Lolth

Though Lolth succeeded in defeating the forces of Adar she could not earn the friendship of her elvish brethren. With great sorrow Lolth was driven out of Elvish lands and into the great caverns with run beneath the surface of Adurra. Lolth was the first drow, and slowly she gained followers who came to join her to learn the secrets of magic. Soon Lolth created a dark society of elves within the Underdark dedicated to the unrestrained study of magic.
Reaching after ever more esotric power these studies took a turn to the perverse. Lolth wanted to plumb the depths of magical knowledge, and in so doing carried out horrific experiments on prisoners, students, and even herself. In an attempt to make his people more suited to their environment Lolth forever altered them with jet black skin, and eyes that could see even in pitch darkness. Though many of her followers lamented the changes, for it made going to the surface quite unpleasant, they trusted her. Over the years Lolth grew more insane. One of the main manifestations of this madness was an obsession with spiders. She kept thousands as pets, and became consumed with the idea of becoming a spider herself: to become the perfect predator. One day Lolth succeeded in transforming herself into an enormous spider that towered over her students. Her people were terrified, but in fear for their lives began to worship her as a living God. In time Lolth sought greater and greater power to make the content of their prayers a reality. In her exploration of the Under-Dark she found a shard of Pan'll, the god blade, hidden deep in the darkest cavern. Scrying great power from this shard Lolth stabbed herself in the heart sacrificing her mortal body for something more: The Goddess of Spiders and the Dark
