Tryn, too, follows Rayce's call and moves over to the cauldron. He takes a few clothes out from his pack and wraps them around his hand, so that the hot metal won't burn his skin. Then, he's ready to push when instructed as he doesn't see much from behind the large pot.

Sorry, I'm beginning to enter a vacation period and while I will try to check-in at least daily, I cannot promise that I will always be able to do so. From September 1, I should be back to normal.
Tharanau you can be positioned between 2 cauldrons. That would stand you within 30feet of one of them and 45feet within the other.
As the one ghould is climbing the stairs. Goraseth tilts the cauldron that is heated enough this round. You tilt the cauldron and spill the oil, but the ghoul slips only a little and he keep his footing, while getting his legs burned however there comes the empty cauldron that is falling from the stairs and hits him along the way down. Ghould launches himself forward with claws to attack Goraseth but does not manage to harm him.
2 of the zombies are now climbing right staircase that will be heated in next round (so at your turns it will be ready to tilt). Tharanau beeing between two cauldrons can see and hear that tunnel cauldron was flipped by incoming ghoul and oil (not yet heated enough to deal fire damage, but enough to be slippery) is spilled accros the little room where tunnel is dug
/Progo can use two rounds(as he did not acted yet)/
OOC: are we back in intiative track ? How many ghouls did we slained already... this seems like a Ghoul Factory...neverending waves of undead :D
Goraseth grabs his weapon and tries to slay the undead creature before it can hurt anybody. "Hey we should retreat outside if their numbers grows Remember we have use quite a lot of ressources already."
You pierce the ghoul quite deep while he rushes on you and rapture the wound terribly when taking out your weapon. But this one proves to be one hefty Ghoul and still stands.
Rayce uses her action to cast create bonfire in front of the cauldron in front of her so that the ghouls take the damage if they want to go through and sets the oil on fire if we manage to tip the oil over (Dex saving throw DC 14). She takes her dagger out so she has both sword and dagger in hand.
Rolled 2 and 4 damage if they fail.
"Block the way through!" she shouts to Tryn"and lets try to tip this thing".
Tryn helps Rayce to tilt the cauldron of hot oil. "I'm at it, Rayce! On your count!"

Tharanau goes 15ft closer towards the cauldron at the tunnel exit (should be 30ft away from the first ghoul now and 45 ft from Rayce and Tryn).
He targets the most healthy looking ghouls with a witch bolt and seems to miss, but bends the magic to his will and the arc of electricity finds its target (rolled Nat 1 to hit, used to sorc points to do seeking spell and rolled 20 to hit - for 10 lightning damage).
"Watch out, we're being attacked from three sides!"
(if less than 60 minutes have passed, then Tharanau still has false life and a total of 35HP)
Ok the ghouls move forward. there is a lot of them so i will just try and briefly write about what you can currently see. In front of Goraseth and Progo one hulky looking Ghoul is climbing the stairs bravely in your direction. Two other follow but slip and are now tumbling at the bottom of the stairs. Two other ghouls are climbing in front of Rayce and Tryncaryn. First one getting burned by Rayce fire and tries to tilt the cauldron but fails to do so. (rolled 3) One that Tharanau jolts with electricity does slip and is currently crawling.
/Tharanau if i remember correctly you casted it before entering the dungeon right? if that so i would say it does still last at least to the end of that fight/

(For reference, Tryn readied the help action for Rayce to tilt the cauldron, so she should get advantage on her roll.)

Rayce rolls 13 on strength with advantage to tip the cauldron. If it works she hopes the oil will catch fire. She will advance one square to block the ghoul's path with both weapons in hand.
She keeps concentration on the bonfire so the ghoul on the other side should take 1+2 wrath =3 damage (forgot the +2 damage last round), dex save dc14)
If the cauldron does not tip she will grit her teeth and try again next round and ask Tryn to keep helping.
Tharanau you are 45 feet from first slit in the floor. (i will post map, you can still decide to move as long as turn of heroes last.
Rayce you tilt cauldron succesfully, Oil flows down, and empty cauldron follows with ringing bangs down the stairs. First ghoul gets on all fur and maintain his footing, being burned by hot oil in the process, his low stance allows him to also evade bouncing cauldron. Second Ghoul also stands strong being burned by hot oil and he gets banged in the head by a cauldron with a loud gong sound.
/Bonfire was a little sploshed and went silent for a couple of seconds by sheer volume of oil being poured, but if you maintain your concentration on bonfire it will set oil on fire on next round./ /It is ok that you did not mention 2 genies wrath damage last round since it should only be applied when you make attack roll, not when you force saving throws./

Tryn steps forward and bangs his quarterstaff over the first ghouls head, followed by a kick to its torso.
qs: 24 to hit for 5 damage Kick: 18 to hit for 6 damage

Progo will move towards the escape rope he will sheath his rapier and start to draw his bow. He turns back towards Goraseth and preps for anything that comes at him (action Dodge).
Tharanau realises that he is too far away if they had to make a quick escape. He walks to the edge of the room without loosing the link that connects him to his enemy. Are there any more ghouls incoming through the tunnel? (Rolled perception 9)
Tryncaryn you destroyed that ghoul, still have 25 movement if you want to use it.
After kicking the ghoul downstairs, Tryn remains in place to guard to top of the stairs against approaching ghouls from down but worries if someone else might need his help more. The fire and the oil should be quite an obstacle, while other ways might be more open. He calls out, "How's everyone doing? You need me to go somewhere else? So far these stairs are under control."

Progo helps with eliminating the Ghoul.

Tharanau sends more electricity along the established arc towards the crawling ghoul, this time only doing little damage (4dmg).
He then looks around the room to establish how long it would take to escape (how far is Tharanau from the murder holes?)
