The Complete Guide to Drow (Complete Guide)

Drow are the most feared denizens of the underdark, and with good reason. Since the civil war that first exiled the dark elves under the earth, they have been forced to fight for survival on a daily basis. Watched over by dark gods with cruel ambitions, the drow have spent thousands of years evolving into scheming, power-hungry warlords. This book tells their story. It focuses on aspects of the drow that escape coverage in conventional sources. You'll learn about drow mutations and half-breeds, including the half-demon shur and half-goblin urbam; the secretive professions found only amongst the drow, such as the demon-calling Keepers, the shadowy Dark Blades, the perverse Blood Druids, and the half-machine Adamantine Soldiers; the magic, equipment, poisons, and feats of the drow; and the subterranean society of the drow, including the horrific war machines they build from the hollowed-out shells of giant beetles. This book uses the 3.5 edition of the d20 rules set, and is fully compatible with the worlds most popular role playing game.
