Ruby takes out her new crossbow and gets a little closer to have better view of the situation. She will try and shoot one of the gnolls to get their attention away from the woman.
Movement: 2 squares south, 1 west Attack on gnoll 2 Crossbow: 9 damage: 4 Sneak attack: 5

Ruby - Your new crossbow proves to be better suited for your particular set of skills, allowing you to easily hit your target among the smoke and chaos. The bolt slams into the gnoll, knocking its shoulder back and drawing a yelp from it. The gnoll next to it cocks its head and then cackles at its wounded comrade.
Gnoll 3 will thrust its spear at the woman with two hands. She side steps the attack and knocks it down and away with her shield.
Attack: 16 Damage: 8
Ariana is up! Followed by Gnoll 1, then the Woman.

Azure, not really a combatant, holds his distance to the fighting and flies deeper into Saltmarsh, trying to spot other attackers and assess the situation. Perception: 19
Elwyn - Per find familiar: While your familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. Additionally, as an action, you can see through your familiar's eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn, gaining the benefits of any special senses that the familiar has. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses.
So if Elwyn wishes to view the scene he will have to wait 'til his turn and use his action, otherwise Azure can view the scene but Elwyn will not glean much information from what the familiar is capable of communicating.

Wake panics momentarily as he sees Gorik dive into the middle of battle (without raging first), allowing himself to be completely surrounded. There’s no good solution.
Wake raises his shield, presenting his holy symbol and advances SE 5’ against the building. He then begins concentrating and uttering a prayer which opens the sky and a silvery shaft of light descends on the Gnoll Witherling.
Moonbeam: CON 13 or 11 radiant damage at the beginning of its turn, half as much if saved.
Wake - The gnoll witherling shrieks in pain as the moonlight incinerates its decayed form. Bones char and leathery sinew blackens and the undead gnoll crumples to the ground.
Gnoll Witherling is DEAD.
Gnoll Witherling CON Save: 12
Elwyn is up! Followed by Kulogall, then the Gnoll Hunter.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Oh no, Gorik." Elwyn sprints up between Ruby and Wake and swiftly curses the gnoll hunter before using his tentacle-shaped wand to blast it with crackling blue force.
Kulogall moves two squares north and one square east of Ariana (red A, right?), and seeing Elwyn give the evil eye to the gnoll hunter, he shoots gouts of flame out of his hands, angling this cone to hit gnoll 1 and the gnoll hunter, he hits them with burning hands for 12 points of fire damage, DC 13 Dex save to take half.

Kulogall - The Gnoll Hunter does not save, how do you want to do this? Gnoll 1 gets its shield up in time to block most of the flame.
The Gnoll Hunter is DEAD.
I moved you north of Ariana in order to hit both Gnoll 1 and the Gnoll Hunter without hitting Gorik or Ariana.
Gnoll 1 DEX Save: 3
Gnoll Hunter DEX Save: 8
The Gnoll Hunter will attack Gorik with its spear, thrusting at him twice with advantage due to flanking. The first attack catches him in the side, but he manages to dodge the second.
Attack: 7 Damage: 6
Attack: 11 Damage: 3
Gnoll 2 will turn and attack Gorik as well. The spear digs into him and the Gnoll gives an excited yip.
Kulogall steps forward and puts his thumbs together, pointing his fingers at the first gnoll and the gnoll hunter. Arcing rivulets of flame extend outward toward both of them, the first gnoll puts up his shield in time, blocking some of the flames from his body. The majority of the flame shoots over and into the gnoll hunter, who shrieks as his body is set on fire, charring and dropping to the ground, making a horrible stench and agonizing sound. After the flame exits his hands, Kulogall flies up into the air and lands backward 5 feet, on his feet and tense, at the ready, staff in his hand.

Ariana is up! Followed by Gnoll 1, then the Woman.
(ooc: I think Gorik is up)
Ariana will run forward, down the steps, and get between the woman and the gnolls as best she can. Then she'll swing her quarterstaff at Gnoll 2.
Movement: South 3, east 1, south 1, southwest 1 (she should now be between Gnoll 1 and the Woman)
Quarterstaff Attack: 19 Damage: 4
She'll then channel her Ki to get into a defensive stance and use Patient Defense (dodge as a bonus action).
Ariana - You're right, I hadn't sorted my Excel initiative list after adding his.
Gorik is up!
Gorik will run up to Gnoll 2 and swing his mighty, newly acquired, maul at Gnoll 2.
Attack: 12 Damage: 12
Gorik - The gnoll smashes the maul aside with its shield, then glares and snarls at you.
Ariana - Your staff cracks the gnoll across the face as its distracted by Gorik, its jaw hangs broken but it still stands.
Gnoll 1 will attempt to skewer Ariana with its spear. Even as she moves in well a practiced set of defensive steps, the spear catches her side.
Attack: 19 Damage: 5
The woman will try to finish off the wounded gnoll. It knocks the thrust aside with its own spear as its broken jaw slings saliva through the air.
Attack: 3 Damage: 6
Azure is up! Followed by Wake, then the Gnoll Witherling.
Azure, not really a combatant, holds his distance to the fighting and flies deeper into Saltmarsh, trying to spot other attackers and assess the situation.
Perception: 19
Elwyn - Per find familiar: While your familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically.

So if Elwyn wishes to view the scene he will have to wait 'til his turn and use his action, otherwise Azure can view the scene but Elwyn will not glean much information from what the familiar is capable of communicating.
No, Azure is on his own, hopefully coming back shortly, warning Elwyn of any threats further ahead.
Wake panics momentarily as he sees Gorik dive into the middle of battle (without raging first), allowing himself to be completely surrounded. There’s no good solution.
Wake raises his shield, presenting his holy symbol and advances SE 5’ against the building. He then begins concentrating and uttering a prayer which opens the sky and a silvery shaft of light descends on the Gnoll Witherling.

Elwyn is up! Followed by Kulogall, then the Gnoll Hunter.
Elwyn - Azure hasn't yet returned.
"Oh no, Gorik." Elwyn sprints up between Ruby and Wake and swiftly curses the gnoll hunter before using his tentacle-shaped wand to blast it with crackling blue force.
Movement: Square between Ruby and Wake
Bonus action: Hex, dex vs Gnoll Hunter
Action: Eldritch blast: 14 Force: 9 Necrotic: 3
Elwyn - Your eldritch blast hits the gnoll in the gut, it gasps for air as its eyes bulge in their sockets.
Kulogall is up! Followed by the Gnoll Hunter, then Gnoll 2.
Kulogall moves two squares north and one square east of Ariana (red A, right?), and seeing Elwyn give the evil eye to the gnoll hunter, he shoots gouts of flame out of his hands, angling this cone to hit gnoll 1 and the gnoll hunter, he hits them with burning hands for 12 points of fire damage, DC 13 Dex save to take half.

In that case Kulogall flies up in the air 10 feet and lands 5 feet back to be out of range of gnoll 1. Bonus action after his level 1 spell.

Movement: north-east of the woman

Gorik is up! Don't forget to advance to level 3.
Kulogall steps forward and puts his thumbs together, pointing his fingers at the first gnoll and the gnoll hunter.
