Many moons ago, I shared this idea I'd had: https://forums.giantitp.com/showthre...tions-interest

TL/DR, Llolth as a creation deity for surface-dwelling, nature-y drow.

Just wanted to share a recent evolution I'd had of that idea.

Clans are ruled by Matriarchs that take on the form of driders. Mature males, after their years of wandering, return and demonstrate the value of what they've experienced via interpretive dance performed for the matriarch. If she finds it of value, he is ritualistically sacrificed and eaten; his genetic memories are then passed on to the next generation of eggs she lays.
