Sluf

The unfortunately named Short Little Ugly Fucker, or Sluf, is a counterrevolutionary allied with just about anyone who opposes the rule of Highman Grax, except, strangely, Tyro. He lives in his House of Illusion on the outskirts of Landover, Baldur, which also serves as his base of operations. While he infrequently acts directly, he coordinates uprisings in Baldur as well as the occasional assassination attempt. He also procures weapons and other supplies for his allies. He is a gnome illusionist, and has a fondness for things that jingle.
Sluf first met the party through Kytia, the drow adventurer and freedom fighter. He had been supplying her with food and information, and she in turn was attempting to mobilize the drow against Grax before he seized power. Later, Ulfgar happened across the House of Illusion and learned about Grax's plans. While Sluf was not directly involved in the assassination attempt on Grax that day, it seemed that he knew about it beforehand. 
Sluf and Baudin Dommilan met again in Baldur (City). Baudin stabbed Sluf in the foot, and Sluf erased part of Baudin's memory and enchanted his ankle to jingle. 
The party encountered Sluf again at the end of Season Three in the freshly renamed Graxboro. This time, he was directly orchestrating an assassination attempt on Grax. He introduced the party to a young assassin named Claire the Deadly, and had ordered her a special crossbow bolt made of Acadia Wood from Vishnu.
The party encountered him again at the end of Season Seven in Baldur, camping out in the deserted mind flayer city with his counter-revolutionaries and making bathtub gin in the tank of the Motherbrain. Ashra had to be telepathically shouted down from attempting to kill him on the spot, but Claire managed to get the party to work with him, and he provided engineers, gunpowder, and the assistance of a neogi to bomb the tower where, unknown to him, Fake Baudin was attempting to detonate a Frozen Fate.
According to Ashra's scrying and rumors gathered by Leilah Maloch, after Edmund Vargus retook Baldur, Sluf set up his base of operations in the illithid guildhome. He was last seen working there with a large number of dwarves. Ashra is probably planning his eventual gory demise, though they're technically on the same side.
