In the night you hear a howling wind. Twig sees dark figures move towards the room where the others are sleeping. You hear the sounds of blades being drawn from their sheathes. Soon they will see you unless Twig hides
inside the room Roland hears the sounds of soft footsteps approach the door.
While her first instinct is to hide, she doesn't want the bird person and the nice man to die. Smiling, Twig yells at the figures, "Only cowards attack sleeping prey! If you want to be more of a coward come attack this helpless little girl instead! Catch me if you can!" Hoping that woke up the others, the young half-elf dashes down a corridor as fast as she can keeping an eye out for a good place to squeeze into and hide.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Cautious yet quickly, Roland crept toward the door, whispering as he cast a spell to create an item in his hand. A small leather strip with spikes, folded in his palm appeared, and the farmboy knelt to slide the makeshift caltrop strip under the door toward the approaching footsteps. His left hand gripped his shield tightly as he drew his sword with his right, then he stepped back and waited.
Roland's trying to be discrete in his movements, so a Stealth Check might be warranted: 5
At the sound of the girl yelling, Zhernon half sat up and listened for the footsteps outside the door, and watched the other standing near the door, getting something ready. Zhernong quietly pulled his bow around and gently notched an arrow, then laid back down on the ground with the arrow pointed towards the door.
3 of them peel off running after Twig. Luckily she was able to hide underneath the stairs among the barrels and netting.The 3 are still nearby as she hears them moving about looking to into every nook and cranny "Come out little girl and your end will be less painful"
The door opens and Roland hears a yelp as 1 of the attackers steps on the caltrop. The others push him out of the way and menacingly approach Roland. One sailor licks his lips and says "Fresh Meat"
Zhernon will discreetly put his bow down and pull his short swords out instead and wait for the sailors to either attack Roland or get close enough to make a surprise strike against them.
He scoffed. "Indeed? How about we show you just how lively we are?"
He rushed in toward the first, parrying with his shield before bringing his longsword down in a deadly arc.
MOVE: Directly toward the closest sailor ACTION: Attack the first sailor, using Blind Fighting Style to counter any dim lighting * Longsword Slash - Attack: 11, Mundane Slashing Damage: 10 REACTION: Take any Opportunity Attack presented
Currently: AC 18 and 1 used spell slot (but I presume we've had a short rest during dinner; let me know if that's not the case)
Twig will pull out a bag of ball bearings and dump them onto the floor allowing them to roll towards the sailors. (If they move across them, they much make a Dex save of 10 or fall prone.) Once done, she will shout, "Well it looks like we found the biggest cowards!"Once done, she will use cunning action to dash past them without giving them an attack of opportunity, and make her way back towards where the others are.
Initiative: 5
(Not sure if that first action was in initiative order or if i get another action. Let me know if i need to make another action.)
(( Roland would have offered to take the first watch. Perception Check: 22 ))

(Are they holding any lanterns or torches?)
(No lanterns or torches as they were planing to kill you in your sleep)
(Zhernon has both darkvision and blindsight btw)
(( I assume they're visibly armed? ))

(Yes their swords are out intent on harming you)
Roland glared down the sailors as they opened the door, letting their drawn weapons decide his course of action.
He scoffed. "Indeed? How about we show you just how lively we are?"
He rushed in toward the first, parrying with his shield before bringing his longsword down in a deadly arc.
