The Ithzir adept carries a bearing of absolute confidence, his piercing, pupil-less green eyes shrewdly taking in his surroundings.  The Ithzir adept is slightly taller than a human, and while his humanoid form is similar to scores of other races, the hairless, blue-skinned body is nonetheless alien in its appearance.  The adept wears a crisply-cut, silvery-blue tunic with high shoulders and a deep vee-neck.  Emblazoned on the right breast of the tunic is a single green eye.

Hunting strategies

This is from the experience of a pure ambusher with a backslasher (shortsword). Ithzir Adepts can be stunned relatively easily if one can hide well and hits one with only a mediocre swing or arrow shot(?) from an ambush. They tend to remain stunned longer than usual creatures. Ambush can usually kill one if hit with a good critical, such as the neck or head or eye. If they happen to have a spell up that gives a high DS, one can remain hidden and wait and/or follow until that spell dissipates and then launch an ambush attack.

Other information

Ithzir Adepts are wizards, and tend to cast bolt spells at their opponents, as well as CS-based spells such as Weapon Fire (915). Their DS is also the highest of any Ithzir. They are extraplanar beings.

All Ithzir Adepts have the ability to 'disappear' suddenly when attacked. If this happens, they can show back up at any time and up to 5 rooms away (or more?) from where they disappeared from. When they reappear, and it happens to be where you are, they can instantly cast or swing before you have a chance to do anything, so be aware of this and keep it in mind when hunting OTF.

Ithzir adepts also have the ability to shower the area with motes of lightning, which can be fatal:

An Ithzir adept spreads her arms wide, then claps her hands together sharply, releasing a wave of crackling motes into the air!
You leap to the side as you try to avoid the effulgent volley!
You stumble as you try to avoid a sparkling mote, falling to ground just as it hits you with a powerful jolt!
... 75 points of damage!
Immense electrical bolt finds right eye the perfect conductor to ground out in. A shocking death indeed.
