One small tiny helper, camp often. You can miss out on companions conversations. Not critical, but there is so much you can miss in the game.
"Drows are misunderstood" Don't fall for that. The vast majority of Drow society is evil to the core. Lolth is not only a Chaotic Evil Godess, she's also one of the major powers in the Abyss, the Chaotic Evil plane of existance.
Drows are slavers and have a very well deserved reputation for raiding surface and Underdark settlements alike, enslaving some and killing the rest - except for other non-Drow elves who are always killed in the most brutal way possible.
The game could imply the false impression that Seldarine Drow (for referance: The Seldarine are the elven pantheon) are a large faction among Drow society - that is not the case. They are not even a large group among the non-Lolth worshippers. Most non-evil Drow are followers of Eilistraee, Goddess of beauty, dance, song, freedom, moonlight, swordwork, and hunting.
The largest group of non-Lolth worshipping Drow however are the followers of Vhaeraun, the God of drow males, evil activity on the surface, territory, thievery, and arrogance.
The other members of the Drow pantheon are Ghaunadaur, God of all things subterranean, jellies, oozes, outcasts, rebels, ropers and slimes (who somehow managed to gain some Drow followers even though he is originally not a Drow or elven god); Kiaransalee, Goddess of undead, necromancy, and vengeance; Selvetarm, God of drow warriors and slaughter, and two new additions to the Drow pantheon: Malyk, god of chaos, rebellion, and wild magic; and Zinzerenza, Godess of assassination, illusion, and lies.
Religious sacrifices of intelligent beings is a common practice among Drow as well.
Their society is structured into Houses which have a strict ranking. The way to climb up the ladder is by eliminating houses above the own rank, but these attacks are only valid if all nobles of the attacked house are killed. If even one survives the attacking house that failed to assassinate all the nobles is eliminated.
This Drow society is not limited to Faerun and the Forgotten Realms setting btw, it's the same in other D&D settings like Greyhawk.
Unfortunately modern WOTC puts gray paint over everything so you can't have pure evil races since it's deemed offensive
very cool
My comment was removed love that yt I'll say again unfortunately wotc is painting gray over everything no evil races sure there can be outliers but majority will be evil
@@AneirinRPG I'm actually not a fan of this "evil races, good races" concept (except for demons and devils and the like who are per definition evil - or good in the case of angels and the like - and represent entire realms of existance that stand for specific alignments). In those cases it is perfectly fine.
The problem with this "evil races" concept is that it is extremely hypocritical. Goblins and orks for example are labelled evil and humans as good...even though humans are just as aggressive and warlike as the other two species.
Even worse - in most of the typical old fashioned adventures (take The Keep on the Borderlands from 1979 for example) the adventurers are actually the aggressors invading the homes of on, humans who haven't hurt anyone during the course of the adventure. So who is the actual evil part in this equation? Yep, the adventurers.
So if we follow this "good race, evil race" concept humans, dwarves, elves, halflings and gnomes (the usual character races) are for sure on the evil side as far as adventurers go. Humans in particular do a lot of f*d up s*t in the game worlds and cannot be considered good or even neutral.
Or take the Paladin class as an example. Per rules paladins have to be lawfull good, but are they? The descriptions talk a lot about Paladins riding across the land and whenever they find a "dangerous" or "evil" creature they attack in many official descriptions and definitions. The problem is...that is an evil action, not a good one. If a "crusading" Paladin stumbles across an oh so evil orc village, use their ability to detect evil and then start killing everyone regardless if the inhabitants did attack anyone....that's not a representation of Lawfull Good, that is a Chaotic Evil action.
@@Hauke-ph5ui While I agree with most of what you said, Paladins have not had an alignment requirement since 2014, when 5e began.
Anyway...
The problem with "Evil Races" and "Good Races" is the combinations of substitutional racism, where a fantasy race is a stand-in for whatever group the author / DM doesn't like, and the fact that "evil races" and "good races" pretty much takes AWAY the concept of Free Will.
More appropriately, there could be "Evil Societies" and "Good Societies". Since Lloth is, herself, "Evil", and controls much of Drow society with an iron grip, she encourages the chaos of the Houses, plus evil answers to matters. Another culture might hold life and freedom in high regard, leading to a majority of its citizens leaning "Good".
dyed my hair a ton of colors, but my fav has been black and green and black and pink. i love pops of color within my natural hair color (dark brown/black)
your hair looks really beautiful!
I’m not sure if multi classing is only available in a custom run, but if not, I’m surprised no one told you you could multi class as a druid and a ranger once you get further into the game
Yay! Someone said it
@@AlexisTwoLastNames wait that’s amazing!! I hope that ends up being the case! That would be so cool!
Take your time and go slow
I stuck through it, when you paid no attention through character creation, just to see if you were going to be another, "let's chat with everyone," and not pay attention. But you can't even WATCH the cinematics, which tells me you won't watch the dialogues, which tells me you won't watch the story. Stick to twitch-with-friends, where no one cares if you actually play the game.
