As Crucible charges, across the still green pool and through the swarm of rats, the creatures nip, scratch, and gnash at his feet and legs. The giant rat also swings its bloated body around for a shrieking lunge.
Opportunity attack (S3): 0od4S_yB1d20+2
Damage: 2d6 Piercing
Opportunity attack (R): 1d20+4
Damage: 1d4+2 Piercing
The unconscious man, carried as he is, is protected from the rats’ ravenous hunger.
Watching with beady eyes as the warforged makes it to the foot of the stone steps, only a few of the rats scurry after him. Instead, disinterested in the lack of food from the strange metal being, most of the rat swarm collects at the foot of the passage holding Juliette, the brown-furred creatures sniffing, licking, and rolling around in the streaks of blood there. A few wiggle their whiskers at the paladin, with the occasional rat still attempting (futilely) to make the climb up to her.

Juliette leapt down in a wide arc. She landed awkwardly, but it was a simple matter to pick herself back up from the floor, sweeping her blade around. Darkness trailed across the edge of the blade as she slashed into the rats that had crowded around - she was certain that she would shortly be surrounded, but that just meant it would be more difficult for her to miss the vermin.

Juliette’s blade cleaves through the darkness just as a few rats leap toward her and, with a shrill scream, they drop to the ground dead. The rest of the swarm turns their illuminated red eyes and gnash their incisors.
Unwilling to give up it’s strange metallic, but still humanoid smelling, prey, the giant rat that nipped at Crucible’s heels waddles after him. Squeezing into the passageway, it bites and claws at whatever bit of the warforged it can reach with a frenzied hunger.
Attack: 65ehx3Et1d20+4
Damage: 1d4+2
The metallic scent of blood, wafting from the pool left by the gnome-like creature, flows through the chamber.

The rat nibbled ineffectually at Crucibles heels, its teeth scraping off his metal plating. With his hands tied, Crucible aimed another kick. Hopefully Juliette would catch up soon.

Crucible’s foot makes solid contact with the bloated rat, bloodying its nose and knocking clean one of its incisors with a sickening crunch. It wails in a mix of pain and anger.
Close by the smaller rats, noticing the newer, more alive prey now in their midst, begin to swarm over Juliette with a frenzied shriek. Small furry orbs of teeth and claw jump, scurry, and nibble across the paladin’s lower body. Though most of the swarm is unable to reach her, those that do try desperately to find some scrap of flesh amidst the creature’s bizarre metal casing.

Juliette was not blind to the fact that she was in a very open position here. Surrounded on all sides by the vermin, she hissed with irritation as some of their fangs found purchase through her armour.
She brushed the rats aside, shaking them from her body as she backed up towards the exit Crucible was securing. One large rat to slay, and then they would have the advantage of the terrain.
(Disengage to back up without provoking AoOs)

The rats shrieked and screamed and whined as Juliette brushed them off. A few, bolstered by red incisors and the taste of their prey, attempted pitiful leaps back at the paladin as she retreated, but they only thumped dully against the metal of her armor. A hundred eyes followed Juliette’s movement as the remainder of the swarm gnashed and scratched at the stonework where she once stood.
The giant rat, blood still streaming from its mangled head, reared its body around and leapt toward the approaching human. Whether intelligent enough to try and break the encirclement the creature now found itself in, attracted by the very non-metallic flesh of this new prey, or simply incensed and driven into a frenzy from its wounds, it reached at Juliette with fangs and claws searching for any crevice or gap in her plates.
Attack: 95S6BixA1d20+4
Damage: 1d4+2
The scent of blood, now a mix of the gnome-like creature’s black ichor and the pestilent remains of a few dead rats, continued to waft heavily through the circular chamber.

Crucible aimed another kick at the giant rat, hoping to finish it off quickly.

Catching it just as it squirmed back and around for another frenzied attack, the giant rat’s skull gave a sickening crunch underneath Crucible’s metal heel. Its bloated body thumped limp to the ground.
At the same time, the bulk of the rat swarm still within the circular chamber surged forward, led by the hunger of the rats who had already managed a taste of human blood. They swirled like a furry, pestilent, squeaking and writhing and biting river around Juliette’s feet, trying once more to find any food within her metal casing.
Attack: rQkkNVra1d20+2
Damage: 2d6 piercing
The nature of the narrow stone hallway, and the size of the swarm itself, however, prevented most of the rats from squeezing into the gap.
