, I don’t care who you are.” He will then try to bite her! Attack: 20, for 10 piercing damage and 12 necrotic damage! Viorela can feel the blood drain from her body as the vampire leeches upon her. Her Max Hp is reduced by 11.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Amazingly, the maneuver manages to fool the behemoth as George stops his charge and looks confused at the apparent magic that has taken place. He never knew that Adanmar was a wizard!
Meanwhile, at the top of the stairwell, Viorela is still being strangled by the good Count. Strahd looks distainfully upon both Viorela and his charred, unhealing arm, as blood trickles out of her fresh neck wound, “Pathetic.” He presses his thumb into her windpipe, his unnatural strength crushing her breathing, Attack: 10 Damage: 6 bludgeoning damage and 15 necrotic damage. Viorela’s vision darkens as she blacks out. However, Strahd tightens his grip, intent on killing the girl, Attack: 24 which is 2 death saves down. Viorela clings to life by a thread.

With his vision clearing and his senses returning he looks up the stairs once again at the vampire lord.....holding a limp Viorela

and since I'm pretty sure one of those last two at least hit he'll take an extra 6 psychic damage and Strahd needs to make a DC 11 WIS save or be unable to see anything farther than 5 ft. away until the start of my next turn. (Shadow arrow arcane shot)
and then if I can still - I'd like to use my Second Wind to gain back 11 HP

Two of the arrows pierce through Strahd’s arm as turns his gaze from Viorela to Elwarith, “Perhaps, but not before her life.” Strahd uses a legendary action to try to kill Viorela, Attack: 27. With that, there is a snap, and he drops However the shadow in the arrow explodes: Wis Save: 12, and he just beats it.
Davmorn is next up!
Running past Elwarith, Davmorn shouts, “Good to see you up lad! Come on!” Running 30 feet, Davmorn will cast Hold Person on Strahd! (Wis: 8). Strahd’s body begins locking up, but you see him strain against what seem to be invisible chains that shatter like glass! Strahd uses a Legendary Resistance to resist. The spiritual weapon follows after him.
George rushes up to the count with axe in hand and Strahd smiles. “Dear George, hello again. I recall this going well for you last time. Your friend, Adanmar, would not have died if not for your incompetence, no? For that is what you are, a dumb beast, nothing more.”
