I don't know if introductions are the norm here or not, but I thought that I'd give a bit of a hello to all the good folks here who share my love of the Dark Maiden. I don't play NWN (I don't even use windows anymore), and I seldom play D&D, usually preferring sci-fi to fantasy games. Still, a coworker of mine managed to get me interested in his game partly because I started learning about the Drow. I loved the whole dark, gothic feel of the Underdark and the drow, but I wanted to play a good drow, preferably without becoming one of the many Drizzt clones out there (he's ok, but it's been done to death I'm sure).
So in my online research of the dark ones I came across this lovely creature [img:1a2gh6h2]
http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/mi200 ... straee.jpg[/img:1a2gh6h2], which led me to investigate Eilistraee. "Perfect!" I thought, for my character. Then I came here, and suddenly I had a much stronger sense of the goddess, as the whole website has wonderfully captured her "feel" as I see it.
Now I'm hooked on drow and Eilistraee both, and have a place to share that with others. Many thanks to Shir'le for the great work in putting the site together. I hope to have a good and long stay here.
