“Excellent work Rowland. Do you gentlemen think we should set a trap for these crawlers or proceed to the left. I can use my duplicity to try and pull them to a location of our choosing.”
"Bah, they be more big critters is all, might be we can lure them towards the bend so we can have some cover from the corners. I have me cover enough (he slaps his sentinel). Whatever the plan be let's be on with it. "
So I'll just walk in there and call them pieces of weed filth and threaten to leave their carcasses for their brethren to feed on and then they charge at me?
"Pops did you not listen to anything I said? I will send my duplicity down there. Use some thaumaturgy to get there attention and bring them down the hallway to a defensible ambush location for us. I can cast pass without trace to help keep us hidden as well. Since Elmo and Mikey cannot see I suggest pops you light up Benny as the signal to attack. This will give Elmo a chance to attack with his crossbow and Mikey a chance to do whatever it is that he does. I will activate Dawnbringer when the time comes to give us all the light we need. Anyone have any questions about this plan? It is a simple classic ambush. It should hopefully work out."
Telepathically to Dawnbringer
"Do you have any insight my Light? You must have seen far more battles than I. You tactical knowledge must be well beyond mine."
"Leon my boy! You'd make a better general than old gremryl here. Gougy and I will be ready. Elmo and mikey should be just around this corner, gougy and I on the opposite one... we will wait for your double to come running back then smash! We smite the buggers!"
Dawnbringer telepathically to all - "It is a sound strategy, indeed. These creatures aren't some mere fodder to be trifled with. They have a means of paralyzing that can truly cause worry. If we can keep your distances and we should have no problem dispatching these creatures."
"Everyone get into position. Dawnbringer says to try and keep you distance from these foes if possible. She says they had the ability to paralyze."
Once everyone is in position to ambush the crawlers, Leon cast invoke duplicity xxx feet into the hallway. Leon with cast thaumaturgy to make the sounds of foot steps and heavy breathing come from the duplicity. Once the duplicity is within 60 feet of the lead crawler, the duplicity cast toll the dead on the closet crawler (DC 16 wisdom save or 6 damage). The duplicity with then run and gun his way back to the ambush point.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Upon seeing rowlands attack, Gremryl in an attempt to further distract and draw attention to himself will charge towards the nearest one and yell
"time to meet your orc whore mother in the 7 level of the abyss foul beast!!"
Once upon him bonus action to ignite my mace and I'll attack the closet one.
That is the trigger for gougy to attack (my hope is that gougy can advantage on his attack since the opponent is focused on gremryl) mace is lit per the plan!
Rowland's first two attacks are swift and deal significant damage to the Carrion Crawler closest to the image of Leon in the agreed upon ambush spot. The third attack misses the intended target.
Gremryl rushes the Carrion Crawler that has two of Rowland's arrows sticking out from his body. Moradin's Benevolence ignites with the righteous green flames attuned to the Paladin's divine power. As he draws near, Gougy charges and attacks with Bite, sinking his teeth into the Carrion Crawler's flesh viciously (No advantage given). Gremryl's next attacks are crushing blows dealing major damage to the enemy, visibly noted with the recoil of its body in response to the attacks. (Shield Shove not permitted since Gremryl's Bonus Action has already been used to ignite the flames of his weapon).
The wounds are too great for the Carrion Crawler to sustain and it falls to the side, lifeless after a quiver of nerve bundles' last movements..
When Elmo sees Benny's light in the adjacent tunnel he aims his crossbow at carrion crawler 2 and holds his action until either the carrion crawler moves towards Elmo, or it attacks a team mate. If it attacks a team mate, my attack with have sneak dmg. If the carrion attacks Elmo, then he will use his held action (no sneak damage) and use his skirmisher ability as a reaction to avoid the carrion crawler.

He then ducks back behind the corner and stealths.
Mikey is going to move up and attack the other target. I get two regular attacks, a bonus attack with my unarmed strike, and I'll burn a ki point for 2 more attacks.

Ever blunt:

Since we are all healed up, Mikey wants to take on the crawlers.
So I'll just walk in there and call them pieces of weed filth and threaten to leave their carcasses for their brethren to feed on and then they charge at me?
