Actually, I tested it again. It really is possible to "activate gnolls without activating Drizzt" and have the gnolls kill him while he stands there doing nothing. The EE clearly made some effort to prevent this kind of exploit, but didn't exactly manage that. Drizzt has a block of code that looks like this:

OnScreen(Myself) => Activate gnolls to attack Drizzt

Apparently the trigger OnScreen is triggered even when he's still in fog of war, and this triggers the gnolls to start attacking him. This block is also written in a way such that Drizzt actually gets stuck at this block and doesn't do anything else if you never let him see you. Otherwise, his WDASIGHT script would make him attack anything that attacks him until that target is dead. I rather doubt this is an "intentional oversight", but rather just poorly coded AI.
