Drow Captain

Drow Captain
Drow, CE Medium Humanoid
Level 9 (+5)
"Welcome to my house, Captain. I understand you were once a commoner? Well, no more, you will command my armed forces for the next ten years. Follow every command I give without question, fail me in not a single task, and after this time should you prove your excellence in this and…...other…...areas…....you may be allowed to join my house. Disappoint me, and you will be tossed back into the gutter you crawled out of, a drained and twisted corpse."
——Words commonly spoken to a Drow Captain
Drow Captains are Warriors who have grown in experience and clawed their way through the ranks of other common warriors to lead contingents of the armies of a Noble House. For many Drow Male commoners, this is perhaps the only path to ascension made available to them through the suffocating and unforgiving matriarchal hierarchy of their race. For this reason, such a role is highly sought after and fought for aggressively. This has the added benefit for the Priestesses and Matrons they serve, creating only the most deadly and skilled of fighters to slave for their cause. Drow Captains are exceptional fighters and skilled strategists, also typically being better equipped than common warriors.
