Topic: Q: Drow

[EltonJ]

I'm going to convert the drow from AD&D to RMSS.  I know the original Creatures and Treasures had conversion guidelines for AD&D monsters as well as RuneQuest monsters.

The reason is, the drow have an important spot in my world system that I'm filling out on World Anvil. And I know that Rolemaster doesn't have drow.  But I'd like to add them.  Any help would be appreciated.

In what ways do you want them to differ from other elves in your world?

[EltonJ]

They come from a different planet than other elves?  Like the other elves come from the planet Arvandor.  They have dark skin.  Males have red (cool mauve) skin, and females have blue (night blue) skin.  Hair color can range from stark white, to light blue, light purple, and light green. 

I named the original drow planet Avalonea. They are also polyamorous, and typically have more than one mate.  Some drow are monogamous -- but they are the exception, not the rule.

Here's the article I wrote on their society:

The idea is not an evil race.
