The Horde is a massive wave of skinless, deformed Afflicted. After each players turn, the Horde attacks everyone once. If you cast any AOE spells, the damage affects the “main” group, but the damage is doubled. So, for example, casting a fireball that would do 40 damage in an AOE now does 80 damage to the Horde.
Jimmy quickly runs up to Jeremiah, rips a vial of holy water out of his robes, and splashes it over Jeremiah while chanting an incantation (casting Protection from Evil and Good on Jeremiah - all horde attacks on him are now at disadvantage).
And then as a bonus action, he gives the stink eye towards the oncoming horde (casting Hunter's Mark).
Jeremiah communes with the spirits of the land for a moment, causing their anger at this corruption to manifest in gouts of Erupting Earth - causing twice 12 damage to the horde (DEX 13 ST for half damage?).
Immediately after he brings forth the spirit of the Unicorn...
(Unicorn Spirit. The unicorn spirit lends its protection to those nearby. You and your allies gain advantage on all ability checks made to detect creatures in the spirit’s aura. In addition, if you cast a spell using a spell slot that restores hit points to any creature inside or outside the aura, each creature of your choice in the aura also regains hit points equal to your druid level)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ingrid pulls her axe out, cutting along her shin, letting the blood seep celestial power into the weapon (5) she swiftly cuts the scarecrow in half before turning to the horde, “Into the fray” she rushes forward hacking and slicing the undead horde.

Yes, wicked!! That's enough damage to the Horde for it to be considered felled. Like a birthing child, something terrible emerges from the open wound, head first. Ezzozito throbs and pushes his way out of the afflicted earth, a horrific semi transparent fetus, blind and wet, with a long umbilical cord that's open at the end with a terrible toothed maw - whipping and thrashing. Ezzozito is being held up by a wicker arm at the neck, as if something much, much larger is deeper underground supporting him up. He doesn't speak, it just lives through the warped and twisted Affliction, an awful monstrosity throbbing with magic and anger.
The theory needs to be mastered before you can put it into practice.
Keep out of the graveyard.
Keep away from the fireplace.
You'll burn the whole house down if you do this without practice.
You'll summon something you can't control if you do this without practice.
Focus, Shiara.
Who needed restraint when she had fire? When she was fire? When death was hers to command, to dispense, to control?
Shiara smiles cruelly at the effect her fireball had, then flicks a finger, and her zombies surge forward, going for Ezzozito, their limbs bolstered with necromantic magic. As they attack, the young woman weaves together another ball of fire, this one smaller, stabler. She almost felt like herself again. The old her. Mistress of disease, of fire, of death.
Ezzozito emits of terrible infant screeching, letting loose a wave of Afflicted sonic energy. Everyone needs to make a DC18 DEX save to take half of 29 "sonic" damage.
