Drow

Drow are infused with the magic of Lolth—the Queen of Spiders—and the Underdark, an underground realm of wonders and horrors rarely seen on the surface above. They are at home in shadows and, thanks to their innate magic, learn to conjure forth both light and darkness. They tend to have stark white hair and onyx skin of many hues. Their eyes can be red or white.

​

The society of the drow is a matriarchal one in nature, in reverence to Lolth. From the very beginning of their lives, they are plunged headfirst into a system of politics, deception, manipulation, cruelty, and ruthlessness. They are taught that the surface elves scorned them, that Lolth saved them, and that it is their duty and their pleasure to enact their due revenge upon their elven kin as frequently as possible.

Lolth's Web

Having lived your life in the cruel society of drow, you are trained to be keenly aware of your surroundings and to deceive others. You are proficient in Deception and Perception.

​

Trance

Elves don’t need to sleep. Instead, they meditate deeply, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. While meditating, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that non-elves do from 8 hours of sleep (a long rest).

​

Drow, through their connection to Lolth, have lost the ability to peer back into the memories of their past lives, though they can still experience the memories of their current life.

The worshipers of Eilistraee mostly consisted of those drow who hoped to escape the danger and darkness of the Underdark and Lolth's evil, taking back their place in the surface world. However, in line with her ideals, Eilistraee would welcome beings of all races (though, among her non-drow followers, elves, humans, and especially half-elves were the most numerous). They shared the desire of seeing all races living in harmony, without pointless discrimination or wars, and worked towards that goal (and those among them who were drow also fought to build their own place on the Realms above).

​

After her return to the world, Eilistraee bestows the power to her most devout of followers to bless those who wish to leave behind the hatred and darkness of their past. Removing much of Lolth's corrupting influence and forever leaving their eyes a shade of purple.
