Vilus's bolt deflects harmlessly off of one of the thing's teeth as it continues forward, though it looks like its momentum was a little impacted by his earlier magic. Its tentacles feel out the ground, walls, and ceiling 10 feet in front of it as it surges forward, but it doesn't seem to notice Joren's echo until it is practically already in the cave crawler's mouth.
(Joren can roll an attack of opportunity, and can you also roll a dex save for the echo?)

Samir gawks at the giant worm for a moment before turning and moving hastily down the corridor. As he moves he pulls out his bolt thrower, cradling it and setting a bolt into the firing position. He turns quickly, bringing the weapon to bear at the same time as he channels a thread of willpower into the weapon. An invisible thread of magical energy suddenly flares into being, linking the monster and Samir's device, a thread that will help guide his bolts with greater velocity towards their target. With that established, he raises the weapon and fires before continuing to scamper down the tunnel.
Casting Hunter's Mark.
Crossbow attack: 7 to hit, 9 plus 6 piercing damage.

The cave crawler approaches, and Joren's echo stabs deep into its mouth. It shrieks in pain and comes to an abrupt stop (sentinel feat). Something swells inside of it, building up, and it spews forth a massive jet of acid right before getting hit with Ashley's scorching blast.
(Everyone roll a dex save, DC 15 including the echo. On a failure, take 15 acid damage. Half as much on a success. No damage on a crit.)
When Ashley releases her spell, everyone feels the air around her heat up more than usual. Her hair bursts into flame, and her magic feels larger and wilder (Until the end of her next turn, all fire damage {not attack rolls} dealt within 30 feet of Ashley is rolled with advantage). As the fire strikes it, the hideous creature shrieks again, the rows of teeth beginning to rotate within its mouth. Samir's bolt clanks off of its teeth and quickly gets ground into splinters.
Malachi Dex Save: 13
Marion Dex Save: 15
Malachi, horrified, manages to get out of the way of the worst of the spray, as does Marion, and sends a skeletal hand at the creature to claw at it and hopefully slow it down as he continues to flee down the tunnel toward the opening.
Vilus chokes back a growl of pain through gritted teeth, the burning flesh of the Goliaths skin ripples through several variations as his untamed magical disguising freaks out, burning flesh, writhing black tentacles, thousands of eyes, fluffy blue fur, solid stone, (using today's "stone's endurance to negate, 9 damage) then back to the burning as the first shock of the pain wears off and is replaced by an agonising but constant sear.

Attack 1: 19 Damage: 15 Attack: 20 Damage: 13
Joren grimaces silently, skin burning though he dodges the worst of the acid. As his echo is burned away, he doggedly re-summons it and moves it back to the crawler, stepping forward himself back towards the creature as far as needed so he can attack it from the echo's position. Exhausting his reserves of energy to make two huge swings, across and then a looping backhand.
"Keep sending your attacks and spells. My echo vanishing is fine - I can be summoning it again when it disappears. Malachi, are you having that dissonant magic you were using before twice which is making an enemy move away?"
(He is unaware of the bonus to fire magic damage which might incent spell-casters to use that instead.)

As Malachi runs down the tunnel, fleeing the strange, wormlike creature, Joren’s shouts help focus him on a plan to at least slow the beast. “I don’t know if it will work. I couldn’t reach into the shadow creatures' minds. But I will try.” Malachi turns and [spell}Dissonant Whispers;whispers[/spell] almost silently in the cavern, filling the worm’s mind with pain and suffering.
(WIS Save 14 or 12 psychic damage and it must use its reaction to move away as far as it's speed allows. Half damage and no movement on a successful save).
(Unsure if it is Ashley’s turn, but while I have a moment, I’ll post it)
She watches is amazement as the damage her scorcher does with her new toy is brilliant in her mind, her hair fully alight, intune with her emotions. Knowing she has until the end of her turn, she casts produce flame at the giant worm, hoping to hit it…
Each time the Crawler gets hit by an attack or spell, its momentum appears to slow a bit, but it still moves forward at a terrifying pace. It quickly covers 61 ft (100 ft - 39 damage from the round). This time, ready for the echo, its tentacles thrash about 10 ft before it, trying to grab the echo and pull it into its toothy maw.

Smashing the echo into pieces without getting anything to bite, it continues its rush forward, now reaching out for Joren with its two remaining tentacles.
Attack: 8 Damage: 5
Attack: 11 Damage: 7
To avoid being grappled, Joren needs to beat a DC 17 Strength save
Vilus makes another move whilst unhooking his crossbow and hastily firing a shot back, 7 to hit, 3 damage.

Joren's greatsword attack of opportunity from his echo's position. If it hits, should slow enemy movement to 0' due to Sentinel feat I believe?

As the acid sprays all over Ashley, she lets out a scream in pain. It eats away at her skin and she looks up at the worm in renewed horror.
