Drow

Drow are the dark, sinister cousins of elves. They were once part of the idealistic community of elves that roam the forests today, but have since moved under the ground, building vast subterranean cities and complex networks of caves. Drow have black skin and white hair. Drow, like all elves, are quick and nimble, but not particularly strong or sturdy. Drow are known for the superior minds, and drow mages rank as some of the most deadly spellcasters in the realms.

Being creatures of darkness, drow can see in the deepest shadow, but are very sensitive to bright lights. They take extra damage from light-based attacks and fight slightly worse in heavily-lit areas. Conversely, they receive slight combat bonuses in darkness.
