在各种精灵亚种中，没有一个比卓尔更臭名昭著的。这是卓尔精灵是从最初的被称为瑟瑞-泰’奎瑟的黑皮肤精灵亚种继承而来的，他们被善良精灵的神祗诅咒而变成了如今的样子，因为他们跟随女神罗丝走在通往邪恶和腐败的道路上。
Of the various elven subraces, none are more notorious than the drow. Descended from the original dark-skinned elven subrace called the Ssri-tel-quessir, the drow were cursed into their present appearance by the good elven deities for following the goddess Lolth down the path to evil and corruption.
卓尔精灵也被称为黑暗精灵，他们有黑色的皮肤，类似于抛光的黑曜石和鲜明的白色或淡黄色头发。他们的眼睛通常是血红色的，不为人所知的是他们淡色的瞳孔（如此苍白以至于常常被误认为是白色）是淡紫色、银色、粉色和蓝色的。他们也往往比大多数费伦的精灵更小更瘦。表面上的大多数卓尔精灵都是邪恶的，他们崇拜维纶，但一些被驱逐者和叛徒的态度更为中立，甚至还有一群好卓尔精灵崇拜伊莉丝翠或其他神，而不是传统卓尔神系。
Also called dark elves, the drow have black skin that resembles polished obsidian and stark white or pale yellow hair. They commonly have blood-red eyes, although pale eyes (so pale as to be often mistaken for white) in shades of pale lilac, silver, pink, and blue are not unknown. They also tend to be smaller and thinner than most Faerunian elves. Most drow on the surface are evil and worship Vhaeraun, but some outcasts and renegades have a more neutral attitude, and there are even groups of good drow who worship Eilistraee or other deities not of the traditional drow pantheon.
尽管被无尽的纷争和分裂分开，卓尔精灵仍然有着一个可怕的愿望之下：他们与地表精灵的仇恨。在卓尔精灵看来，他们证明了自己是第四次皇冠战争中的优等种族，而塞席德瑞恩（尤其是科瑞隆）因他们的成功而惩罚了他们，这是他们心中永远的痛。他们憎恨席德瑞恩诸神和他们娇惯的孩子，他们只想回到地面，带给地表精灵比卓尔精灵在过去一万年里被迫忍受的痛苦大一千倍的痛苦。
Though divided by endless feuds and schisms, the drow are united in one terrible desire: they seethe with a hatred for the surface elves. By their way of reckoning, they proved themselves the superior race in the Fourth Crown War, and the fact that the Seldarine (and Corellon in particular) punished them for their success is a poison that churns in their hearts and minds eternally. They burn with hatred for the Seldarine and their coddled children, and want nothing more than to return to the surface and bring to the elves there suffering a thousand times greater than that which the drow have been forced to endure over the past ten thousand years.
卓尔精灵具有玩家手册表6-4、6-5和6-6中为精灵定义的预期寿命、年龄类别、身高和体重特征。

历史History
一开始，斯瑞-泰’奎瑟是费伦新大陆上最成功的精灵殖民者。伊利斯瑞种族迅速成为早期精灵种族中最强大的一个。但是，斯瑞-泰’奎瑟不仅是他们那个时代最成功的精灵，他们也是最残忍和最善妒的。尽管他们有自己的成就，他们还是羡慕邻居的成就。当第一次皇冠之战在北方爆发时，黑暗精灵对他们的邻居发动了战争，试图统治南部费伦的精灵王国。
In the beginning, the Ssri-tel-quessir were the most successful of the elven colonists to the new world of Faerun. The nation of Ilythiir quickly became one of the most powerful of the early elven nations. But the Ssri-tel-quessir were not only the most successful of the elves of their time, they were also the most cruel and jealous. Despite their own accomplishments, they envied those of their neighbors all the same. While the First Crown War raged to the north, the dark elves waged their own war against their neighbors, seeking to dominate the elven realms of southern Faerun.
