"Take it then, We fight for more then just some measly gold." Mika reaches into her pocket and throws the gold back with Gene.
"Sorry Gene but I'm going ahead. Knowing them, they might be in a bit of trouble." Mika moves with her full speed towards Jon and Tyr.

The hellish landscape seems to get to Jon, who breaks out in a nervous sweat and begins unconsciously scanning for escape routes. His aim isn't affected, though, and his shot blasts a chunk from the zombie's midsection. The undead miner responds with a clumsy attack, which the shaken paladin dodges.
Tyr's slashing sword lops a zombie arm clean off at the elbow, but the freshly-pruned corpse takes no notice. The undead advance on the gunslinger with more powerful swings, but Tyr proves too elusive.
The spellcaster controlling the zombies advances a few more steps into the flickering light of the nearby bonfire, revealing a gray-skinned little humanoid, completely bald, with over sized eyes that are nearly all pupil. His bizarrely deep voice rumbles forth once more, and a kaleidoscopic shell of chaotic shapes and colors springs up around him.

From descriptions you've heard back on Avistan, this humanoid greatly resembles a Svirfneblin. The secretive subterranean race is renowned for its resistance to magic and powerful innate casting abilities.
Mika finally reaches the battle, pulling up just behind her gunslinger allies.

"We have the dead things, take the other one. Careful though, its resistant to magic. And don't trust your eyes." I hope she is actually here, not another figment.
He quickly lets loose another holy blast from his revolver, looking to finally re-bury his assailant, His other hand touching his wounds.

Tyr relieves his undead opponent of yet another hand, avoiding two more wide swings in the process. Meanwhile, John unloads a shot into his opponent, blowing a hole straight through the thing's head. It falls to the ground as Mika sprints past and unleashes a sizzling wave of electricity into the enemy caster.
The svirfneblin stumbles forward, little whisps of smoke trailing from singed clothing, and unleashes an attack of his own. A wave of darkness emanates from an obsidian disk in the humanoid's little hand, washing over Tyr and Mika and seeming to siphon off their very life.

Tyr's latest strike hits the mark, and the zombie falls in two twitching pieces. His other opponent unleashes a mighty haymaker, but the agile gunslinger sidesteps once more.
The diminutive spellcaster ignore the paladin's warning, though out of ignorance or indifference you can't be sure. Mika and Genevieve both fire at the man, but bullet and ray both ricochet harmlessly off his kaleidoscopic shield. Jon's shot pierces the magical defense, inflicting a grievous blow.
The svirfneblin grasps at the bullet wound, then points at the offending gunslinger and utters a rumbling litany. Jon's vision swims as he tries to fend off the thing's malignant curse.

Jon and Genevieve close with the spellcaster and hack away, but their blades find no purchase as it dodges out of their way. Mika seems more fortunate, hitting the enemy squarely in the chest, but her electrical ray withers away to a cold spark as it strikes him, doing no damage to speak of. Tyr's luck is no better, as he slices wide of his undead opponent.
The nimble svirfneblin hops back, once more grasping at the obsidian disk on its neck and unleashing a shadowy wave of negative energy.
