As everyone dodges and ducks under the flurry of arrows, Kethra just takes one to the side of the head but just tilts her head back upright, unfazed. Leaving the greataxe on the tenderized crawling claw, she brandishes a curved chopping blade with the engraving of a pineapple to the side*.
Drop greataxe, draw handaxe
Attack: 17 Damage: 9
Bonus action unarmed strike: 15 Damage: 6
If this kills the crawling claw, Kethra will move forward to use the second attack on the zombie, but have partial cover with the most north table.
*handaxe reflavored as a parang, a kind of machete that still needs to be swung like an axe
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As the necromancer runs out through the tunnel, a black bat comes flitting down from the cavern roof. In a swirl of smoke the bat transforms into a humanoid in brown and green leather armour. Standing tall the figure speaks.
"Was that some sort of magic user? A defiler of the natural order?" Pointing in the direction of the necromancer, there is an urgency in the man's voice. Looking around he sees the claws attacking a cat and an armoured man. "Can I help with....these things?"

OOC: As Jairus is up along with several other PCs, do you have any issue with him waiting to act to see if another PC closes to melee with the enemy? By the book he cannot, and would need to use a readied action and then a reaction, but sometimes PBP has "party turns" more fluid. Whichever you prefer - I will roll attacks vs the zombie and note damage and separate sneak attack damage, the latter of which would only apply if another PC is or comes to be threatening the zombie at the time Jairus attacks. By the book he cannot wait for others, there is no "delay" in 5e, so I am fine with forgoing sneak attack and just attacking twice. He suffers no disadvantage for firing at a target he is in melee with due to Crossbow Master.

Tyrael take 9 damage, Flower takes 6. Everything else misses.
(Tyrael and Flower are up)
(The necromancer is out of sight, four skeletons remain (one wounded), 1 claw remains (on Jairus) and the zombie is just barely holding on to undeath.)

"This zombie just don't know how to die!" Jairus shouts, as the undead continues to withstand evident killing blows. "Dang ignorant walkin' dead man, lay down to yer eternal rest er whatever!"

(So I took 7 damage from the skeleton arrow, 2 from the crawling claw AoO?)
(Is this for me too? Does this mean that I didn't kill a crawling claw with a greataxe? Wow they're pretty hardy little guys.)
(No, you did. I missed that you wanted to trigger both claws and only rolled one, the greataxe would come after both of them.)
(You took a total of 12 damage, 6 with resistance.)

(Alright. I'll add the damage minus the rage.)

OOC: I am just assuming this is something out of The Raid.
(Oh, my bad. I assumed I took out one of the things first. I can still round down the 7 to a 3, right?)
(Only if I get 2 light hammers.)

Yes.

(Assuming Damian attacks the claw closest to him (the one on Flower).)
Damian takes out another claw, leaving only the one on Jairus remaining.
The zombie will attack Tyrael once more.
Attack: 9 Damage: 7

Despite her injury, Flower suddenly bursts into a run (Feline Agility-double speed), giving chase to the Lord necromancer.
(Note: the necromancer is at least 200 feet away by now, and there's 4 skeletons between you and him.)
(Tyrael, both you and Flower posted your turns early.)

Okay, Tyrael will fire an eldritch blast at one of the skeletons - one wounded, if available - then duck entirely behind a table.
