The real question is where do they fall in Drow Society? Does it depend on who the mother was? Or are they seen as better than slaves just by being born half master race?

Considering Drow are ludicrously xenophobic and backstabbing, very poorly. Probably as something worse than human.

>>53792425
There aren't any. It's not possible. Which is why Drow and Human still exist as Drow and Human rather than "inky folk with leafy ears".

>>53793110
In some settings I've seen dark elves purposely bred to humans to give them warriors with a larger size than the average drow warrior and enhance their armies.

>>53793449
At my current table, any female Drow half elves born in a Matron/Priestess controlled family are raised and trained to be surface infiltrators and spies while the males are used to supplement outpost, raiding parties and canon fodder troops whenever the houses get into violent confrontations. (Cuts back on the pure bred deaths)

The Sword Coast supplement for 5e has a drow variant for half-elf so its not impossible.

If they're from one of the major houses, the answer is "nowhere." It's not that such couplings never exist, mind you; it's just that a Drow noble copulating with a human is heresy of the highest order, and if the council of matrons finds out then it's basically open season on your house.

But, like most things in Drow society, it's only illegal if you get caught without an excuse. Most often than not, half-drow are spirited way to other parts of the underdark to be raised away from other Drow, before returning to their house when they're mature. The house claims that they are simply hiring the half-drow as a servant, and deny all claims that he or she is a blood relative of the house. Everyone know otherwise, but again, that's true for all crimes in Drow society.


If they're born from the general population, it depends on if their mother was a Drow or a human. If the mother was a human, the baby is killed and/or sacrificed as soon as it is born. If the mother is a Drow, then the same thing happens, but in secret. Or, the Drow has an abortion. Or, your PC's edgy half-drow had a mother who was one of those good Drow, and she slipped away into the night and disappeared from the Drow city as soon as she learned she was pregnant. Naturally, these are the most unusual of cases, yet likely to be the one you encounter the most often at the table.

Wait...
Okay so...the first part I understand but...
The general populace mother as a Drow I even understand since by all rights it could be viewed as the product of beastality.

But the human mother? A human would likely be a a slave, and the child of a slave is a slave so now you have a slave who is better than a normal slave probably a born over seer for your slaves. That sounds useful. Plus, the mother is a slave so it's not like she can complain about it. It might even work to her advantage, after all to be the mother of mid level management has to have some perks right?

Chocolate elves are actually redeemed drow in Faerun. They were redeemed by a special ritual via Elistree, so you can basically see a chocolate elf and know that it's a 'good' drow.

>>53792425
Like most half elves, they meet halfway between elves and humans. Elves are lithe, humans are curvy, so Half-elves meet somewhere in the middle.

Consider drow are already attractive if they're from a noble house/not raised in North Korea like conditions, you can probably expect good things from them physically.
>>53794463
Basically this. Half-drow are actually beneficial to many powers, because a half-drow can't usurp them because they won't be recognized. The 'hand outs' a drow gives to a half-drow allows them to keep a half-drow under their control, and if they die/run away/whatever, it doesn't matter -- They're a half and thus expendable

I was under the impression that *any* Drow could go worship Elly, and that there was no visual distinction between them.
Sadly, Faerun has this tendency to be one degree more retarded then I expect it to be, so it wouldn't surprise me.

Rivvil.

Trash.

Scum.

Worthless.

Add other appellations as needed. There was one half-drow in I think a Drizzt book, and she was nothing more than a joke to the drow she joined, no matter how hard she tried to prove herself to them, and when she tried to fuck her way into a position of power or demonstrate skill with a blade to impress them, she was just used and tossed aside. Eventually she got casually booted out when the drow were done with her, and last anybody heard she washed away down a set of river rapids.

Probably survived, maybe not. Drow didn't give a shit, that's for sure.

>>53795855
Any drow can! It's just that there was a special ritual done sometime pre-spell plague that turned a pack of drow into brown-drow (Since brown-drow was their original form). Good drow that weren't present at the ritual, or who didn't worship Elistree (Drizzt) didn't get transformed.

But this child of a slave is an abomination against Lloth and the Drow race. Kill the foul spawn, sacrifice the mother, and give the father 1000 lashes; if he survives, he will have learned a lesson.

Given NWN2, strangely, half-drow are infact NOT that attractive, mods aside.

It's mostly because half elves are humans with pointy ears and sharper defined facial features, appearing more chiseled and can feature low blemishes and facial hair.

Despite this, Half-elves get off easy on the list of race-mixing (save for the divine incident that created Kanchelsis, God of Vampires) as they get a few of their elven heritage's benefits and dietary intake, needing a lot less to eat than most.

I mean, elves technically are an unnatural species that don't belong anywhere even in nature, as they have no actual predators (at least not ones that aren't horrible soul eating abominations from beyond space and time), so yeah- and as for elf opinion on crossbreeding, it's only a negative factor in early dragonlance and in the Kingdoms of Kalamar setting with that "literally Pelinel" ruler around, the general consesus is that they don't really discriminate and let half-elves into their socities. Those opposed to other races made up this piss-small fringe group which isn't even relevant anymore (Like daemonfey) that try to go all humans out! But barely have the numbers or support to pull it off because they're elves

>>53799802
>Doesn't the underdark have trading partners of various flavors though?

Assuming the Realms, it's mostly with other Underdark communities for things available in the Underdark (spider silk for duergar metal, for example). Even if raw calorie intake was solved via trade with, I dunno, a myconic cavern, it doesn't solve the broader nutritional issues like Vitamin C deficiency.

>Nevermind that there's clearly plenty of Clerics abound and a handful of mages who're probably supplementing that food supply

Not really. Create Food and Water is Cleric or Paladin only, and 3rd level, meaning that a cleric needs to be 5th level, or a paladin 17th level, to cast it. 17th level paladins are so rare as to be a statistical nonentity, so functionally we just have clerics to work with.

Create Food and Water creates enough food to feed 15 humanoids for 24 hours. Assuming that there's 300 clerics capable of casting this spell in Menzoberrancan (a number that seems too high to me*, but we'll roll with it), each one casting the spell once will result in enough food for 4,500 people, far short of Menzoberranzan's stated population of 20,000 drow and "thousands of slaves".

This also presumes that a drow priestess would be willing to give up one of her valuable 3rd-level spell slots just to feed the peons beneath her, which I find doubtful.

----
*House Do'Urden made it to 9th House status with just 4 clerics: Malice, Briza, Vierna, and Maya. This was considered enough to be noteworthy, so it can be reasonably presumed that most Houses have less - let's say three on average. The FR Wiki lists 45 Houses in Menzoberranzan; upping this to, say, 64 (8x8), pegs the number of Clerics of Lolth in Menzoberranzan at 192. Remember that worship of a deity other than Lolth is prohibited, so while there's probably non-Lolthite Clerics in the city, they won't make a habit of handing out food.

Among true drow half drow are seen as mongrels, barely better than rivil, and certainly not deserving of respect or consideration.

In the forgotten Realms, pre 4e there was a city named Dambrath ruled by the offspring of outcast drow and human pirates. These half breeds formed an elite ruling caste on the surface via a matriarchal monarchy, though their drow progenitors only saw them as pawns and useful tool.on the surface

Drow hate everything and everyone, but will debased themselves with rivil if it is a means to more power
