Yikes, I appreciate and admire your enthusiasm, but try to keep your posts to half or less that post in the future.
OOC: Heh. Yeah, I may have gone a bit overboard with that. I designed Kyle as a bit of a mix between Bear Grylls and Batman. He's supposed to be extremely analytical, approaching a fight as a series of formulations and executions of plans instead of a contest of strength. Basically I'm aiming for something like this. Kyle thinks those thoughts, but doesn't actually verbalize them. I "translate" them to words so the reader can understand them, so what you take a while to read happens in just a few seconds. In a text only meduim I have to use more words and so it turns into a much less interesting wall of text instead of a cool slow motion fight scene.
And here I am being verbose again. Anyway, I'll try to tone it down from here on.

Don't know what to do so D: Action: Join the battle
You are in the room of the battle, so effectively, in the battle. You may act thusly and amend your post.
OoC: Oh I reread the last sentence of the big post D:
Ammended Action: Attack
OoC: Do I have any skills or not yet?

Vaguely distinguishing Kyle rushing the skeleton on its right, Augura drew his sword and made a strike to the skeleton's left side.
"Let's see how you do when you're disarmed," he said under his breath.
Action: Attempt to sever the skeletons left arm with a swift sword strike!

While the wall looks like it could be taken out with a good blast, magical or otherwise, it was still sturdy enough to prevent him from bashing it in just now. Cadeon made a mental note of this wall for later. And then he hears commotion coming from the entrance to one of the side rooms.
"Shit!" he exclaims, hefting his glaive and rushing to aid his companions.
ACTION: go to where the action is.

BATTLE!

The skeleton is knocked off balance, and has its left arm dismembered.
When Beliette's bolo crash between Kyle and Augura, catching the skeleton in the ribcage, the skeleton is sent flying. Such a strong attack that the skeleton loses his right pinky finger, which was previously dislodged from Kyle's dinky sword.
The skeleton has now been sent into the room with the crystal!
As such, Cadeon joins the battle!

"Whoa shit!" Cadeon exclaims as the skeleton comes careening towards him. Cadeon reflexively strikes out at the skeleton in a wide haymaker-of-a-swipe with his glaive
ACTION: heavy wild swing of the glaive at the skeleton

The skeleton was sent crashing into the crystal room, dismembered in more than one way, as it lost both its weapon and the arm holding it. However, while it was much less of a threat now, undead, as their name implies, don't usually have the decency of staying dead.
ACTION: Move to the crystal room to finish off the skeleton. If it's still laying on the ground attempt to curb stomp it, if not hold sword in defensive position to counter the skeleton's unarmed attack.

BATTLE!
It's clearly the skeleton's turn to rock. With it's only good arm, it grabs the incoming glaive, undetered by the pointy end. Under impossible strength, the skeleton hurls Cadeon into Beliette's bolas.
Then, waiting until Kyle's leg is raised, the skeleton sweeps its legs out. Kyle trips backwards, his defensive sword slickly defending against Augura's attack, though it was intended for the skeleton. While the four of you are at the disadvantage, the skeleton pulls itself upright, like a puppet on strings.
As this is all happening, the skeleton's arm has dragged itself like a magnet to reattach itself. The skeleton is battle-ready this time, and bathed in eeries shadows from the crystal's red light.
"Fools! Tempt the Darkness to kill you, and it shall! We are the legion of the depths. Our strength is in the shadows!
As the skeleton speaks, two more appear from the other, yet to be explored room. You now face three skeletons.

Yes, undead did not have the decency of staying dead. Not only was the skeleton back on its feet, it somehow got its arm to attack back. And now two of its friends decided to join the party. The voice from the hologram was probably finding it hilarious.
As it was, the sword was going to be useful only for defense. Heavy blunt force was needed.
ACTION: Tackle the skeleton closest to a column or wall into said column or wall.

Action: persuade the skeletons to get near into the dim red light of the crystal with dance and sounds, so there is more accuracy in the party actions.
picking himself up Cadeon was dismayed to see that two more skeletons had jooned the fracas. He readied himself into battle position clutchiing his glaive tightly.
"Okay guys the one manhandled us pretty handily we gotta regroup and work together," he bellowd out to the rest of his companions.
ACTION: motion for the others to regroup and confront the enemies together.

Action:persuade the skeletons to get near into the dim red light of the crystal with dance and sounds, so there is more accuracy in the party actions.
OOC: This makes me think. Are these kinds of undead more sensitive to sound? Beliette may be on to something.
Also, poor Cadeon. He has a high Wisdom score but low Charisma. He has good advice to give but nobody listens to it.
"Damn," Augura breathed as he faced the new skeletons. "As if one wasn't enough!"
Action: Move to Cadeon and enter a defensive stance.

BATTLE!
With all his strength, Kyle heroicly launches to the first skeleton. Effectively pinning the bone foe to the pillar in the middle of the chamber. This act at least gives the other three enough time to get together amd rally. However, Beliette moves to behind the crystal and dances enticingly. At once the two new skeletons wander over to the dancing woman, as if they had 'boners' for her. Herp derp derp~
Meanwhile, the first skeleton is too engaged with Kyle to be bothered. It had no wind to be knocked out of it, and instead used the time it was being pinned to grapple with Kyle. Grabbing his bow in one hand and Kyle's sword in the other. It seemed Kyle would have to choose between the two!
As the moments passed, and the two new skeletons drew closer to the crystal, the light within began to visibly dwindle.
