The Shadar-kai are NEVER going to be the next drow

[Kishin]

Is it really true, as alluded to upthread, that Shadar-Kai will "shudder with pleasure" when you spear them, and otherwise get off on being chopped up in combat? Because if so that's totally disgusting.

They need to feel pain to feel a connection to life, and to not simply fade into restless shade-like nonentities in the Shadowfell. So, yes, I'd say.

Also completely unrelated, but Queenrsryche != grunge. They're much more of a prog band.
