Special rules - Remnant of Iovo:

Each turn a character may move and try to do one special thing (or take a normal standard action)
Defuse the spirit
In order to tame the runaway magical effects here, you need to understand what is happening, interpret the inscribed runes around the basin, perform emergency repairs, and calm the spirit. This requires five checks using Diplomacy, Disable Device, Knowledge (arcana), Knowledge (religion), Linguistics, or Spellcraft. The DC is 15. Once a PC has successfully used one of these skills, future uses of that skill in this encounter is harder.
To do this you will need to be within ten feet of the pool, and it may attack you.
Rather (or in addition to) a skill check you may use an appropriate class ability or spell and I'll adjust the DC arbitrarily.

Distract the spirit
PCs who attempt to defuse the spirit are vulnerable to its attacks, and a PC can try to distract the spirit by succeeding at an Average Bluff, Intimidate, or combat maneuver check. Again the DC is 15. This would draw the sprit's attention to you rather than the people diffusing the spirit.
Alternatively you may try to hurt the spirit to draw its attention to you, make an attack or cast a spell as normal.