在三次试图征服邻近王国的尝试中失败后，第四次皇冠战争开始时伊利斯瑞的黑暗精灵转向了一个新的秘密守护神。黑暗精灵们向魔网深狱中被抛弃的席德瑞恩神祗宣誓效忠，特别是向罗丝表示效忠。蜘蛛女王和她的同流合污者（除了伊莉丝翠外）给予了伊利斯瑞的黑暗精灵强大的魔法力量、邪恶的盟友和支持，以换取他们的忠诚，而伊利斯瑞则以此在其他精灵王国中造成了巨大的破坏。
Unsuccessful in three attempts to subjugate the neighboring realms, the dark elves of Ilythiir turned to a new and secret patron at the opening of the Fourth Crown War. The dark elves pledged their loyalties to the outcast Seldarine of the Demonweb Pits, and to Lolth in particular. The Spider Queen and her fellow exiles (with the notable exception of Eilistraee) granted the dark elves of Ilythiir great magical powers, fiendish allies, and support in return for their allegiance, and the Ilythiiri wreaked great havoc among the other elven realms.
但是他们的成功和胜利是短暂的，因为科瑞隆被黑暗精灵的背叛行为深深地震惊和激怒了。根据他的命令，伊利斯瑞的精灵被诅咒，变成了卓尔精灵，从地表世界被驱逐到了黑暗地域。他们被称为达累罗（精灵语中的暗杀者），几个世纪以来，这个词带给他们一个众所周知名字：卓尔。
But their success and victory were short-lived, for Corellon was shocked and deeply enraged by the traitorous acts of the dark elves. By his decree, the Ilythiiri elves were cursed, transformed into drow and banished from the surface world into the Underdark. They became known as the dhaeraow (the elven word for traitor), and over the centuries this word has since given them the name by which they are known: drow.
在他们被放逐到地下后，卓尔精灵如同游牧者、拾荒者和野兽般生活。最后，在罗丝的指导下，他们以种族的形式聚集在一起，并开始充分改善自己的处境，在幽暗地域开拓殖民地。第一个地下卓尔文明建立在费伦南部，大约9600年，在9000年，卓尔精灵从金矮人手中夺取了贝瑞丹的大洞穴，并建立了第一个伟大的卓尔王国，塔伦提瓦。不幸的是，塔伦提瓦的卓尔很快陷入了可怕的内战，最终导致了几次巨大的魔法爆炸，摧毁了他们国家的洞穴，并在费伦南部形成了大裂谷。
After their exile below ground, the drow lived as nomads, scavengers, and feral beasts. Eventually, through the guidance of Lolth, they drew themselves together as a race and began to make the best of their situation, colonizing large portions of the Underdark. The first underground drow civilizations were established in southern Faerun around –9600 DR. In –9000 DR, the drow seized the great cavern of Bhaerynden from the gold dwarves and established the first great drow kingdom, Telantiwar. Unfortunately, the drow of Telantiwar quickly fell into terrible civil wars, the eventual result of which were several massive magical explosions that collapsed the caverns of their nation and formed the Great Rift in southern Faerun.
这场大灾难中少数的卓尔族幸存者分散在这片幽暗地域，慢慢地在离他们原来的南部家园越来越远的地方定居下来。后来，卓尔精灵在地下深处建造了几十座宏伟、恐怖的城市，这对于一个容易背信弃义、内讧和内战的种族来说是一个很大的成就。萨赫玛斯Shshamath，黑暗之网之城，于-4973 DR建于远丘之下，罗丝的一位高级女祭司， Menzoberra the Kinless，于-3917DR建立了魔索布莱城，House Nasadra，从魔索布莱城流亡而来，于-3843 DR建立了Ched Nasad。许多其他城市位于费伦其他地区的地底，有时会影响地表王国的发展，如804DR T'Lindhet的卓尔征服了丹布雷斯的人类王国，或数百年前Maerimydra对阴影谷长达数百年的统治。
The few drow survivors of this cataclysm scattered throughout the Underdark, slowly settling regions farther and farther away from their original homelands in the South. In time, the drow built dozens of magnificent, terrifying cities deep underground, quite an achievement for a people so predisposed toward treachery, infighting, and civil war. Sshamath, the City of Dark Weavings, was founded beneath the Far Hills in –4973 DR. Menzoberra the Kinless, a high priestess of Lolth, established the city of Menzoberranzan in –3917 DR. House Nasadra, exiled from Menzoberranzan, founded Ched Nasad in –3843 DR. Many other cities lie beneath other parts of Faerun, sometimes exerting their baleful influence on the lands above, such as the conquest of the human realm of Dambrath by the drow of T’lindhet in 804 DR, or the centuries-long rule of Maerimydra over Shadowdale hundreds of years ago.
