Hans redirects his flaming sphere and blasts away with another magic missile from his lucky stick.

Hans directs the flaming sphere to attack the bugbear, and he adds a magic missile for good measure.
Perception: 1d20+16=36That will be good enough to hit the right square. Anyone looking that way (Perception DC15, if you didn't state you were looking that direction) will be able to see the spongy, fiery ball bounce off of something unseen (roll for damage, Hans). You can attack that square without penalty (since you know which square he is in, I'll give y'all a 25% miss chance for invisibility, rather than the normal 50%, for this round only). There usually isn't a miss chance for spells that affect an area (like Flaming Sphere).
Hans casts Flaming Sphere at whoever attacked Miho.
Hans lets out a low whistle. "That's a pity. Afraid there's not much I can do; I haven't learned to bring folks back to life just yet."
Now that the final PFRPG rules are available (http://paizo.com/prd), Lucky Hans gets a couple of changes:
I think that's about it. EDIT: Missed a few...
"Aroden's holy b@+@*%%s!" Hans just about jumps out of his skin as the apparition comes out of nowhere. "Who are you, milady?" The wolf tries to take a big hunk out of the nearest hobgoblin.
Hans's dire wolf starts tearing into the enemy as Hans sits back and waits. "It looks like you fellows have everything well in hand!"
Here's the battle map for round 4. I changed it over to Excel, since it's easier to make adjustments. I didn't know if everyone has Excel, though, so what I posted was a screen capture jpeg. Did you try importing the spreadsheet to docs.google.com?
Hans skitters backwards as he sends the augmented dire wolf to chomp on the new hobgoblin arrivals.
Does anyone not have Excel or a program that will open Excel documents? If so, I'll post jpeg images as well.
"Uh oh..." Hans says glumly as he looks up the stairs. He begins trying to whistle up a dire wolf to block that avenue of attack.
Hans targets whichever one looks closest to death by the time his turn rolls around. :-)
"What kind of crazy house is this?" Hans quips. "It seems to attract all sorts of colourful characters from near and far!" Hans tosses another flame at the hobgoblins as he keeps one eye glued on the newcomers.
If the main hobgoblin is dead, Hans tosses his flame at one of the other hobgoblins.
Hans hurls a ball of flame at the hobgoblin. "Ooh, you're a tough one, ain't ye!" he marvels. His mangy wolf companion howls in excitement.
Hans tries to stifle a whoop of excitement as he gets ready to fight again.
I don't care one way or the other.
"Pardon me, miss, but this is not the best time!" Hans whispers. "We're about to fight a legion of axe-wielding hobgoblins, so you might want to stand out of the way..."
As far as Miho and her oath, are these oaths usually broad and sweeping ("I will crush evil wherever I find it"), or more specific and localized ("I will see the Princess safely delivered to the Rebellion")? I think it's more along the lines of "I will do whatever Hans says, no matter what common sense tells me."
Yippee!!
To quote the immortal words of El DeBarge: "Who's Johnny?"
If Diego bursts in, Hans is not far behind. But if Coraline does some scouting first, Hans will wait for a blood-curdling scream... :-)
Hans also waits...
Hans lobs a mini-fireball at the hobgoblin, singing him slightly.
Hans casts produce flame and gets ready to hurl a few mini-fireballs.
Diego and Hans continue their frontal assault on the manor...
Hans grins. "Sounds good to me! Onward, mangy!" He kicks the sides of his wolf and the beast moves into a moderate lope.
"As I told you before, Miss Amie, I cannot make myself smaller than I am. Although with practice, that may change..." A quick glance between Hans and the cat reveals that the halfling is at least twice the size.
"Unfortunately, milady, you see me at my smallest size. I could, however, take the form of an eagle or a dog. Are you suggesting some sort of infiltration?"
K: Nature
Hans lets out a low whistle: <<Sounds like a nasty bunch of characters. Where are these shadow-things, do you know? Above ground, below ground...?>>
"Brrr...give me the outdoors any day!" Hans chirps. "Maybe I can ask some of the local critters what they've seen lately." Hans mutters a little spell, and then looks for a local animal to speak with. <<Hello, friend! Do you know what big beasts might be living in that large cave?>>
Hans scratches his head. "You guys are crazy...you're all crazy! If you want to drag that gobbo along with us, let it be on your head! At any rate, let's get moving. We've wasted enough time here."
Ignoring Tate, Hans uses his wand of Ray of Enfeeblement on the hobgoblin.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?"
Hans trots over on his wolf. "Hey! What are you doing? We should drop this gobbo off with the local garrison; he might have some information for them!"
