After the conflagration that envelops the orc who attacked him, Auric nods with satisfaction that his frosty scales are still in effect (6 temp hp left).
Now with separation from the remaining orcs, he fires a rippling eldritch bolt at any who yet survive (Wrath of the Dragon, on a hit it blasts the foe 10 feet back).

Mr.Dark looks at the dead orc has his feet, and presses him arm in on his side where he's taken a wound. He drops his rapier, reloads his crossbow, and fires it at the last orc, while keeping pressure on his side and taking a deep breath. (Second Wind : 11 hps regained.)
Attack: 10 Damage: 6
He glances back for the cow...his ears perked, listening for sound of its movement.

What's the difference between a Wizard and a Sorcerer? Class.
With it’s success, Auric’s defence tactic was a combination to be proud of. Unfortunately his follow up was beyond lack lustre. The bolt careens completely off target, crashing into an adjacent wall.
From his section of the building, Mr. Dark makes an attempt at finishing off the orc with his crossbow when the bolt would fire wide of it’s target. Clearly his mind wasn’t on the Orc ahead of him. Where could have that cow gone?
First he’d hear…
[Insert multiple Scooby Doo confused ‘huh’s coming from upstairs.]
Then he’d smell ‘a trap’…
Back in the room, Kaemgen commands as he raises his weapons to the final orc. He’d bring down his battle axe and silence him for good.
Looking at them mess on the floor in front of him, Kaemgen would take a moment to catch his breath... then look up. "Did you hear something from up there?" he'd hushedly ask the others and begin creeping towards the stairs no matter their answer.
Wait, was cow inside? He wonders to himself, but then shakes it out of his head until he finishes investigating.
Mr. Dark would be able to confirm Kaemgen’s suspicions of sounds coming from upstairs. The man would move through the kitchen towards the door Mr. Dark had come through and where the noises could be coming from. But that wasn’t all.
The door to the east of the front entrance opens. An Orc casually leans in to start chastising his comrades in his native tongue when his eyes would widen at the sight of intruders. He’d shout, calling back to others in the room behind him.
“Oh! I’m se glad we caught you at home! We’re here to talk to you about our low low rates for rain gutters!” Kaemgen says in Orcish as the new arrival sticks his head in. Or would, if he knew Orcish. Instead he just clashes his weapons together and tries to quickly decide if he’s needed more downstairs or up…
But there are definitely things to fight downstairs, so that wins out! Kaemgen starts moving in that direction…
Mr.Dark bends down and picks up his rapier, and grabs a dirty cloth hanging from his backpack and wipes the orc blood off of it, resheathing the weapon. In a whispery voice he says, "I think there's some more orcs in here...." (an orc shows himself at the door) ".... I knew it!"
He lifts his crossbow to fire.....

The orc ducks back into the room to prepare for battle with his buddies!
Initiative Time! (Don’t have my prepped map available to me from here, so I’m going off of memory and we all know how reliable that could be… But I’m pretty sure there’s four of them… And since I technically said out of initiative, I suppose we should roll initiative again?)

Mr.Dark Init : 6
Mr. Dark is about to pull the trigger when the Orc ducks back into the room. He instead rushes forward, leaping into a roll coming up on one knee as he enters the room, and looks around at the orcs and tries to get as many as he can, as he holds out a hand and lets the power of Tymora flow through him, emerges as a spray of flames that spray across the room.
Burning Hands, 15 foot cone, for 8 fire damage. Dex DC 11 Save for half.

(5 is still better than your previous 4! He’s paying a little bit more attention?) (Daisy doesn’t stray from the danger zone.)
Initiative Dark | O5 | Auric | O8 | O7 | Xeno | D | O6 | Kaemgen
With dramatics of epic proportions, Dark makes his mission impossible, possible. It was a 10/10 tumble into the dining room. At the two wooden trestle tables flanked by benches were the orcs. Behind them cattle skulls on the walls add to the decor. With a natural flow that only Tymora could have blessed, Dark gets the drop on the orcs, engulfing them in flame.

Charred to some extent, the orc shakes his head and rumbles his jowls before letting out a battle cry. He charges the flame throwing man.

It’d almost be fitting to nickname Xeno’s hammer the Orc Smasher considering the damaged he’s unleashing against them with such casual effort. With another epic orc smash, the Dragonborn bashes the sixth orc with such force, it knocks him practically senseless.
