...from me...
I'm a drow mage... and I do not want to atract attention to myself, but I would enjoy company... *smiles*

Well met
<adapted from http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/hallam/10.html>
Lady, I bid thee to a sunny dome
Ringing with echoes of Faerunian song;
Henceforth to thee these magic halls belong,
And all the pleasant place is like a home.
Hark, on the right with full piano tone,
Old Alaundo's voice encircles all the air;
Hark yet again, like flute-tones mingling rare,
Comes the keen sweetness of Petrarca's moan.
Pass thou the lintel freely: without fear
Feast on the music: I do better know thee,
Than to suspect this pleasure thou dost owe me
Will wrong thy gentle spirit, or make less dear
That element whence thou must draw thy life;--

I say Alaundo! First to welcome in the new scribe. I guess ye are getting more attentive in your... older age.
In anycase,
Welcome. Enjoy your stay! May you find the knowledge you seek... and corrupt it to full extent.  |

"What's that," asked Mogget.
"Sardines," said Sam. "I knew they were standard rations, so I got a few tins for you."
"What are sardines?" Moggest asked suspiciously. "And why is there a key? Is this some sort of Abhorsen joke?"

Welcome yet another drow to the Keep! I myslef am a Chosen of the Masked Lord, Vhaeraun.  |

And when dark elves mingle with the lighter races, the offspring invariably take after the dark parent. It is all much the same. That which is greater shall prevail. Our numbers increase steadily, both through birth and conquest. The dark elves are the dominant race, so ordained by the gods." Ka'Narlist of the Ilythiiri. |

Well met and welcome to the halls of Candlekeep, there is much to be had and much to be learned here, however, the best things to be had lie behind MuadDib's counter in the Inn... *chuckles*
Hope you enjoy being here

Note the "mostly".
Anyway ... Well met!
So, another of those acursed Dhaerow have come upon us. This is really becoming an epidemic. |

@Karesch: Thanks for the information
@Arilyn: We drow, or Dhaerow -as you may call them... err I mean us-, aren't acursed... we are sentient beings, just like you are... anyway, you should not consider ALL dark elves to be the same... I am different and you do not know me enough to say such words so I kindly ask that you take them back

Gods, not another one... 
It seems that Drow have gone from Chaotic Evil beings of Darkness(My character) to Chaotic Good Rebels (Most of the other here at the Keep). 
Pray tell, do you have the standard issue scimitars? |

| No! *angry* I am a mage! Swords are no match for good magic... useless in comparison! |
