[QUOTE="Tyrian_Spellstealer, post: 3456128, member: 36470"] Yeah, theres no Lolth in Eberron, nor do they have a default alignment (very few things really do in Eberron). That said, they do worship a scorpion god called Vulkoor, and because of the savage nature of the continent they live on tend to have a rather savage (not necessarily innately evil, however) personality. Eberron drow would more likely belong to a tribe rather then a house, but thats all assuming they grew up in Xen'Drik. That said, a drow growing up in the shadow marches (whilst extremly rare) would justifiably have no tie to either a good or evil alignment, nor really have heard much about other drow either. Drow on Eberron are not innately evil (nothing is as far as my understanding with the campaign goes), but usually grow up in harsh environments. How they got from Xen'drik to Khroviare though would take some comprehensive back story I guess, but one could argue if they made their way to other planes and met more drow they would rightly be intrigued by how they do things. It really depends what kind of Eberron drow you're playing: a drow that grew up in a tribe in the harsh jungles of Xen'drik, or one that did not. One that did not would indeed have a rather curious nature as to his or her own identity as a drow, and that could be thrown rather wildly into delightful RPing chaos by meeting other planar drow such as from Faerun. On the other hand, a drow who grew up in Xen'drik would probably be similarly as savage as a 'default' dnd Drow due to the similar harsh environments they both grow up in, but definately not similarly as evil. There are many drow tribes in Xen'drik, and whilst small and perhaps dominated by the scorpion god Vulkoor (who is arguably an evil god), not all are bound by such (its a big continent and still rather unexplored by the 'civilised' nations of Khrovaire). The only true similarity between an Eberron Drow growing up in Xen'drik and a default drow would be a dislike for other elven races. Conclusively, an Eberron drow that did not grow up in the Xen'drik nation that managed to find their way into other planes would probably be fascinated and greatly intrigued by how other drow society works. Wether or not that would take them far enough as to adopt a house or mistress, or even a drow religion, is really dependent on the individual character in question. Quite simply, its quite a flexible role. Just thought i'd put in the two cents from the Eberron side of the planes. [/QUOTE]
