It’s the Top of the 10th and there are two Monks left valiantly fighting to the death. The question is can they be killed in one round - I reckon not but am happy to be proven wrong. The initiative order is as follows: Grin, SSM #11 facing Grin, Gotrek & Tibold, Thromkor, SSM #9 facing Thromkor, Ostara
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Grin will give the monk a bloody tooth'd smile before spitting some blood on to the floor, looking the enemy up and down.. looking for weaknesses before striking hard with his rapier. Attack: 18 Damage: 10 plus sneak attack if my insite roll works *see below* 10 Insitgh roll 13
Insightful Fighting
As a bonus action, you can make an Insight check against a creature you can see that isn’t incapacitated, contested by the target’s Deception check. If you succeed, you can use your Sneak Attack against that target even if you don’t have advantage on the attack roll, but not if you have disadvantage on it for 1 minute or until you use this feature against a different target.

Battle of the Entrance Hall 1) As a result of his study of SSM #11's fighting style, Grin is able to detect (can't beat your roll) when it is likely to leave itself most open to attack and strike deeply with his rapier at the time which he does by driving the rapier deep into the the Monk's side piercing a lung. 2) The Monk groans as Grin's Rapier is driven deep into its side and frothy blood appears around its mouth but it manages to launch a flurry of blows back at Grin - First Attack: 16 Damage: 8 & Second Attack: 5 Damage: 3 3) Gotrek and Tibold you're up!

Gotrek admires his throw of the javelin before picking up his Axe and entering the room. Seeing two quite injured people and one monk he charges the monk as that is the confirmed enemy where as the others are unknown. He moves to Z0 and wildly swinging his Great-axe, laughing as he does so.
Attack: 25 Damage: 9
He then follows up with a good hard kick to the groin
Battle of the Entrance Hall & Scriptorium 1) The SSM manages to grab the handle of Gotrek's Great Axe and deflect his strike into the ground , however he is unable to avoid Gotrek's lightning fast kick into his groin which obviously ruptures something deep inside the monk's chest that had already been damaged by Grin's Rapier thrust as with a spray of aerated blood which adds to that already coating the Dwarf, the monks collapses to the ground. 2) Tibold and Thromkor - you're up in the Scriptorium.
"That was some good luck for you there. You holy rock nuns haven't had much of that as of late, what with your comrades dead and you soon to follow. But that's for the best. The smell in here will be better with you lot gone." Tibold grins as disarmingly at the monk as he can.

Thromkor lifts his ebony staff into the air with both hands and speaks a few words in Draconic. The staff's orb flashes and a frigid beam of blue-white light streaks toward the last monk.
Ray of Frost attack: 18; damage: 1 cold damage and its speed is reduced by 10 feet until the start of Thromkor's next turn
Battle of the Scriptorium 1) SSM #9's saving throw (DC 15 16) against Tibold's latest contribution. 2) Realising that Tibold is full of nothing more than hot air, the Monk ignores his latest comment as he with some difficulty dodges out of the way of Thromkor's Ray of Frost and launches a hopefully more successful series of blows against Thromkor - First (Attack: 12 Damage: 5) & Second (Attack: 24 Damage: 11) with the final kick to Thromkor's head sufficient (just) to drop him to the ground unconscious.
As Gotrek calms down from his rage, he remembers that he ran out of the room when Thromkor was still engaged with a monk, and that he might be having trouble. So he looks up at the hairy beastman standing in front of him and grins. "Would love to stay and chat, but gotta help out a mate." and with that he yanks his javelin out of the monk at his feet and turns and runds from the room, Axe in one hand javelin in the other.
As Gotrek moves to C2 he spots Thromkor prone on the ground, whether he is dead or just unconscious, he has no clue but he can do something about the monk standing over Thromkor's prone body. Dropping his Axe to the ground, Gotrek lines up his javelin and throws it at SSM#9.

OOC: Hey, Grant, I know this won't keep me from getting knocked out, but can I use Thromkor's Favored by the Gods trait to roll 2d4 and add it to the total, possibly having him hit the monk with his ray of frost. Just for the fun of it? I'll go ahead and roll in case you're cool with it.

Grin staggers after the hard blow, wiping blood away from the face with the back of his hand once again. Watching the dwarf grab a javelin and leave, The shifter would yell out "Hey wait!?!" before following the dwarf into the other room (If I am able I would attack the monk in there as well if I recognize it as being the same type of monk that I have been fighting.
Rapier Attack: 24 Damage: 7 Dagger Attack: 18 Damage: 1 plus sneak attack damage if either one hits since I am next to allies 9
Grin will smile wide towards half elf as he pulls his rapier out of the monk and a fine red mist coats his furry canine-like face. "I can help teach ya friend! Ya just have to stick with it!" The shifter would say making a jabbing motion with the rapier "Get it! i stuck him in the chest with my rapier?... and if you stick with practicing it will help you stab people..... nevermind" He will say quickly turning back towards the monk.
Battle of the Scriptorium - Bottom of the 9th
1) SSM #9 Saving throws: 1st against Tibold's Vicious Mockery (DC 15 - 6) & 2nd against Thromkor's Frostbite (DC 14 - 11)
2) SSM #9 attacks against Thromkor: First (Attack: 18 Damage: 8) & Second (Attack: 18 Damage: 5)

Ostara strikes with her morning star Attack: 14 Damage: 5
Sometimes a Nat 1 tells a better story than a Nat 20 ever could.

"Well!" Tibold remarks, undaunted by his failure.
"That was some good luck for you there. You holy rock nuns haven't had much of that as of late, what with your comrades dead and you soon to follow. But that's for the best. The smell in here will be better with you lot gone." Tibold grins as disarmingly at the monk as he can.
Vicious Mockery:DC 15 Wisdom save or 3 psychic and effects

Tibold glances behind(?) the monk at Grin and Gotrek.
"You two make me wish I had more practice with a blade," he remarks, turning to Thromkor and attempting to stabilize the dragonborn.
Medicine Check (DC 10, I think): 21
And that's all I have to say about that.
