Useful Info

A unique kobold, Sonja the Graceful Assassin usually wields a dagger or short sword of distortion, venom, or draining, as well as curare darts. She has exceptional EV and is faster than average.

Spell set I
Slot¹	Blink	Wizard flag

Sonja may be a pest at range, but if she's wielding a distortion dagger, she's absolutely deadly in melee; her speed and three attacks per action mean she delivers 3-6 distortion strikes before most characters can even respond.
Sonja has very low HP and pathetic willpower, so most disabling Hexes will stop her easily, as will Airstrike or other unavoidable spells. Even with low Evocations skill, a wand of mindburst or paralysis pretty much guarantees her defeat.
Poison resistance will render her darts harmless, but won't do much against her melee attacks.
