miltonyorkcastle - 2/9/2006 10:40 PM I agree with you on the race relations. I would, however, point out, that since you've been gone, there have been several Drow characters who have had a hand in major workings of the world for good, and as such, have gone a long way in building a hope and trust for their race among the surface dwellers. The open wedding between Sahala and Ael was a prime example of how much more trusting the people have become of the dark elves.

I beg to differ. Strongly.
The last five years or so drow, to name a few things,:
1) Put siege to Hlint 2) Stole the remains of Toran's First Paladin and turned him into an undead general 3) Poisoned numerous wellknown adventurers so they wouldn't interfere with their schemes 4) Laid siege to and eventually occupied the city of Spellgard for several months 5) Did several other nasty things which I won't reveal at the moment
So it is not even close that the drow have some kind of better standing or reputation during the last few years, especially not with the general population.The marriage and the fact that a handfull of drow were involved in some good deeds pale in comparisonto the centuries of evilness (well documented in the history and folk tales if I say so myself). Hope and trust? I don't think so, not by a long shot. The general populace, and adventurers would be good to follow, is distrustful of drow and rightly so.
