Re: Something I noticed.... *chuckles* maybe I should have explained better my first statment in that post- "I agree with you on the race relations..."
I'm wasn't suggesting that the general populace should or even would have any measure of trust in a Drow. What I was suggesting, is that there are a significant number of influential people (primarily adventurers) who would vouch for and have friends among the Dark Elves. Those who , despite the atrocities of the Drow race, would at least give a Drow the opportunity to prove himself/herself trustworthy.
My own character, Cole, does not trust drow, and was there at the occupation of Spellgard, and when adventurers were being poisoned. He's killed many and points out to any Drow he meets that he has done so. He has, however, developed a working relationship with certain "darkies," even offering them a measure of respect.
There are a significant number of respected people who have seen that the Dark Elves are, in fact, capable of doing good, and that in itself is enough to have hope for their race, however minute that hope is.
Yes, I realize I'm debating with the loremaster himself, although I truly don't disagree with him (not that it would matter if I did). It just is apparent I needed to clarify myself.
