While enlarged, Horgar is Large, doubles his damage dice on Strength-based weapon attacks (included in the attacks), and makes Strength checks and Strength saving throws with advantage. If Horgar lacks the room to become Large, he attains the maximum size possible in the space available.
Invisibility (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest).Horgar magically turns invisible until he attacks, casts a spell, or uses his Enlarge, or until his concentration is broken, up to 1 hour (as if concentration||concentrating on a spell). Any equipment Horgar wears or carries is invisible with him.
Multiattack.Horgar makes two melee attacks.

Deepking Horgar Steelshadow V

Deepking Horgar V ascended to the throne in 1372 DR. He is a ruthless and canny ruler who engages in secret meetings with all the city's councils and clans to keep their members guessing what he's up to, hands out favors out of the blue, and lets it be known that he'll use any trick to maintain his hold on power. This includes hiring assassins through third parties to take care of potential troublemakers. This strategy keeps all the city's factions at each other's throats and out of Horgar's way.

Like many other duergar in the city, Horgar Steelshadow V has been touched by the demon lords' madness. Roll on the Indefinite Madness table in chapter 8|DMG|8|Madness of the Dungeon Master's Guide to determine Horgar's flaw.
