SETTING

------------------------------------------------------

A HUNT THROUGH THE DARK assumes that you play the role of a drow mercenary. Per definition
such mercenaries are decendants from the lower classes of the drow society. Drow clerics in
this case are female nobles in this case and they would never be mercenaries. Furthermore,
male drow - and so most of the drow NPCs you will encounter - are very defensive towards ANY
female drow. So any female character would be regarded with wary suspicion. The males would
try to avoid any contact. This would cut many storyline elements and dialgues of this game.

Although we strongly recommend playing a male character with any non-clerical background, we
did not disable the option to choose female characters or clerics. You have the option to play
a priestess of Eilistarae or any other class you desire - as long as the character is a drow character. But we do not provide dialogue options to cover this character choice.

PLAYER CHARACTER RECOMMENDATION:


RACE: drow

GENDER: male

CLASS: any except cleric, paladin, druid
