Unseen servant conjures a magical lackey whose presence is unerringly ignored by most creatures, except those the caster designates. Only creatures from another plane of existence will recognize the servant for what it is — and can dispel the dweomer by causing it a single hit point of damage. Most earthly creatures, however, won't give the servant a second thought, even if the servant is holding a light source that enables those creatures to see.

This servant is able to perform menial labours of all kinds, from cleaning to carrying equipment, holding a torch or lantern, fetching items from any location or from the ground, opening doors, cleaning, cooking, gathering wood or water, burying a fire, binding wounds, setting up camp, taking a camp down, walking an animal and so on. All of these things are done proficiently, though without any skill.

An unseen servant has 5 action points for the purpose of defining what it can do in a single round. However, none of these action points are needed for the servant's movement.

The servant cannot fight or defend itself; therefore, an enemy has a +6 bonus to hit an unseen servant. When active on amid a melee, it's location must be indicated; other creatures can enter it's hex unimpeded, whereupon the servant is immediately re-located to the nearest empty hex.
