"Great leaping lizards! It's a bloody giant snakebeast!" Bob can't help but cry out as he scrambles backwards, only keeping his balance thanks to his sturdy, wideset frame. With his concentration thoroughly broken his spell fizzles out.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Gimble:
With the crowd of people between him and the monster, Gimble flicks his hand and his magic takes hold, sucking the heat from around the grick and attempting to slow its reactions.
Frostbite: DC 13 Constitution Save or Disadvantage on next attack and 5 Cold damage.

Bob feels compelled to stand firm despite his mind telling him to run. He draws his scimitar and drops into a low crouch, shield raised. Taking the Dodge action.
Toi strikes the Grick but the Grick moves just in time, making Toi's attack a glancing blow and doing no damage.
The Grick's tries to attack its main target, Bob.

The grick really seems to have caught everyone a little flat footed here. Gillain misses twice, Bob has gotten grabbed, Now Tio seems to miss twice too...
Everything seems to slow down around Gillain. She’s seeing everything in horrifyingly-detailed, slow-motion, as she struggles to hold her dual-mind together and focussed.
She feels an energy surround her, and penetrate through her, and feels like it might erupt from within, but as she readjusts herself to act, she can see the grick moving to act itself. She won’t be quick enough!........
((Gillain comes after the grick, and what it does will impact what she does in return, so I’ll post after it’s acted))
Bob just continues to struggle, cursing in Dwarvish and Common and even throwing in a few childish semi-swear words like "darn" and "frick" for good measure.
Toistrikes at the Grick. The movement of the Grick and Bob's flailing create a harder target for the Warforged monk and both Toi's attacks miss.
The Grick, focused on Bob, the meal in its grasp, and attempts to snap at Bob with its beak. Save: 4 Hit: 4 (miss) Frost covers the Grick causing it to shiver and during the body convulsion, it snaps its beak and misses Bob.
Gimble casts Frostbite again and causes another layer of frost to form on the Grick.

Bob feels compelled to stand firm despite his mind telling him to run. He draws his scimitar and drops into a low crouch, shield raised. Taking the Dodge action.
If Gillain can reach the creature and get into melee, she’ll do that and get as much between it and Bob as she can.
As she dashes over, she draws her spear. She tries to stab the thing and then bash it too.

Adding ‘divine smite’ to Gillain’s critical hit, for an additional 7 radiant damage.
