Spell Like Abilities + Ability Mod. RSS

I was reading the Spell-like Ability paragraph but i couldnt find anything about the Ability Mod. that someone has to add to the spell-like ability DC.

The Drow for example what Ability Mod. do they use? I didnt find anything about that at the Drow description.

And btw, spell-like ability's DC is
1)10 + Half the creature's HD/Level + Ability Mod.

or

2)10 + Spell Level + Ability Mod.?

SLA (unless otherwise specified) use p304:

10 + Spell Level + CHA Modifier

If the ability says "Racial HD" then you have no racial HD as a Drow.

At the Drow noble cleric lvl3 example we can read:

1/day—divine favor, dispel magic, suggestion (DC 14).

and that Drow has the following ab.scores:

Str 12, Dex 17, Con 12, Int 10, Wis 17, Cha 12.

So according to the rule you posted above, how comes the 14 DC for the suggestion spell? 10+2+?

10 + 3 (p350 Suggestion is a 3rd level spell) + 1 (CHA 12)
