  • Light Drow Medium Humanoid (Elf), Chaotic Good (D20TALK – YOUTUBE)
    Light Drow Medium Humanoid (elf), Chaotic Good (D20TALK – YOUTUBE) Everyone knows the story of how the Drow left the surface world after choosing to follow Lolth instead of a non-evil God. The elves of old and the other races wouldn’t tolerate what they had become, and the Drow were driven to the Underdark. There they have built an evil empire loyal to Lolth and cruelty is what rules in their world. What many people don’t know is that the Drow goddess Eilistraee left with her kin, not because of an evil nature, but to hopefully one day convince the Drow to leave Lolth and rejoin the other elves and above ground races. A small percent of the Drow have chosen to leave Lolth and follow Eilistraee back in the world above. There Eilistraee teaches them everything they need to know to survive. These lessons include hunting, fighting, spell casting, forging weapons and much more. These drow have come to be known as the Light Drow, since they have left the subterranean world below and returned to the world above and they now live in the light. The Light Drow still appear very much like the dark drow with a few exceptions. They no longer possess the very pale eyes which are seen with most drow. Life in the light has returned some of the pigment to the iris. Living in the light has demanded a change in vision and they have adapted. The sunlight doesn’t seem overly bright for them like it does for the Dark Drow and in this adaptation, they have lost some of their darkvision range.
