Missing something in the Priestess Gut scene....
So, even as well-versed as I am in DnD, the conversation with Priestess Gut has something in it I am missing.

During the conversation, if you agree to her help, she wants you to drink a potion. One of the options has [Drow] next to it that just has you drink the potion (if you are Drow). Then she gets mad and attacks you.

What am I missing here? This doesn't make a lot of sense to me and I redid the whole conversation 3 times to try and understand. Maybe someone can enlighten me on the context that is slipping through my fingers here.

yes, there is a passive check I think to tell it's a sleeping potion, the Drow option to drink it anyway because they are immune, and she gets pissed because it didn't work.

You're supposed to block her out when she tries to connect with you telepathically, otherwise she will eventually attack you.

This is what I thought might be the case, but wasn't sure.

You would think she would know that considering she works with other Drow, but whatever.

It's a sleeping poison. Because elves are immune to sleep magic, the Drow tag there is to indicate that you know it is a sleep potion and you're drinking it anyways since it won't have any effect on you.

Fun fact Being adrow locks you out of the easiest way to kill her which is drinking the potion and then just staying put, you will be saved
