What about detect alignment spells? And does they use any magic items? Or supernatural abilties?
He's unaligned, so immune to the former. As for magic items, none that leave an aura after initial use. I think he
has a few supernatural abilities, but for different things than stealth.
How did you pull that off? Dark Whisper Gnome reduced to diminutive or fine size?

(Note: While using Ghost Step, this is made redundant as ethereal creatures are entirely inaudible.)
The invisibility is from the class feature for level 10 ninjas, Ghost Step. There's probably a more straightforward way of going about it, but this is from a partial gestalt game, where certain tiers of classes can gestalt. (wizards and such can't, rogues and such can gestalt with NPC classes, and stuff like Swashbuckler and CA Ninja can fully gestalt.) I don't think this really
needs the ninja levels, since all they add is Sudden Strike damage (which speeds things up) and etherealness that can be easily acquired from somewhere else. Thrown on top of this is a level of Hellbreaker, a prestige class that's all about being sneaky around demons. They get a few cool features, like immunity to telepathy, hide in plain sight, etc. Collar of Umbral Metamorphosis also grants Hide in Plain Sight, but that source can't be used in sunlight. I've always had an impassioned hatred for whisper gnomes, so I forwent that. The race is human for another feat, since those are handy. Shrinking would give yet more bonuses, but it seems completely ridiculous to shrink down to the size of a pea and start stabbing people in the neck. I'm optimizing, not munchkining. ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^)
Off that tangent, soulknives are rad. Do you have a link to the fix you're talking about? I might let a player of mine in meatspace use such a thing.
Probably missed
