Drow Commander
Drow Commander
Drow, E Medium Humanoid
Complex Monster, XP 6000
Level 15 (+7)
"Watch this new captain closely, Commander. I heard rumor that he was once a commoner in a House we crushed. It is possible that he serves as a spy or an agent of vengeance. If he shows even the slightest hint of disloyalty, inform me immediately. If he shows outright defiance or commits an act of betrayal, well, you know what must become of him."
——Words commonly spoken to a Drow Commander
At the highest echelons of Drow Military service sits the Drow Commander, who typically leads the entire army of the Noble House he has sworn to serve. This is the highest position a Male in this society can achieve before being brought into nobility. A Drow warrior at this level must be exceptionally adept at martial combat, and typically does not make mistakes in military strategy or political scheming. Doing so at that point in his career would spell certain doom, for there is nothing the Drow despise more than incompetence. For this reason, the Commander lives only to achieve excellence, and will always look for the most efficient and deadly way to eliminate obstacles before him.