最近，卓尔精灵开始比以往任何时候都更多地将他们的影响扩展到地表，进入废弃的精灵城市和家园。他们已经开始训练如何让他们在灿烂的地表世界中发挥作用。令他们惊讶和高兴的是，他们发现由于精灵的大撤退，地表精灵的存在比他们预期的要弱小得多，组织也更差。反对这种返回地面的少数卓尔精灵已经努力向地面世界发出这种新威胁的警报，但到目前为止，还没有出现有组织的对卓尔精灵入侵地面世界的抵抗。
Recently, the drow have begun to extend their influence to the surface in greater numbers than ever before, moving into abandoned elven cities and homes. They have begun training and conditioning to allow them to function in the brilliant surface world. Much to their surprise and delight, they have found that due to the Elven Retreat the presence of surface elves is much smaller and more poorly organized than they anticipated. Small bands of drow opposed to this return to the surface have made efforts to alert the surface world of this new threat, but so far no organized resistance to the drow invasion of the surface world has appeared.
性格Outlook
总之，卓尔精灵虐待，破坏和背叛成性。他们认为自己是费伦的合法继承人，仍然记得他们被流放到幽暗地域的不公。他们憎恨其他种族，要么鄙视他们，要么想与他们开战，只在贸易或临时军事联盟需要时才容忍他们。即使在对待他们自己的同类，卓尔也是残忍和可疑的。在卓尔社会，爱和友谊的空间很小。他们可能看重与其他家庭成员或熟人的结盟，但没有一个卓尔精灵真正信任其他人。卓尔只有在他们比“盟友”更强大、拥有值得敲诈的知识或拥有压倒他们相互仇恨的共同敌人时才会建立联盟。即使在那时候，他们的眼睛和耳朵也时刻准备搜索着哪怕是一丝背叛的迹象。卓尔精灵的座右铭很可能是：“先下手为强。”
Drow are, on the whole, sadistic, destructive, and treacherous. They view themselves as the rightful heirs to Faerun and still remember the perceived injustice of their exile to the Underdark. They hate other races and either wish to make war upon them or view those others with contempt and tolerate them only as necessary for trade or temporary military alliances. Even among their own kind, drow are cruel and suspicious. There is little room for love and friendship in drow society. They may value alliances with other family members or acquaintances, but no drow truly trusts another. Drow forge alliances only when they are more powerful than an “ally,” possess blackmail-worthy knowledge, or have a common enemy that overrides their mutual hatred. Even then, they keep their eyes and ears primed for the slightest hint of treachery. The motto for the drow may well be, “Do unto others first so they cannot do unto you.”
当然，这条规则总是有例外的时候。有相当多的卓尔精灵开始重视他们在幽暗地域中的地位，现在他们认为自己是幽暗地域的真正土著。他们几乎不想回到地表，宁愿统治着地底世界，也不愿为重新获得一个无法统治的王国而斗争。更为罕见的是那些为自己的恶行赎罪并认为同伴是需要被阻止的怪物的少数卓尔精灵。这些卓尔精灵要么是努力被新社会接受的地表居民，要么是住在地下深处偏僻洞穴的逃亡者。随着对地面的扩张，比以往任何时候都更多的卓尔精灵了解地表情况，许多卓尔精灵意识到，地表上的生活比他们被罗丝和她的亲属的代理人宣传的要好得多。在适当的接纳和鼓励下，未来几年，费伦地表中立的甚至是善良阵营的卓尔精灵的数量可能会猛增。伊莉丝翠的祭司站在这场运动的最前线，他们拼命地试图将地表的卓尔战争从黑暗精灵的残酷统治转变为大规模的阵营转变。
Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule. A fair number of drow have come to value their position in the Underdark and now think of themselves as true natives of their dark realm. They have little desire to return to the surface and would rather rule in the depths than struggle to regain a realm they no longer hold any interest in ruling. Even more rare are those few drow who have atoned for their evil ways and think of their fellows as monsters that need to be stopped. These drow are either surface dwellers who are struggling to become accepted into new societies, or fugitives dwelling in out-of-the-way caverns deep underground. With the new expansion into the surface, more drow than ever before are being exposed to the truth on the surface, and many are realizing that life on the surface is much nicer than they were led to believe by the agents of Lolth and her kin. It is possible, with proper acceptance and encouragement, that the numbers of neutral or even good drow on the surface of Faerun could skyrocket in the coming years. The priesthood of Eilistraee is in the forefront of this movement, desperately trying to divert the drow war on the surface into a mass conversion from the dark elves’ dreadful ways.
