The extra dialogue you get with the Drow twins when you play as a Drow
I like the idea that the twins are Seldarine Drow. I like to think their whole backstory of being courtesans in Menzoberranzan was made up to make them seem exciting to their clients and that they're lying about everything about themselves, including being twins lol.

Drow Lore 🕷️ Eilistraean vs. Lolth-sworn Drow Worldview
Tumblr media
While reading Condemnation, I stumbled across this fragment where a priestess of Eilistraee, who is also a former priestess of Lolth, has a little dispute with a Lolth-sworn drow. I think it shows really well the fundamental differences between their worldviews:
"I want to challenge you to do something (...) Imagine, for a moment, that you could live in a place where you can walk the streets without fearing an assassin’s dagger in your back. Imagine that your friends - real friends - want nothing more from you than the pleasure of your company, that your sisters cherish your accomplishments instead of resenting your successes, and your children are not murdered for an accidental failing. Imagine that your lovers seek you out for who you are, and not your station or influence. Imagine that your goddess asks you to celebrate her with your joy, not your terror."
"There is no such - (...) I can’t imagine such nonsense. It’s an empty fantasy, signifying nothing. We’re not meant for such things; no one is, not dark elf, not light-elf, not even the insipid humans. Only a fool dwells on dreams."
"You must entertain impossible dreams all the time. All thinking creatures do. Perhaps you’ve dreamed of having your enemies in your power, or of a lover you couldn’t take, or of rising to the station you truly merit. (...) If you can imagine the destruction of all your enemies at once, (...) you can certainly imagine the faithfulness of a friend or a goddess pleased by your loyalty, not your sacrifice."
"All gods demand sacrifice. You delude yourself if you think Eilistraee is any different. Perhaps you’re simply too weak-minded to understand your bonds." (Condemnation, R. Baker)
🕷️ Apparently, Lolth-sworn drow reject the concepts of genuine friendship, selflessness, trust or love because they are taught that such things have no place in the 'real' world. They are convinced that other (weak-minded) people cling to these "empty fantasies" and "nonsense" because they are too stupid or afraid to accept the world as it really is.
An average Lolth-sworn drow, confronted with a different point of view, would probably be like: foolish creature, what kind of world do you think we're living in? 😔

Larian needs to give us dancing with Halsin in a future patch. They are really missing an opportunity with it.

Kezber, my drow cleric of Selune. Has a warm cast to his skin that lets him pass as a wood elf. Previously street urchin, went directly from streets into being shut up in a monastery. only just barely bags Astarion by being able to cheerfully lie the party out of trouble while looking beatific + getting righteously upset and hitting people with a morningstar. because otherwise Kezber is like "🥺" about every god damn person's issue and it's exhausting.
activate spirit guardians➡️wander around battlefield like a holy wood chipper. Anyone far away is harassed with spectral holy bludgeoning weapon.
Clinically unable to relinquish books, all books go into the camp chest and no he doesn't care that they weigh more than the entire party put together, he needs them. Makes sure all camp meals are nutritionally balanced so it's not just 40 points worth of booze or one (1) owlbear egg, put the owlbear egg down, that's for a quest, wtf are you doing just eating one giant egg for the day, you weirdos. Dyes everyone's things so they compliment their coloring.

Prayer to Eilistraee from BG3
Tumblr media
I found this prayer to Eilistraee in Dedications to the Pantheon - below the original English version is my attempt to translate it to drow language.
I used drow name tables from #267 Dragon Magazine to translate "Silver Lady" into something that would look more like a proper name / title than like a literal translation of "silver" and "lady". So, female prefix May- (beautiful, beauty, silver) + female suffix -inil (lady). I really like this result ❤️
Drow version of the prayer written in 3e Espruar would look like this...
Tumblr media
...and High Drowic version - I suppose this script would not be used for Eilistraean prayer, but I really like how it looks:

If you need more info on D&D drow scripts, feel free to check my other post with some ideas 🙂
