GDTS deftly avoids the swing of the spiked club!
Now it's his turn to act!
With the pillaged Staff of Awful Light still clasped in his mitts, Giant will lunge at the undead with it.
Test Strength! d20 + 2

3 on my d6
With a sweep of his sword, Lord Margar cuts this undead down!

Assuming that's a hit and it's a d6 as you indicated previously, damage roll is 5

GDTS thrusts the Staff of Awful Light's metal head into the undead. It pierces through the rotten flesh as good as any spear.
What do the others do?

I hit it again with my axe, because I'm original like that.

Just so we're clear, this is a different undead: it's the one in the barracks room which GTDS found inside a box! Maybe you already knew that, but I wanted to be sure.
Fechr rushes in, swinging his axe!
Test Strength, Fechr! (d20 + 3)

Fechr swings but his swing is wide of the mark! Clumsy oaf!
Giant Dances the Sea finds himself in the path of the blade! Test Agility, GDTS, lest you be struck by your friend's axe!

Do you wish to use an Omen to avoid it? No re-roll required!

Giant Dances the Sea narrowly avoids Fechr's axe as it swings wide of its target.
Malaiz and Margar may act!

Hearing the scuffle in the nearby room, I'll charge in with my sword.
19 + 5 = 24
4 on the d6 if it hits

Rushing into the barracks, Lord Margar leaps over one of the beds and slices straight through the undead with his sword, chopping it in half!

With an almost apologetic gesture, Giant will offer up the now heavily-besmirched Staff of Awful Light to Margar (while pocketing the rest of what he found).
Incidentally, is this a different femur to the one Giant was previously carrying? If so, he will examine it for signs of holy light, and if he finds none will discard it over his shoulder.

Examining it closely, GDTS recognises the femur; it appears to be the same one as before, but is most definitely not glowing.
