Hamadh Hamadh the Unseen was a male drow shadowdancer from Maerimydra . He led a small group of resistance fighters , known as the Hidden , that formed in the wake of Kurgoth Hellspawn ' s invasion . Description . Unusually for a drow , Hamadh dyed his ordinarily white hair black and maintained a short haircut . Dressing in stylish dark greys and blacks , his enchanted studded leather armor made him as inky black as his environs . Personality . Hamadh was not quite as evil as the rest of his kin but was still passionately concerned with the well - being of Maerimydra and the drow to such an extent that he formed the Hidden to oust its invaders . Since creating his band of freedom fighters , he grew uncharacteristically caring towards the group . Abilities . A formidable opponent , Hamadh was noted to move with fluidity and grace in combat , despite wielding an enormous two - handed greatsword , that meant his weapon seemed to be a mere extension of his body . Hamadh had a well - rounded set of abilities and could easily locate most traps , track his enemies , and move almost supernaturally quietly , earning him his moniker " the Unseen " , and was even adept at certain forms of performance art . As a shadowdancer , Hamadh could manipulate shadows to such an extent that he could " teleport " short distances through them , create illusion s , disappear from plain view , and even summon a shadowy creature to do his bidding . Activities . Working with his group of like - minded resistance fighters , Hamadh managed to track down the passwords necessary to gain entrance to Castle Maerimydra and bypass Irae T ' sarran ' s " forbiddance " spell . Possessions . Hamadh wore magic studded leather armor that enhanced his stealth capabilities by merging him with the shadows around him . This was complemented by a pair of " boots of elvenkind " and " gloves of dexterity " , which both further augmented his ability to move quietly and delicately . In battle , Hamadh wielded a fantastically sharp greatsword and carried a hand crossbow doused with shadow essence poison . In addition , Hamadh wore a white gold ring set with a line of tiny black pearls that functioned as a " ring of protection " on his hand and an " amulet of natural armor " around his neck . History . During the Silence of Lolth in 1372 DR , after the drow city Maerimydra fell to the armies of Kurgoth Hellspawn and the undead minions of Irae T ' sarran , Hamadh the Unseen became resolved to oust the invaders . He gathered a number of lurking drow and other " invisibles " who had evaded detection since Maerimydra ' s conquest and united them in common purpose against the occupying armies . With his newly formed Hidden , Hamadh worked toward restoring Maerimydra to its former glory and driving out the respective forces of Kurgoth Hellspawn and Irae T ' sarran . Although they struggled to merely survive in the hostile ruined city , Hamadh did eventually manage to capture a cult cleric of Kiaransalee serving Irae . From her , he learned the password for bypassing the wards of Castle Maerimydra . Hamadh was loathe to exchange such information with others without coming to a favorable deal first . After a while , Hamadh found himself becoming unusually fond of his fellow members of the Hidden . During the Rage of Demons of 1491 DR Hamadh was again the leader of the Hidden , fighting the fire giant s invaders .
