Drow Toxicant (Basic Lore)

Drow Toxicant (CR 21)
Lawful Evil - Medium - Fey (Drow)
Of the teeming masses of male Drow, many of them are rugged sorts, able and willing to draw blades and battle to the death for their House and Matriarch without hesitation. But those are not the only kinds of Drow males. Drow Toxicants are the smart, studious, devout, slightly-built and fiercely intelligent sort of Drow males. They handle all the administration of the Great Houses, taking care of the clerical drudgery required to support the great armies of the Regents. But that does not make them incapable combatants! If anything, their fierce devotion, great intelligence, and unconventional attacks make them more dangerous than more martially inclined Drow. Indeed, Toxicants are dangerous and capable enough that special care is expended to make utterly certain they are as loyal as it is possible to be. As a result, Drow Toxicants treat their Houses with truly religious fervor and even draw Divine power from this worship! They use this power to even further extend their dangerous combat abilities while also providing succor and support for more martial Drow they may be partnered with.
