Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Śaṃkarapārṣada (शंकरपार्षद) refers to the “attendants of Śiva”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.4 (“Search for Kārttikeya and his conversation with Nandin”).—Accordingly, as Kārttikeya said to Nandīśvara: “[...] O Nandikeśvara, I am not severed from the daughter of the lord of mountains who is virtually my mother just as these ladies on the basis of virtuous rites. You have been sent by Śiva. You are like a son unto Śiva. I am coming with you. I shall see the gods. After saying so and hurriedly taking leave of the Kṛttikās, Kārttikeya started along with the attendants of Śiva (śaṃkarapārṣada)”.
