Zoveldra and Mome see that the necromancer is not impressed by LANDMOP's gambit. She turns to her shorter, more rotund compatriot, "You see? I told you stealing that last one was going too far! Now we've got to deal with this lot before we head back down." The man looks sheepish but still has a wolf's grin, the woman continues, "Very well. Imrin. Ramor." She addresses the two men, "Do your worst." The fat man nearly breaks out in a fit of giggles, while the red haired man in the corner pulls his mace and fancy dagger silently. The woman throws her hands at you and the ghouls run forward, gnashing with their teeth and clawing the air. Initiative:
Group 1: LANDMOP. Mome
Group 2: All bad guys
Group 3: Zoveldra
LANDMOP and Mome are up. The necromancer and Imrin stand to the back of the cavern, looking as though they're getting ready to cast some spells, while the two Ghouls run at you all. Ramor is stepping forward slowly yet with a quiet confidence.
Mome casts Silence in between the Necromancer and giggly man.
She uses her War Priest training to take another action. She steps forward 10’ to attack with her scimitar the charging ghoul on her left. (attack 11, damage 4)
LANDMOP’s Bolt hits the Necromancer, while Mome’s Silence goes up. Her attack misses the Ghoul however. The two ghouls try to bite at LANDMOP and Mome as Rohan sneaks in to stab at Zoveldra. The two spellcasters fan out to either side, Imrin let’s out a Necrotic Blast while the Necromancer tries to Hold Person Mome as well as manifesting a Spiritual Weapon in the form of a knife to stab at Zoveldra.
Ghoul 1 Bite against LANDMOP Attack: 11 Damage: 8 Piercing and 5 Necrotic
Ghoul 2 Bite against Mome Attack: 18 Damage: 5 Piercing and 3 Necrotic
Rohan Dagger against Zoveldra Attack: 14 Damage: 4 Piercing
Imrin Necrotic Blast against LANDMOP Attack: 17 Damage: 7 Necrotic
Mome makes a DC 12 WIS Save or becomes Paralyzed: 13
Spiritual Weapon against Zoveldra Attack: 22 Damage: 3 Force
You all are up. The enemies are pressing the attack (map incoming.)
The Necromancer swears as Mome shakes off the Paralyses. Imrin laughs at her, “Tougher than you thought perhaps Shilek? No matter, we’ll finish them off!”
Zoveldra dodges the knife but is grazed by the spiritual weapon. She speeds past Rohan and the ghouls, attempting to grapple the necromancer and drag her into the silence spell's area of effect.
Bonus Action: Focused Step of the Wind (you can expend 1 Focus Point to take both the Disengage and Dash actions as a Bonus Action, and your jump distance is doubled for the turn.)
Action: attempt grapple, strength or dex DC 15 (Necromancer chooses which). If successful, will use however much movement she has left to drag necrotic towards silenced area.
Annoyed that her spell silenced no one, Mome yells, “Get off me,” at the ghoul that injured her. She also takes two swipes at it with her scimitar (attack 7) (attack 23, damage 4). (Ooc the second attack was the 2 of 4 War Priest actions)
(Just a reminder that Ranged attacks are rolled at Disadvantage if a hostile creature is in melee with you. Also, I might start prompting Concentration checks, they can be hard to remember.)
Imrin immediately looks close to collapse from LANDMOP's attack, while the two Ghoul's and Rohan look relatively unharmed still. Zoveldra successfully Grapples Shilek and drags her back into the Silence. One Ghoul attacks Mome, while the other and Rohan gang up on LANDMOP, Rohan is used to working in conjunction with others so get's Advantage on the attack. Shilek silently screams as she moves her Spiritual Weapon to attack Mome as well, she then pulls a black knife from her cloak and tries to stab at Zoveldra. Imrin casts Healing Word on himself, then throws a Necrotic Bolt at Zoveldra:
Ghoul 1 Bite against Mome Attack: 6 Damage: 6 Piercing plus 6 Neccrotic
Ghoul 2 Bite against LANDMOP Attack: 16 Damage: 7 Piercing plus 6 Neccrotic
Rohan Dagger against LANDMOP Attack: 24 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll. PIercing
Shilek Pact Blade against Zoveldra Attack: 16 Damage: 3 Slashing plus 3 Necrotic
Spiritual Weapon against Mome Attack: 20 Damage: 4 Force
Imrin Necrotic Bolt against Zoveldra Attack: 24 Damage: 7 Necrotic
Then heals himself for 5 HP
You all are up, Imrin's looking better while the Ghouls and Rohan gang up on LANDMOP and Mome. Zoveldra has Shilek grappled in the Silence. (Roll for Concentration checks if you need to.)
Zoveldra deflects the physical damage from Shilek's pact blade at the last moment. She manages to avoid Imrin's spell too. She rains punches on Shilek with her free hand.
Reaction: Deflect Damage, 13.
Action: Unarmed Strike to hit nat 1, inspiration used for 20, damage 7
Bonus Action: Flurry of Blows first attack to hit nat 1 + 7=8. Second attack to hit 21, damage 7.
Zo will then drag her as far away from the melee enemies as she can. (She has 40 ft of movement, so can drag her 20 ft.)
((Actually, deflect attacks says this: When an attack roll hits you and its damage includes Bludgeoning, Piercing, or Slashing damage, you can take a Reaction to reduce the attack’s total damage against you. Does that mean she can deflect the necrotic damage too since it's part of the same attack roll?))
(I certainly think that's how it reads. So go ahead and reduce the damage even more.) Shilek is looking a little worse for wear as Zoveldra beats her to a pulp, she tries to scream out but is still stuck in the far edge of the silence. Mome is down andI believe LANDMOP is still up, surrounded by enemies.
Zoveldra tries to stay calm and watch the necromancer's reaction.

This is at 10ft scale btw. It functions similarly to 5ft squares, a little guide here: https://olddungeonmaster.com/2020/03/19/dd-5e-playing-on-a-1-square10-grid/

LANDMOP uses a bonus action to deal 6 more lightning damage to the necromancer.
They then turn and cast Chill Touch against Imrin, seeing him as the largest secondary threat
(Rolling in game chat, can't get the roll button to work here)
Feel free to post the results here.

If anyone goes down Imrin will laugh, "Try to take them alive! The Orcs want spellcasters now apparently."
Mome goes down when the ghoul bites her.
First death save 11 (yay!)
