[QUOTE="Herzog, post: 4235320, member: 25696"] mmm. Two campaigns I'm running: 1. Wrath Of The Immortals (OD&D/RCD&D campaign). In Mystara, there are underground elves, called Shadow Elves or Schattenalfen (depending on the location) that have pale skin, white hair, and are evil. I introduced both mindflayers and drow during an adventure where evil, gigantic (and in hindsight) pseudonatural creatures forced into an eternal slumber by the immortals where transferring some of their power to humanoids to attempt to escape the curse. There was an octopus-like creature producing small octopi that people had to start wearing as a kind of hat. Slowly, it would consume the skull, and replace the outside of the head, transforming the humanoid into a mindflayer. (I lost 1 character to that due to a rather unfortunate sequence of missed and saved saving throws) A second, spiderlike creature was performing simmilar experiments with the Shadow Elves, replacing their white skin with some kind of dark substance, turning them into Drow. I haven't had a chance to do more with them up to now, partly because the campaign has gotten into a rut, and playing once a year or less has become the standard..... 2. Time Campaign. Campaign run by alternating DM's, each running the same set of characters in each time a more recent period, starting at the stone-age. My time period as DM: early iron age, celtic setting. I introduced the land of the Faeries, where the elves are a little bit different from standard D&D elves. -They are evil. -They are fey/lycanthropes (think lycanthrope with cold iron weakness instead of silver weakness) -They live in a kind of parallel world, and are trying to take over ours. Not really drow, but interesting enough to share I thought, and this is as good a place as any. Herzog [/QUOTE]
