I assume she would recognize that Charm Person is not going to work on the redcap.
Sefayll debates the situation, then decides to cast a charm on the diminutive fellow.
"I have exhausted most of my strength and could use a rest. Having said that, I think it would be a good idea to try to figure out where these caves go and if they lead into the giant fortress. Once we determine this, we can return to the cave and prepare for the next step."

Sefayll's idea of making a survival check is to follow the big Shoanti brothers. :P
The narrow tunnel opens out into a much larger chamber, perhaps forty feet across and twenty feet high. There are tall, wide exits to the north and east, as well as the small tunnel he has approached from entering to the south-west.
The cave is cluttered by tiny mounds of carefully sorted junk—bones, scraps of armor, broken weapons, stones, dead rats, and chitin harvested from large vermin. Close by, a net hammock hangs from a pair of stalagmites. In it lounges a small reptilian humanoid with red skin, idly sharpening the head of its spear to a fine point.

Camlo will sneak back and then relay that information to the others...

"Describe the reptilian to me. How large was it? Bipedal? Two arms, two legs, tail?"
Musing, "Maybe we have found an alternate entrance - those sound like doors sized for giants. Is this creature a pet, a guard, a prisoner?"
"It was human-ish shaped (humanoid) and sharpening it's claws on it's spear, so intelligent enough to use weapons... It didn't look liek a pet, or prisoner. But if it's a guard, it's a lazy one."

"Either way it might possess some valuable information. Perhaps this is a worthwhile target for your mind magicks, Hellknight?"
"Possibly. Camlo, do you think you can lure him to us or would it be better to go to him? It will be difficult for me to not be detected if he's paying any attention at all."

Camlo's plan would be to get back to where he can see him. Then catch his attention by throwing a stone near him, then move back, making some lose stones make a noise as he goes, so the thing follows. I'm guessing there'd be a few stealth checks in there to not be seen despite being heard.

Clarification question: Would Charm Person and Hold Person work on a kobold based on creature type?

Sefayll prepares to cast charm person on the kobold after Camlo baits it into the tunnel.

Camlo sets himself up out of sight but off to one side, then throws a small stone so it makes a clatter towards the other side, to get it's attention, but have that attention aimed away from Camlo.
Of course, if it's a narrow tunnel, he'll stay back and throw forward sort of thing....

Sefayll awaits the creature around a blind corner, ready to cast when it comes into view. She's pushed and cajoled the others into remaining farther back down the tunnel to avoid scaring it. She makes no attempt to hide herself and simply sits cross-legged on the floor while she waits hoping that she seems less of a threat.
Seeing it before Camlo is a bit disconcerting, however, which might affect her reaction time as she casts the spell.

Sefayll narrows her eyes, but stays with the original plan. Without standing, she expertly runs through the motions of a charm against her small adversary.

Sefayll waves her hand. In Common, she says, "It's nothing. I shouldn't expect to surprise one such as you without a response. Please, join me. Perhaps you can tell me where we find ourselves. We seem to be a bit lost."

"Jorgenfist. What is Jorgenfist, then? An enclave of dragonkin like yourself?"
"Nah! Dragonkin? Pfft - waste of time they are, gave them the flick a long time back. It's full of giants, under Lord Mokmurian." She - for it is a she - puffs out her chest. "Only I'm the match of any giant - I proved it to Mokmurian! Fought him in the wastes, made it a draw. So he put me in charge of minding the back door here, make sure no intruders get in this way." She looks a little confused for a moment, like she has forgotten something, then shrugs. "So, who are you?"

"Merely travelers that have lost our way. We have not seen many giants in this area. Who is Lord Mokmurian? Is he a giant, then? If he is, you must be very powerful to fight him to a draw."

When Sefayll hears the others approach, she adds, "Ah, yes, my friends. I can vouch for them. I will let them introduce themselves. You can call me Val."
"OK, Val, any friend of yours... Anyway, yeah, Mokmurian - he's a wizard as well as a giant, so yeah, he was a bit of a challenge. All of the other giants are sh1t-scared of him, but I slowed him down. Heh! Surprised you haven't seen any gaints, it's swarming with them up there. Anyway, this place is some giant holy place or something. Mokmurian's doing something important here, but I'm not sure what - wizard stuff, y'know?"

I'll wait for the others in the party to make their appearance. Fighting a big fire at work, anyway, so what concentration I normally have is nil today.
