Tycho starts casting and singing. He moves so that he can se the Halfling as well as possible. He then casts a glitterdust on the creature (DC 10+2+5 = 17)
Glitterdust
Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Brd 2, Sor/Wiz 2
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Area: Creatures and objects within 10-ft. spread
Duration: 1 round/level
Saving Throw: Will negates (blinding only)
Spell Resistance: Yes
A cloud of glittering golden particles covers everyone and everything in the area, blinding creatures and visibly outlining invisible things. Blindness lasts for the duration of the spell. All within the area are covered by the dust, which cannot be removed and continues to sparkle until it fades.
In addition to the obvious effects, a blinded creature suffers a 50% miss chance in combat (all opponents have full concealment), loses any Dexterity bonus to AC, grants a +2 bonus to opponents’ attack rolls (they are effectively invisible), moves at half speed, and suffers a –4 penalty on most Strength- and Dexterity-based skills.

Tycho melodically sings a spell together and with a flash of multicoloured light a cloud of sparkles appear to the right of the party, engulfing the halfling wraith. Tha particles drift through the wraith (they do not stick to the incorporeal being) but the halfling wraith does seems to be affected by the Glitterdust spell*.
Tycho then starts inspiring courage through his song.**
Kheldev is ready to act.
* so take that into account people, I won't do that for you! Spell description in Take's post.
** Is that what you mean with singing or was that just flavour text?

Kheldev determinedly moves besides Diactum and swings his axe overhead. His blow is powerful, but the Halfling wraith is just a bit too small and dextrous; Kheldev just misses and his axestrike leaves the ground scarred.
An obviously Elven Wraith suddenly emerges from the darkness and very quickly flies behind Kheldev in a flanking position with the halfling. The Wraith Elf is holding a silvered bastered sword: a real one, which hence sometimes has the appearance to be floating in mid air. The image of the elf is wearing chainmail armour, though that is most likely how the wraith went about in life, and has no fucntion in undeath at all.
The Elf strikes with a furious blow towards Kheldev's exposed back... and misses horribly. So horribly, that Kheldev tries to cut the elven wraith's arm as he overextends it. Still full of fury and power however, he again just misses, as the Elf Wraith is quite dextrous too.**
Wulf then sees his chance to act in this flurry of battle.
* Kheldev's Base Attack Bonus is 7, and you cannot Power Attack more than your BAB. I corrected it, but the +1 chance To Hit gained was still not enough to hit the halfling.
** Yes, both attack rolls missed by 1.

Seeing the Elven wraith appear and move towards Kheldav my heart is filled with anger and compassion. I speak softly:"I'll avenge you, my elven brother, now rest."
I pull back my bowstring:
[attack 1= 14 + much = hit]
[attack 2= 15 + much = hit]
[attack 3= 19 + much = hit]
[damage 1= 5 + 3 + 3(meta) +2(pb)= 13]
[damage 2= 5 + 3 + 3(meta) +2(pb)= 13]
[damage 3= 7 + 3 + 3(meta) +2(pb)= 15]
If the elf falls I say a little prayer for his soul.
Arrows left: meta (+3)= 36 / normal= 10

Deepwinter 7
First Post
"This forest will be the end of us, since magic does not seem to affect these incorporeal beings well. Sorry Master Dwarf, all I can do is fight them physically"
Deepwinter 7 makes a single move to flank the Elven Wraith and attempts to hit it while fighting defensively (possibly flanking)
TH : Roll 1: 15 + 8 (std) - 4 (def) + 2 (fl) = 21
Dmg : Roll 1: 5 + 3 (std) = 8 dmg
[next round AC +2 dodge bonus]

Diactum starts chanting arcane words AAAAAAOOOOOOOOOAAARRRRRRRGGGGGBBBBZZ
and moves his hands (with a candle in it) in strange ways.
Seeing the elven wraith appear, Diactum thinks that we need some backup and decides to open a small portal to the aviation plane through wich he flies in a Giant Owl. The owl has one mission: attack the Halfling Wraith immediately.

Ilan shoots three arrows right over Deepwinter's shoulder. Ilan's first two arrows connect with the elven wraith, but the last one flies right through due to its incorporeal nature. The elven wraith seems to scowl at Ilan for a short moment.
Deepwinter 7 stays rooted at the spot, dodging weaving; then striking: his black metal staff goes right through his target as well however. He then succesfully uses his staff to fend off attacks and tries to dodge away from as many attacks as possible.
Wulf now stands between the two wraiths, and is next to take action.
[OOC: Your tactics getting more interesting guys! Great that you track your arrows Ilan! Bacter: Your action can probably be done after Wulf's: I don't see anything wulf could do that would stop you from summoning. Summoning takes one full round though: your spell will be completed at the very beginning of your next initiative, at which point you can take actions for both your sumoned creature and yourself.]
