Ramious' strength came handy once again - it was not easy, but he managed to slowly push the massive door. It opened into a large hall. A narrow ledge overlooks a deep, dark crevasse that cuts the room in two. A dangerous-looking rope bridge, frayed and thin, spans the gap. Water gurgles and rushes somewhere far below. Two copper braziers burn brightly on either side of the door, illuminating the western half of the room. Another ledge is barely visible on the other side of the chasm.
Three orcs with bows greet you from the northern entrance and two more - from the southern.

So far, I've flown up to a window held on, started flying back to the entrance, then dropped down instead, cast an illusion, then ran over and pushed a door open. So....it feels like i've done a lot of stuff. If I'm busy pushing the door open still, let me know, otherwise let me know if I can attack.
We need Alyssa, but do far it looks like Ramious opened the door (DC was 20, by the way) and now Bernard got the first shot (then Ramious can join). One of the orc in the North group is an obvious caster.
A deep growl rises from the throat of Ramious, and then he rushes the orcs to the north. When he gets to the caster he attempts to shove him off the cliff.

My fault, I had to describe better - sorry, caster is a bit smarter than that, he is behind his fellow orcs. Does Ramious still want to throw an extra ear away? :)
If the ceiling is tall enough for Ramious to "leap" over the two orcs in the front and come down on the orc wizard, then...yes, goodbye ear. If there's not enough room for that, then O2 gets to go for a trip. I mean, pushing orcs off a cliff? You don't get a lot of chances for that, and it's darned fun. I encourage everyone to try it.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
I say Ramious plan is possible but with inevitable attack of opportunity from both orcs - 1 and 2. If price does not look too high, tiefling made a gigantic jump supported by his wings ( 15 ) and with one mighty push showed the enemy off the edge of the crevasse. Whatever kind of magic used that particular orc, he was not ready to the simple physical attack. And the crevasse seem to be indeed very, very deep.
Orcs tried to retaliate:
Orc 1: Attack: 23 Damage: 5
Orc 2: Attack: 21 Damage: 6
but the terrifying display of Ramious prowess left them too shaken to hit anything, yet again an agile target.
Bernard did not get his mark, and both orcs did not realized yet that they are in a crossfire, so, every they concentrated on their fast elusive enemy - tiefling:
Orc 1: Attack: 13 Damage: 9
Orc 2: Attack: 19 Damage: 9
This time fear and anger helped them concentrate and they managed to seriously wound Ramious.
Alyssa would wince for Ramious before letting out a sigh. “You’re getting that one’s ear!” She’ll shout up to him.
The elf will look around to count each of the remaining orcs. “Let’s shine some light on the subject.” She’ll snap her fingers, sending a familiar wave of radiant light from her body.
Ramious breathed easier to much horror of the orcs attacking him.

Meanwhile, combined force of Alyssa and Leon killed one of the southern orc on spot, leaving another wounded. The swearing beast, though, did not retreated:
orc vs Leon: Attack: 18 Damage: 8
not hurt but obviously blinded by the radiant light, orc missed miserably.
Now we have 1 southern orc (somewhat wounded) and 2 northern orcs (intact).
(Ramious is raging, so only took 8 damage, but...now he's fully healed again! This is great!)
Ramious spins to confont the other two orcs, grinning, and grabs the next one and attempts to toss him off the cliff as well. "I guess I already gotta get one ear, what's the harm getting another!"

Bernard drops his bow. He moves to the northern orc that isn't being manhandled and draws his short swords. With his fey beetles buzzing around, he lashes out with two strikes at the orc.
Attack: 15 Damage: 8
Bonus attack: 5
If either attack hits add 4 force damage and target is pushed back 5 feet. If it's the 1st attack that hits, he closes that 5 feet to make his bonus attack.
Damage for 2nd attack which i some how forgot... 5
The orc never stood a chance - Ramious thrust him down the crevasse listening parting cursing like a music. If the remaining orc did not call for mama (may be he did, it's not like anyone would understand) - it is only because he was too busy dying from Bernard's attack. The orc survived, if barely but now did not know who to attack first. He chose his immediate assaulter:
Orc vs Bernard: Attack: 6 Damage: 8
He missed, but there was, however, an unexpected result of all the dying screaming - on the other side of the bridge you could spot a couple more moving silhouettes.
“Ramious you’ve got some new targets on the other side of the bridge!” At this point, it was worth encouraging. He proved it to be effective and would get the ears himself. How could she argue?
For good measure, seeing as they know we’re here, Alyssa will pluck another vial of holy water to Bless.
She’ll then send Hue out to circle the skies with Ramious.
(Do I foresee Orc Bowling? ;) Ramious, Bernard and Leon are now blessed. Add 1d4 to attack or damage. If allowed, Hue to help Ramious. Ie. swoop in behind orcs and caw to coral them onto the bridge? Or distract for adv? If he so desires.)

Orc do have bows! And as stupid as they are, it does not look like they are going to cross the bridge but they do look like they are searching for targets. (Initiative: orc5 21 , orc 6 7 ) and the bridge is about 50ft long.
