  • In the century following the Spellplague, a growing faction of drow divorced themselves from the old ways of their people to follow a new path. They believed the only way to weather the troubles affecting the lands would be to approach their dealings with other intelligent races in a way that did not always result in violence. Rather than taking what they wanted, when resources were already scarce, perhaps they could achieve better results by engaging their enemies in trade, exchanging valuable metals, gemstones, and other goods found exclusively in the Underdark for commodities generally absent from the depths of the earth.

  • In the century following the Spellplague, a growing faction of drow divorced themselves from the old ways of their people to follow a new path. They believed the only way to weather the troubles affecting the lands would be to approach their dealings with other intelligent races in a way that did not always result in violence. Rather than taking what they wanted, when resources were already scarce, perhaps they could achieve better results by engaging their enemies in trade, exchanging valuable metals, gemstones, and other goods found exclusively in the Underdark for commodities generally absent from the depths of the earth. In order to facilitate this, they formed a new commercial organization, the Horizon Syndicate. Despite mistrust from others, the organization has spread, enabling trade between surface and Underdark communities.
