The battle joined
Rook's arrow glances off the wave. Morwyn gives orders and then attacks the carefully hung boarding nets opening a nice gap. The zombie whale rises until the upper half is visible above the water. It is a gruesome sight with one eye rotted away. Crabs are eating the rotting eyeball. The flesh is gray and hanging loosely in several places. A swivel gun booms and a ball can be seen striking the rubbery undead flesh of the whale. At almost the same time a bolt of lightning streaks from the rail to strike whale in the head. The peal of thunder joins the echo of the cannon blast. Some sailors get off crossbow shots and a ballista fires, but all fail to penetrate the whale hide. The creature briefly drops under the water again and then rises high out of the water to crash its jaw upon the deck. The ship lists violently. (Balance check DC 12 or slide across the deck. If you fail you may drop anything held and grab on to avoid sliding.) The whale heaves violently and regurgitates a stream of undead sailors, giant undead hermit crabs, one half digested zombie giant squid and several fish--live, dead and undead fish. Then it slips off the side of the ship and beneath the waves. The various undead begin ripping their way through the boarding nets aided by the gap.
