There's a large window on one wall of the office, easily large enough for a person to pass through comfortably - once the glass is taken care of, that is. The party's currently on the second floor, so a drop that way would perhaps be slightly painful, but certainly not life-threatening.

Stella's eyes flare orange at the mention of assassins. She gives a command to the snake to drag Jhasso from the desk as instructed and poises itself to strike. Were they shapechangers in the guise of the actual individuals?
"Fight or flee?" she asks the group, tome and hand raised as she edges herself away from the door with her eyes locked on Jhasso.

Several things happen at once.
The office door opens and the slender man from the foyer below steps through, right into the path of Dieter's readied blade...
Over the slender man's shoulder the party can see two more men coming up the stairs, their faces bearing fierce grins...
Jhasso's face melts like candle wax, turning grey and nearly featureless. The snake's coils tighten on the not-firbolg, but somehow he makes himself thin and slippery enough to slide free from the snake's grip - and his own clothes. As 'Jhasso' straightens, his grotesquely bland form ripples with hairless lean muscle. Whatever bruises he suffered from the snake seem to have healed. His eyes shine with cold intelligence, and a gash opens where his mouth should be, revealing monstrous teeth...

"Bind!" she commands again. She drops her book to her side and shrugs off her bow as her body transforms into one of stars. Floating stars form a dragon head, wings and a tail on her as she knocks and fires.

Stella (37/37 HP, 17 AC from new ironwood half plate, at the rear of the group)
Auroth (60/60 HP, AC 12)
Reaction: Cosmic Omen. Stella will use her reaction to give 'Jhasso' -1d6 to his next attack roll by shouting a warning to the target. Or shield instead if that attack is against her and would hit.

Round 1 Summary
Jhasso struggles mightily against the conjured snake, digging deep furrows in its side with nasty claws (snek takes 12 slashing dmg), but the snake slips its length around him once more.
Meanwhile, the slender man swipes at Dieter, his own claws growing rapidly to slash the young fighter across the arm (Dieter takes 9 slashing dmg). Dieter and Aiwe beat him back, and he tumbles down the stairs. The slender man's quite dead by the time he stops at the bottom, his corpse morphing into an expressionless gray humanoid much like Jhasso.
The other two doppelgangers snarl and step up to engage Dieter and Aiwe, and Dieter takes another gash through his armor (Dieter takes 9 more slashing dmg).
Light flashes through the office as Stella fires her shining bolt at Jhasso, burning him with magical radiance. Even as she watches, however, Jhasso's wounds start to close (Jhasso regains 10 hp).
"We're going to feast on your flesh, crack open your bones and suck free the sweet marrow. And we'll steal your faces, so we can do the same to your loved ones!" Jhasso promises.

Stella snarls in response to the creature's words, eye-stars flaring to red. "You will feast on no one!" she shouts at him. "'Tis your bones that will crack!" She didn't know if he had any bones, given how he had melted out of her snake's grasp, but she didn't care.
The snake attempts to squeeze 'Jhasso' further, but he manages to keep himself from getting crushed any further. His efforts don't help him avoid Stella's next radiant blast, however. (17 radiant damage to 'Jhasso'. An attack next round has advantage, even if he escapes the grapple this round.)

Round 2 Summary
The two 'men' at the door reach for the party with elongated claws, but Dieter and Aiwe first cut down one and start on the other. A second gray, wax-like corpse falls to join the first at the bottom of the stairs. The remaining opponent manages to score a hit on Aiwe's shoulder (Aiwe takes 9 slashing dmg)
'Jhasso' lets out something like a mix between a howl and a hiss, ripping chunks of flesh out of the giant snake (snek takes 24 slashing dmg). Surely if it were a normal beast, the snake wouldn't survive such grievous wounds. But Stella's conjuration is fulfilling its purpose, and continues to hold the elder doppelganger tightly.
As 'Jhasso's' wounds continue to heal, to some extent, Stella thinks fire is worth a try. If not that, then perhaps acid. The elder doppelganger isn't wearing any metal - isn't wearing anything at all, in fact. Except a large snake. If that counts.

Auroth the Ice Snake writhes in pain at the onslaught, then wraps itself around 'Jhasso' another loop and squeezes even tighter to crush its prey. ('Jhasso' takes 23 bludgeoning damage.)
Gritting her teeth in anger and determination—and heedless of her summoned creature—Stella drops her bow and whips out her staff of fire and swings it forward shooting a sheet of flames across the room, over the desk into 'Jhasso' and the snake.
