Hi!
I plan to explore the Darklands with my group in a month or so. I have the (old) Darklands campaign setting, but would like some adventures to modify/cannibalize for inspiration. Basically I'm trying to find cool ideas for plots, encounters and maps that I can take bits from for my uses.
They will probably be sticking to Nar'Voth but knowing them, they may end up going deeper.
I basically started playing tabletop with Pathfinder so any adventures that you may consider "classics" are likely going to be news to me.
What I don't want:
- Any APs, including Throne of Night or Second Darkness, since I am trying to avoid spoilers in case I myself play those games someday.
- Stuff that merely is set in caves or something, I want drow/derro/duergar and that real otherworldly/hollow earth feel.
- (Also good is exploration stuff along the lines of Journey to the Center of the Earth...I plan to be using that book as inspiration anyway)
- Stuff I can't get pdfs of :( This should be obvious I hope!
What is Great!:
- Non-AP paizo stuff including PFS scenarios and modules!
- Old D&D stuff like Underdark themed work is pretty much what I'm looking for! I can probably re-fluff things back to Golarion no problem. 3.0/3.5 is awesome! 2e and older...ehhh.. if you really recommend it I'll take a look! :)
- 3pp stuff!
- System agnostic d20 stuff!
I hope I get some good ideas!!! I'm sort of at a loss and I don't want it to feel like an endless hallway. :( In particular, I need help with ideas as how to incorporate underground civilizations such as drow and duergar.

Rise of the Drow by AAW games. The main "AP" takes the PCs from level 6 thru level 16, and there is a prologue and epilogue that expands it to a 1 thru 20.
I am running my home group thru it now.

City of the Spider Queen (3.0) was good fun back in the day

Rise of the Drow is a superb suggestion... I'm taking a group through the prologue, main AP, and epilogue assuming they follow the obvious adventuring options.
I came here looking for the other suggestions people give you that are Pathfinder specific, just in case my group "wanders" off into other parts of the Darklands.

I'll also recommend Rise of the Drow. For some inspiration I'd look into Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue. It covers many editions of the Underdark (1st - 4th) and has a lot of great fluff and ideas that could be incorporated into any game setting. Hope those help!
A lot of recommendations for Rise of the Drow! :D
Here's to hoping your adventurers haven't met their end in the Underworld of Aventyr. :)
