Gneuman yells, "If Chadwick and Hoid get out of the hallway, Gaius and I have the means to clear the orcs and allow us all to enter the room!" "But, we risk injuring you, as long as you stay where you are!"
The Gnome then turns to Ajax, "Use Fist of Unbroken Air?"
Gneuman nods at the dragon and targets Orc 21, using Fist of Unbroken Air. (Using the standard 2 Ki points and 1 additional Ki point to push said orc 20 feet back, into orc 12 and down the hallway. (hopefully)
Gneuman targets Orc21 with Fist of Unbroken Air. Orc21 takes 20 bludgeoning damage unless it makes a DC12 STR save = 24. It saves, taking half damage. The orc collapses to the ground.
The ceiling is too low to jump. Move only, please.
Hoid moves over beside the left chest in approach to Alamnal. Moving beside it brings the chest to life! Suddenly it is full of eyes and teeth as it lashes out at Hoid, to hit = 14. Missing. The good news is that appears to have been damaged by Starker's fireball.
"I'm coming for you, Ravenshield," Alamnal growls.
Chadwick to act ((someone needs to do this for him ))
Chadwick moves up and throws two hand axes at Alamnal, to hit = 8 (nat 1) and 16. Both miss.
The second chest springs to life as well. Another mimic! TWO! TWO mimics, ah...ah...ah..... It attacks Hoid with Advantage, to hit = 22, for 4 bludgeoning damage. Become 1 damage, plus 6 acid damage for a total of 7 damage. Hoid is now Grappled by the mimic. DC13 save to break grapple made at Disadvantage on your turn. This mimic looks to have suffered more from the Fireball than the first one.
Starker moves to get a view of the room, and casts Toll the Dead on the new mimic, DC15 WIS save = 10, failed. It takes 12 necrotic damage. Starker then retreats back to his corner. ((Intended to cast Mind Sliver on Alamnal, but out of range.))
(( Moved Kragen back to a 25' move. Also you cannot move diagonally if the corner is solid. ))
The mimic makes a DC13 WIS save = 10, fails. It takes 13 Necrotic damage.
The mimic chest attacks Hoid with Advantage, to hit = 21. Hoid takes 9 bludgeoning (reduced to 6) plus 3 acid damage for a total of 9 damage. He is now Grappled by both mimics.
Gaius does not have a clear view of any targets and readies a spell.
Alamnal looks to say a quick prayer and closes in on Hoid and attacks. Two attacks with his short sword = 13 and 16,13 due to Advantage from Studied Attacks, both miss. He casts Toll the Dead on Hoid. DC16 WIS save =17, no effect. Scimitar attack to hit = 13. Miss. He then uses Action Surge to press the attack on Hoid. Short sword, to hit = (17,17), (13,24) and 21. Two hit for 10 and 10 piercing damage (not reduced) and 4 fire damage as flames engulf the blade upon hitting you. Scimitar attack to hit = 28, for 6 (reduced to 3) slashing damage. Total damage = 27. He uses a Bonus Action for Second Wind to regain 15 HP. Hoid AOO on Alamnal at Disadvantage to hit = 21. Alamnal reacts by casting Shield increasing his AC by +5 causing Hoid's attack to miss Alamnal. Muttering under his breath, the drow retreats to the cave tunnel.
(( For those of you keeping score, the probability of Alamnal missing with his first three attacks, the second with Advantage AND Hoid succeeding at a DC16 WIS save is 1.14%. ))
Trolkarl then moves around the corner of the passage. Orc12 uses an AOO to attack Trolkarl, to hit = 18. Missing.
Hoid to act
Who does Gneuman follow in initiative order?
Looks like Trolkarl. Oops.

Hoid to act.
(Spent a couple hours at the winery down the road.)
Move 5’ to engage orc.
Attack 1: 27 to hit (natural 20), 20 damage (rerolled 1 and 2 as 2 and 4).
I suspect that was enough to dispatch the orc. If not, second attack 17 to hit, 10 damage (rerolled 1 as 3).
If dead, move 30’ (including 15’ of jump) to indicated position just outside scary purple circle.
Orc12 is killed with Hoid's telling blow.
The ceiling is too low to jump. Move only, please.

Chadwick to act ((someone needs to do this for him ))
Can Hoid’s second attack be applied to the mimic?
Hoid responds to the mimic's attack with his great sword, to hit = 17 for 10 slashing damage.
Chadwick to act (crowd sourced)
I propose Chadwick moves forward 30’ (square SW of Hoid) and throws two handaxes at Alamnal if he can do so. Otherwise just move forward 30’.

Garrent enters the chamber.
Kragen to act.
Kragen hustles down the corridor and into the room. Seeing Chadwick accosted by the Chest, calls on Tyr's divine powers.
Toll the Dead Mimic in front of Chadwick 9+4=13 necrotic damage

Trolkarl to act.
Tactical shift is a 2024 rule.
Amended. We need to get switched over to 2024 rules. I cannot keep all of these differences straight.
Trolkarl to act.
Missed this the first read through, but studied attacks is also 2024. I don’t think that mattered.
