| hiya i would suggest having a good look at this site http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page there's all sorts of info there. while Riei is right, a certain amount of basic knowledge really does help a lot, if nothing else in orientating someone. About exploring out of shadowdale, this is definitely something you can ask IC  If you get really stuck then pm me and ill help were I can |

| Wanna know about drows? I can tell you about drow..
IC that is. OOC info that you'd know: They're very much like the boogeymen of Faerun, think of the axe-murderer you imagined in your closet as a kid, except real, and a lot worse.
Standard reaction is: Run like all hell, or try to kill them, but it's known that drow are by no means weak. _________________ -Characters- Shula' - Black Archer (Journal) - Gone to another plane Ciardha Nyilas - Dark Ranger (Journal) - DeceasedZilvlyn Dabel'kith - Ferret Trainer -Characters- My Book Deviant Art Steam |

| Anything is open to play (minus the DM approved PrCs).
But some are a lot harder than others. |

| i would very storngly recommend you do not choose a drow as your first char
it's like having your first alcoholic drink and choosing ouzo.
Seriously, if you do, read up on it a -lot- first and be prepared for a baptism of fire. But I honestly woudl not recommend them as a first char.
A fighter on the surface is a good first char and you can abandon him / her and choose another class / race later if you like. but drow are ... difficult. _________________ My hero http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlS3w1GGE8g&feature=player_embedded (with sound! )
