Hamith calls on the power of the Inheritor, issuing forth a silent prayer in his mind. Allow me the strength, as you once did. Aroden to you, you to me. There is always light behind the clouds, day beneath the night.
Warmth flows down through his body, suffusing his muscles with power, skill. He jabs at the creature with his spear through the murky water with two powerful thrusts.
Mechanics:
Swift Action
Activate smite evil on yellow
Full Round Action
Full attack yellow!
+1 cold iron spear, inspire, smite evil, haste, power attack (furious focus):1d20 + 11 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 35 DMG (magic, piercing), smite evil, inspire:1d8 + 11 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 5 + 2 = 21+5 more if it hits for being undead.
Though Illuthion's magical blade seems to deal full damage to the incorporeal the water itself seems to slow down the large sword. Half damage due to slashing in underwater combat.
Olender continues to flail about as her own cold iron blade passes harmlessly through the undead.
Enora pulls out a scroll and continues to shield herself further from attacks as Hamith jabs his spear into the yellow mass, twice poking holes in the undead shadow. Each damage is halved due to incorporeal.
Nix's freedom of movement and magical claws seem to be doing the trick as they slowly whittle away at the haze. The green undead quickly dissipates back into the dark waters.
Blackjack turns his own wrath to the red eyes glaring back at him as his nodache stabs into being.
Red Incorporeal Touch vs Nix TCH AC 15:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 Damage:1d8 ⇒ 6 DC 16 Fort save or 2 negative levels.
Yellow Incorporeal Touch vs Oleander TCH AC 13:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28 Damage:1d8 ⇒ 5 DC 16 Fort save or 2 negative levels.
Nix and Oleander both feel the cold firm grasp wrap around their souls.

"arrghh cries Oleander, pulling back from the horrible ghost as she does so.
Uses a withdraw action to start headng back to get her bow
"I'm useless here without my bow. Water will slow the arrows, but the magic might at least do something."
Is the damage from the ghosts negative energy damage? If so, I have resist negative energy 10 from my deathless armor that I didn't consider until now.

Nix full attacks red unless it goes down before his turn, in which case he will move into melee with the other ghost and make a single bite attack.

"Well, it at least looks like we are winning." he says while trying to dodge out of the way of the ghost's touch.
No damage is specified Nix. Incorporeal Touch. Damage + energy drain
Oleander swims back, just out of reach as Enora causes several images to burst from her body.
Hamith's magical spear rips the ghastly being to shreds as it dissipates once more. Nix and Blackjack easily remove the second undead and the room becomes dark and ominous once more.

Oleander swims back to retrieve her magical bow. One under the water she tries firing a couple of arrows to get used to the change under water.
Illuthion ignores the cries for alacrity, turning instead to Enora, their halfling master of the arcane. "You gonna be ok? Stick close to me. I'll get you through this shizzle."
This room is completely submerged and devoid of anything of value or interest. Its only defining feature is a hole in the center of the floor, which leads to the armory of the Vaydren’s Might.
Blackjack circles around into the Iron Tide's Food Storage. This room sits empty. Stairs leading up hug the southeast wall, peeking up the stairs he finds yet another lightless, submerged room.

The striped gray areas are inaccessible and blocked as that is where the Iron Tide ship is crashed into it per the small picture on the map.
One, by one the group swims down from the Iron Tide and into the Vaydren Might's lower deck. The hole in the hull of the Iron Tide opens into this room. The room contains weapons of all sorts, but they have lain rusting in the Flotsam Graveyard for just over a century and are no longer serviceable. The room is dark and completely submerged in water. A hole yawns in the side of the hull to the south and west of the middle mast, torn open when Vaydren—an inexperienced navigator—piloted the ship over a chunk of debris littering the Flotsam Graveyard during the ill-fated battle. It was not long until the ship lay with the others at the bottom of Absalom’s harbor.
Poking around in the rusty weapons are a pair of hunchbacked, green-skinned humanoids that have a wide, frog-like head but a mouth more akin to that of a toothy fish. Lazily swimming around them are their large moray eel pets.
Bubbles rise from the frog-like creature's gills as the point to the intruders. The eels whip through the water with insane speed at the group. Their bodies leap out at Blackjack and Nix.
One of the eels manages to catch Blackjack by surprise, just as he swims down into the dark chamber the eel bites into his neck. Fresh blood begins to pool into the water as he fights for his life, managing to keep the eel from wrapping itself around him.
Nix wasn't as fortunate as the eel bites his hand and wraps tightly around his body.
Nix uses the Liberating Command to attempt to escape artist his way out of the eel's grasp.
Escape Artist:1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34 and he likely succeeds, either way, he is full attacking any eel in melee, starting with the one that grabbed him.
I don't see any particular buffs running right now, so these are just base numbers.

