Let me see ....When we played through City of the Spider Queen, our DM also launched a massive drow invasion of the surface realms.You see, the Kiaransalites had succeeded in destroying most of Llolth's followers in Szith Morcane and Maermidrya. However, the surviving Spider Kissers decided to retreat topside and were causing trouble there; they had already infiltrated the forest and were preparing to carve out a new realm in the Night Above at the expense of Shadowdale.Essentially, the DM placed additional drow on the surface and assumed that we arrived at the Catacombs of Jergal just in time to pick up the stragglers (the big fish slipped past us).So ... our party was stuck fighting Kiaransalites in the Underdark and Llolthites on the surface, while using highly adroit teleportation magic (we had insane Spellcraft skills, and two skilled wizards) to go back to Waterdeep periodically and recoup.We succeeded in wiping out I'rae and most of the surface invaders (and their orc thralls). We also looted so much mithral from the Underdark that we actually caused a glut in the mithral market in Waterdeep.Still, what else what would one expect from a group that was bankrolled by the Church of Kelemvor? Trust me, we were thorough._________________________________________________________________Anyway, I do not know if my puffed-up narrative gives you ideas, but I hope it was interesting for you to read.You are running a great campaign; I wish you the best of luck with it.</blockquote>
