> Split from the Surface. Once, the Elven Empire reigned supreme over Oshmondu. The dark elves lived in unison with all the other elves, and the many houses formed an intricate network of alliances. However, the dark elves eventually came to revering demons, which caused a great war of secession which resulted in the drow living forever beneath the earth, in the Caverealm.
> Gezneth, Home of the Drow. In a huge cavern filled with columns of stone, many artfully swung dark houses line the rock. This place is Gezneth, the greatest city of the drow. Many smaller cities and fortresses can be found spread around the Caverealm, but all of them have house representation in the great City of Spiders.
> Children of Darkness. Drow have black or white skin, with accordingly red or black eyes. They have white hair.
