Kyle tries to get on the boat.

Kyle tries to get on the boat.

The human captain points at shouts something at you, but his half-missing jaw makes it come out as more of a loud grumble. The goblins turn on you, and only you.
Initiative time! Everyone please post whether you are or are not joining combat. Initiative will be rolled as soon as everyone has posted.

[kj1225]

I think I'll be joining it.

[ShadowHammer]

I'll join too. Note that I will be asleep for he next several hours, so I'll post my first combat action now:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Watch as the goblins turn towards Kyle.
Well, looks like someone's kicked the hornets' nest. Might as well join in the fun!
The goblins who are carrying the merchant have probably walked a few feet away by now, so target the nearest one's heart/general chest area with a powerfully thrown javelin, also using hidden attack (I forget what that last power is actually called, but it's close to hidden attack).

If the goblins drop the merchant when they turn to attack Kyle, just throw the javelin at the nearest one to him.

[Sarrak]

Completely understanding that zombies are beyond any reasoning, Kerr'tan was still unsure about the whole battle-thing. It looked not quite right and, well, he didn't see a point in destroying something long, long dead. Instead, he moved into the fray to protect merchant.

((Are there any other townspeople, or he was the only unfortunate one?))

((Are there any other townspeople, or he was the only unfortunate one?))

He's the only one you can see.

[Dwarmin]

Tali rubbed her chin, thinking back to her studies. She had studied many strange foes, Dragons in particular, but she tried to recall some other lessons...perhaps that weekend course she took on Dragon zombies...

Action: Lore check! Bool!

Also, I'll be joining the combat

[sjm9876]

Join combat

Charge nearest zombie, trying to use follow through if possible. (In case I'm not here when combat starts.)

T'skrat laughed at the zombies, remembering a tribe of goblins he had slain in the past.
'Green ssssskinssss. And dead. Dead flesssh cutssssss easssy.'

[Sirus]

From the shadows of a nearby alley, a woman dressed in a ragged longcoat and wearing a full-brimmed hat watched the undead goblins at work. When it looked like a fight would erupt, she grinned and checked her pistols to be sure they were ready to go.

Joining the fight!

[AlleeCat]

Action: Lore check! Bool!

Lore - Undead (-1): 4 < 7
Well, from your dragon zombie course, you remember that dragons can't actually become undead. It was more of a theoretical course.
You also realize that these are ghouls. Usually ghouls are created on accident, or as a byproduct of another spell. They're easily controlled through magic, and can serve as a fairly quick and easy source of muscle.

[scapheap]

Joining the fight, Jane ponder if undead are immune to mind magics(like Distracting Visions)Lore roll=8<12. she can't think of anything and cast it(Distracting Visions) to find out.

[Dwarmin]

Tali scoffs.

"Aye, these ain't even proper undead. Buncha runty ghouls! No proper necromancer's weapons these, probably some weird magical calamity. Make sure ya count every head lads-we're gonna have ter burn the whole bunch when we're through." She comment to whomevers nearby.

Action: Set up somewhere covered on the dock and start potshotting Ghoulies with my blackpowder rifle. Aim for the one with the big scythe-staff first.

[AlleeCat]

Initiative has been rolled!

Spoiler: Turn order (click to show/hide)

Janiries: +6 (CRIT)
Tali: +6
Garashn: +5
Jane: +2
Kerr'tan: +2
Headtaker Ghoul: +2
T'skrat: +1
Kyle: +0
Ghouls: -2

Seven ghouls drop their hostage and turn to face Kyle. The captain is not part of this fight, instead, he seems to just point and growl unintelligible orders, moving not unlike a marionette on strings.
Please post actions if you have not already. Also, I may have forgotten someone in the initiative rolls. Please speak up if you don't see your name on the list.

[kj1225]

Whip the nearest ghoul in the sword arm.

[Sirus]

"BANZAI!"

Janiries runs up to the nearest ghoul and, using Reason, quick-draws and attempts to shoot the ghoul's head off (aimed attack). If that doesn't work (and if she can do so), quick-draw and attack with the cutlass. Remember that Janiries is ambidextrous and thus doesn't suffer penalties from having a weapon in each hand.
