Attack the ghoul that just attacked me! Cutlass, of course.
Swashbuckler: 3 < 9

You swing at the ghoul's neck and its head flies off, rolling off the pier and landing in the water with a faint splash. Three remain.
Reload!
knockdown attack
Rogue: 8 < 11

You slam into the Headtaker and send him tumbling down, off the pier. The rest of the ghouls seem to snap out of their stumbling demeanor and hiss at you.
Chill wind!
Arcane Theory - Elemental: 2 (CRIT) < 9
You freeze a ghoul solid and it breaks apart into little frozen chunks. Two ghouls are left standing.

slay his attacker
Barbarian: 10 > 9
You charge and swing at the bound ghoul near Kyle, but unfortunately, you miss.
Kyle gives the whip a sharp tug to try and remove the goul's leg.
Rogue: 5 < 7
You pull off the ghoul's foot, but it also manages to get up and limp onto the boat, hissing feebly at you from the deck.
Suddenly, a large and obviously undead ogre marches out from below decks, clad in crude leather armor. It looks to be in about the same shape as the Headtaker was, but its rippling (and in some places, exposed) muscles tell you that this ghoul is going to be a lot tougher than its predecessors. As soon as it steps off the creaking gangplank, the captain and surviving ghoul pull the plank onto the ship, and as if by magic, the boat begins to drift away.
Janiries: +6 (CRIT)
Tali: +6
Garashn: +5
Jane: +2
Kerr'tan: +2
T'skrat: +1
Kyle: +0
Hideous Troll: -1
The ogre makes an unearthly roar, fresh blood flying from its decrepit lips, and charges straight for T'skrat, swinging wildly in a berserk rage!
{ROLL}
T'skrat - Barbarian: 7 < 9
T'skrat - SAVE: 7 < 12
T'skrat fails to dodge the ogre's
power punch, and its fist slams into his gut, leaving him dazed and
scathed, and damaging his lower body armor by 1. However, he is still able to maintain his balance, despite having the wind knocked out of him.