卓尔精灵角色DROW CHARACTERS
黑暗精灵以其神职人员、战士、游荡者和法师的而闻名。尽管许多卓尔精灵天生就有足够的天赋，能够在几乎所有他们关注的职业中脱颖而出，但他们的社会仍然长期以来对武器技能、神力（主要由洛思的女神职人员掌握）和奥术能力（主要由男巫师掌握）给予奖励。同样，所有的卓尔精灵都对黑暗中的秘密行动、诡计和意想不到的偷袭有着根深蒂固的崇拜。黑暗精灵很适合成为优秀的吟游诗人，但很少有人会走这条路；虽然所有的卓尔精灵都能欣赏这项技艺，但吟游诗人的繁荣并不适合卓尔社会。卓尔游侠也是很有价值的，他们可以在地下城的隧道里漫游，寻找对黑暗精灵城市的威胁。卓尔不经常兼职职业，因为他们的社会倾向于奖励预期角色和技能的专业化。
The dark elves are renowned for their skill as clerics, fighters, rogues, and wizards. While many drow are naturally gifted enough to excel in almost any career to which they turn their attention, their society has long rewarded skill at arms, divine power (primarily in the hands of female clerics of Lolth), and arcane might (primarily in the hands of male wizards). Likewise, all drow have a deep-seated admiration for stealth, guile, and the unexpected blade in the dark. Dark elves are well-suited to make good bards, but few follow this path; the bard’s exuberance does not fit well in drow society, although all drow can admire a work of skill. Drow rangers are valuable, too, serving as scouts who can roam the tunnels of the Underdark, seeking out threats to the great cities of the dark elves. Drow do not often multiclass, as their society tends to reward specialization in the expected roles and skills.
受欢迎的职业：几个世纪的传统和社会压力导致了男女卓尔精灵对他们受欢迎的职业的分裂。女卓尔作为神职人员受到社会的青睐，因为蜘蛛女王喜欢自己同性别的神职人员。因此，女卓尔最喜欢的职业是牧师。谁有标准的男性卓尔精灵青睐的职业是法师，但是没有类似的偏袒。
Favored Class: Centuries of tradition and social pressure have resulted in a schism between male and female drow in regards to their favored class. Female drow are favored by society as clerics, because the Spider Queen favors clerics of her own gender. As a result, a female drow’s favored class is cleric. There is no similar favoritism for male drow, who have the standard elven favored class of wizard.
进阶职业：卓尔精灵中最常见的进阶职业无疑是刺客。许多卓尔城都有臭名昭著的学院，为未来的年轻人提供各种死亡哲学的培训，而这些刺客行会在制造了一些最致命和最成功的暗中杀手。黑暗卫士在卓尔精灵中也很常见，其他有关神力的进阶职业也很常见，比如神力斗士、神力信徒和神力寻者。任何想在卓尔文化中茁壮成长的卓尔精灵都很好地将自己与对罗丝的信仰联系在一起。
Prestige Classes: The most common prestige class among the drow is without a doubt the assassin. Many drow cities have prestigious and infamous academies that train prospective youths in various philosophies of death, and these assassin’s guilds have produced some of the deadliest and most successful killers in the Underdark. Blackguards are also common among the drow, as are other divine prestige classes such as the divine champion, divine disciple, and divine seeker. Any drow who wishes to thrive within drow culture does well to tie himself or herself to Lolth’s faith.
卓尔社会Drow Society
卓尔精灵生活在具有强大宗教基础的军国主义社会中。他们是母系社会，由最强大的卓尔女祭司统治。卓尔精灵没有国家，但都聚集在位于地下深处的巨大洞穴的强大城邦中。卓尔城市彼此进行贸易，但经常陷入公开战争。
Drow live in militaristic societies with strong religious foundations. They are a matriarchal society, ruled by the most powerful drow priestesses. Drow do not form nations, but congregate in vastly powerful city-states located in massive caverns deep underground. Drow cities trade with each other but frequently fall into open warfare.
