Adamant is an old word for diamond or rather the word 'diamond' is descended from 'adamant' (although my dictionary says that adamant was also used to refer to an extremely hard steel or a lodestone). The modern mineral as far as I can find out is Adamite.

They are bandits and assasins. There was an article by Sandy about them in the Glorantha-Con IV booklet.

Chief of the Moonmasks (an unofficial lunar secret police in pavis). He also has some alleged relations with the Krarsht cult and/or the Black Fang.
