The worst part about irrelevant lore tidbits like this is that you know some sweaty dweeb thought of it whilst masturbating.
Yeah I sure did.
Still do.
Nothing wrong with making a fictional race as disturbing as possible
The “mother finds this orgasmic” part doesn’t add to how disturbing the concept is though it just makes me feel weird about the writer
Yeah, just cut that part and its good for a race thats supposed to be disturbing
Yeah… a LOT of the Drow lore got amped up around the time Salvatore was writing about Drizzt.
Some of it was like “the Tau are actually led by mind control” in that it was always there but mostly ignored. But most of the REAL fucked up “let’s have an orgy with your siblings” stuff was very much done to make Drizzt cooler and… yeah…
Its why anyone who insists “they ruined Forgotten Realms” and “We need to go back to the good old days” deserves some massive side eyeing,
Oh, old D&D was pretty weird, and there have been writers saying some real weird shit. There’s disturbing and there’s that, something that’s not necessary if you have a decent amount of writing skill.
Hell, they could have just not used “orgasmic” and just said “this is respected in drow society”.
Agreed. Makes the drow slaying more impactful. Less infanticidal orgasms, what a noble goal.
Is that the fucker responsible?!
You have no idea of the quagmire you’ve wandered into. Chad-zak is a funny meme leave it at that. Don’t Google it. Don’t delve any further. There are things worse than balrogs down there.
