Drow thiefs and rogues

Duranamir · Post by **Duranamir** » Mon Feb 13, 2006 2:00 pm

A series of questions, about Drow rogues, it is currently possible to create a Drow rogue (though a little expensive in kismet and limited in advancement).

Can only commoners be rogues ?

If Nobles can be rogues can female nobles be rogues ? (or are they just too valuable as priestess's to be allowed this path) ?

Does anyone thing a Drow thiefs guild would accept nobles ?

What is the relationship between the nobility and the thieves guild, my own take is that they would be allowed to exist as there skills are occasionaly useful to the nobles.

hmm if a drow where to be a rogue it'd fit more if a noble was a rogue to be a scout...i doubt a female would demean herself if she was a noble but..commoners on the other hand would be skilled thieves for hire to dig up dirt on toher houses for the nobles to nobles to help put them in disfavor to lloth and such... but currently there is like i think no quest to furhter the rogue into a thief and its not possible for them to become bards now if there was a scout class put in the quest for down below that would be cool! i was thinking about trying to submit one sometime see how it goes

Drow and half-drow may be bards...

...the difficulty would lie in drow being unable to attend the relevant colleges which are only accessible on the surface.

However, all things are possible given good roleplay, effort and patience

I was reading the War of the Spider Queen series not so long ago and I recall that one of the Priestesses also dabbled in a bit of barding. Not sure exactly what it was called, but it seemed to be sort of "Evil Bard" group. I can't remember if it was based on the surface, but if not then those surface colleges would not be as necessary for a drow to learn. Just a thought...

I don't think he meant that drow in general could would have a difficult time being bards because all canon bard colleges are on the surface. Rather, he meant that all of the colleges that we have in the game at this time are on the surface so it becomes a logistical problem.

Ahh, I suppose someone would have to make an area then. Drow gotta sing too... ; D

It was called Darksong. It had another name too, but I don't remember that. I read those books there. Was it a Deathsinger? I think there was something about that in Windwalker by Elaine Cunningham. Actually, you might want to read the Liriel Baenre Trilogy, since it explains how a certain evil priestess came back to life after everyone's favorite goodly Drow killed her. 'Q' was killed by 'D'. I don't want to make any spoilers.
