Attack 12 to hit for 6 force damage (if that hits)
Feeling ineffective thus far, and getting sprayed with gore, Iólinder will rethink his strategy of making himself a target and look about to see if there is an arbalest not already in use.
Hearing the the creature is weak to ice, Lira focuses and unleashes a blast of frost at if from her amulet. She then hurries to climb up to the raised level.
Zarbyn will move as needed to be within 60 feet range of the draklisk and cast Ray of Enfeeblement at it.
DC 15 CON save:
On a successful save, the target has Disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes until the start of your next turn.
On a failed save, the target has Disadvantage on Strength-based D20 Tests for the duration. During that time, it also subtracts 1d8 from all its damage rolls. The target repeats the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the spell on a success.
"I can weaken it for a while!"

Vydar grits his teeth in frustration, with his spells limited he can't do a lot in this confined space. Not with all his companions so close to the target. He doesn't have a lot of options at the moment, so he raises his hand again sending more magic missiles at the creature. (first level)
Morric takes another shot with his bow but it hits the wall of the cavern.
The two gnomes arbalest shots both hit this time, causing a good amount of damage to the large creature. It is blinded by a spell from Saya but seems to still be able to sense those on the same "level" as it is on the ground. (LEV and Iólinder need to make a second dex save as more blood sprays out of the creature:(5 fire damage if fail: DC12)
Zarbyns black beam of energy hits the creature and it seems to be temporarily off kilter from the spell (Made its save with an 18, disadvantage on its next attack roll)
Lev's glaive glances the creature as it turns to face him.
Amdaeng throws more darts but both miss (Its not a great round for the good guys!)
Then the Draklick slides out more from its cave (Yet still part of its body is within). Suddenly, it lunges out and wraps itself around Lev, ((nat 20 to hit/ but with disadvantage, 22 to hit/ Lev takes 8 bludgeoning damage and is grappled (Escape DC 15), until grapple ends, target is restrained). At the same time, it tries to bite Lev's head off (but due to disadvantage, it misses.)
More magic missiles pelt its thick hide. Then a ray of icy cold hits it from Lira, and the creature seems to recoil as the cold cracks through skin. (Double damage)
Iólinders spell is ineffective and he moves toward one of the arbalests (there are two and Pip and Bramble are shooting them, but I would say you could shoot a second bolt, or ask one of them to attack in a different way). (This triggers an opportunity attack from the creature who tries to bite the cleric: (19 to hit with disadvantage) but with his magical protection, the beast misses (Shield of faith helped!)
Back to the top! The creature is at about 1/4 health, Lev is grappled (Make a save for that and a dex save, creature is blinded, but can still "see" those on its same ground level with tremorsense)
Lira's eyes widen as the creature grabs Lev. She forces herself to stay calm and aim carefully, just as she would with her bow, and unleash more ice at the beast.
Bonus Action: Steady Aim
As a Bonus Action, you give yourself Advantage on your next attack roll on the current turn. You can use this feature only if you haven’t moved during this turn, and after you use it, your Speed is 0 until the end of the current turn.
Action: ray of frost to hit with advantage 18, damage 4
Vydar growls when Lev is grappled. He still feels extremely restricted in this fight. There's not enough room for him to get close with his sword, and even if he did he'd likely end up getting swatted like a fly by that thing (not that he'd admit that out loud). Plus he still can't use half his spells due to them either being ineffective or could possibly hurt his companions.
Frustrated, he sends another volley of missiles at the creature, then he uses his bracers of faith to cause a magical shield to surround Lev (Lev now has +2 AC).
Zarbyn will cast Shadow Blade and move to within 20 feet of the Draklisk to throw the blade at it.
22 to hit for 9 force damage.

Pip takes a dart from his belt and tosses it at the huge lizard. The dart does not penetrate. Saya similarly throws a dart. Her's seems to poke through its skin (4 poison damage)
Bramble shoots the mighty dwarves bolt: but misses this time as the huge bolt glances off its skull.
Zarbyn blade of shadows flies toward the creature and hits it for 9 force damage
Lev tries to break free but the creature is quite powerful and he can't seem to break out, his arms trapped at his sides.
The creature squeezes Lev again, trying to suck the life out of him: (21 to hit with advantage due to restrained condition: 13 bludgeoning damage) As some of its blood touches the restrained Lev, he sustains another 5 damage from its toxic innards. (OOC: Unless I'm wrong, Lev is at zero hp).
It then tries to bite Morric with its sharp teeth but odd mans new armor makes easy work of the attack.
Lira's beam of frost seems to make the creature quite unhappy as it almost recoils for the blow (8 damage)
Vydar again sends magical missiles at the creature, all hitting unerringly: 9 magic damage
Iolinder gives the dwarves arbalest a try and finds that it is set on a pivot point which makes aim easier: Being careful to not hit Lev, he penetrates the body of the creature at the point of the cave entrance for 16 damage.
Dex save: 4

Not wanting to get any closer than necessary Amdaeng grabbed her last two throwing blades and tossed them at the vast reptile.

Lev grits his teeth as he finds himself grappled by the creature, oddly calm even as it tries and fails to take his head.
Strength save to escape: 4 (critical fail)
He struggles futilely, finding himself in the worst possible position to fight back, he can't even use his glaive as his arms are pinned to his side.
Pip looks at Iolinder, "If you want to shoot this, I'll use my darts!"

(ooc--apologies... I've been traveling)
Iólinder will accept the arbelest... And attack...(I can't find the stats for it) as he's low on spell slots.
(Roll to hit with crossbow proficiency, damage: 4d8)
Amdaeng is out of throwing blades and doesn't really see her knees or fists doing anything much to the saurian form......she bides her time for now.
16 to hit for 16 damage.
