With a short shriek, Seria calms herself and examines the severed leg further to see what may have caused it.

Johan springs to the damsel in distress, and after making sure she's ok, helps examine the leg.

Johan picks up the soggy leg and examines it closely. Out of the water, the stench of decaying flesh is strong. He briefly looks it over and determines that it was severed by a single cut. There is evidence of something large feeding from the calf of the leg.
Suddenly, you all hear a splash from somewhere in the darkness of the hold. The floor beneath your feet vibrates slightly from numerous objects tapping on the wood. Dark, rounded shapes emerge from the water and the air is filled with the sound of snapping pincher's.

Johan draws his blade, and if he thinks he sees where the sound is coming from he will attack, or potentialy just thrust down at it.

Whisper curses under her breath and flings a hand out, firing off a pair of whining energy bolts into the ship's hold to strike one of the creatures!

Drawing her dagger from its scabbard, Seria prepares herself defensively and hopes to fend off any attacks.

You easily identify the creatures as monstrous crabs. Built like their smaller cousins, these crabs are several orders of magnitude too large. Their claws are strong and they tend to latch on to their prey. Once the prey is held by the claws they shift their prey to their mouths to feed.
You also realize that octopi feed on crabs in the wild, which is likely why Seeqir sensed food somewhere nearby. You sense his presence outside the hull, investigating the area around the hole.
You still have an action left, recognizing what they are is a free action.

The creatures move quickly through the water leaving wakes behind them as they rush in. In the darkness you can hear the clacking of mandibles and the snapping of pinchers. When they reach the party, the light from the stairs above reveals creatures that look like giant crabs. Each is the size of a big dog. You can see four closeby but with all the noise and commontion in the water you can't tell if there are any more nearby. One attacks Whisper by reaching up out of the water and grabbing on to her leg. Two more crabs attack Johan, one latching on to his leg and another reaching up to snag his arm. Their claws crush and tear at his limbs. The fourth crab attacks Seria but she manages to parry its claws away.

"If this works, don't strike out at the crabs that back off," Midian mutters.
Midian raises his arms, waving them in an odd approximation of the crabs own claws. At the same time, he begins clicking and whistling, a low hum and an unseen charge seeming to fill the room as he does so.
[sblock=OOC]Casting Animal Trance to try to fascinate some or all of the critters. Since they're monstrous rather than dire, I don't think they get a saving throw, but I'm not sure[/sblock]

With a cry of revulsion, Whisper yanks her ankle free of the nasty claw and sends a pair of magic missiles at the attacker for its trouble!
So great is her surprise and disgust at being grabbed by the sopping appendage that she almost chokes on the words of her spell, trying to not to give it another chance to grab her. She manages, barely, to remember the final word just in the nick of time, and the blasts of force temporarily cast the inside of the hull in glaring blue light!
