IIRC, Driders are drow who where transformed into half-spider/half-drow creatures by Lolth as punishment. </font>[/QUOTE]Well ya but what i ment was what is their signifigance to the drow understand that lolth is punishing them but how does the transformation happen?

Yeah, I could have sworn this thread was dead about eight times, now...and it keeps coming back, and we keep talking about the drow...

EVERYONE LOVES THE DROW!!!

I was just wondering how this came back...

<font color=pink>Lolth is a nasty goddess with nasty powers. Have you read about her handmaidens? Yuck!</font>

Some more then others... but I'm gonna leave that train of thought alone [img]tongue.gif[/img]

First, the priesteses must pray to Lolth for the power to preform the spell, if it's a worthy waste of energy the spider queen will grant the spell.I dont know the rest of the details but i wish i did.there is an actual site somewhere that has the spell and how to do it but last time i tried to hack in they virised my computer

Aright heres how it goes,from the specialist.
Over five thousand years ago,a great civil war erupted in the Elven land of Ulthuan.For decades the two sides battled each other,unleashing a period of anarchy,terror and bloodshed on the kingdoms of the High Elves.The war began when Malekith-the future black witch king of Naggaroth-attempted to seize power in a bloody coup.Malekith and his black-hearted followers forsook the way of the old Elven gods and sought out the forbidden power of dark sorcery.When their kin attempted to stop Malekith, the Elven Kingdoms were plunged into a long,bloody war.Ultimatly the Dark Elves,as these renegades were named,were driven out and banished.They settled in Naggaroth,in bitter and resentful exile.Here they established their own kingdoms amongst the dark mountains and pine forest of the aptly named Land of Chill.The largest and oldest of these cities in Naggarond, where the ancient and undying Witch King holds court and continues to mastermind the Dark Elves' never-ending war against the High Elves

Why would you have to hack into a site to find out? I dont get it. :(
