D.O.R.K's eye sockets spark a few times before a faint, yellow glow of her headlights turn on. Yet well before she can move to even begin fully assessing her situation, Vark comes tearing around the corner, and is at Beedo's size, slashing at the joints between plates of the closest Orog twice over with his flaming scimitar! Seeing D.O.R.K stirring after the fact, he tries to shift so that Heartbreaker(picked up before entering), is more visible on his back for her to try and grab at a moment's notice.
Action: Scorcher(Custom Scimitar) at Orog immediate northwest(southwest of the grouped four) to Beedo with Extra Attack!. Attack: 24 Damage: 9 of slashing. Attack: 20 Damage: 6of slashing.
(@Grant: Forgot the +2 Attacker feature bonus, but either way, Scorcher breaks due to its flaw when it comes to crits. If you still need a fumble roll then.. *sniffle*.. so be it. But if you be a kindly so, can he it have gotten off that second attack since it has a built in punishment? If not, see spoilers for result)
Fumble Roll(Just in case): 9. Subsequent Dex Check or fall prone(DC 15): 12.

Spotting the Orog that Beedo is distracting, Torunn takes his musket off his shoulder, watches for a moment and carefully takes a shot.
Attack: 25 Damage: 7
Then holding onto his holy symbol in his fist, face full of anger, he swings his arm and a spectral forge hammer crashes into the same orog, with the sound of hammers beating anvils ringing through the cave.

"Ain't so easy now iz it face'n us all face ta face! But no worries, ya mingers. An acolyte of 'er Lady-ness will speed ya on yer way to an end!"Beedo proclaimed proudly, putting his natural distracting talkativeness to work in hiding his sizing up an Orog. Then as suddenly as a cobra lashing out, he struck again, partially climbing up at least one Orog just to claw at a throat. Whether blood is drawn or not, the goblin barks out another helpful spotter's call to strike another weak point.
Movement(if need be): If two closest Orog's have fallen, northward over the fallen to get in melee with the rest.
Action: Owlbear Mitts at Orog(doesn't matter which, just whichever is closest). Attack: 15 Damage: 6 of slashing.
Bonus Action: Using Helpful, granting Torunn advantage on the next attack on the same Orog Beedo attacked.

Ebonitus pushes his way past Vark and Devin in order to call on the assistance of the Earth Mother to revive D.O.R.K. It is is difficult to tell in the flickering yellow light from Devin's stone whether a light flickered on or whether it was merely a trick.
Then there is the sound of bells ringing and Grumpy collapses to the ground with his hands over his ears.
Vark takes this opportunity to leap at Dopey his scimitar aflame. Unfortunately he over extends and almost manages to slip over at the Orog's feet which to say the least would have been extremely embarrassing for as skilled a warrior as Vark considered himself to be. He does however manage to stay on his feet and ram the scimitar into a gap in Dopey's armour; as the Orog collapses to the ground the scimitar - jammed as it is in the Orog's armour - is wrenched from Vark's hand and snaps in half.
Toruun takes an opportunity of the fact that there is only one Orog standing, takes careful aim and fires. Once again their is a cloud of acrid smoke, a flash of fire and a noise that reverberates through the cave. The balls flies true and Ben staggers as he is hit. Then the sound of giant hammers beating on anvils rings out and Ben staggers once again as a spectral hammer smashes into his chest.
Half deafened by giant bells, ringing hammers and blinded by the smoke Beedo is unable to connect with Ben who in response swings his Great Axe not once {Attack: 11 Damage: 15} but twice {Attack: 9 Damage: 11} at the mouthy goblin. However, also partially blinded by the smoke Ben misses.
Then there is a strange whirring sound and the slap of leather and two round objects fly out of the darkness at Ben {Attack: 6 Damage: 6} and {Attack: 13 Damage: 5}
At the same time a flash of red and green light spears out of the darkness (Attack: 24 Damage: 22) aimed at Ben.
In attempting to connect with Ben, Beedo had spun around and now finds himself facing a nightmarish apparition - about 10 feet behind Toruun - equipped with huge slashing claws standing protectively over two smaller orcs with slings in their hands. Just behind the creature, Beedo can make out the head of what looks to be a giant bear.
Despite all the attention, Ben is still standing and yells out something at the apparition that Beedo has spotted.
Ebonitus takes this opportunity to dive into the fray, with his shield at thready, he advances on Ben and swings his mace at the soft fleshy bits that have been uncovered from the removal of his hot armour. "I've had enough of this you fat slug" he calls as he swings the silvery mace that flickers in the half-light:
Attack: 9 Damage: 5 of Bludgeoning damage.
(In the back of his mind he is thinking, what is this creature behind us? But it attacked Ben, so we can sort out whose side it is on later)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Pointing at the last Orog left standing Devin makes the bell toll around Ben. He must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw DC16 or take 21 necrotic damage.
"Let us finish this and get free of this place. The enemy of my enemy may be my friend. Ben first then we shall see."
Who are you and what are your intentions?" Devin calls out to them.
"Kill mate, Kill young, Mother Goddess say not good"the large female - at least you think it female (to my knowledge known of your are familiar with Orc physiology) - Orc grunts in reply. The two youngish Orcs are now srtanding at her feet hanging onto her legs.
************
About now Lukian has managed to shephard the halflings off the tower and down to where Golemogote is slowly demolkishing a tree ripping off branches and stuffing them in hbius mouth. As the halflings approach they take a step backwards as Golemogote lets out a tremendous fart. One of the halflings says to another "what is it and which is the front end" As the waft of elephant digestive gases waft over the halflings, he replies "I think its some sort of dragon or a dinosaur!"

