What of having the chance of something bad happen if you use raise dead? say a 1/4 chance you can summon undead or something. sure you might be able to raise your loved one but on the other hand you might have a zombie to deal with. jusst an idea

James jacob, where does it say that drow are elves that were warped by coming incontact with rovagog?

But we can build on the past :) asiding from wondering if Abrogail has a consort or something along that line, I am also wondering if there is a list of leaders of Cheliex, ie the family tree of house thrune.

I got to wonder if abrogail II has a consort or anyone she has the eye for. Yes, I know she is she young but still, I would wager she is probably considered an adult if needing experience in leadership.

check this article out. It is an old planescape article that tells the differences between the succubi and the enryies.

I too would like to see some of the art, as well as the artist who did the picture((to see their other work))

today's blog tells about where they got ideas for taldor, that being said, I myself can not wait to get this one.

I do not have this book yet, I hope to but I can't wait to take a look at it. How does it compare to the Draconomicon, the 3rd edition one btw?

For me the one thing, I would change is the Shin'Rakorath, I never quite grasped the concept of them being elven mercenaries if they are to be traditionalists. I myself would change them to be a bit like the Eldreth Velthura from the Forgotten Realms. The difference is that the shin'rakorath, would be all about preserving Elven culture and keeping the status quo, a bit more secretive then they were detailed, but not as secretive as the EV were described. It does work to the adventage that both the Shin'rakorath and the Eldreth Velthura have a secret council leading their respective organizations, winter council for the Shin'Rakorath and the Vel'Nikeryma for the EV.

James, I have two questions. the first is who is doing the art for the second darkness campign?
The second is what kind of demon is the pet demon?

There are a variety of instruments bards could choose to be good instead of being a good singer. For instance, they could play the flute, violin, drum or any other instrument that would make sense for their character. You also must remember that in cultures where they do not have a literally tradition, their history would be passed down orally. For instance I can see orcish bards recalling tales of great orc warriors fighting in Gruumsh’s name and the victories of the tribe.

Speaking of orcs and Gruumsh is Gruumsh OGL material or is the chief orc god off-limits for pathfinder?

What do I like about the drow? I like them being dark, mysterious, cruel and evil. As others have said they are known for their treachery. They are supposed to be cunning elves who have decades and centuries to plan there revenge. They are also a magical people; dark forbidden magic being common place should be there. An idea I have used for my own drow city is that drow levitate to get to places, since nobles are said to have the ability to levitate, they have created several areas in the city where you can only get up there by levitating.

As for what drow favorite city is? Menzoberranzan is the one that has been detailed the most. But I prefer the city I made up, Cheth Rrhinin. A city of Lolth worshipers that lived in all kind of web based housing, including trap-door like webs. If you lived in a house that was made out of anything other then webs, you were either a non-drow or poor.

What do I not like about the drow? Drizzt clones for one. Yes, Drizzt himself is cool but he has created countless clones who wish to be like him. Good drow in general seem to be counter to what the drow are. I hope that anything dealing with the drow keeps them being the evil creatures they are.

What do drow eat? That is a difficult question. First what is available down below in the Darklands? I would say fish would be a staple of their diet, but also things like eel would also be available. A lot of strange deep sea creatures might be sold in drow markets. I have also read that they eat rothe, yak like creatures. Elaine’s “torture tenderizing” idea is neat and fits well with the drow in my opinion. I can also see bats being eaten by the drow.

Who has done the drow right? I have only seen the forgotten realms version of the drow so I can only comment that I have enjoyed what I have seen from them. Yet I would like to see more about the drow who are not the odd man out. It seems like they are not that much mentioned in the novels and stories.
