Bosko has to just focus on the skeleton in front of him, he can't help anyone else if he is dead. He sweeps his right arm up in a vicious upper cut, the claws on his glinting as he does so.
He follows that up with a another slash of his left claw, coming in from a wide angle to take the nearest skeleton side on.
"How all doing?", he calls out. "Looking not so good", he adds looking around the ship at the carnage. A low growl escapes his throat as he realises his failure to block the skeletons from boarding had led to a few some dead sailors.
Movement: None Action: Attack with Bear Claw: 16+5=21, Damage: 3+3=6 BonusAction: Attack with Bear Claw: 14+5=19, Damage: 3+3=6
Swiping up with his right and them left arms, the blades of the bear claws rip apart the skeleton's facial and cranial bones. Bosko's "one-two" strike completely demolishes the undead creature's entire skull, and the now lifeless body of old bones crashes to the deck as the bugbear eliminates yet another one of the skeletal pirates.
Lazarus would hold a hand over his mouth as he sees the zombie-like creature and upon seeing the entrails and the sudden catch of sea water hitting his nose, he would hold back a gag and look around to find another skeleton. They didn't look nearly as vomit inducing as that thing and he would take the time to keep his hand over his mouth as he would move toward another skeleton and thrust his rapier once more at the head of one of the three that was near Sunita. Lazarus would yell over to Bosko
"I mean, I think we are not horrible! That has to count for something! Ain't that right Sunita? You're doin a swell job yourself!" He would let magic flow into his words once more as he would aim to inspire her just a bit as her earlier outburst seemed to be very... emotional and he wanted to make sure that at the very least, his acquaintances would make it to see another day.

"I am good for now, but they keep coming. We need to push those planks or shoot their captain I think..." Markus points at the pirate captain and aims with his staff. Markus tries to hit a couple of minions between him and the captain. The tip of the staff glows bright green and a stream of acid emanates from it.
Rushing over to off aid to his companion near the right plank, Lazarus finds one of the skeletons that rushed past her on the deck and rams the tip of his blade right into the undead creature's eye socket. Having already endured the sharp end of Sunita's sword once, the firbolg's attack is enough to steal whatever unnatural life it left in its animated corpse body. It slumps to the deck, now nothing more than a twisted pile of very old bones.
Meanwhile, Markus aims his staff at the ghostly pirate captain and casts his attack spell. The jet of acid hits it in the right thigh and begins to burn a hold in the creature's spectral flesh.
Gaze swiveling between the ghostly pirate attacking their captain and zombies joining the skeletons about to swarm onto their ship, Alyndra called out, "I vote pushing planks!"And without a second's hesitation she moves to the closest plank to her. Green eyes focused on it as she adjusted its density before grimacing at the awful stench. Screwing up her face as she attempted to heave the plank. "Someone help me!"Knowing her own weakness but knowing that she had to try and that considering her knack for manipulating gravity she was likely the best choice, though hopefully someone with more strength than a kitten would help her.

((Given that Alyndra has a high initiative roll, I’ll allow anyone this round to edit their round this turn if they want to help her push one of the planks.))
With her rallying cry, Alyndra rushes over and attempts to push the middle plank away from the ship and hopefully drop it into the water, thus preventing the zombie thing from making it across. However, none of her companions seem to hear her and they all remain focused on their attacks this round. One of the sailors gets what she's trying to do, and he rushes over to help.
As Alyndra tries to grab hold of the plank and put her body weight behind it, her feet slip and she crashes to the deck, slamming her chin on the wood. However, the one rather burly sailor who came over to offer his aid ends up getting a good grip. Although it's too heavy with the zombie halfway across already, he manages to lift one side of the long board and buck it, hoping to "dislodge" the rotting, long dead creature.
The zombie seems to stumble, but it remains upright and keeps moving forward. When it reaches the end of the plank, it leans over and attacks the now-prone Alyndra with a slow, but powerful slam of its rotting arm. She can feel the hard thud on her back that almost knocks the wind out of her (4 damage.) She can hear the thing wheezing with an eerie raspy growl right above her.
The other zombie that's currently on the deck runs its rampage amongst the crew, this time battering at the captain with its disgusting, fleshy arm that's full of maggots. Fortunately, the captain is able to parry the attack with his weapon. He shifts to the offensives and cuts a deep slash across the zombie's chest, although the creature remains standing. The zombie that was crossing Sunita's plank rambles forward and confronts her as it steps off the board. She suddenly finds herself face to face with stinking, rotting, hissing, wheezing death as it slams one its fists against her head. (2 hp damage.)
The six skeletons that are currently on the ship's deck continue to terrorize the crew, who fight back with desperation as they bash at the skeletons with their clubs. The sailors, aided by the first mate and the bosun manage to take down all but one of them before the last one draws blood from the boson as it hacks at him with its rusty sword.
Amidst the chaos of hacking and bashing weapons against the bony assailants, and the loud, constant shuffle of feet on the wooden deck, Markus watches as the ghostly, spectral pirate floats towards him with surprising speed and lash out with one of its bony, sharp-nailed hands. It's a horrifying experience to suddenly be so close to this vile spirit thing, and he can feel the cold air that seems to emanate from around it, but somehow, Markus avoids being hit by its touch.
Just then, Lazarus catches something out of the corner of his eye... another figure up on the helm of the pirate ship.. another seemingly undead humanoid dressed in an old, very worn and abraded suit of studded leather armor. He realizes that the figure is raising a longbow and is about to fire. Quickly shifting his body aside, the firbolg avoids being hit by the missile, but unfortunately, doesn't see the creature reload, and a couple seconds later, he feels the agonizing pain of a second arrow that slams into his left side. (4 hp damage.)
