Unlike my Orc-brained allies (imagine ... A Drow charging an Ogre. Lolth must have been retching in Her web to see that), I don't try to be a glorious heroic combatant. I much more prefer to win slowly, quietly and without risk to myself. It's much more satisfying: Watching a sub-Drow fool run around, looking for me (the splendid person who cut and then tricked it) in vain, frantic, all while bleeding to death in his ignorant rage... it warms that cold little stone which passes for my heart.
If your allies are stupid enough to simply charge the ogre like a bunch of humans, its baffling that they survived to adulthood to begin with.
Doesn't really matter, still Drow Noble :) That fundamentally changes just about every class (at-will levitation, deeper darkness, faerie fire, etc), so even if everyone is one, it's still a horrible way to prove a point.
Getting sneak attack with at-will DD and FF is trivially easy.
The rogue doing well as a drow noble isn't a function of him being a rogue. It's due to him being a drow noble. Everything is a good choice as a drow noble.
I must agree with Cheapy on this one. Being a drow fundamentally changes tactics, behavior, and effects. We're just better than those lesser surface races, and "faerie" elves.
Being a weaker character class is less debilitating if you are a stronger race. I will say though, you probably would have been better off rolling a ninja.
*Also. Is this a Pbp? I've been wanting to run/play in a drow campaign for years, but I simply can't find a group of players competent or interested enough to attempt it. Its a very different beast than your typical dungeon crawl.
