So I am running OotA and we are through three (4-1/2 hour) sessions, currently 1 session into Chapter 2. The players all seem to be excited with the campaign so far and appear to be pleasantly surprised with developments as they unfold. All claimed beforehand they never played and were not familiar at all with the adventure's content though all knew of it's existence as well as the general theme. Additionally, I have planned a few side adventures not in the book but that will tie back into the story.
I have always been fascinated with the Drow goddess, Eilistraee and would really like to work her presence into this campaign. Being the daughter of Lolth who stands for the complete opposite of her mother, as well as the other Dark Seldarine seems like it should have a lot of potential for dramatic twists in this campaign. That 2 of the PCs are Drow on the run from Menzoberranzan, and further have no idea of the existence of The Dark Dancer makes that idea all the more appealing.
There is also a human Hexblade Warlock PC who was kicked out of Hillsfar and was based in Elventree. He was running a mission for the Harpers when he was captured by the Drow along with his Barbarian side-kick. This is also very interesting since there is a shrine to Eilistraee in Elventree. His mission was to deliver a silver chain with a pendant attached to a contact in Silverymoon. The pendant is a depiction of Eilistraee dancing naked with her sword to a full moon in the background.
This is about as far as I have gotten with the Eilistraee plot thread so far. If anyone has any ideas on how I could a chaotic good Drow goddess into OotA, I would very much like to read your thoughts.