(@All: Wait, that was all the Orogs? Ah snap!)
Seeing in a quick glance back that the other Orcs weren't a threat yet, Vark looked back to the broken half of the scimitar, and just spent a few moments staring at it. It's only once Beedo incidently pushed past to search the bodies of the fallen Orogs, grinning and throwing out the occasional taunts at the corpses, that Vark snaps out of his funk and reasses the situation. "Boss." He stated, as he hurried to check her condition. Though knowing only a little of her make up from talks shared, he eventually resorted to shaking her a few times.
(@Grant:)
I don't know if you'd need a roll for it or not. But, Beedo's goal is to search the Orog's persons namely for any gems or gold he expected they got from the Roper, assuming they found anything. Then try to slip that discretely in his pockets while people are distracted talking with the Orc Mother(?).
"This is our elephant, Golem," Lukian says. Then, after a self-aware pause, "Well, it's something longer than that. Anyway, the end with the big ears and trunk, which is its nose and fifth appendage, is its head. See the eyes? It's really quite calm when not in danger. We'll just wait here for the others to catch up."
Torunn will rush over to DORK, casting cure wounds @ lvl 3 to bring her back to health and mending, to remove any major dents or scratches on her body, muttering to himself in dwarvish as he fusses over her. He pays no mind to the new oncomers, to busy with his task.
Ebonitus says to the large female Orc, "Is there anything we can do to help you? There are more of his kind that will probably return soon and we should be moving along rapidly before they return."

"These ones killed your mate and your young? How did this come about, and is the one who leads them, he was not ordinary orc? Are there more about? We need to leave these caves. Will you let us pass?" Devin responds.
How did this come about, and is the one who leads them, he was not ordinary orc? Devin asks
"Leader is creature from the Pit. Not now why or how but sometimes born in tribe. If I see in time I kill but not here then!" At Devin's next question "We need to leave these caves. Will you let us pass?" she looks at the Party and seeing they are all wearing holy symbols of some sort of another she asks"your goddesses say ok to leave creature from the Pit alive. Ok to run away? Me not not think much of your goddesses!"
"We need a safe place to rest before they return. We saw them leave earlier but did not who they are. I have no problem helping destroy such evil, but we need rest first to tend to our injured first. Is there a safe place nearby?" Devin answers.
Vark backs away once Torunn began to work his magic, but stayed hovering close by; marveling at the various magics worked to undo the magic. At one point he looked to his own hands, and with brows furrowed at some unspoken thought.
Beedo, meanwhie, had chuckled at hearing the dressing down the Orc delivered, and enjoyed every second of it. But searching the bodies took priority, so he hadn't bothered chiming in for once. Upon being satisfied that nothing remained on the Orog's person, he moved on to explore the rest of the chamber, determined to quietly pick up anything shiny or valuable either laying around or poorly hidden within it.
As for D.O.R.K, the faint glow of her eyes gradually return with Torunn's supplementary administrations. "You mean it was made to kill?" She said softly, the wood fibers in her neck finally having finished knitting back together. "There is nothing to be envious of. Mother wanted me this way, and so I must be... Knight to 7-C... Well aren'cha a bossy one! No wonder ya gotta pay for it. Hah! They do not listen mother -- Why am I ch-ch-ch-cheese now?Now I'm the definition of an uppercut~ Never gonna give a ****~ I carved the world into something you can never touch~ I'm a season of pain-..."On and on she rambled for a solid minute, her tone shifting between each break in a sentence or following a song, and eyes flickering through various shades of color.
As a worried Vark looks to Torunn, D.O.R.K panned her head around as she adds, "The moment you stop accepting challenges is the moment your life en-en-en-ends." Her last words before the eyes blink out, becoming a light green that Torunn would recognize as her entering full rebooting state. Just how long that would take however... is a guess even for him.

Again bells ring out and {10} and Ben claps his hands to his ears and collapses to the ground.
