[QUOTE="Cauldor, post: 6382722, member: 6780177"] [b]Duergar-Drow[/b] Cauldor my main is Duergar-Drow halfbreed fighter with very interesting background IMO. Very simplified version is as follows: Mother Duergar - Father Drow, circumstances are not clear but involved politicking by rival Drow families and Illusion-Geas spell. Obviously the offspring would be despised and destroyed by father if known, raised in secret among Duergar by his grandfather who was Duergar clan chief. Clan was destroyed during attack by Drow forces and Cauldor was taken prisoner by Drow and used as slave gladiator and soldier in war against surface dwellers. Subsequently Cauldor turned against his slave masters during attack on surface Wood Elves and was taken in reluctantly by elves after saving the life of elven prince. Cauldor tries to fit in with elves but does not succeed and after several years is sent to live among Mountain Dwarves who are allies of Wood Elves. Cauldor would find the dwarves to be more of like kindred but would never feel at home or totally accepted by them. As Cauldor reached age of adulthood he decide to venture out into the rest of the world discover his roots and seek revenge against the Drow. He would go on to win fame as ferocious fighter of great renown and would take his revenge against the Drow... blah, blah, blah... Racial bonuses granted - +1 Strength, Constitution and Dexterity, -1 Charisma, Wisdom and Intelligence. That's all for now folks. [/QUOTE]
