Bob only seems to calm once Ireena comes back with Tio, unharmed for the most part. "What kind of devilish power could do such a thing? The least we can do is rid this land o' one more o' that bastard's foul creatures." He nods solemnly at Gillain.
"If anyone is still reelin' from that fight, I can try an' heal yer wounds."
Bob turns toward Ismark and Ireena and tries his best to give them a convincing smile and a nod. "O' course! We have, er, lots o' experience with the undead."
Turning back to the rest of the group, especially Gillain at the door, he whispers loudly, "Are we sure this is the right course o' action? Oh well, let's get this over with." He drops his shield for now so he can raise his shillelagh in one hand and keep his other empty to cast a spell should they need to restrain poor Duro on the other side of the door.
Ban looks concerned but steps away from the door to allow Gillian passage. She holds her bedroll and rope at the ready, anxiously awaiting whatever might transpire next.
“Ismark perhaps hiding in the opposite room would be the best course of actions.” Tio will stick to the back of the group guarding Ismark and Ireena until they go to one of the rooms. “Also try not to fall unconscious, again.”
The party moves aside and the door swing in as Gillain opens it. Before you stands a 10 ft. wide x 15 ft. long room containing trash and debris scattered about it, with the largest collection being in the northeast corner of the room. Large pools of water stand at various spots in the room. In the southeast corner of the room, the party can see the top of a trap door that has been broken open, the pieces of the door scattered about in that corner. The overwhelming stench of refuse, rotting meat, and death assault you as a slight breeze flows in and out of the room. Standing in the middle of the room is a young man, no more than 17, with red hair. His cloths, once fine, is now matted with dirt, mud, and a number of things you do not care to examine too closely. His complexion is pale and he looks as though he has not eaten in weeks. His cold eyes turn to you and seem to glow red as he says: "You smell so sweet!" He launches himself towards you. Initiative, please. (and first actions) Let me know if you see your character as standing someplace else on the map and I will change it.
Bob allows himself a moment of pity for the wretched starved creature behind the door before panic gripped him. He shouts as he sees it lunge for Gillain and holds his palm out towards it, casting Chill Touch on Duro.

Gillain’sinitiative: 6
Gillain draws her spear and focuses her spiritual energy to use Channel Divinity: Sacred Weapon (her Action)…
Channel Divinity: Sacred Weapon:
For 1 minute, you:
- add your Charisma modifier to attack rolls made with that weapon (with a minimum bonus of +1).
- The weapon also emits bright light in a 20-foot radius (and dim light 20 feet beyond that).
- If the weapon is not already magical, it becomes magical for the duration.
The spear becomes a beacon of bright light, filling the room with light, and lighting up all the dark corners.
She then uses her Bonus action to cast divine favor, and her spear shimmers and shines even more. It almost hums and buzzes with radiant energy (+1d4 radiant damage to attacks).
With her Movement — and with a solemn look on her face — she simply walks over into melee range with Duro, while saying kindly, “It’s time to rest now. Be at peace…”.

Initiative:15
Tio will move the two siblings into one of the rooms, to the left [according to the map] away from Duro’s room. “Please until the vampire is dealt with, stay in this room.”

Gimble:
Initiative: 18
Gimble stands at the back of the group as the door opens. Upon smelling the odor of undeath, seeing the boy transformed into a vampire, and hearing his hungry pleas once more, he realizes that all they can do at this point is put him down before he hurts anyone.
”He is fully a vampire and must be destroyed,” says Gimble sadly as he makes the arcane gestures needed to evoke three missiles of force that slam into the vampire’s body.
Duro rushes forth and attacks Gillain. Attack #1: 16 Attack #2: 19 Duro's 1st attack hits Gillain midstride. Gillain takes 14 h. p. of damage. Duro lashes out with clawed hands with his second attack but his claws just rake and scratch Gillain's armor.
Gimble points his finger and utters the arcane words. 4 missiles fly from Gimble's outstretched hand and strike Duro.
Ban moves in and tries to entangle Duro in her bedroll. Duro's athletic check: 7 But Duro, with his supernatural strength, easily rebuffs Ban's attempt and remains free.
Tio uses this round to guide Ismark and Ireena away from the combat.
Gillainuses her actions to summon the holy energies within her and prepare for the next round of combat. Her spear lights up and that light shines brightly flooding the room and out into the hallway of the church.
Bob chants in a long forgotten dwarven language and a glowing, disembodied skeletal hand appears and reachs out for Duro but, misses.

Gimble:
Keeping his distance, Gimble sends another trio of magic missiles headed the vampire's way. "He is regenerating! Take him down quickly!" says the concerned gnome.

Gilllain is the focus of Duro's round 2 attacks. Attack #1: 22 Attack #2: 25 Duro's 1st claw attack cut into Gillain again doing 8 h.p. of damage to her. Again Duro's second attack rakes across Gillain's armor but does no damage.
Gimble again fires a series of Magic Missile doing damage to Duro.
Ban drops the bedroll, mortified. She puts her hands to her head and cries out, "Duro! Please! Nobody else has to die! Just get out of here. Run!" Ban will draw the silvered short sword and readies an attack action if the boy doesn't take off.

Gillain moves closer to the door. Does it look like it would open easily if the party stopped holding it closed? Or is it barred or locked, etc?

Gillain calls to the vampire, “Master Duro?… We can end all this… … If you cooperate, it won’t take long…”
”Step back from the door… I’m coming in…”. Gillain waits for any response from Duro.

Tio returns with Ireena as Gillain, Gimble, and Bob have their exchange.
Ismark moves to Ireena's side and whispers something in her ear. Both of them move away from the party.
Everyone feels Ismark's gaze as he retreats with Ireena. "Are you sure this is the right course of action?" he asks.
In response to Gillain's statement, Duro says from the other side of the door: "Please, come in!"
Bob turns toward Ismark and Ireena and tries his best to give them a convincing smile and a nod. "O' course! We have, er, lots o' experience with the undead."

Gillain steps over, stows her spear, and holding her shield ready gives the door a try.
