The chaos diplomat is a unique NPC in ADOM. He is found in bounds in the grand hallway of the Ice Queen Domain, and will assign PCs that chat with him to slay the ice queen.
One of the ice queen's quests is to dispose of the chaos diplomat. After the player attacks him, he frees himself of his bonds and attacks. He is extremely fast, attacks several times per turn, and his attacks always bypass PV, making him extremely deadly in melee. Hitting him with a thrown potion of cure corruption can instantly kill him, and even failing that, it takes away his armor-punching ability. This will incur an alignment drop unless he is angered by other means first. Other ranged attacks can also be used to take care of him safely. The nature of the ice queen levels allows the PC to freely gain distance by switching levels and then entering from the opposite side.
He ignores water, so simply breaking/melting the ice around him does not prevent him from pursuing the PC.

Monster memory[]
A heavy man with a terrifying expression, moving with speed and power, the chaos diplomat exists to spread Chaos wherever he travels. At first look he's just a member of a militant monastic order; many such organizations teach people the art of weaponless fight as well as a variety of mystic techniques. But this monk is different: his eyes gleam with malice and pain, and his body moves as though it were bent slightly out of shape. And some parts hidden by his robes seem to move with a will of its own. His tongue is unusually glib for a monk and his whispering insinuations create a taste for the glory of Chaos and its many benefits.
