Kaxaon is pleasantly surprised by Grumble's arrival just as he swings the door open.

The door swings barely open before it hits something soft. On the other side is an enormous horde of rabid, hungry giant rats, and they scramble to take a bite!
Two rats snap at Kaxaon from the door entrance (1/2 cover). Another two scramble over the heads of the others, stenched with urine, to strike. Spugnoir is fumbling frantically with his clothing.

Round two (after surprise)
Grumble is not particularly surprised that the squeaking came from giant rats. He'll fire his crossbow into the mass of rodents.
"These -" (twang) " - are NOT so good to eat."
He prepares his magical energy, bringing to mind the syllables of Zerjian's Stormwrack spell, in case it's needed next round...
"I know. I've tried them."

With a roar, Kaxaon stands his ground and attacks the nearest rat.
OOC:
*Kaxaon enters Rage.
*Savage attacker Feat: Once per turn when you roll damage for a melee weapon attack, you can reroll the weapon’s damage dice and use either total. I choose the higher result of course!

Darf rushes to Kaxons aid and pulls the rat off of him while jabbing his rapier through its head but He quickly backs away from the hoard before he can become the main focus of attention.
Ooc-if by the time he gets to kaxon the rats are in differant spots he will choose to pick any rat that will give him the sneak attack if they exist.

Round 2
Lighting: (very) dim, darkness when 15ft or more inside the room
Other info: the group is attacking through a downward-leading staircase. Other group members provide half cover to the rats, and shooting through them may result in friendly fire. The rats are scrambling at the door (now essentially open and not providing cover) and have disadvantage due to 'squeezing', but balanced by pack tactics. Only four rats can squeeze into the doorway at a time to fight Kaxaon, and the others scurry about in the darkness, frenzied by the smell of blood.
Spugnoir jumps and tries to climb out of the staircase. He squeezes out into the top room and continues searching his clothing.
Darf dashes to the location (can do as a bonus action at level 2) and sees the party crowding towards the staircase, but is unable to fire a shot. He sees Kaxaon pummeling into the rats with his chains. The chain lands and crushes both rats, but one survives and lashes rabidly at Kaxaon.

Round three?
"Sh'Atima!" Grumble murmurs, imbuing a crossbow bolt with radiance (light) as he loads it to fire again. Kaxaon's body is likely to cast a large, dancing shadow into the room at the moment, but fingers of light should extend into the room until Grumble is able to fire it next round.

The other rats can be heard scrambling blindly in the room below. Darf's arrow strikes the floor and lands somewhere in the room. Grumble's arrow fills the doorway with glowing radiance, extending dim light further into the room.

The roll below is not pvp, but just for fun. Jabes, feel free to ignore it if good, or interpret it hilariously if bad!

The rats lash out at Kaxaon, rebounding into the room after attacking out of uncontrolled rage or fear. Kaxaon may opportunity attack any of the rats, as long as he still has HP after being bitten by that rat!
(From what I understand, Kaxaon was on 5HP, and dropped to 0 after the first two hits. He receives 1 failed death save for the third hit)
Darf lunges in to attack the rats, but misses (before Kaxaon's turn). As he tries to slip away, the rat strikes back. Another rat chases him up the stairs, over Kaxaon's body, but he leaps away. The rat (d) is poised to attack him again and will do so if he tries to withdraw without disengage action

(Matthias up. You are all near enough to the stairs to attack rats on or near the stairs/door. Sorry Jabes, Kaxaon is likely rat lunch...I hope you like rolling up characters!)
Spugnoir is visibly disturbed, releasing a fearful gasp. He has something in his hand.
Elmo is also running towards combat for next round, drawing a bow.
