From the 2e book by Greenwood “2e drow of the underdark” not the newer one.
“Under dark. Drow who fall in combat are customarily animated as zombies (so long as their lower limbs are usable) by drow clerics, not left for others to plun¬ der. Such zombies are often commanded to carry less-mobile dead and wounded, and are also useful as “shock troops”.”

DROW COUNTER TO COUNTER - light existing upon meeting usu makes drow attack … use HAND OF DARKNESS spells to kill light sources

Remember some soell resistance
Parlay?

Giant elementals? Wait are these remaining the Lloth ones? If so, Draegloths or driders or other?
