(Assuming that, since the orcs moved to attack, they are all within 30 feet now. they were 40 feet, but had to move 15 to attack the furthest away person from Lia, so that should mean that the leader is 25 feet from Lia.)
No, Lia was on a rooftop 10ft to Helena’s right. I made a mistake with the distances. Before moving, the chief and his enforcers were about 45ft away from Helena and Lia. Now the chief is 30ft away by Kronk’s body, and his enforcers are by Harq about 25ft away.
OCC Why does Kronk not get to swing at least once?
I believe Relentless Endurance doesn’t take your action. You would be able to make an action but you’re in a really bad position because of how much damage the chief deals. The lowest amount of damage he can do in one hit is 6—12 if his second attack lands.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Brodan will move away to get himself into cover, popping back out to fire another Firebolt at orc he had hit before. Then using Twinned Spell he will shoot another Firebolt at the orc he had seen give orders to the others.

Villagers Before the chief and his enforcers can continue their assault, 3 young men run past Helena, Lia, and Brodan. Two of them attack the enforcers standing over Harq, while the third tends to his wounds with what appears to be a healer’s kit.
The first villager lands his hit, cutting into one of the enforcers and dealing 7 damage. You all hear him cheer for a moment before the enforcer raises his axe.
The second young man attacks the orc, who raises the hilt of his axe to protect himself. The sword’s blade shatters into pieces as the villager looks up in horror.
Chief and Enforcers You all hear the chief roar in fury, which also catches the attention of the enforcers.
The first enforcer attacks the villager in front of him, inspired by his chief. Attack 1: 21 Damage: 9 Attack 2: 22 Damage: 14 The young man is effortlessly cut down, cleaved through by the axe.
The second enforcer continues his swing at the villager before him. Attack: 19 Damage: 11 Attack: 13 Damage: 5 You all hear the sound of the axe cutting through the man’s flesh, ripping through him.
Brodan Two balls of fire form in your hand. You hurl both in rapid succession, and they both hit the chief, dealing a total of 26 damage.
Harq You are at 0 hitpoints, but you are stabilized.
Helena You shoot another arrow at the chief, and you watch it fly straight. You watch as the chief turns his head, sees the arrow, and catches it.
Kronk You swing your club around in a frenzy, hitting the orc chief twice and dealing a total of 25 damage.
Lia As the chief catches Helena’s arrow, he suddenly notices a spell flying in his direction (25). It does hit him, but Lia feels her magic turn against her as some kind of force pushes her inwards from all sides, squeezing her.
Lia wisdom save (DC15): 22
Lia, you hear a sheep sound in your head, but you are able to push it away. You resisted the polymorph effect.
You lift your heavy crossbow and shoot at the orc chief twice, dealing a total of 30 damage.
Villager After making sure that Harq is stable, the villager swings his own sword at one of the enforcers.
Attack: 12 Damage: 3
The enforcer dodges the attack, leaning back just enough, before they retaliate.
Chief and Enforcers The chief attacks Kronk with his greataxe. Chief Attack 1: 17 Damage: 12 + 4 The attack misses, but the chief does not seem to care as he pushes past Kronk and runs to Brodan, who is only 25ft away. He swings at Brodan. Chief Attack: 25 Damage: 13 + 2 Brodan sees the attack coming and raises his staff in a way that prevents the hilt (and with it, the blade) from hurting him.
Enforcer 1 attacks the villager with his greataxe. Attack 1: 16 Damage: 15 Attack 2: 14 Damage: 8 You all hear a scream, which is quickly cut out as the young man is chopped in half.
Enforcer 2 looks down at Harq and, instead of attacking, tries to pick him up.
Since he is stable, I’ll say Harq can make the check with disadvantage. You can pick between acrobatics and athletics, and the DC is 10.
On second thought, your acrobatics modifier alone wins the contest. Harq is able to squirm out of the enforcer’s grip.
So if he is at 0 then Relentless Endurance comes into play? If so at 1 ht pt he can use Second Wind, yes?:

Still 30 feet, so she can still do what I posted above.
Brodan will move away to get himself into cover, popping back out to fire another Firebolt at orc he had hit before. Then using Twinned Spell he will shoot another Firebolt at the orc he had seen give orders to the others.
Firebolt 1: Attack: 24 Damage: 14
Firebolt 2: Attack: 19 Damage: 7

Seeing Kronk go down, Helena shoots an arrow at the chief.
Action: Shortbow Attack - 16 Damage - 9 Sneak Attack - 15
Kronk, as surreptitiously as possible will drink 2 potions of healing.
4 +2 (oophs) 6
(Drat, its too early here, suppose to be two d4 +2). Plus 5
So he is now up to 24 ht pts
Panic is a mechanism that strengthens the gene pool.
As soon as the distance between Kronk and the chieftain is abut fifty feet, Kronk will rise to his feet silently and hurl two dagger at the chieftain.
Attack: 13 Damage: 9
Attack: 20 Damage: 9
OCC Does attacking an unsuspecting opponent from behind have any relevance in this situation?
Panic is a mechanism that strengthens the gene pool.
The chief is exactly 5ft from Kronk. If you remember, he knocked you out and you used your Relentless Endurance to survive.
And to answer your question, no. Surprise rounds only work at the beginning of combat.
Who are we waiting on?
In that case he will melee. Should he reroll everything, just dmg or what?
Panic is a mechanism that strengthens the gene pool.
Hmmm? In post #505 the Chieftain is 30 ft from Kronk.
Panic is a mechanism that strengthens the gene pool.
In Post 505, the chief is standing by Kronk. The chief is 30ft away from Helena and Lia.
Kronk can make melee attacks against the chief or he can disengage and run back towards the village. Those are just two options
Lia, Helena, and Brodan have posted their actions. I still need something from Kronk and Harq.

Kronk, who is truly pissed, will go all-or-nothing strikes upon the chieftain.

(So did Lia's spell end up affecting the chief then or was it countered somehow?)
((It did affect the chief and the necrotic damage was added in. It’s the magic surge effect that I mentioned before.))
