Drow love

[Quasqueton]

In all seriousness (as serious as a hypothetical question about a fictitious race/species can be): Would you date* a drow? I mean, really?

They are usually imaged as smokin' hot, but that whole culture/personality thing makes any psycho girlfriend or bad date I've ever had really pale in comparison. (No pun intended.)

* “Date” includes . . . wink, wink, nod, nod, say no more. IYKWIMAITYD

I think the problem with this question is that, if we're being serious, no drow would ever date a human. For that matter, I don't think drow even have "dating" with each other, at least not in the familiar sense. More like a power-play that just happens to include mutual attraction and mutual benefit.

Hot or not, you're definitely in "psycho girlfriend" territory. They worship a goddess known for being insanely fickle, and (if you're talking about dating a female drow) come from an oppressively matriarchical culture.

Still, there's probably some fanboy who'd want to be a drow's boy-toy. Right up until the time she fed him to her pet monstrous spiders.

I'd only date a drow "bad girl" according to their society. Which, in this case, probably means a spunky, sweet, kind, and compassionate woman all for gender equality. And who's waiting `til marriage, thankyouverymuch. (Dangit.)

Yes...especially if it were Teagan of Dungeon Crawl, inc!

As long as "whipping the flesh from your weak, human body" isn't one of those "wink"s, sure, why not?

I hate spiders.

Just reading the title on the main page this struck me as some kind of sexually-related thread. Funny about the word association, huh?

I don't think I'd be able to let my guard down around a drow chick long enough to enjoy any kind of "sweet" drow lovin'. I'd be afraid of getting pinpricked with some drow poison and wake up "Loraina Bobbited" at best (and assuming I woke up at all!) or strapped to a sacrificial altar to Llolth about to be sacrificed in a most horrible way at worst.

Fun thread, btw

Sorta like this poor schlub (sixth picture down on the page, counting the picture of the cover of Deities & Demigods):
