Well we also know the Absolute is a single person, female I believe. I am assuming some sort of Drow matriarch(tend to be powerful wiz/sor/clerics) although that is speculation. Perhaps a Drow matriarch got her hands on some forgotten netherese magic and is making a powerplay?
I’m quite sure that the Absolute is an entity for more powerful than a mundane Drow.
I wouldnt call a Drow Matriarch a "mundane" drow. Then tend to be exceptionally powerful, usually having to fend off rivals (including blood relatives) their entire life.

Also why female? Is there any indication for it?
No, I think the Absolute has some ties to Bhaal if it's not Bhaal himself. I don't have a lot of evidence, but it seems likely to go there based on the dead three lore spread out around the game. And it would be great
There are several lines in the goblin camp and other places that refer to the absolute as a "she". Could be my faulty memory, I'll have to wait til I speak to Priestess Gut again in my current play through.
