If I may, Garavon and Gaelyn rarely ever post, so this combat might be really, really slow.

Look at it! Beauty! A spoiler!
Look what you've done, spoiling it for you and everyone who can see this screen. You're a disgrace, you know that, right? You have nothing to be ashamed of but yourself, you moster!
But to be completely fair, every monster has a cute side, like have you seen people draw goblins? Goblins look so cool! You're fine, you may seem like a monster, but I bet you're cute on the inside!
{Would it be alright if I posted my action while we wait for Garavon or should I wait? I was going to ask last night but I must not have sent it... and I apologize for that.}
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
{DM Note: Lets move things along. I’ll act for Garavon}
Events happening on Initiative 12 to 3…
Garavon joins Vicky in holding Doru down, grabbing for his flailing limbs.
Garavon’s Athletics: 11
Doru’s Acrobatics: 11
Donavich sees the adventurers attempting to restrain his son. He pulls out a sunburst holy symbol from within his robes and intones, “Almighty Morninglord, help these adventurers reach my son. Bless them with your might!” A brief flash of light imbues Vicky, Garavon, and Veronica with divine might. (He casts bless on those 3 characters, you roll an additional 1d4 for attack rolls and saving throws. I’ll houserule this also applies to Athletics chekcs when trying to restrain Doru.)
Ismark moves up to the opening next to his sister, weapons drawn, ready to stab any enemies emerging from the hole.
Skanon will pull out his grimoire and quickly flip through the pages before making his way towards the trapdoor. If there is room, he will join the rest of the party down there and attempt to cast Blindness/Deafness on Doru. If there isn't any room for him down there then he will move behind Ismark.
In the darkness, Veronica saw Doru's maddened eyes begin to cloud over with a magical influence, but the vampire spawn shakes it off and demanded of her, “Sister! Help me tear them apart and we’ll feast! I can smell their blood!”
Veronica swallows nervously as the undead calls her 'sister' and implores her to feed the hunger.
"Doru... we're all here to help you," she exclaims, then she attempts to reason with the vampire spawn and appeal to his self-interest. "If we were to kill these people, including your own father, that would only give us one feast and soon we would hunger again. Vicky already said she would willingly feed you with her own blood if you are willing to work with us! And I am sure that others here are similarly generous!"
Persuasion: 13
Veronica readies her action to attack with a punch if Doru attacks again in spite of her attempt to reason with him. If the attack hits she will also spend a ki point to use Stunning Strike (DC 13 Con save)
{DM Note: My mistake, Stunning Strike is a level 5 monk feature, since we are only level 3, Veronica may want to spend that ki point somewhere else. In the meantime...}
{DM Note: Forgot about Doru's disadvantage from being prone. Veronica has advantage from attacking a prone Doru, but it is cancelled out by being in the same space and squeezed.}
And I posted before I saw that the DM actually caught that as well. I think I'll actually use that ki point to take the disengage action and climb up the wall and over him before dropping to the floor next to Garavon in order to get out of the space that Veronica and Doru are both squeezed into and have the freedom to strike without disadvantage.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Those nearby see the wounds inflicted on Doru by Veronica heal themselves (A vampire spawn has the Regeneration creature ability). Doru latched onto Vicky instead of slicing into her with his claws (Doru grapples back using one of his creature actions it costs 1 action and a DC 13 Athletics or Acrobatics to break free of Doru). "Fresh Blood!" He declared as he sank his teeth into Vicky (Doru has multiattack and attacks twice a turn. As long as Doru has a target grappled, he can keep biting them once per turn).
Doru's bite attack at disadvantage from being prone: 9
{DM Note: First Disadvantage didn't roll properly, taking the second one.}
Vicky and Doru are still grappling each other, but as Doru comes in to bite Vicky, she readjusted her grip and Doru's fangs find only thin air (Doru's bite attack misses Vicky's 16 AC).
{DM Note: Awaiting Vicky's turn}

Hope I've made your day!
I'll wait 24hours since the last update during combat before moving things along.
{Would it be alright if I posted my action while we wait for Garavon or should I wait? I was going to ask last night but I must not have sent it... and I apologize for that.}
Sure! It is perfectly fine to post out of turn. I'll simply interpret your intentions in good faith like what happened with Vicky's grapple attempt.

Garavon fails to get a grip on Doru's flailing limbs.
{DM Note: On to Skanon's turn and the next round of combat.}
Skanon will pull out his grimoire and quickly flip through the pages before making his way towards the trapdoor. If there is room, he will join the rest of the party down there and attempt to cast Blindness/Deafness on Doru. If there isn't any room for him down there then he will move behind Ismark.
Skanon descended into the ground and cast blindness/deafness on Doru.
Doru's CON save: 14
Skanon's spell save DC is 14
In the darkness, Veronica saw Doru's maddened eyes begin to cloud over with a magical influence, but the vampire spawn shakes it off and demanded of her, “Sister! Help me tear them apart and we’ll feast! I can smell their blood!”
{DM Note: It is Veronica’s turn}
If you're wondering how is Doru and Veronica sharing a space, I am applying squeezing rules in this case.
Veronica swallows nervously as the undead calls her 'sister' and implores her to feed the hunger.
"Doru... we're all here to help you," she exclaims, then she attempts to reason with the vampire spawn and appeal to his self-interest. "If we were to kill these people, including your own father, that would only give us one feast and soon we would hunger again. Vicky already said she would willingly feed you with her own blood if you are willing to work with us! And I am sure that others here are similarly generous!"
Persuasion: 13
Veronica readies her action to attack with a punch if Doru attacks again in spite of her attempt to reason with him. If the attack hits she will also spend a ki point to use Stunning Strike (DC 13 Con save)
Attack: 13 + 4 (from bless) = 17. Damage: 8 (magical bludgeoning)
Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
Provide feedback!
Ireena remains at the entrance.
Doru makes a wisdom save against his hunger.
DC 29 (Went down from repeated attempt) - 13 (Veronica's Persuasion) = 16
Doru's Wisdom save: 10
Doru reached out toward Vicky who's pinning him with his hands. You noticed his nails were sharp as claws.
Veronica's readied attack triggers, stunning strike hits.
Doru's CON save against stunning strike: 6
{DM Note: My mistake, Stunning Strike is a level 5 monk feature, since we are only level 3, Veronica may want to spend that ki point somewhere else. In the meantime...}
Doru's claw attack against Vicky: 23
{DM Note: Forgot about Doru's disadvantage from being prone. Veronica has advantage from attacking a prone Doru, but it is cancelled out by being in the same space and squeezed.}
Doru's disadvantage on attack: 21
Wait a sec... I just realized Stunning Strike only comes online at level 5. Ooops (I don't play a lot of monks).
Would it work to instead use that ki point on Flurry of Blows to make two more unarmed attacks (doing non-lethal damage)?
