Encyclopaedia Arcane: Drow Magic (d20)
There are monsters in the deep¸ beasts whose flesh is perfect obsidian¸ whose eyes shine like midnight stars and who yearn to hunt again beneath the open sky. These beasts are the drow¸ and it is their doom to never again feel the light and warmth of the sun¸ until such time as the elven gods are thrown down and all their favoured children slain. The cities of the drow spread like a cancer through the veins of the world¸ glittering jewels of decadence¸ soaked in blood and steeped in corruption. Ruled by great¸ matriarchal families and the will of the Dark Mother of Spiders' clergy¸ these cities are cosmopolitan nightmares¸ home to the worst depravities imaginable and swarming with untold legions of drow. While all drow have earned a reputation for cruelty and deadly cunning¸ none deserve it more than those drow who command the primal¸ arcane forces. The Encyclopaedia Arcane: Drow Magic shows you why. In this¸ the latest in Mongoose Publishing's line of books designed to broaden the horizons of wizardry in fantasy gaming¸ you will find a host of new options specifically designed with the sinister needs of the drow in mind. You will find page after page of new spells; spells which create living webs¸ which infect enemies of the drow with deadly soul poisons or virulent diseases¸ which summon up gibbering mounds of shadow to bite and tear at both flesh and spirit.
