Hello,
I am thinking of playing a drow cleric of Elistraee in a 2nd edition game and was hoping someone might know where I can find more information on drows as PC's for this system. I have found the Forgotten Realms book on the drow for 2nd edition but my husband thinks that there is another book for regular AD&D that is more relevant. :confused:
Any help is greatly appreciated! :)

Thank you,

Cypress

Well...there's Menzoberranzan (Forgotten Realms), The Drow of the Underdark (Forgotten Realms), Drizz't Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark (Forgotten Realms), AD&D's Player's Handbook (Generic), The Complete Book of Elves (Generic), Player's Option: Skills and Powers (Generic), GDQ: Queen of the Spiders (Generic - Adventure path consisting of G1-3, D1-3, Q1) and that is mostly it I reckon.

Also the 2nd Edition Monstrous Manual has stats for them as adversaries, not really info on them as PCs though.

For some reason I believe the original Unearthed Arcana had info on this.
But this book was 1ed.

Then agien, my memory may be failing :)

In Skills and powers (The only ADND Book I have that distinctly gives them stats as PCs)...

They're basically elves with infravision out to 120 (not 60) feet, rapier and crossbow attack bonuses instead of sword and bow bonuses, with light sensitivity (which is basically what it is in 3E) and the SLAs they have in 3E

If you are playing stright up second eddition D&D, then The Elves handbook is what you need for all your drow 'crunch'.

If you are playing 2.5 D&D, then they have the info in the Skill's and powers, as was mentioned above.

As for info on Elistraee and her pristhood, Demihuman Deities had all kinds of info.

Wee.
