And that sacrifice used flippantly is the most heinous. And such is put into cooking the Sacrificial Sustenance.Drow chefs craft special foods, and practice fell magics while doing so. When the recipe is almost finished, they kill a sacrifice. Usually at the height of some emotion - fear, ecstasy, despair. The essence of the individual, and their last moments, are drawn into the particular morsel. Those that eat the food then experience the last moments, the emotional thrill ride, of the victim. These foods are served at a buffet table at the parties.Chicken, Menzoberranzan-style:In on eof the drow novels I read, there was a house that played a particular kind of game. They would go to the edge of the huge chasm and create a globe of darkness (and layer silence over it). Then two members would step off the edge and levitate into the sphere. The game was that you had to out-wait your opponent. If you came out of the sphere too early, you would be killed. However, you couldn't wait too long, or else your innate levitation ability would give out and you would plummet. Some sort of lethal game like this might be appropriate. Especially if it's a spectator sport. The circumstances, however, I am not certain of.</blockquote>
