Who decided the drow should have so much fucking lore anyway.

('I should've been a drow.' You can't fucking stand Cazador or your 'siblings' you would not fucking want to be a drow. Although I guess Astarion would make a fair Vhaeraunite.)

#babbling #I'm still working on it and the many many fucking novels I don't really want to read #but at the same time my dwarves are calling me away from the elfyness #there was a giant red cardinal loose in the mines until it ran into the tavern in a panic and the human merc staying there killed it #I wanted to catch and tame it to make a dwarven aerial cavalry of giant blood-red passerines #now there's dead bird everywhere and nobody actually wanted to do cleaning work and everybody's being sick #possibly because half the work force is severely disabled #because they ran off to beat a giant snapping turtle to death and got limbs torn off #I told them not to fucking go fishing but nnOOooo #that's slowing things down a bit #We spent weeks huddled in a hole in the ground eating raw horseflesh and staring at nothing due to trauma #bleeding through amateurish stiches done by a dying one-handed dwarf with no medical training #while one of the dwarves sat in the other corner carving bone into jewellery while seething with homicidal rage #We have no textiles industry; some of the dwarves are wandering around swathed in bone jewellery and crowns like morbid monarchs #But their clothes are tattered rags clinging to their heavily scarred flesh by threads #the mining team has to double as the militia because they've grown to crave violence for some reason - especially the medical staff #Can't wait for the elven diplomat to turn up and start bitching about the logging industry #Like look you cannibalistic fuck; these dwarves are a hairsbreadth away from descending into berserker-rage and slaughtering us all #I am not making them sleep in the dirt because you oppose me turning the odd tree into a bedframe or a barrel because we are ALWAYS #ALWAYS on the verge of running out of alcohol #...#Either this sounds insane or you know exactly what I'm talking about #I'm going to make a DnD session out of this methinks
