This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
[Uh... did I just crit twice in a row... is it showing you the damage rolls at all??? LOL...]
Drow Assassin's Turn:
The lone male drow in this group rolls into view just briefly before firing a shot.. at Aster! In undercommon, he swears, "Lowly swine! Stab the human in the back and perhaps your sacrifice will be quick!"
Attack: 26 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
After firing his shot, he will tuck out of the way and out of sight again.
[Bonus Action: Dash, move 30 ft and shoot at star, then move to the left for what is currently full cover from everyone's current angle.]

The most problematic drow makes her appearance -- the spellcaster. She runs out and encants something, though you are too far away to hear it. Regardless, she thrusts her hands out towards all of you and a Ray of Frost flies directly towards Aster!
Attack: 12 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
Just like her cohort, she moves out of view.

[Khessa would have had Shield reaction, but useless sgsinst ctits. May I know assess Drow1 is faring? Both Aster and Khessa hit him (for 11 + 11 = 22 damage total)? Can we understand how wounded he is (slightly / heavily)? Just to better plan whst Song and Clara should do]
Khessa is surprised by the skill of the drow who have pressed her with the shortswords: the two overcome her defenses with incredible ease, without even leaving her time to defend herself with magic!
'They must be their elite...' thinks the blonde arcane warrior, gritting her teeth as the adrenaline of battle and the magic potion she just drank helps her bear the pain of the spikes that have found their way to her body 'Good thing I lured them on me! If they had focused on someone else…'
[I decided to post crew's turns now, beacuse I might have less time after. I might insert some 'if']
if Drow1 is still alive:
Song tries to take out the isolated drow as Khessa advised and steps forward to take it down with her morningstar!
[OOC: Song takes one step north-west, thus getting in line with Clara and Aster, then she attacks Drow1]
If Drow1 is dead:
'Khessa needs help' Song thinks, concerned. The tiefling goes to help her friend, who however shouts: "Not too close to me!" So Song corrects her direction, taking a slightly wider path to attack with his morningstar the drow who is still in the magical vegetation created by Clara.
[OOC: Song takes two steps north-west, then she attacks Drow2]
if Drow1 is still alive (I really really really hope not?!):
Clara tries to finish off the isolated drow as Khessa had advised and looking at him with eyes of embers she growls: "Burn!" Clara's magic is unleashed, unleashing flames under the drow's feet.
[OOC: Clara casts Create Bonfire on Drow1 - since this cantrip, sadly, requires concentration, she will lose concentration on Entangle, that terminates]
[Not updating map, since she did not move...]
If Drow1 is dead:
"Clara, try to trap the two who are out of sight now!" shouts Khessa urgently. And the Chauntea's cleric, maneuvering briefly to be able to see the area in which to move her magical influence, stops concentrating on the magical plants that she has previously summoned to summon others to hinder the two more elusive enemies... then she runs back to cover.
[OOC: Clara moves three steps east, casts a new Entangle in the square with a diagonal going from 9 steps north from her before-move positon to 6 north 3 east. She then moves back where she was]

(AHHH I AM ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL. Yes, Drow 1 is dead for sure... MY APOLOGIES T___________T. He died after Aster's attack.)
The drow before Aster drops dead after having been jabbed in the gut. "I assure you, my kin, I will not go quietly or cleanly for that matter."
Song brings down her morningstar against the other drow woman. "These drow... they aren't all that strong!"Her morningstar manages to push through the shortsword block and bludgeons the drow.
"I'm on it, Khessa!"Clara dashes out in a similar fashion to the spellslinger and inspires the earth to grow out a wild entanglement. Its hard to tell, but it seems at least one of the drow in the back are inconvenienced by this spell!

Oh, since Drow1 was dead already, Khessa (who attacked after Aster) could have targeted Drow2 in her round1's turn? (And 15 was enough to hit? Else it does not matter that much after all)
Khessa is relieved to see the drow are falling… One enemy has been slain in one blow… another is wounded…
'I had overestimated these three more advanced drow...' realizes the blonde arcane warrior 'They are skilled strikers, but they can hardly take a blow. I don't need to Thunderwave them'.
Thus adapting her strategy to the situation, the tall adventuress once again brandishes Cabbage Patch Avenger and lowers it in a horizontal slash at waist height, trying to finish off the same drow that Song has engaged.
[I have the strong impression that Drow2 has just been cut in half - I post as if this happened - if he is tougher than Drow1 and still lives, I'll amend]
The drow is completely taken aback by the speed of which the magical blade is capable and the violence of the blow, multiplied by Khessa's anger against those responsible for so many misdeeds, is such that the unfortunate opponent finds himself cut in half at waist height and collapses to the ground in two pieces and a fountain of blood.
The blonde arcane warrior tries to further depress her enemies' morale, laughing loudly as she is still drenched in the blood of her victim: "I warned you my blade was thirsty!" and the exaltation is such that the blue-eyed fury seems to be practically unaffected by the two blows she has just suffered!
"You're next..." the tall adventuress stares at the last drow in close combat with a murderous gleam in her blue eyes "unless you do the wise thing and drop that toothpick you are pretending to fight me with".
[OOC: Khessa uses her Second Wind to regain hp. Map not updated, since she did not move...]