一个典型的卓尔城由一群强大的卓尔家族统治，其中最强的家族统治着城市本身。每个家族由一位主母统治，通常（尽管不总是）是一位强大的罗丝牧师。在一个卓尔城市的统治家族中，内讧是很常见的，甚至可以预料。家族的权力排序几乎每天都在变化，尽管前五或前十个家族的顺序相对稳定。
A typical drow city is ruled by a large group of powerful drow families, the strongest of which rule the city itself. Each family is in turn ruled by a Matron Mother, typically (though not always) a powerful cleric of Lolth. Infighting is common, even expected, among the ruling families of a drow city. The power ranking of the families shifts almost daily, although the top five or ten families are relatively stable.
卓尔城市倾向于一个随意的组织，因为强大的家族会为自己夺取最好的领地，而留下普通卓尔精灵来建立自己的军队，以他们可能的任何方式养活自己。不同家族的区域通常在洞穴最容易防御的部分且集中在一起，但情况并非总是这样。一般来说，一个大的公共罗丝神殿处在的区域，往往作为统治家族的财产的一部分。这座城市本身通常杂乱无章、混乱不堪，有着的数百种建筑风格。散发妖火的魔法物品装饰着更繁荣的建筑，以及大多数家庭住宅。在大多数情况下，卓尔城市中心充满了贫穷、压迫和绝望。
Drow cities tend toward a haphazard organization, as the strong families seize the best territory for themselves and leave the common drow to build their warrens and feed themselves in whatever fashion they can manage. The various family estates are often grouped close together in the most defensible part of the cavern, but this is not always the case. Typically, a large public temple dedicated to Lolth is located in the same area, often as part of the ruling family’s estate. The city itself is usually a tangled, chaotic mess of hundreds of architectural styles. Magic items emitting faerie fire adorn the more prosperous buildings, as well as most of the family estates. For the most part, poverty, oppression, and desperation are the rule in the heart of a drow city.
在城市的另一边是巨大的农场，奴隶们在那里种植深罗思、食用菌和其他城市生存所需的必需品。城市常备军的驻地（按性别划分）就在附近，还有专门为法师、吟游诗人、游荡者、刺客和各个领域的专家（即使是灵能和灵媒战士，如果你在游戏中使用灵能）服务的学院。通常，一个卓尔城市与一个强大的地下城居民结盟，比如一个眼魔或一条地底龙，他们鼓励这个生物在城郊保留一个巢穴。魔索布莱城是著名的流放者德里兹特杜乌尔登的故乡，是最著名的卓尔城邦。
Beyond the city proper are vast farms where slaves raise deep rothé, edible fungus, and other necessities for the survival of the city. Garrisons of the city’s standing army (segregated by gender) are located nearby, along with academies that cater to wizards, bards, rogues, assassins, and experts of various fields (even psions and psychic warriors, if you use psionics in your game). Often, a drow city enters an alliance with a powerful denizen of the Underdark such as a beholder or a deep dragon, encouraging the creature to keep a lair on the outskirts of the city. Menzoberranzan, home city of the famed exile Drizzt Do’Urden, is the most famous drow city-state and serves as an excellent example of how such locations are structured.
地面卓尔精灵还没有形成任何类似于他们自己的社会的东西。在大多数情况下，地面卓尔作为被驱逐者和隐士生活，只有在必要时才与社会互动。
Surface drow have yet to form anything resembling a society of their own. For the most part, surface drow live as outcasts and hermits, interacting with established societies only when necessary.
语言和文字Language and Literacy
大多数卓尔精灵讲的是精灵语、地底通用语和本地区语言。那些有时间或倾向的人，特别是战士，会学习卓尔手语或居住在附近地区的人通常说的语言，包括深渊语、通用语、龙语和地精语。卓尔还学习地表上靠近幽暗地域特定入口的地区语言，如伊路斯坎语。
Most drow speak Elven, Undercommon, and a language appropriate to their native region. Those with the time or inclination, particularly warriors, learn Drow Sign Language (see below) or languages commonly spoken by beings that settle nearby, including Abyssal, Common, Draconic, and Goblin. Drow also learn common languages spoken on the surface near the entrances to their particular corner of the Underdark, such as the Illuskan language.