Ok next round. Everyone is up. One skeleton remains on deck, along with one zombie, and one engaged with Sunita, plus the ghostly figure you thought was the pirate captain, and this new creature, who suddenly looks like he outranks him, standing on the deck of the other ship.
Lazarus looked up just in time in order to see another figure off in the distance and then would move just slightly in order to watch an arrow fly by. He would look back at the arrow and just as he did, he would go to turn around to look at the figure and was about to curse at it when another arrow would suddenly find itself dug into his side. "Mother of a chicken chaser!" He would grind his teeth and tighten his grip on his sword and he was about to start across the plank but figured that being stuck on enemy territory so he would look over to see his wife on the ground and a undead just over her. "Get off you undead!"
He rushed over and attempted to strike the undead with his rapier in order to get it away from her.
Face screwing up in a wince as she clipped her chin against the wood, Alyndra blinked open her eyes just in time to see the zombie stumbling forward to hit her. Coughing at the blow to her back, she lost concentration on making the board lighter, losing her grip on the plank. Lazarus wasted no time in coming to her side to try and attack her assailant but she was more focused on the arrow in his side. "I wanna ask if you're okay but that looks like it hurts." The half elf suddenly felt so overwhelmed in the chaos, the sounds of battle overtaking her as she looked around at the scene. All she could focus on was what was immediately in front of her and the stench of the corpse that had hit her. But catching sight of the burly sailor at her side she met his eyes and nodded. "Again!"Reaching out with her magic to adjust the board's density before trying once more to slide the plank off and into the ocean.
Desperate, scared...even more so when Alyndra went down for a moment....Sunita fought with animalistic fury, hacking at the ambulatory corpse before her...
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Markus decides to focus on the ghostly figure first and calls out his companions "I'll aim for this one! I thought he was the captain..." Keeping concentration on his acid spell, the creature gets another 7 of Acid at the start of its turn. He also points his staff once more in its direction and shoots a small firebolt (16 to hit ; 9 fire damage)
Bosko sees the skeleton in front of him collapse into a pile of inanimate bones after his strikes connect, then looks around to take stock of what is happening.
He sees Lazarus rush to the aid of Alyndra, and then focusses on Sunita tackling the zombie by herself. He rushes over striking the undead from behind with both bear claws, using the distraction of it's fight with Sunita to his advantage.
"Clan must fight as one", he says as the blades fly.
Movement: Closes the distance to flank the Zombie with Sunita Action: Attack with Bear Claw (Advantage for flanking - assuming we are using flanking rules): (20,19)+5=25 (crit!), Damage: (4+2)+3=9 BonusAction: Attack with Bear Claw (Advantage for flanking - assuming we are using flanking rules): (15,13)+5=20, Damage: 1+3=4
As Alyndra struggles to her feet and tries once again to move the plank, her husband comes rushing to her defense against the attacking zombie. Unfortunately, he finds the creature to be more agile than he thought and it's able to dodge his blade Meanwhile, two more sailors come rushing up to offer their assistance. They shove the zombie back, five feet away from her, although they're not able to send if off of the makeshift bridge between the two ships.
The sailor that helped last time tries once again to push the plank, but as with before, you're able to get it to move, but not enough to push it away from the ship. The zombie retaliates by rushing forward again and bashing at Alyndra a second time with a barbaric intensity. The attack is brutal, (Attack 20 + 1 crit, Damage 14) and Lazarus watches as his wife drops to the deck, limp and unconscious.
On the right hand plank, Bosko joins his companion and helps Sunita in the fight against the zombie that she's facing. They practically tear it apart with their blades, cutting and stabbing at its mangled flesh, ripping away chunks of its already dead body, but the thing keeps coming at them.
Meanwhile, Markus continues with his effective magical offensive stand against the spectral pirate. Between his acid and fire attacks, he can tell that he's definitely wearing it down, although, not quite enough this round to prevent it from returning with an attack of its own. The thing slams at him with its undead hand, and suddenly Markus feels a horrible intense chill that wracks at his body with an incredible amount of pain (9 hp Necrotic Damage). It's as some of his life is being stolen by the creature, and he gasps for breath as he tries to fight it. (Need a CON save from Markus: DC 10, or else his HP max is reduced by 9 hp.)
Also on the deck of the Sea Spirit, the captain manages to take down the first zombie with his own sword. As he does so, he orders the rest of his remaining crew to the oars, so they can try and paddle away from the other ship.
From the other ship, the armored captain fires another pair of arrows at Lazarus. His focus is on helping his wife, and he doesn't see them coming. One of them arrows slams into the firbolg, hitting him the right leg. (8 hp damage.)
Ok, next round. Everyone is up again. Two zombies remain, one of which is very injured. The spectral pirate on the Sea Spirit also looks to be very injured. And there's the captain on the other ship.
"Just die....properly", Bosko growls at the zombie between himself and Sunita.
Out of the corner of his eye he sees Alyndra take an almighty hit, and he pauses a moment struggling with the need to be in two places at once.
He decides to trust Lazarus and Markus to help Alyndra, feeling that between himself and Sunita they can dispatch the zombie thy are fighting quickly and rush to help their clan members.
He swings out again with his bear claw, using all his might to try and take the head off the zombie.
If he is successful he will move across to the one next to Alyndra and swing for it with his other bear claw, otherwise he will persist with the current one.
