Mori'quessir

Mori'quessir, or Drow to the surface races, are of human height, though usually slightly shorter, and have black skin and red eyes, in a fairly limited range of shades. Their ears are larger than their Quessir cousins, and still retain some limited independent movement. They are wiry and supple, and do not run to fat easily.

A drow who is visibly in disrepair has fallen at least twice as far as his human counterpart. Their hair is thin, wispy, and almost universally white, shading to bone at one end of the spectrum and ice on the other. Drow do not usually grow facial or bodily hair, but suitably evil-looking goatees can be cultivated with persistent effort, usually by the small fraternity of drow wizards.

Drow are city-dwellers by nature. They once were the Sylvan Elves. They turned to worship the Dragon of Darkness, Malassa, dedicating statues and other such monuments to her. Some Drow are exiled, they flee the tyrannical reign of the clergy of the spider-goddess Lolth, and manage to stumble into this distant realm by various means. Despite the various elven factions constant infighting and viciousness towards one another, they share a subconscious need for companionship.

The drow are, nearly to a one, scheming, manipulative, and often surprisingly vicious. They rarely care for any companions they may deign to take, or on occasion they might care for them only as a possession or weapon. In combat, they are savage and merciless. In the social arena, it is much the same. Drow usually do not leave their lands without purpose. A very rare few leave out of wanderlust or the desire to expand the drow empire. Currently a large population of Drow share the under district with the forsaken underneath of Kyouringakure, which most of the surface population is unaware of.
