Pharodeys stays well to the rear of the rest of the group, as she tends to make quite a bit of noise.

As Zardi is straining to listen, he stumbles through a bit of underbrush, causing a small family of weasels to come screeching out of their den, scattering at the big goliath's feet.[sblock=Rolls]Stealth (1d20+1=4) (4)

Carlotta leads the way through the woods, in the general direction of the voices. They manage to keep silent as they proceed towards the babbling stream, but can't get a bead on the voices at all, until they pop out of the brush a short distance from the rushing stream to find themselves face-to-face with a small knot of goblins. While these aren't the hobgoblins that make up the bulk of the Hzakan forces, these often scout for them.
Two of them are lightly armored, armed only with javelins, and are mounted on bird/lizard-looking thingies. Fast runners by the looks of them, whatever they are. Another pair of goblins have long narrow crossbows--apparently snipers, by the looks of them. A fifth goblin is more heavily armored than the rest of them, and is armed with a spear with a crosspiece just below its head. The final one is harder to see, as he's behind a tree, but he's unarmored and carries a staff. He's the one who's been talking, and as the adventurers emerge from the wood, he yells out "Cripes! We're made! Spread out, guys!"[sblock=Initiative]Sound of Stone: 14(1d20) +7 = 21

E.g., if you want Carlotta to use Tempest Assault, you spend a standard action. If you want her to move, you spend a move action. An NPC is limited to the usual number of actions each round (but those actions need not all be granted by the same PC). An NPC who has an immediate action can likewise only use it if a PC has an immediate action available to use on his/her behalf.
NPCs can take free actions and opportunity actions normally, without the direction of PCs. They are always considered to have their weapons in hand and don’t need to spend actions unsheathing them.
If left to her own devices, Carlotta will, if adjacent to an enemy, use a minor action to use Nature's Wrath to mark, then will use Warden's Fury as an immediate interrupt if the opportunity presents itself. If, on the other hand, she is not adjacent to an enemy, she will move so that she is.[/sblock][sblock=Carlotta]Carlotta

A sudden warping of space scatters the goblins, separating one of the riders from his mount and moving others every which way. Pharodeys freezes in place as a translucent wispy creature emerges from her body. It passes through Sound of Stone and through Carlotta, seeming to carry her with it as it flies rapidly over to the enemy. Near the stream, it hovers in place, shaping itself into the semblance of a large, glowing jellyfish whose tendrils look like leafy creepers.
[sblock=actions]Standard: dimensional scramble centered on C10. Dimensional scramble vs Fort, Armor; Staff; Rider 2; Sniper 2; damage
12(1d20) +5 = 17; 20(1d20) +5 = 25; 16(1d20) +5 = 21; 19(1d20) +5 = 24; 3(1d6) +4 = 7 hits all 4, crits Staff guy. Armor, Sniper 2, and Rider 2 take 7, Staff guy takes 10.

[sblock=Important: Spirit Effects]A reminder of the effects that the spirit (Murmur) has on combat. The first three are important to players.
• Allies gain a +2 bonus to saves while adjacent to Murmur.
• Murmur occupies 1 square. Allies can move through its space but enemies cannot.
• Any enemy that leaves a square adjacent to Murmur without shifting is subject to an opportunity attack (the Spirit’s Wrath power: +6 vs Reflex, 1d6+5 damage, and the target grants CA until the end of Pharodeys’s next turn).
• Murmur has the same defense values as Pharodeys and can be targeted by melee and ranged attacks.
• If a single melee or ranged attack deals 11 or more damage to Murmur, the spirit disappears and Pharodeys takes 6 damage. Murmur is otherwise unaffected by attacks.
• When Pharodeys takes a move action, she can move Murmur up to 6 squares as well.
• If Murmur is not present at the start of Pharodeys’s turn, she can summon it once during her turn as a free action.
• Murmur is unaffected by terrain and environmental phenomena and can float in the air.
• Murmur is not a creature. It does not count as an ally and does not provoke opportunity attacks.[/sblock]