卓尔已经开发出一种独特的手语，卓尔手语，它允许无声的交流，只要双方都能看到对方，手势距离可达120英尺。卓尔手语没有字母或书面形式。
Drow have developed a unique sign language, Drow Sign Language, which allows silent communication with hand gestures up to 120 feet away as long as both parties can see each other. Drow Sign Language has no alphabet or written form.
除野蛮人外，所有的卓尔精灵都有读写能力。
All drow characters are literate except for barbarians.
卓尔魔法和知识Drow Magic and Lore
卓尔精灵已经发展出数量惊人的独特（而且经常令人不安）咒语；其中许多已经通过幽暗地域传播，甚至在地表世界也变得广为人知。卓尔对悬浮法术有着特殊的亲和力，并且经常建造需要悬浮（或其他飞行形式）从一个层面到达另一个层面的结构和防御体系。许多重要或有影响力的卓尔精灵拥有卓尔屋徽章（详见附录中的魔法物品部分），允许使用悬浮物。
The drow have developed an astounding number of unique (and often disturbing) spells; many of these have since filtered up through the Underdark and have become well known even on the surface world. Drow have a particular affinity for levitate spells and effects, and often build structures and defenses that require levitate (or some other form of flight) to get from one level to another. Many important or influential drow own a drow house insignia (detailed in the Magic Items section of the Appendix) that allows the use of levitate.
法术和施法SPELLS AND SPELLCASTING
卓尔对魔法雕文和符文很有亲和力，他们长期以来一直用强大的魔法来保卫自己的家园，这些魔法被编织成各种各样的符号和符文，放置在那里可以抵御入侵。这些铭文类似于守卫结界或高等守卫结界所创建的铭文，只是它们在释放能量后仍保持在原处。卓尔雕文分为三类：路标符文（用于卓尔巡逻或旅行但未居住的区域）、神圣雕文（由卓尔神职人员放置以保护蜘蛛女王神圣区域的特殊雕文）和房屋防御雕文（由贵族家庭成员开发以保护其家园和家庭）这些符文由已经成为符文师的卓尔神职人员放置，并且通常包含专门为特定符文或位置研究的独特法术。
Drow have an affinity for magical glyphs and runes, and have long warded their homes with potent magics woven into various sigils and runes placed where they can ward against intrusion. These glyphs are similar to those created by the glyph of warding or greater glyph of warding spells, except that they remain in place even after discharging power. Drow glyphs fall into one of three categories, way-marker runes (used in areas patrolled or traveled by drow but not inhabited by them), sacred glyphs (special glyphs placed by clerics of Lolth to protect areas sacred to the Spider Queen), and house defense glyphs (specialized glyphs developed by members of noble houses to protect their homes and families). These runes are placed by drow clerics who have become runecasters and often contain unique spells that have been researched specifically for a particular rune or location.
卓尔魔法物品DROW MAGIC ITEMS
卓尔精灵特别喜欢魔法武器和盔甲，所有为强大的卓尔城市或家族服务的卓尔精灵，都期待着他们的武器和盔甲至少有一些小的魔法强化。卓尔很可能携带卓尔之家的徽章，披风（精灵的斗篷），和更大的披风。由于他们的自私和偏执，卓尔有时会制作他们的魔法物品，使得他们只能被卓尔使用，这使得这些魔法物品不会被他们的敌人，至少是那些不是卓尔的人使用。
Drow are particularly fond of magic weapons and armor, and all drow in service to a powerful drow city or family can expect their arms and armor to have at least some minor magical enhancements. Drow are likely to carry drow house insignias, piwafwis (cloaks of elvenkind), and greater piwafwis. Because they are selfish and paranoid, drow sometimes craft their magic items so they can only be used by drow, which keeps the items out of the hands of their enemies—at least those that aren’t also drow.