Oleander fires at the pink eel, cursing as the water slows her arrows down.

Oleander, sped by magic, now unleashes a new barrage of shots - this time at the frog-thing.

Hamith whispers another short prayer to the Inheritor and peers at the frog-like creature attacking him. Let me see your heart, creature.
Detect evil as a move action on red. If it is evil Hamith will attack it activating smite evil, if not, and yellow is still alive, Hamith will attempt to finish off the eel. If yellow is dead and red is not evil, Hamith will attack red without smite evil.
He brandishes his magic spear, the celestial spirit flowing around it amidst the dark currents. He jabs out, trying to eliminate his enemy.
+1 spear, power attack (furious focus), haste:1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 24+4 to hit if smite evil is active. DMG (magic, piercing):1d8 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19+5 to damage if smite evil is active, or double if undead or an evil outsider.
+1 spear, power attack, haste:1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 14+4 to hit if smite evil is active. DMG (magic, piercing):1d8 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13+5 to damage if smite evil is active, or double if undead or an evil outsider.
Enora pulls out her wand and tries to stem the flow of blood coming from Nix as Oleander switches her aim to the frog-like creature as the Pathfinder's backs are against the wall.
Only a single arrow finds its mark as the dark waters are not kind to Oldeander's bow.
Blackjack shouts his battlecry in a last ditch effort, should he fall in combat. He slashes his blade into the eel, twice. His strokes leave long slits through the creature's body as they flap in the water like a shredded flag in the wind.
Nix also fights for his own life as he claws and bites the wounded eel. Grabbing it by both hands Nix rips the eel in half, splitting its body enough that it merely floats back into the ocean. It took all of your attacks to take it out.
Illuthion swims in with his bastard sword and swings it at the frog-like creature.
Illuthion's muscles bulge as he swings his sword with everything he has. The large blade crashes into the aquatic foe, striking a vital organ. Unfortunately the water slows most of teh force behind the blow.
Hamith does indeed sense great evil coming from this strange creature and focuses down on smiting it from this world. Both jabs stab into the creature's backside.
Enraged that its pet was shredded the second frog-like foe jets in, using it's fins to speed it through the waters and stabs at Nix with it's trident.
The trident pierces Nix's chest, collapsing his lung as he gasps for breath. Meanwhile the red-tinted frog-like creature thrashes about in pain as it's trident stabs into the water, it's clawed hand and teeth bite in all directions as it closes in on Oleander, trapping her against the wall.
Trident vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18 Trident vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 Claw 1 vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22 Damage:1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Claw 2 vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 Bite 1 vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 Bite 2 vs Oleander AC 20:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Only a single claw manages to sneak through Oleander's defenses as she holds the creature off with her bow.
The eel bites right into Blackjack's face as it's body wraps tightly around the pirate, feeling the body go limp the Eel releases the man and he floats in the water, unconscious and dying.
Enora sends a small red bead through the water. It slowly pulses like some sort of beacon, before it suddenly explodes. Though what follows isn't flames, but rather superheated steam that severely burns all within the immediate area.
Eel Reflex DC 20:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31 Green Frog creature DC 20:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
The pair aren't able to escape the superheated water as it boils around them, though Blackjack manages to stabilize.
Nix claws and scraps his way into the frog-like creature, but still doesn't manage to bring it down.

Oleander risks the wrath of the red frog as she unloads on him at point blank range.

Bite 2 vs Hamith AC 26:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
The trident stabs into Nix's neck, leaving him gurgling on his own blood as his eyes roll into the back of his head. Hamith attempts to help by grabbing him and ends up getting his hand bit.
The frog-like creature gives a small tone, within the water and points to Hamith, commanding the eel to go after the larger man.
Purple Bite vs Hamith AC 22:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
The eel misses it's prey as it coils through the floating Blackjack.

"Thanks Enora!
Knowing there was only one way this was likely to end, Oleander continued her point blank assault on the frog-creature.
If it drops early, later shots will go onto the other frog I'm guessing from the above that three of those are likely to hit, I'll roll the forth as well, just in case.
Illuthion considers his options, and none of them are good.
Gotta get someone back into the fight. Take a deep breath, he focuses on his emotions. Why do I have to do everything? Just wanna take a step back and relax, leave this choochery to others.
