Nirug stands at near the base of the staircase, seeing as he needed to make it about 10-15 feet to reach the staircase. Nirug is now standing about 20 feet behind the hooded figure.
Additionally, it is now Ash's turn. She had indicated previously that for her next turn she would use the spell cure wounds on Smoke. It does appear that it requires touching a creature, and Smoke is on a ledge. So when Ash is available, roll an Acrobatics check to see if you can make it to where Smoke is to heal them the rolled 5 hit points.
Black Cat and Jorel, you two are next.

The arrow misses the hooded figure yet again, flying directly at the wall in front of him, and falling helplessly at his feet.
Luckily, with your full movement, Black Cat, are able to get safely below the staircase, in a position where the hooded figure would have to dangerously lean over and stop all else.
Jorel is to follow. Then the hooded figure and Spined Devil.

Jorel, hearing his ally going after the boss, will move on the last spined devil (if possible flank it with Aldin) and take a two handed jab with his quarterstaff to the wings and follow it with a kick at its head.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Jorel, as you whack it with your quarterstaff, it descends, and you quickly follow it with a hearty blow to the head from your foot.
The hooded figure turns, seeing Nirug. The figure slams the weak elf monastery worker against the stairs, casting [Tooltip Not Found] at Nirug. "Stay out of my way."
Attack: 14 Damage: 6
The Spined Devil appears hurt, but he keeps it together as he musters the strength to swoop down and attempt to bite Jorel. Attack: 13 Damage: 5
Next is Weylin. Then it will be the top of the round yet again.
(OOC: Forgot about the dodge action that Nirug took, added it now)

As Smoke gets healed he suddenly gasps for air again sitting up in a jolt looking around him. Ahhh.. Thanks Ash, i needed that
Continueing to look at the groups situation Smoke crawls back into squating position seeing the group get hurt bad left and right.
Going for another arrow shot to the devil Attack: 19 Damage: 7
Looking at Ash Im going down to the group Then climbing down to the ground. (since he has climbing speed i assume no check is needed, if you need one let me know).
Weylin, you can successfully come within 30 feet of Nirug and cast healing word, stabilizing him.
Smoke, as your arrow sails through the air, piercing the devil in the back of the head, the devil falls, like the other did, screeching and writhing in pain before very suddenly ceasing to. You have now killed both Spined Devils.
<End of Combat> (OOC: I know the hooded figure is still alive, but since he will not be engaging in combat and will be out of range very soon, the initiative order attacks will end now.)
As you all breathe heavily from the effort, the hooded figure continues to advance upward on the staircase, nearly breaching the second level of the monastery. The hooded figure has grabbed the monastery worker yet again and continues to drag him across the stairs as he did previous to striking Nirug with his spell.

Black Cat will stick his head out from under the stairs and take a quick look around at the situation and then will raise his hand crossbow and take a shot at the monastery worker, will move into range if need be. If I still have movement left I will jump back over the railing to hide again.
Black Cat Attack: Attack: 22 Damage: 8
Advantage if I get it as I am not sure if the monastery worker is expecting an attack: 10
(I can allow sneak attack because the monastery worker definitely wasn't expecting it) The arrow flies through the air and connects with the monastery worker's shoulder, and the elf cries out in pain. But the hooded figure clasps his hand over the monastery worker's mouth, to muffle the noise, and continues to storm upwards on the stairs, despite the obvious pain displayed prominently on the worker's face.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As the devil goes down Smoke will try to spot hooded figure but notices hes gone. Running up to the stairs but still not seeing him.
Realising hes probably got a good lead on them Smoke will turn to the group Is everyone alright?
After seeing everyone is still alive and moving Smoke will check out the devils and part of the bottom floor to see if he can learn something about where the devils might of come from or how they got here (survival check 5)
While he is doing this he will speak in general direction Try to find out what we just walked into
(a game of highs and lows, got distracted while posting this so didnt see last 2 posts)
Smoke, despite your poor survival check, you are able to see a necklace around one of the Spined Devil's neck. Only one of them. It is a necklace on a metal chain that has a small obsidian-looking stone engraved with an ancient golden rune. You can tell it is practically radiating magical energy.

Weylin rushes up the stairs, near the threshold of the second level, you can spot a moving shadow of the hooded figure. But the Elven monastery worker lays on the ground, clearly traumatized from everything that just happened.
The elf tries to manage a smile to signal he's alright. "Welcome to the monastery."

Nirug's eyes snap open after feeling a warmth pass through his body. He's staring at the floor and quickly recalls what happened. Raising to a kneeling position he picks up his axes from the floor and sees Weylin rushing up the steps and rushes up after him as well.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Aldin breathes in heavily and nods, being glad all his friends made it through the brief yet brutal battle. He keeps his crossbow at the ready but moves to join Smoke. He places his hand gently on his long time friends shoulder as the Tabaxi pull the amulet off one body but his attention is on the spines.
Kneeling Aldin examines if he can pull the spines from the body.
Smoke will take the necklace off of the Devil. Then looks at Aldin, Another close call my friend
Looking at the necklace noticing its magical Smoke will shout out, at the risk of never seeing it again Black Cat, come look at this. What is this? Knowing Black Cat has the most knowledge of arcane items in the group. Smoke will hand the item to Black Cat if he comes for it.
He looks at Aldin again checking out the body with a questioning face You think we can sell parts of these things? As it wouldnt be the first time they sold a severed head as a throphy to someone wanting to decorate a room with it.

Black Cat heavily injured from the hooded figure will take another pot shot at him and then hopefully move under the stairs where he cant be targeted.
Hand Crossbow: Attack: 12 Damage: 7

“Try not to die again, I’m out of spells!” Ash shouts at Smoke as she pulls out her shortbow and readies a shot
If he can reach Nirug, he will move to him and cast cure wounds, otherwise he will cast healing word on him and move towards the spined devil.
Healing: 9 (if cure wounds) or 5 (if healing word)
Weylin, you can successfully come within 30 feet of Nirug and cast healing word, stabilizing him.