卓尔神祗Drow Deities
卓尔精灵崇拜被称为黑暗席德瑞恩的神系。这些神在很久以前就被逐出希德瑞恩诸神，被流放到魔网深狱里。他们由蜘蛛女王罗丝领导，大多数卓尔精灵崇拜的是她。第二个最受欢迎的卓尔神祗是维纶，大多数地面居住卓尔精灵都崇拜它。其他的卓尔神在宏伟的计划中仍然是次要的，要么过于专注于自己的利益而不去发展信徒（如关纳德），要么过于害怕或甘于作为洛思的仆人，而不去争取更多的权力（如齐雅温纱丽和席文塔姆）。一个显著的例外是伊莉丝翠，他是卓尔神系中唯一一个善良阵营的神。随着越来越多的卓尔精灵转向地表，试图扩大他们的王国，越来越多的卓尔精灵正被伊莉丝翠教堂（Church of Eilistraee）从他们邪恶的道路上转变过来，后者最近显著地加大了努力，“拯救”卓尔精灵脱离他们毁灭的道路。
The drow worship a pantheon of deities known as the Dark Seldarine. These deities were cast out of the Seldarine ages ago and exiled to the Demonweb Pits. They are led by Lolth, the Spider Queen, and it is she whom the vast majority of drow worship. The second most popular drow deity is Vhaeraun, worshiped by most of the surface-dwelling drow. The other drow deities remain minor in the grand scheme of things, either too absorbed in their own interests to increase their worshipers (such as Ghaunadaur), or too afraid or comfortable as Lolth’s servants to make a move for more power (such as Kiaransalee and Selvetarm). A notable exception is Eilistraee, the solitary good-aligned deity in the drow pantheon. As more and more drow turn to the surface in an attempt to expand their domains, an increasing number are being converted away from their evil ways by the church of Eilistraee, which of late has significantly stepped up its efforts to “save” the drow from their destructive ways.
与其他种族的关系Relations with Other Races
卓尔精灵与费伦其他知性种族的人关系很差。在最好的情况下，卓尔精灵认为其他种族只是可笑或可鄙。他们甚至对以前的盟友，如寇涛鱼人，也有着很低的评价。面对大多数其他种族，卓尔精灵唯一的反应就是仇恨和彻底的战争。他们基于这样一个理念建立了强大的城邦：权力之路在于征服少数民族，并根除那些对他们的家园构成威胁的人。
The drow do not interact well with the various other sentient races of Faerun. At best, the drow think of other races as merely laughable or contemptible. They hold low opinions even of their erstwhile allies, such as the kuo-toa. Against most other races, the only way the drow know to react is with hatred and outright war. They have built up powerful city-states based on the notion that the path to power lies in the subjugation of lesser races and the eradication of those who pose a threat to their homes.
在卓尔的突袭和战斗中被俘的囚犯通常被带回城市，作为奴隶度过余生。兽人、哥布林、食人魔和其他野蛮的类人生物都是常见的奴隶。大多数卓尔族家族中每个人都有两到三个这样的奴隶。奴隶的饲养和贩卖在卓尔城市是一项兴旺的事业，因为这些倒霉的奴隶在卓尔城市从事一切卑微和非技巧性的劳动。
Prisoners captured in drow raids and battles are usually brought back to the cities to serve out the remainder of their lives as slaves. Orcs, hobgoblins, ogres, and other savage humanoids are common slaves. Most drow households have two to three such slaves for every drow in the house. The breeding and selling of slaves is a thriving business in drow cities, because these hapless thralls perform all menial and unskilled labor in a drow city.
然而，卓尔精灵仇恨的真正焦点是地表精灵。他们抓住任何机会迅速而残忍地给他们遇到任何的其他精灵带来疼痛、苦难和死亡。即使是少数邪恶的地表精灵也被他们视为敌人。如果有助于他们实现其邪恶的目标，卓尔有时与其他种族或个人达成休战协议，但这些休战协议本质上是暂时的。卓尔精灵背叛他们的盟友只是时间问题。
The true focus of drow hatred, though, is reserved for the surface elves. They act quickly and cruelly to seize any chance to bring pain, suffering, and death to other elves they encounter. Even the few evil surface elves are seen as enemies. Drow sometimes enter into truces with other races or individuals if doing so helps them to realize their sinister goals, but these truces are by their nature temporary affairs. It’s only a matter of time until the drow turn on their allies.
