As soon as he sees the first Zombie shambling out of the grass, Delimbiyra shouts "We're under attack!" hoping that would wake and alert the others. He then fires a bolt at the nearest Zombie.
Argh, I just realised that the damage die now shows as a d20 after I edited the post... It was a d10 before and I did roll a 1 for a total damage of 4.

Your crossbow bolt hits the first zombie square in the chest. It hesitates, but keeps on coming. Sunny wakes and springs into action. She hits a second zombie with a claw and a bite, stopping it in its tracks. The zombie hits back hard but does little damage. The one on Delimbiyra attacks. Attack: 23 Damage: 12
(not sure about combat order, or if the others are awake, when it's his turn again and people are still sleeping:)
Delimbiyra shouts louder with anger in his voice, "Get up! Attack!", drops his Crossbow and draws the rapier. Then he attacks (if possible without an opportunity attack, the zombie Sunny fights to get sneak attack) a zombie with the rapier, followed by taking a deep breath during a short stand off (BA: Second Wind).
(meant to say, that he brings the sneak attack only if it is possible without causing an attack of opportunity, that is if Sunny's Zombie is within range without leaving his own zombie's range. I'm too afraid to edit the post because I might disturb the rolls.)
Snapjaw awakens and spends his turn getting up and retrieving a large club he saw in the nearby bushes. Gambi wakes up and throws a couple of daggers from the prone position, gaining sneak attack. His first dagger hits, doing considerable damage to the third zombie. Sunny attacks the zombie on her: Attack: 11 Damage: 5, dropping him to the ground. Delimbiyra, realizing a sneak attack on the other zombie would provoke an attack of opportunity, concentrates on the one in front of him and drops it. The one zombie left attacks Snapjaw: Attack: 13 Damage: 6, who counters the attack with his club and a bite: Attack: 16 Damage: 3 Bite Attack: 23 Damage: 6. Gambi pulls out his sword and stands up while Sunny attacks the third zombie: Attack: 20 Damage: 7.

"They are getting back up!", Delimbiyra shouts in disbelieve. He attacks the zombie in front of him (continuing to look out for a sneak attack opportunity if one present itself) .
(just let me know if I'm jumping the gun and get way ahead of myself, not sure how organised you wish to keep the encounter.)
"Well, then let's try that! Go ahead, I'll try to get this one here to the fire place," he calls to Sunny and Snapjaw. On his next turn, Delimbiyra will attempt to grapple 'his' Zombie and, if successful, drag him onto the campfire.
(Well, but without even dropping a line?? I suppose I will have to get used to this kind of play... Anyway, please, let me know how and if we continue.)
Initiative: 4
I wanted to say that the attack and the alarm is ready should anything show itself. Would that trigger now?

Yes, go ahead with your first attack and sound the alarm.

Attack: 23 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

I don't know what happened, the attack roll was a 7 and the damage dice couldn't be parsed...
So attack roll total (7+7) would be 14 and, if it hits, damage is 4.
How far away are they?

Zombie 1:17
Zombie 2:18
The two defeated zombies begin to stand back up.
"Where's Alvis?!" Gambi hollers as he moves to attack a zombie.
"They are getting back up!", Delimbiyra shouts in disbelieve. He attacks the zombie in front of him (continuing to look out for a sneak attack opportunity if one present itself) .
Attack: 18 Damage: 9

Snapjaw bangs his zombie on the head to make sure it stays down. "Fire only good thing beat zombies forever," he says in his pidgin common.
"Should we just throw them onto the campfire? Would that work?", asks Delimbiyra.

"Yesss," Snapjaw says.
(just let me know if I'm jumping the gun and get way ahead of myself, not sure how organised you wish to keep the encounter.)

(I just noticed that Alvis disappeared from the campaign. What happened? Why is everyone dropping out?)

I don't know. They don't want to play for some reason. The campaign is not what they expected. They don't like my DMing. There's no telling.
(Well, but without even dropping a line?? I suppose I will have to get used to this kind of play... Anyway, please, let me know how and if we continue.)

I think I made it too difficult for level one characters. I am going to try this again with level five characters. You are welcome to join.
I'm happy to try if you think it would be best with level 5. That's a steep increase. Though, I don't know what's coming.
