� Persistent rumours of an ancient artefact of incredible<br />

power, broken into five pieces and long thought lost<br />

forever, are luring groups of adventurers into the<br />

Underdeep. <strong>The</strong> drow have planted the rumour as a<br />

means of eliminating potent threats on the surface<br />

and as an easy way to garner powerful magical items<br />

for themselves, stripped from the corpses of greedy<br />

adventurers.<br />

� <strong>The</strong> drow acquire influence (magical influence,<br />

blackmail or extortion) over several nobles of a surface<br />

kingdom, forcing them to push the nation’s king towards<br />

open warfare against a nearby elven community.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Drow</strong> as the Ultimate Enemy<br />

<strong>The</strong> immense power, long lives, ambitions and wealth of<br />

the drow make it a simple matter for them to step into the<br />

role of the ultimate enemy in a roleplaying campaign. In<br />

such a campaign, the drow are not merely the masterminds<br />

and manipulators behind plots and schemes that bedevil<br />

the Player Characters, they are a primary force in the<br />

workings of the world. From the impregnable fortress of<br />

the Underdeep, the hand of the drow reaches forth to guide<br />

the happenings of the surface, to crush the enemies of the<br />

dark elves and to move the nations of the sunlit world as<br />

pawns in a global Game of Bones.<br />
