Homebrew Drow Species Details
Drow, also known as dark elves, deep elves or under elves, are a subspecies of elf, home to the underdark. There are two types of drow, lolth's followers, and those who rebel (though there is no real difference between the two). Drow get a bad reputation due to their violent society.
Drow have a matriarchal society.
Drow have been seen to live longer than surface elves, at an average of 1000 years (if not stabbed to death first), though some have been seen to live even longer with the use of magic or blessings from lolth (pretty sure there has been one or two that became immortal from a blessing from lolth but i could be wrong),
