Huh. I was under the impression that the comic was based on the Drow-race rules of the D&D manual as it was up to 2000, or so. I’ve never played a quest that happened to involve Drow, so I never read up on them myself when I was a regular player, so I guess I cannot say what they have completely made up, I never bothered to research beyond their quick synopsis of their root ideas, years ago. I read that story because it’s a damn good one, which I recommend.
