Re: Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue

<t>^ This makes sense, and it is the most plausible solution, which also works with having Eilistraee-ML giving away her divinity for the 'sacrifice', because maybe that was the only way to swap places with Corellon (who -btw- isn't doing crap for the struggle for drow freedom: his clerics still kil...

Re: Growing older and cynical

<t>As I see it, cynicism is a natural consequence of how things go in the world. I'd talk about having a realistic vision of things rather than a cynic one, because -lets face it- life and people have no actual value in this world. It's not just how countless people die and suffer -often at the bene...

Re: Living on the surface

<t>What Bhaern said. Also, keep in mind that Eilistraeens wish to prove to the surface races that drow can work together towards the making of a community free from hatred and pointless backstabbing, where people work united and in harmony for a common goal, but where at the same time the individual...

Re: Half-Drow

<r>Drow definitely don't breed true in the FR. Half Drow are not unheard of, on the contrary they even have a whole nation in Southern Faerun: Dambrath (which is where most of half drow in the Realms come from). It's ruled by the Crinti, who are part human, part drow and part half-elf (lol...) grey ...

Re: Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue

<t>^This won't work for me. I can already do that, and playing a campaign is not the only interest people have in the FR. Also, even if they wrote stories, novels etc... about characters set in 1370s they wouldn't be the same as if they were set in 1500s (at least for stories concerning characters t...

Re: Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue

<t>Well, you make valid points. Then, if you're right and the content with E. and V. was cut because of space, there is a good chance that people's request will be listened and the material published as a DDI article, so that WotC could get paid for it (even tho they could've fit easily in the book:...

Re: Character design help!

<t>About the idea of character, the free spirited young elf fits perfectly the role of herald of a new more open minded era (which, according to RoF, is something that the Wood Elves are actually considering in the 1370s), in fact I even supposed Thalon to be that kind of person. It's just natural f...

Re: Character design help!

<t>Well, your original idea can be expanded to explain how your character has come to know Eilistraee and to share her teachings and way of life. <br/> <br/> So, you say that Thalon Mercrow is a member of a clan of Wood Elves who set up an alliance with a group of Moon Elves to unite in a stable com...

Re: Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue

<t>The only thing that prevents the drow from being automatons consists of (natural) personality differences. But look at them: they aren't ''evil'' because they wish (well some of them truly do, but it's something that happens among all races), but because they were indoctrinated starting from thei...

Re: Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue

<t>RotU is Lolth crafting yet another awesome infallible scheme to get her own Weave, wrap Faerun in darkness (literally), and become the new Mystra. Eilistraee and Vhaeraun don't seem to be related to this (and if they were, why would've they cut the content about them from the book, despite author...
