Actually i use to play shield dwarf, cleric of Tyr, seeker and explorer of Tyrs appearanse and artifacts connected to Tyr appearanse, walking from one Tyrs monastery to another. The appearance of evil druegar was my emotional answer on actions which were unjustise from my point of view. So..... thats a really big question - what to do with drow, who dont have Underdark yet. I am sure we have to make some peacefull agreement for now - all Surface VS Underdark war, kill, hate must be gone untill Underdark is under construction, i am sure that is fare enough. Because UD races really have nothing to do on a surface but they have no place where to go or where to hide fom brotherhood or any other company. Lets pretend that there was some kind of diplomatic agreement, where was set: no drow raids and no drow kills for now. Am i wrong?

for what the hell i will wear a helmet if i gonna play shield dwarf Tyrs cleric!!!??
ok, thats a joke ;-))
you right about the helmets, but they are so ugly yet, and twiser uglier on a drow model, but you right - drow (or any UD) provoking surfacers openly - thats no good. Poor UD races (maybe me too, or maybe not) you will have to wait until Underdark in those bloody helmets.

bogus:
That's a good point, let's do some light RP. Then, when the Underdark comes out and the drow raids begin: on with the Hack N Slash.

hehe May i suggest u play ur dwarf until the underdark is ready? Sir Valek Sunborn, Paladin of Tyr, is eager to have some help here in the church. But to avoid mistakes, apply ur char to the church on the Holy Order of Tyr Thread. Or read the thread ''Attention Clerics''.

But to avoid mistakes, apply ur char to the church on the Holy Order of Tyr Thread. Or read the thread ''Attention Clerics''. Mistakes like, openly consorting with drow who attack people and steal? You can play a Drow and avoid conflict, you can level a UD race, many have done it already, I see no need to make special provisons or peace deals so you can level yours in peace. UD races are suppposed to be difficult to play. When i created my drow, the first thing i did was run to to armorsmith and buy a helm, the first thing you did was try to pick haydels pockets and attack anothe player in the city, sorry but I dont't have much sympathy for the plight of your drow.

UD is difficult to play right, but its imposible to play when all players u met 10+ lvl and u're only 1 lvl... with wipe it's fine =)))
also not all ppl like others... some of hight lvl players helped me... and btw DMs in game told me, that kill on sight is racism.... so.

Ya I have no problem with my character being a "racist", then again that is a term from our time and doesn't even fit into Faerun. Read the OP, this thread is about racism and the fact that it is normal here and to be expected. Again, your complaints would best be submitted to the "Issues with PVP" section. Dwarves and elfs don't like each other.... discuss

I agree its not really racism as we modern people think of it.
Drow have a culture thats identifiably and overwhelmingly hostile to the culture you want to interact with. If we were all playing mind-flayers... we might be more friendly?
Even in faerun, where racism can really be about different races, its not about race. Faerunians divide themselves along cultural and religious lines first. I wouldnt expect a Thayan to cower from the drow, nor even to think of fighting before talking. The average cormyrian? Id expect that to be "shoot first, look at its holy symbol later".
The elves and dwarves thing is a great example. Its not cause they hate each other racially... silverymoon is a marvel of the blending of dwarven and elven technologies/cultures. but there HAVE been a load of battles between elven and dwarven empires in ages past. elves and dwarves from these regions do have those hates.
Really, if you cant breathe water naturally... your race is sorta inferior. Its cute how drow call all the other people "surfacers" when they are part of that same air-sucking crowd.
We genasi wont mind working with drow, but dont expect a fair share of the loot.
