Kaliban sizes up the shambling threat, moves slightly and tries to bring it low. Then, as the thing falls... he kicks it hard.
Emerald?
Cast spider climb and climb the mast for some range support
One Zombie moves accross to threaten Nico.
Another attacks Kalaban
One attacks Capricia
Two move and attack Manny
Whalebone Pilk double moves across to your ship.
Kaliban
Cici
Nico
"Die again, Scurvy Dog!" Ci Ci cries, as she calls down another bolt of lightning on Pilk.
Deciding to rely on the Greater Hide from undead Nico takes a shot at the approaching Zombie and troubles no one.
He maintains the inspire courage.
The half-orc kicks and hammer-fist strikes at the fallen zombie then takes a step.
Manny darts backwards.
Capricia's frown deepens; then she hacks at the zombie interposed between herself and Cap'n Pilk. As good as her last hack was, this one is horrendously bad.
for
Emmy supposedly has taken her turn,
One zombie moves 5' and attacks Nico
Two move across
One attacks Manny
Two attack Capricia
Pilk throws his harpoon at Kaliban
The ship lurches and as Pilk's harpoon flies wide of the half-orc, Kaliban steps up. Pushing his luck, he attempts to trip the zombie between himself and his own captain.
As it falls, Kaliban roughly grabs and tosses it between himself and Pilk. Kicking it for good measure.

you hit alright. And it ia now prone?

Ci Ci calls down another lightning bolt on Captain Pilk.

With that Pilk and the zombies dissolve into the mist.
I will do xp in the morning.
Manny clutches his hands to his ears. Whoa! Whazzat? Did gawdz burninate Pilk?
Capricia recovers her balance--and composure--after her terrible sword swipe and raises her weapon to the sky. "Well done, brothers and sisters of the sea! This day we not only saved our own necks, but we also made the Fever Sea a bit less dangerous for all the other ships that traverse these waters, be they our brethren or our prey!"
After a bit of a dramatic pause, the captain adds, "Let's loot and plunder this vessel before she takes after her old captain and crew and just dissipates into the night, eh?"
Capricia's hit by a sudden doubt and quickly turns to her most knowledgeable advisors and quietly asks them, "That'll be safe, right? Seems to me I recall a story--perhaps nothing more than a tall tale--about a band of pirates who stole some cursed treasure and became undead at night. I believe that tale was called 'Curse of the Purple Amethyst' or something like that...."
XP=800 each.
The ship is filled with skulls of condemned souls. You dind 4 points of plunder in the ships hoard.
Kaliban looks around... Are they gone for good?
Who all is going into the hold to get the plunder?
Being one of the larger and stronger of the crew, suited for hauling... Kaliban joins the Captain.
Manny has no fear and heads in as well.
Arising from the skulls in the hull are 4 more zombies.
Two attack Capricia
One attacks Manny
One attacks kaliban
Missed me! Manny 5' steps to flank with Capricia and stab stabs
"Zombies still attacking even if the Captain is dead?" Nico ponders.
Again wracking his brains for anything that might be keeping thing going?
"It's never easy, is it?" the captain growls as she brings her falcata to bear against the new group of undead sailors.

[dice=Knowledge Religion for Undead] 1d20 + 6;
[dice=Knowledge Arcana for magic] 1d20 + 7;
These things seem slow and mindless, perfect for Kaliban's preferred tactic.
He tries to trip the zombie before him and place it between himself and Manny, he himself taking its place.
"If it wasn't Pilk keeping the zombies going, it's gotta be the ship, or something on it!" Ci Ci cries out. "Get back aboard the Grace and let's burn the whole damn thing!"
There have countless bar room shanties and songs regarding Whalebone Pilk and his cursed ship. Nico chops through them frantically, trying to find the weakness.
Maybe something Ci Ci shouted?
Burn the ship? Really? Oh boy oh boy!

Let's just burn it anyway!
You going to get your plunder first> 4 points is a LOT of plunder!
Since the Zombies are being well handled by the officers Nico begins transferring as much Plunder to the Queens grace as he can in the time available.
"lads & Ladies, get the loot!" He yells to the crew.
Reluctantly the entire crew will move the plunder over to your ship's hold.
No one going to try aid another besides Capricia?
