Should Drow be more "Norse" because of their origin?

Should Drow be more "Norse" because of their origin in Norse mythology?

jh

Their origin is not Norse at all.

"Dark Elves", well yes. "Drow", no. Your terminology is off here.

Actually, "drow" comes from the Shetlands IIRC ... so they should be Scots!

-The Gneech

In that case Drow should obviously wear kilts, carry claymores and ride into battle on Shetland Ponies.

This looks about as good a time as any to table my argument that we have been mistaking the character of dwarves for many, many years. Dwarves do not have Scottish accents, they have French Canadian accents!

It would certainly make them scarier! Particularly if they were all the standard PlayElf model that drow tend to be now.

Well, why ask about drow specifically? Why not them other not-so-dark elves?
