I was in the SMC with my L3 Orc Paladin. I kept getting the message,
Something strikes at you from nowhere! There was no damage done to me.

Also, what messages are generated when you use backstabbing, etc. I got
the message: You hit the orc, mutilating it horrible and turn it into a
mangled heap. I was using an everburning torch and a spear. There are
also some goodies in the SMC, for example, an adamantium two-handed
sword(+12,3d5+12) [-1,+0], and a girdle of carrying.

Hmm... that's new to me. Highly unlikely that it's an invisible
creature, in any case, since you were only level 3... unless a kobold
got a hold of a potion of invisibility or something. You might have to
give more details about your PC's status, equipment, and stuff.

That mutilation message is generated if you hit a creature with a torch
and manage to burn it. When you use backstabbing successfully on a
creature that hasn't noticed you yet (and only on such a creature), you
get the message "You stab/splatter the foo" (stabbing with a thrusting
weapon like a dagger or spear, splattering with a blunt weapon like a
mace or fist).

Nice haul, by the way. It's not particularly unusual to find nice items
like those in the SMC.

I've had this happen too. I've never actually seen a mob drink a potion,
but that's the only explanation I have; it was an invisible large orc
that become visible a little after it started attacking me. (it didn't
drop a cloak of invisibility or anything like that)

I've seen a kobold drinking potion of invisibility.
