Stop the Madness Already (D3 LA, The Hive) (Combat)

Home Ward of the Xaositects, whose home base never stays in the same place twice. The rest of the district is mostly abandoned tenement housing, filled to the brim with squatters and coney catchers. Canny cutters best get about their business and leave.

Ore raises his shield as the magic comes closer, channeling arcane energy as a dome to have the magic fizzle instead of striking

Movement: Illiam'iira moves to join Ore and Quev. 15ft movement.
Action: Her hands clasp together as she begins to sing her first spell. Illi casts Enchanting Drums. All PCs now have advantage on saving throws and can re-roll 1s for attacks. -1 4th level spell slot.
Bonus action: As she sings, her body begins to glow. Quev, Ore, Cyprian, and Boy all gain +8 temp HP and can use their reactions to move their full movement if they so choose. The movement is flavored as being like Misty Step, so do with that as you will. If Quev moves forward she will follow him to the last of her movement. Mantle of Inspiration, -1 bardic inspiration.

A Githyanki suddendly appears and, thru absolute will and no arcana, manifests a explosion on top of all of you.

"Feel the heat of the dancing flames! Embrace the inferno of chaos and let it consume your feeble attempts at control! My fire knows no bounds, and it will dance across your existence, leaving nothing but chaos in its wake! Come closer, and let the flames of Limbo lick at your soul!"

Several of the doors nearby you are blasted apart, opening up some proper cover for you.

It's a mighty blow to be sure, more Ore holds his shield and remains standing.

Boy isn't as lucky. The detonation rends the construct, leaving it as a smoking pile.

ROUND 2:

Following a massive explosion, most of you find yourself on the ground, hurting quite a bit...

Initiative Order:
Cyprian : 24
Ore: 19
Quevlin'e: 19
Chaosman #1: 18
Illiam'iira: 17
Chaosman #2: 14
Chaosmen #3
Chaosmen #4

Cyprian looks over at the Big bulky drow and casts a spell on him to make him even bigger and bulkier...scalier...and with teeth! Then IMMEDIATELY goes into the room with the cover away from that literal hot mess going on outside.

~~
Cyp casts Polymorph on Quevlin'e and turned him into a T-rex, spends rest of movement going into room.

Ore's Turn!

"That was my dog." Ore growls. The time to mourn is short. He quickly lays a hand on Illia and then charges to get closer
