You could be sure the "stalagmite" acknowledged your presence. Leon's magical bolts left some "scars" on it's surface but the rest of the attacks - even Bernard's mighty shot, were deflected. In response to the movement in your corner, four tendrils shot at once in your direction, easily covering the distance:
vs Ramious 23
vs Leon 19
vs Alyssa 17
vs Bernard 16
Leon and Bernard were fast enough to avoid the coils but Ramious and Alyssa were not that lucky. The stony ropes grasped brave adventurers and begun to pull towards the river.
Alyssa ended up at the bank on the other side of the river, while Ramious was lifted up and jerked to the creature's mouth:
“Whuuu-ahh!” Alyssa’s eyes would go wide as she’s grappled and pulled to the other side of the bank. Trying not to let initial panic sink in, she’ll take a breath, trying her most calm attempt at breaking out, considering the situation.
Ramious lets out a guttural roar as the creature tears into him. He flies into a rage and tries to pull the things stringy appendage away from himself.

Leon raises his hand again, sending four magic missiles bursting forth to strike the strange creature. (Using my 2nd level slot I got back during our short rest, I just don't know how to add it back in for a short rest so it didn't show up.)
Bernard tilts his head to the side quick causing several popping noises. His face in a scowl he riles up his tiny beetles. Hundreds came out from under the opening in his clothing. He took a few steps and then raised his bow directing them to follow his will. Finally he released his shot with a torrent beetles on its trail.
Move: moves to put the shortest distance the creature and the river in line with Bernard.
Bonus action: activate gathered storm
Action: Attack creature. If hit, it will be pulled 5 feet towards Bernard which should put it in the river.
(Normally pressing that button "Short rest" and then confirming you are taking the rest should be enough to re-set everything re-settable. But with glitches here you never know)
And again, a small cloud of rock debris flew from the wounded "stalagmite" where force bolts penetrated the stone skin, but Bernard's arrow did not even scratched the surface.
Heavily wounded Ramious wrestled his way out and the monster dropped tiefling into the ice-cold stream, that immediately pulled him away. Alyssa managed to wiggle out of the rocky hug as well, but now she was face-to-face with that cave terror.
Four new tendrils shoot from the monster:
vs Ramious 12
vs Leon 15
vs Alyssa 18
vs Bernard 16
The current was too strong and Stalagmite missed (Ramious - DC 10 Strength (Athletics) check to get out of the stream)
Leon - the main (and the only) offender of the beast, was still on a high alert and avoided the tendril.
Unfortunately, Alyssa was standing too close to the creature for it to miss, another "stone rope" coiled around her.
Bernard was too concentrated on his shots to dodge the attack, the tendril wrapped around him and pulled over the stream towards the mouth suddenly opened on the side.
Attack: 14 Damage: 27
That was a mistake - the movement was too fast and bite missed.

Bernard was surprised st the tendril, though he shouldn't be having seen it happen to the others. He just managed to put his hand up and stop himself from being crushed on. With what leverage he could muster he tried to breakfree.
(Alyssa sure can - and probably should - use the shield if it helps. If she is using "Shield" - action for this turn, please. Remember, she is by the monster)
This time Alyssa would put up a hand, successfully shielding herself from becoming grappled this time. Realizing how close she was to the creature, the elf will grit her teeth, hold out her arms and fire off her magical darts while she had an opening.
Reaction: Shield Attack: Magic Missile lvl 2 Darts: 4 | 2 | 3 | 3 Ready special action: Portent use 9 for the next grapple attack on Alyssa
(For Leon to get to melee, he would need to cross the river. Possible, but Athletic check DC10 (not terribly important, since attack is inevitable anywhere).
The monster ignored attempts to pierce his skin with mere iron, but tendrils were thrown nevertheless:
vs Ramious 17
vs Leon 20
vs Alyssa 16
Though, this time Stalagmite did not have to rill his prey, and already had a ready snack at his disposal: already helplessly bound Bernard.
Bite vs Bernard: Attack: 25 Damage: 18 This time the monster did not miss - blood covered perfectly white "stalagmite" surface and Bernard's armour - the wound was horrible.
Ramious this time was well prepared and did not allow the tendril anywhere near him, but Leon was caught. Alyssa - already caught - used her magic to force the tendril to simply fall flat.
4 Initiative if you want it. Yes, Ramious throws the spear! Unscratched!? Well, it was a piss poor throw...so...ya.

Leon strides in, drawing his greatsword. He lashes out at the thing with a powerful blow.
Attack: 9 Damage: 13
His blow bouncing harmlessly off the thing's stone-like skin.
Ramious uses his strong arms, flapping wings, and boiling anger to try and propel himself from the water. 20
He lands on the same side of the water as the spike thing, his magical rapier ripped free from it's sheath as he gets ready to lay into the creature.
