I love encounters where the PCs are presented a challenge that can be handled in many ways. Some groups may attempt to take out both beasts in combat. Some may try to extract their companion and make a run for it. Others may try to gain a friend by supporting one of the combatants to victory. Using your proposed group, if I was calling the shots I would try to extract Fey as quickly as possible. The gist of the plan would be to have either the fighter or the rogue (the fighter can likely take more hits, but the rogue is faster with dash as a bonus action) run up to the base of the tree so that the wizard can cast levitate to get them to the top of it (I just looked it up and levitate rises the target 20 feet so it works out perfectly). The next round the wizard releases the spell, the spell bringing the runner and Fey down safely. The runner then tries to make it out of the area and the group tries to lose Ponga in the brush. The cleric could cast a defense buff such as sanctuary on the runner before their attempt and will need to administer aid to Fey as he needs it during the operation. I'm not quite sure what the role of the other martial would be. Perhaps peppering Ponga with ranged attacks if she gets in the way of the runner. Maybe even weakening her enough that the lizard can take her out (and hopefully not want adventurer dessert with its meal). Not the most perfect plan I admit. It has quite a bit of risk involving making a clean getaway, but I find its more fun to leave room for improvisation. It's also quite fast, limiting the time required to be close to the threats, and upping Fey's chance to make it.</blockquote>
