[If I've copied down everyone's AC correctly, I think Xavier narrowly avoids getting bitten, but Roy takes a nasty crit that puts him unconscious. Roy, you can still take that AoO against #6 (that happened first), and you'll still need to make that save against poison, and then it's your turn, so you'll need to make a death save.]
Mirt hops around in his underwear, trying to pull on his breeches.
[And after Roy's turn, it's Rel's chance to convince security to come help. Oh, which reminds me, Rel you gain inspiration for the out-of-the box thinking.]
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Thank you, and Rel will immediately use that Inspiration point)
Seeing that the guards do not appear to appreciate the gravity of the situation, Rel will stand at full height, regard them seriously, and say, "We were ordered to deliver a package to the Commander, which we did. He asked us to open it, which we did. Inside was a swarm of some sort of alien creatures straight out of a nightmare, and they are currently inside that room biting the commander and my fellow cadets. If you want to be responsible for their deaths, I will make sure everyone knows you were informed and did nothing. Or, you can come inside with me and be the heroes of the day." He then turns and runs back to the room.

As Rel delivers his report, the security officer's expressions change from dismissive, through concerned, to downright worried. As the satyr races back to the room, he hears one of them barking orders: "Matthews, go see if that merchant ship is still in sky dock, and keep it there. Rayburn, get the crews from stations nine and seven..." Sounds like help is on the way, but may take a round or two to arrive.

Zaius hoots in excitement as the creature to his front falls to his scimitar before spinning and focusing his attention on the others still climbing out of the box. He slices with his scimitar again and with his foot tries to shut the box, hopefully trapping some of the creatures inside. He steps forward to place himself between the creatures and Mirt.

Zaius slaughters another of the hatchlings; fully half of them little the floor, dead.
[We're in the second rounds, so I'll say just one of them is still half out of the crate, and has to make a DC10 dex save or get caught half-out by the lid and have to spend its next action to get out: #3 dex save:7]
Xavier would reach for his stick, before deciding against it. It was more fun to fight unarmed anyway. He made a quick straight punch towards the nearest hatchling, before following it up with a right hook (on either the hatchling or the next nearest should it die)

Two punches are all Xavier needs to take down yet another of the creatures! Only three remain, one badly injured and two as fresh as the moment they came out of the crate. One attacks Xavier, while the other two bite at Zaius!
[#6 bite at Xavier: 12 for 2 plus 5 poison damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for 1 minute #1 bite at Zaius: 14 for 4 plus 2 poison damage, same save #3 bite at Zaius: 7 for 4 plus 2 poison damage, same save]
From the doorway, Rel gasps as he sees Roy unconscious on the ground. He rushes to his side, (ending up in the square just to Roy's left) and plays a 5-note trill on his panpipe while laying a hand on his fallen comrade. (cure wounds for 7 hp healing)
[Well, that obviates Roy's death save; he's conscious (though still prone) with 7 hp. Next up is Gloix, then Zaius and Xavier (you guys are really giving the lower left of my keyboard a workout :)]

Still smarting from the creature’s bite, Zaius tries to return the favor, slashing down on the beast with his scimitar. “Stay back, sir!” he calls out to Mirt “let us handle this”
Attack: 22 Damage: 5 slashing damage on #1

Roy Con Save: 19
Roy collapses to the flor after the hatchlings successful attack.
(Sorry thing are a bit out of order here, the save above was vs the poison. Next will be AoO and then death save.
Attack of Opportunity: 9 Damage: 5
Death save: 4
Oriovar - Wood Elf Cleric (1) - Sword Coast Campaign
Roy Quigley - Human Artificer (1) - Karrion's Spelljammer Academy Starboard
Neither of those attacks hit as Xavier swiftly dodges the two attacking hatchlings

Persuasion (with advantage from Inspiration) 22
"... and someone might want to stop the ship that delivered the package from departing!" he calls back over his shoulder.

[Help will arrive with initiative 5 on round 4]
[It's Gloix's turn!]
[Looks like Gloix is still unavailable, I'll take another action for him to keep us moving]
Gloix circles around behind Zaius, and fires a bullet from his sling at the creature that bit Roy.
[Sling at #1: 6 for 3 bludgeoning damage]
[Well that was a terrible roll. Zaius is up next, then Xavier]
[back and working on catchup up. Sorry for any delay I caused and thank you for covering for me!]

[Xavier is up]
Xavier would reach for his stick, before deciding against it. It was more fun to fight unarmed anyway. He made a quick straight punch towards the nearest hatchling, before following it up with a right hook (on either the hatchling or the next nearest should it die)
Attack 1 To hit: 18 Damage: 5
Attack 2 To hit: 18 Damage: 6
Bludge for both
Two punches are all Xavier needs to take down yet another of the creatures! Only three remain, one badly injured and two as fresh as the moment they came out of the crate. One attacks Xavier, while the other two bite at Zaius!
[#6 bite at Xavier: 12 for 2 plus 5 poison damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for 1 minute
#1 bite at Zaius: 14 for 4 plus 2 poison damage, same save
#3 bite at Zaius: 7 for 4 plus 2 poison damage, same save]
Two miss their targets, but the injured hatchling, fighting for its life, takes a nasty bite out of Zaius!
[It's Roy's turn, which means I need another death save]
Mirt rushes for his belt and rapier, but his breeches slip down on route and send him sprawling.
[Then the next up is Relonius]
From the doorway, Rel gasps as he sees Roy unconscious on the ground. He rushes to his side, (ending up in the square just to Roy's left) and plays a 5-note trill on his panpipe while laying a hand on his fallen comrade. (cure wounds for 7 hp healing)
[Well, that obviates Roy's death save; he's conscious (though still prone) with 7 hp. Next up is Gloix, then Zaius and Xavier (you guys are really giving the lower left of my keyboard a workout :)]
Zaius hisses in pain as the creature's teeth sinks into him, but he pulls away to reduce the damage by 3.
Con Save: 23.
(uses Hadozee Dodge as a reaction to reduce damage)
Gloix puts another stone into his sling and gives it a whirl over his head before letting it go towards the hatchling again!
Sling to 1 - Attack: 5 Damage: 3
Gloix's stone goes wide, and the creature simply hisses—is it your imagination, or does it sound somehow sarcastic?—in response.
[Zaius and Xavier are up]
Still smarting from the creature’s bite, Zaius tries to return the favor, slashing down on the beast with his scimitar. “Stay back, sir!” he calls out to Mirt “let us handle this”
Attack: 22 Damage: 5 slashing damage on #1
