Umbriel will begin climbing up to where Cronan said he saw the bugbear. As he starts looking for footholds, he'll whisper back to the group. "Be ready to run. Baeshra, if you would be so good as to start a fire somewhere that won't be affected if they try that wave attack you mentioned earlier."
Athletics: 5
Assuming Umbriel makes it up to where he can see the bugbear, he'll loose an Eldritch Blast at him. Attack: 14 Damage: 10

"Come and get me, you hirsute buffoon!"
Umbriel deftly makes his way up the tight, vertical passageway. He gets a good look at the Bugbear, and seems to be going unnoticed until he fires off a blast of magical Eldritch energy at the Bugbear.
The Eldritch Blast goes over the Bugbears head, but the shout gets his attention. Klarg whirl around and peers into the darkness before shouting: "Now who dares to attack the mighty Klarg! Show yourself!"
He makes some hand motions behind him, and then seems to wait.

Omen
Omen gets a wild expression on his face: "By the Gods we're doing this.....in this space.' he exclaims. "too late now, goblins are probably pouring down the corridor as we speak." he thinks to himself.
The Kennel, where everyone except Umbriel is currently, is 30 feet below Klarg's cave. A narrow, chimney-like fissure leads straight up from the back of the Kennel to Klarg's cave. Umbriel is at the top of the chimney with his head poking out into Klarg's cave.
Nobody in the Kennel can see or hear Klarg, and vice-versa.
The chimney can be ascended or descended with a successful Athletics check, but right now Umbriel has it blocked, so you can't go any higher than him. The chimney is considered difficult-terrain, so climbing or descending is done at half-speed.
We're not in initiative yet, characters are free to roam around at will.

Umbriel will descend quickly, since stealth seems superfluous now. Athletics: 16
He will then move to the entrance of the cave, ushering others along, but keeping an eye on the narrow passage with an eldritch blast ready just in case of something following him down.

Umbriel, throw a stealth check and an initiative roll in there too.
Everyone else roll initiative and post your first round actions.
OCC: Ok are we taking up position in the wolves den or from outside?
Initiative: 5
Kume stood back against wall and waited for the more lightly armoured to retreat before covering their escape.

Action will depend on what I can see, so can't really determine ahead of time.
OK, we're not in initiative yet, but we'll use those rolls shortly.

Kume waited, " If your leaving this killbox....now would be the time folks!"
If no one else leaves he moves towards the exit at speed, this is not a good room to be trapped in...
Round 1:
Whistler will attempt to mimic Klarg's voice and instruct his wolves to attack Klarg by saying, "Attack Klarg!"
Deception if needed: 16

Allow me to clarify the situation:
The Kennel, where everyone except Umbriel is currently, is 30 feet below Klarg's cave. A narrow, chimney-like fissure leads straight up from the back of the Kennel to Klarg's cave. Umbriel is at the top of the chimney with his head poking out into Klarg's cave.

He will then move to the entrance of the cave, ushering others along, but keeping an eye on the narrow passage with an eldritch blast ready just in case of something following him down.
Baeshra will move to the entrance and try to hide in the bushes on (our) left.
Stealth: 22
Ouch! You fall the whole way, taking 17 bludgeoning damage.
