You meet Meat-Bix, the hill giant.
A magnificent specimen of a hill giant. He is best described as a wall of
hairy muscle, however, this wall can cross the room in one step and
lazily backhand you through two closed doors. Somewhere within this meaty
edifice is also a hill giant of considerable intellect trying to get
out. Meat-bix can count to ten in a staggering forty secons. Unfortunately,
this additional processing power comes to little use when most obstacles
faced can still be solved by destroying, dismembering or digesting the problem
at hand.

I met him in D18; he can see invisible.
Also, met this in D23:
Zombos, the steel zombie.
A menacing zombie, with fearsome plated armour bolted and nailed directly into what remains of its dead flesh. There is fury and fire in its eyes, and up close it radiates heat, as if there is an actual fire burning inside its decaying form. No one knows where this monster came from or how it came into being, but you will hear terrified whispers and surely nonsensical tales from travellers, that this fire-breathing, steel plated, undead nightmare is the Lord of the Undead, King of the Zombies.
I think regular steel zombies see invisible. They don't, however, breathe fire.
The 'can see invisible' part was referring to Meat-Bix, sorry if the post was unclear.
As for steel zombies, I thought they see invisible too, but both the IGB and the Ancardia wiki don't mention that.

I checked this again to make sure, and the message "The steel zombie seems to search for someone or something" shows up when invisible around a steel zombie. They don't seem to see invisible, then.
Also, regarding Rakki the ratling thief, I also noticed him trying to use magic to no apparent effect. I think I reported that.
You meet Broja, the female dark elven wizard.
Those among the dark elven race who do not have physical strength must either display talents in magic or die young. In the harsh competition of the underground realms, only those elves with great powers survive to become wizards. The black eyes seem to glow with dark power, obscuring elvish features behind a dark haze. She seems pretty powerful but somewhat careless and absent-minded.
Boss monsters should be guaranteed to drop higher metal equipment, a random potion, and a random scroll. High DL boss monsters should be guaranteed to drop adamantium and eternium items. Then there should be a small chance (5-10%?) that they drop an artifact. As it is right now, there seems to be very little reward for killing boss monsters.
Recently just killed a named Acid Vortex near the cat king's level. Don't even remember if he dropped anything. If he did, it was shit.
It's hard to believe that such [a] disgusting creature exists. This dark-green centipede-like beast possesses dangerously looking claws that seem to be made of some outworldish metal rather than chitin. They are covered with a layer of thick gray slime.
Poisons, ignores armor.
You steal a scroll labelled HITME. The orc hits you.
You meet "Dally" Dayling Sequin, the female master swordsman. Although clearly fit and agile, this youthful female swordsman is relatively plain looking - even for a human. Despite this, she wears finely crafted armour made out of displacer beast hide, and is carrying a keen and clearly master-worked blade in each hand. Then, with a smile, she is suddenly standing right in front of you - with tiny motes of gold floating around her like snow as she appears!
Teleports, disarms. Drops gold and two short swords (can't identify their quality yet but both weigh 30s so probably nothing special.. Would be nice if they were 'of devastation' and 'of penetration' though )