卓尔装备Drow Equipment
卓尔经常使用有毒武器。他们最喜欢的是一种强大的非致命毒素，用来捕获活生生的囚犯。卓尔制毒者从一种光滑的黑色真菌中提取这种毒素，这种真菌在某些地下洞穴中像生长起来像是大片的浮油。地底的各种天然捕食者，如蝎子、紫色蠕虫，尤其是蜘蛛，是卓尔精灵其他常见的毒源。
Drow often make use of poisoned weapons. Their favorite is a powerful knockout toxin used to capture live prisoners. Drow poisonmakers extract this toxin from a slippery, black fungus that grows like great slicks of oil in certain Underdark caverns. Various natural predators of the underground, such as scorpions, purple worms, and especially spiders, are other common sources for poison.
特有装备：卓尔非致命毒素（见附录）。
Unique Item: Drow knockout poison (described in the appendix).
武器和防具ARMS AND ARMOR
卓尔更喜欢利用他们的敏捷使用武器，所以细剑是黑暗精灵最喜欢的武器。大多数卓尔精灵也精通手弩，并以秘密和精确的方式使用这种武器释放出强大的非致命毒液。当他们负担得起的时候，他们会穿秘银锁子甲，但是卓尔精灵不会使用其他阻碍他们发挥出敏捷或速度的防具。
Drow prefer to fight with weapons that take advantage of their Dexterity, so rapiers are a favorite implement of the dark elves. Most drow are also well versed with the hand crossbow and use this weapon to deliver potent knockout poison with stealth and precision. They wear mithral chainmail or mithral chain shirts when they can afford it, but the drow eschew most other armors that hamper their agility or speed.
动物和宠物ANIMALS AND PETS
卓尔不把动物当作宠物驯养；他们更喜欢能完全理解他们对主人的依赖和依赖范围的宠物。因此，许多卓尔精灵把一个最受宠爱的奴隶作为私人仆人或奴隶。事实上，这些奴才只不过是卓尔精灵的宠物，他们一般都是被这样对待的。
Drow do not keep animals as pets; they prefer pets that can fully comprehend the scope of their reliance and dependence on their masters. Accordingly, many drow keep a favored slave as a personal servant or thrall. These minions are, in truth, little more than pets for the drow, and they are generally treated as such.
大多数去卓尔城的游客记得的“宠物”是蜘蛛。这些害虫是罗丝的宠儿，因为她的教会统治着大多数卓尔城市，蜘蛛在卓尔土地上是很常见的。小一些的巨蜘蛛通常被当作宠物饲养，或者只是作为害虫防治在街上闲逛。在某些情况下，更大的蜘蛛经常被当作守卫，甚至是坐骑。训练不知疲倦的野生蜘蛛做任何事情都是非常困难的，所以许多卓尔城已经培育出专门的蜘蛛来为它们服务。据说剑蛛是其中最成功的一种。
The “pets” that most visitors to a drow city remember are the spiders. These vermin are the favored of Lolth, and because her church rules most drow cities, it is only natural that spiders would be common in drow lands. Smaller monstrous spiders are often kept as pets or simply let loose to wander the streets, serving as pest control. Larger spiders are often kept as guardians or even mounts in some cases. Training unintelligent vermin to do anything is exceedingly difficult, so many drow cities have bred specialized types of spiders to serve them. The sword spider is said to be one of the most successful of these.
卓尔精灵还使用各种地下蜥蜴。他们已经培育出脚上有粘性垫的物种，用作驮畜和坐骑。卓尔有时使用各种大小和品种的蝙蝠用于侦察或警报。各种各样的霉菌、真菌（尤其是尖叫者）和软泥怪常常被用于卓尔陷阱或卫生区域。更为罕见的是，卓尔精灵把穴居人训练成宠物或警卫。
The drow also use of various breeds of subterranean lizards. They have bred species with sticky pads on their feet for use as pack animals and mounts. Drow sometimes use bats of all sizes and breeds as scouts or alarms. Various molds, fungi (especially shriekers), and oozes see common use in drow traps or sanitation areas. More rarely, drow train cavvekans (see the appendix) as pets or guards.
最后，卓尔精灵经常从魔网深狱里带来危险的外界生物来充当守卫或奴仆。噬魂珠（在faerun的怪物中有描述）、狩魔蛛和猎蛛是最常见的，因为它们有着蜘蛛的外表。
Finally, the drow often bring in dangerous outsiders from the Demonweb Pits to serve as guardians or minions. Myrlochar (described in Monsters of Faerun), bebiliths, and retrievers are the most common due to their spiderlike appearances.
