Prestige classes for Drow Wizards (good drow that is)

I was looking to customize my profile in the class portion with a prestige class. However when I looked I cant become a pale master (Eilistraee would be mad/sad) and arcane scholar of candle keep is human only. Help a fellow follower of the dark maiden out here!

I'm going to guess that Mind Bender is kind of out of the running, too.

Actually, I think here are a few of the best prestige classes for a Follower of the Dark Maiden, in my opinion:

[b:226ifwdt]Arcane Devote[/b:226ifwdt] (Players Guide to Faerun)
Arcane Hierophant (Races of the Wild)
[b:226ifwdt]Divine Oracle[/b:226ifwdt] (from the Complete Divine, but I don't think it's limited to only divine spells)
Exalted Arcanist (Book of Exalted Deeds)
Fatespinner (Complete Arcane)
Harper Mage (Magic of Faerun)
Incantrix (Player's Guide to Faerun)
[b:226ifwdt]Loremaster[/b:226ifwdt] (DMG)
[b:226ifwdt]Master Astrologer[/b:226ifwdt] (Dragon 340)
[b:226ifwdt]Void Disciple[/b:226ifwdt] (Complete Arcane)
War Weaver (Heroes of Battle)

Looking at your tag, the ones I think are most appropriate that you may want to consider are in [b:226ifwdt]bold[/b:226ifwdt]. Hope this helps.

the arcane heirophant is a druid/wizard prc........

you could also add
initiate of the sevenfold veil: complete arcane
Frostmage: frostburn
master specialist: complete mage

I forgot about the Master Specialist. That's another good one.

The frostmage, only works for Drow from the Silver Marches, in my opinion, and rarely for that, since Drow traditionally prefer things warm.

prefer things warm.... when is burning things an option for those players who like to dish out freezer burn, dropping the temperature to supernatural lvls...

also:
Elemental Savant: complete arcane
stormcaster: storm wrack
that sandcaster one in sandstorm

EDITED: there is also the Abjurant Champion from complete mage,
phantom knight out of some eberron sourcebook too..

I also forgot the Argent Savant. The force (energy type, not the Jedi thing) specialist would be another for a more combat oriented mage, but as our friend here appears to be more interested in the esoteric aspects of magic, I would still go with the ones I highlighted in bold.

[color=darkred:2w5c65c7]I can't BELIEVE you guys didn't mention the best one ever!

WILD MAGE!!!!!! (Complete Arcane)

Initiate of the Sevenfold Veil, Argent Savant and Elemental Savant are cool as well. (and yes, I know those three were already mentioned)

Wild Mage+Deck of Many Things= VERY SCARY CHARACTER[/color:2w5c65c7]
