Xorlarrin |
|
Xorlarrin is an enigma. Males of the house are treated as equals with the females. Needless to say they still can't be priestesses, but the rumor is they never get beaten, and can pick their own mates. The house's unique philosophy causes it disfavor with Lolth, but the benefits outweigh the costs since the house's males are invariably intelligent and make excellent wizards. These wizards are typically enchanters, and the most sought out makers of magical items - especially wands. When you see the matron produce a wand of hold person which seems to affect even the most stubborn opponents - that's a Xorlarrin wand. The house holds 6 master positions at Sorcere! (Don't be fooled, they are still evil like all drow, though males aren't beaten they are merely treated just as poorly as regular house females, the enigma is not a result of morals, but rather a slightly different power equilibrium since house Xorlarrin priestesses are never very good, but the wizards are - which gives the males a little more influence) Attitude: This house is paranoid. If Lolth is asked about her favor for the houses Xorlarrin will come out toward the bottom, the house is ever wary of some fool acting on such a divination.
