Boriglar uses his bonus action: step of the wind to be able to run and Flank the Vrock (just leaving room for others). Using his staff and following through with a kick.
Attack: 19 Damage: 12
Attack: 15 Damage: 13
(Willing to try stunning strike twice -Con save dc 15)
The Vrock is stunned so it auto fails that save and is now glowing with a faint purple light. It mutters out haltingly "You must... leave... this one... is pledged.... to me"
Roardaar closes the remaining distance to the vrock and screams a challenge in draconic (bonus: Rage). As he is filled with the fury of a white dragon, the air around him seems to cool and the moisture in the air condenses into a layer of protective frost over his allies (3 temp HP for the NPC and anyone else who is within 10').
He then swings his battleaxe at the stunned creature:

Bree will narrow her eyes at the vrock's words. She says nothing, but exchanges looks with Wellby and then she closes in on the creature. Heaving her greatclub into her hands, she swings in an upward arc and then uses her second attack to bring it back down, attempting to bash the vrock on the skull.
Attack 1: 14 Damage: 9
Attack: 13 Damage: 8
Hunter's Mark for First Attack: 3
Hunter's Mark for 2nd Attack: 1
Bree gasps for breath after missing with her heavy swings so instead of directing Wellby to attack, she just points urgent at the vrock, trusting her companion to understand. Sure enough the crab focuses in on the vrock and swings a giant claw at it.
Crab Claw Grapple Attack: 17 Damage: 9. If hit, the vrock is grappled (DC 11 to escape.)
So Bree doesn't have much luck but Welby steps up and claws the Vrock for 7 dmg and grapples it (It's still stunned so it auto fails that save. You've all been doing a really good job of controlling this thing)
Corin moving into melee range gets a good hit with his first attack causing 12 dmg. You guys are starting to put a serious hurting on this thing now!
The bishop raises his mace to take another swing but it appears to become heavy in his hand and as it falls to the ground his body follows it. He looks up to the party and you see blood trickling from his nose. He tries to speak but instead coughs up blood and just makes a gurgling sound. His eyes go wide and he gives the party an imploring look as if willing them to do something. He looks back and forth between his hand and the party twice then his eyes go still. As his hand goes limp you see a brass tube roll to the ground.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(I am going to assume the Vrock ended its turn within 5 ft of Nolla, so she would have done rh reaction to move away and would be standing 30 feet away from it now.)
Nolla, seeing the priest go down holds up her shield, with the symbol of an open book on it. Power shimmers in the symbol, then lances out to strike the downed priest. She then moves back in to face the Vrock, brandishing her rapier again, and the same greenish energy shimmering on its blade. Once more she drives the blade in at the Vrock. After the strike she twirls away, out of reach of the creature once again.
As Nolla's shield flashes against the priest he sputters to life. His eyes wide as his hands starts patting the ground looking for the tube. Nolla 'dances' in and pierces the Vrock between Welbys' claw as a booming force smashes the Vrock into the ground KILLING it.
The priest having air in his lungs once again coughs out "go here. it's... the... only"
His head collapses to the ground. You can still hear his breath wheezing through his mouth but it's very weak.
Seeing the priest just barely holding on after Nolla helped with her heal, Perdot will sprint up to him, dropping his shield, kneeling down and putting both hands on the priest saying softly "wait..."and cast Cure Wounds at 4th level for 25.
Snapping out of the fight, Boriglar takes a moment, feeling useless as he can’t figure out a way to help the priest. Relieved at seeing Nolla provide healing magic.
He looks at the tube while using his detect magic to see if there is any residual energy in the vial.
Roardaar continues to hack at the corpse of the vrock with his battleaxe until finally his rage subsides and he realizes that the fight is over. He then begins examining the corpse, looking for a suitable trophy to take, perhaps a tooth or an eyeball.
The priest eyes suddenly become clear "I must see the commander! There's no time to waste."He scoops the tube back up and starts running towards the town.
Perdot, shocked at how quickly the priest simply up and ran, grabs his shield and, with only a quickly glance at his team to ensure that everyone else is ok, shifts into an owl and flies to follow (knowing that his run speed is slower than most).
Nolla hits the Vrock with the booming blade surrounding it with a thunderous force causing 13 dmg
That brings us to Boriglar
That's what happens when you wear a helmet your whole life!
My house rules

Attack: 19 Damage: 12
Attack: 15 Damage: 13

Boriglar swings with the staff but it doesn't connect. The kick however does, yet it doesn't seem to do as much damage as you would expect.
Con save: 12
Even though the kick didn't seem to do so much damage it leaves the vrock stunned until the start of Boriglar's next turn.
That will brings us to Perdot
That's what happens when you wear a helmet your whole life!
My house rules
(OOC: if the Vrock ends its turn within 5 feet of Nolla, she will use her reaction to move away from it.)
Being that is rather dark out, Perdot will run to get into range and try to light it up with a purple faerie fire (dex dc 16)

He then swings his battleaxe at the stunned creature:
Attack1: 29 Damage: 16
Attack2: 14 Damage: 12
Roardaar hits with the first swing of his ax but again it doesn't seem to do as much damage as it should. The Vrock take 8 dmg.
(Everyone can take the 3 temp HP except Bree and Perdot who are attacking at range)
You all can see that the Vrock is hurt but not showing any signs of slowing.
That brings us around to Bree

That brings up Corin next

Corin will drop his bow Bonus action rage and move up to the monster. Drawing his +1 longsword
longsword attack 1: 21 damage: 10 rage damage: +2
attack 2: 11 damage: 8 rage damage: +2
Corin moving into melee range gets a good hit with his first attack causing 12 dmg. You guys are starting to put a serious hurting on this thing now!
