About Drow names

Drow names suit subterranean cultures shaped by secrecy, ceremony, dangerous alliances, and survival in lightless cities. Sibilants, clipped syllables, and elegant consonant clusters create a refined but guarded sound. These original names support nobles, scouts, priestesses, renegades, merchants, and mages without lifting vocabulary from established settings.
