Welcome to the Underdark...
As darkness falls, the dark elves rise to serve their spider Queen,The world below is the Underdark - a blinding darkness to behold. If you dare upon the drow elves' lair, their dark hearts and swords will fly. Like spiders in their webs they wait,for you, alas, are simply bait.
There is a world beneath the world humans know - a vast, lawless land under the realms that see the sun. It is a perilous land of dark caverns, crevices, and labyrinths: the realm below, the vast and mysterious Underdark. No surface dweller has seen all its depths and corners. Beasts that no surface dweller yet knows of lurk in its shadowy depths. Surviving explorers say the known dangers are bad enough.
To the unwary traveler in the Underdark, a city may seem a refuge from the creeping doom in the darkness. It is, after all, bustling with life - with food, tools, and perhaps aid. Or, perhaps not.
Menzoberranzan is a place of evil within a infinite night. A city of carved and spired stone castles, their smooth, unjointed, unbroken expanses are lit with the soft, tinted flows of permanent faerie fires. There live the dark elves, drow as they name themselves, who plot against each other to praise Lolth, the Spider Queen.
Do you dare enter their realm? If so, danger and excitement beyond your wildest nightmares are yours as your characters delve into the murky Underdark. Riches and glory await, as well as horrible creature and danger. You know your party can face them and, perhaps, even beat them in the light of day, but how will they fare in the darkness?
