Dark Elves

Can I play as Drow/Dark Elf in WotR?

[dszombiex]

No.

[Immortal Reaver]

And you do not want to if you are in position that are interest to public.

Strange what was the reasoning for leaving them out ??

Because you would be constantly hunted by assasins. Maybe Kyonin would even attack the Mendev and sabotage Crusade.

Yeah a real pity. there are mentions of drow in this game to add salt to the wound. They even removed the drow-ish skin color from character creation (in kingmaker you could choose the typical dark greyish skin) for whatever stupid reason. Could've implemented some way to disguise your character being a drow or something, like it was done with the undead PC in divinity original sin 2...
in nwn2 and bg3 you can play drow :)

[Dragon Master]

You can play as a dhampir though.

ive found a random encounter with a drow scouting party. so its not that they arent implemented.

heh maybe they removed the drow skin colors because they'll add them through another way after all... but maybe that's just wishful thinking

Yeah and that is DnD, not Pathfinder. drows in Pathfinder are different. Here Kyonin elves greatest wish is total exctintion of drows.

Reasonable sulution if one is imperative.

I hope. Anyway, for me, it's better to postpone the game till all the DLCs are out. Kingmaker has not been fixed yet.

Drows are incredible evil in this setting and they are also extremely rare on the surface. There is one Paizo campaign where the main story is about drows going to war with the surface.

I don't care about the lore Can some one be MY PERSONAL Hero an make a mode to inject them as a playable race (an no not caring if they are OP or Chaotic Evil) an no I don't want to just look like a drow (wanna be vampire) I want all the stats that go with it screw it Faerun is invading put the whole dark elf pantheon in.

I think they completely got rid of Drow in PF2, too. Don't remember if it was some politically correct stuff or just the regular ditching anything connected to the D&D franchise.
