Kulogall leans out northward and turns west towards the two bridges, and then he casts gust of wind, in a 10 foot wide section that goes 60 feet westward. He hopes to catch as many of the gnolls in the path as possible, and sweep them off the bridge, into the water. They must make a DC 13 strength save or be pushed 15 feet westward, hopefully over the edge of the bridge.
"Wind take you, vile evil creatures, wash away from us and leave us be!"

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
"Oh, Hi there." Elwyn says as three of the gnolls splashes down in the water beside him. He decides to give them a good reception. Action: Cast Thunderwave for 18 Save con 13 for half or pushed 10´ down in the river? Elwyn then swiftly dives down and hides under water about 40' to the east. (No aoo when they are surprised right?)
Elwyn - Two of the three Gnolls are blasted further down river by your Thunderwave. The Gnolls rolled with Disadvantage due to having just fallen into water and trying not to drown while also trying to make the Saving Throw. Also, a surprised creature can take a reaction, but only once their turn ends. It wouldn't make sense for these Gnolls to be able to attack you in this instance though.
Gnoll 6 CON Save: 4
Gnoll 2 CON Save: 8
Gnoll 5 CON Save: 16
ROUND 1
Wake is up! Followed by Gnoll 6, then Ruby. Gnolls 6 & 2 are under the bridge.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Wake will look to the moon and draw down a Sacred Flame upon Gnoll 1. DEX 13 or 6 radiant damage.
He’ll then use his movement to seek as much cover as the roof provides (never was told if 1/2, 3/4, or full coverage was available up here). He will want to maintain lines of sight with as much of the party as possible (sacrificing full cover if needed).
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ruby - Your bolt slams into the large Gnoll, pierces its upper arm. It rips the bolt free with a snarl and glares at you.
Officer Taggert will try to spear the large Gnoll once more.
Attack: 9 Damage: 5
The spear glances off its dirty chain shirt.
The Gnoll Pack Lord 2 will stomp over to where it saw Officer Kowalski and swing its glaive at him.
Attack: 13 Damage: 10
Attack: 20 Damage: 4

Officer Taggert Attack of Opportunity against PL 1.
Attack: 13 Damage: 3
It misses.
Ariana is up! Followed by Kulogall, then Kowalski.
Ariana wasn't expecting the gnolls to come to her so quickly with the other distractions, so the glaive attack caught her off-guard. It digs deep enough into her flesh that the blood rushes from her head and she falls unconscious.
Kulogall moves 5-7.5 feet to the southwest at the corner of the building. He is heartbroken seeing Ariana down and the vile gnoll leaders over her. As a bonus action, he turns the Gust of Air toward them, aiming to move them 15 feet back from her body. (Str save DC 13).
For his main action, he will shoot a fire bolt at the leading gnoll pack lord.
Fire bolt : Attack: 25 Damage: 6

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
Before he can attack the Gnoll Pack Lord standing over Ariana, Officer Kowalski is blown backward by the fierce gale as the Gnolls stand steadfastly in the howling wind.
Your firebolt hits the Gnoll directly in the neck, scorching a large patch of its mangy fur.
Officer Kowalski will stand and run at the Gnolls with a shout, "Get away from her!" as he wields his spear and shield. When he runs back past Gnoll 4, it will drop its bow and try to stick him with its spear.

In its haste, it can't quite get him.

Bonus action: Place Hex (Str, should affect swimming right?) on Gnoll 5 Action: Attack Gnoll 5 Eldritch blast: 22 Force: 8 Necrotic: 1

Gnoll 1 DC 12 STR check: 2
The Gnoll is swept further downstream toward the ocean.
Ruby - You're able to jump down to the awning (three squares south of Kulogall), then to the cart without issue. By using your Cunning Action to dash you're able to make it to Ariana's side. The crossbow bolt misses wide as you try to fire it mid-run.
Officer Taggert will run over to where Ariana and Officer Kowalski are and take up a flanking position behind Pack Lord 2.
Attack: 20 Damage: 3
Even with the superior positioning, she fails to damage the Pack Lord.

Attack: 24 Damage: 12
Attack: 24 Damage: 11

Attack: 8 Damage: 5
Ariana is up! Followed by Kulogall, then Elwyn.
Ariana peeks around the corner of the building and throws a dart at the gnoll sniffing in Ruby's direction.
Dart Attack: 13 Damage: 5
(Taking advantage, as I'm unseen, or take first roll if not granted.)
Kulogall leans out northward and turns west towards the two bridges, and then he casts gust of wind, in a 10 foot wide section that goes 60 feet westward. He hopes to catch as many of the gnolls in the path as possible, and sweep them off the bridge, into the water.
