    Azrien

    After summoning her sparkling lights, Azrien begins to sing quietly. Her hands sculpt outlines in the air. Misty white light surrounds her, coalescing into glowing trails that seem to trace the forms of horses.

    The sorceress' eyes flash white as she spreads her hands wide. The ghostly unicorns charge across the room, leaping over Yvette and lowering their shimmering horns to strike at the golem's head and shoulders, tearing at the elemental spirit within.

    Casting Twinned Melf's Unicorn Arrow at the golem: I'll aim at one of its top squares to avoid the penalty for it being in melee with Yvette. Caster level is (1d6+14)[18].
    Ranged touch attacks are:

    (1) (1d20+11)[12] for (1d8+8)[10]
    (2) (1d20+11)[13] for (1d8+8)[14]
    (3) (1d20+11)[30] for (1d8+8)[15]
    (4) (1d20+11)[18] for (1d8+8)[14]
    (5) (1d20+11)[26] for (1d8+8)[10]

    (6) (1d20+11)[29] for (1d8+8)[14]
    (7) (1d20+11)[16] for (1d8+8)[10]
    (8) (1d20+11)[27] for (1d8+8)[9]
    (9) (1d20+11)[12] for (1d8+8)[12]
    (10) (1d20+11)[18] for (1d8+8)[12]

    If I got 16 or lower on caster level, ignore rolls (5) and (10). The bullrush DC it needs to beat is 21 + 2*(number of hits - 1) - up to you if there are two separate bullrush attempts, or if all the hits count toward a single attempt. If it fails a bullrush check (which I doubt, given it gets to oppose it with Str + 8 if Huge, +12 if Gargantuan), it moves back 5 feet, plus 5 feet for every 5 points by which it failed the check. I will move before casting if pushing it in a particular direction might help open up a charge lane for PCs.

    Note that the damage from Melf's Unicorn Arrow is untyped, SR:no spell damage: it'll ignore its DR and magic immunity.

    EDIT: Grrrr, two natural 1's? Oh well. Total damage, assuming touch AC 13 hits the flatfooted golem, is 98. Bull rush DC is 35 if you're counting all horns toward one attempt, or two bullrushes at DC 27 if you're counting the two sets separately.

    Internet argument is the mind-killer.
    It is the little death that brings total aggravation.
    I will face my annoyance.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    When it has gone past I will turn my inner eye to see its path.
    Where the irritation has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
