initiative 1d20+5 : 6 + 5, total 11

Move action: handle animal to give the attack command.

handle animal vs. DC 10 1d20+5 : 5 + 5, total 10

I assume I can command multiple animals with one action if they're all trained with the exact same commands, and I don't call them by name before issuing the command. If not, let me know. I can still command all of them in one round, because I can take two move actions and I can command my animal companion as a free action. I'll need to make another couple of checks, though.

Furzban mutters quietly "Oh dear..." to himself, and then (still from his hiding place) commands his wolfhound and red deer to "Attack!"

The diminutive elf standing among the dwarves (in the middle of their front row, or just ahead of the lead mule) shouldered his staff and...

Wood elves are immune to sleep too. Yay!

Initiative:
This dice roll has been tampered with!
Rolled 1d20+1 : 3 + 1, total 4

Also: Granted manuevers:

1: Charging Minotaur
2: Crusader's Strike
3: Stone Bones
4: Vanguard Strike
5: Leading the Attack

I'll roll a d5, then d4, then d3, and so on as additional maneuvers are granted. Maneuver's numbers adjust to match the total available, but the order stays the same. So:

This dice roll has been tampered with!
Rolled 1d5 : 2, total 2
This dice roll has been tampered with!
Rolled 1d4 : 4, total 4

So that's Crusader's Strike and Leading the Attack. And of course he's in Martial Spirit Stance. Or will be when he isn't flat-footed.

NOTE TO GM: We need a map to determine where everything is in relation to everything else.

Ahem.

Unless Seymour's Sense Motive has revealed the dwarves' intent as something other than hostility, he will do these in order.  (If, however, the dwarves did not mean to be hostile (as judged according to Seymour's 15 Sense Motive result), we'll see.  I need further GM input for that.)

Assuming dwarven hostilities:

Seymour says, "I came here a partner but you may leave here a martyr," as he moves back, away from their melee threat range.  (He takes a move action to move 30' away if possible, but will move 5' back if that's all he can manage now.)

During this movement, he shouts to his company, "Attack!"

At the end of this movement, he begins casting silent image to make it appear like an army of disfigured ghostly dwarven figures (as many as Seymour with his 20 INT, massive INT-based skill checks, and magical ability will allow) is rising out of the ground to scare the dwarven company away.  (This silent image offers a DC 16 Will save to disbelieve, if a unit even gets a save at all.  If a unit 'interacts' with the illusion, it gets a DC 16 Will save to disbelieve.  I may need a more concrete definition of interaction for the sake of these spells.)

(Regarding the technical definition of 'force,' the US military is considered the "armed forces."  See here and here for more details.  Thus, I would be able to make an 'army' of 'ghost dwarves.')

These are the 'spirits' that Seymour warned his company about, and Seymour 'orders' the spirits to surround him in a 10' space.  Another of the 10' cubes of 'ghosts' is on the dwarven leaders' space, while the other three 10' cubes of 'ghosts' appear in the spaces of the other dwarves (if Seymour can reach that far) or about halfway between Seymour and the dwarven company, advancing at 30' per round.

Assuming he can, Seymour will move at 30' per round to retreat back toward the mine's entrance and behind the lines of his company and friends.

Remember, Seymour's mage armor is active and his AC is currently 14.
