Drow

The Drow are a rarely seen race, sticking to their caverns below the earth known as the Below. It is believed the Drow are becoming extinct due to their culture of serving the women and radical beliefs in a spider god.

Drow are most often viewed as evil beings, elves tainted with corruption from their first visit to The Deadlands, now practicing cult worship. While most Drow fit the description as a need for survival and to please their women and spider queen, this is not always the case. Drow have integrated into some societies around the world and even into respectable positions.

History
During the Dawn War, the goddess Lolth grew jelous of the other gods with mortals to command.

He created the first Drow for Lolth before she took advantage of his weakened state and slaughtered him, absorbing his essence. The Drow were born out of madness and it spread among them for generations. Lolth fled to another plane with what Drow she could gather before Annora became sealed, however a large portion of their populous was trapped on Annora.

During the time of The Fall, the now godless Drow that remained on Annora saw their own advantages, slaughtering one another to gain power while praying on the elves and dwarves war for sacrifices to their goddess. The Drow believed the absence of their goddess was temporary and sought to overthrow her priests and take their positions while she was not watching. This caused bloody conflict in near civil war for the Drow and spread to the surrounding areas.

The elves began noticing the losses and decided they must destroy the Drow or risk losing the war with the dwarves. Easily sweeping through the dwindling numbers of the Drow, only a fraction of them survived.

After the end of The Fall, the Drow had miraculously regained a society in various portions of the world, finding new leadership and an evolved and somewhat adapted culture. But old habits are hard to break and the race is living off of the surface dwelling races while killing themselves slowly in the Below...
