History
SIDE NOTE: This is NOT based on the Drizzt books, I took it into another twist so do not come raining down crap about the books because I didn't do what they said.
The Foundation of the DZA
The Great Drow Drift
For many centuries the Drow lived in the Underdark, the world underground in the cave systems of the world of Forgotten Realms. Mostly a female dominated race, the Drow in the Underdark usually follow the evil god of Lolth, the Spider Queen. It is Lolth that gave the Drow direction and the law of how to conduct her society and her rule over the Drow. However, there was one Drow that defied the norm of believing, worshipping, and being opressed under Lolth; the name of that Drow was Drizzt Do'Urden . He and his animal companion, the black panther Guenhwyvar, setted out due to some incident within his house (modern records today have no information of Drizzts Life before he came out of the Underdark, only Drizzt himself knows and he has declined for many centuries ,since the nations founding, to share it to the public), Drizzt and Guenhwyvar drifted out from the Underdark and made it to a life outside aboveground, away from his homeland. For several years he was in hiding because the many races above viewed Drows (with good reason) as vile blood-bathing monsters. Unknown to Drizzt at the time however, there was a bizarre change taking place in the society of the Underdark that shall forever change his life and his forecoming path as a guide and leader. There were a sudden emergence of Drows that rebelled against the norm system of the religon of Lolth and the society which it was doctrinated on. From several written accounts, it was told that there was a civil war between these rebellious youth and the house of the Underdark which lead to the defeat of the rebels and the survivors of the war to drift to the surface for refuge from being captured from Lolth loyalists. These survivors slowly found Drizzt in a unknown wood in the North lands near Icewind Dale, which took Drizzt by surprise and at first, was cautious because there was the upmost possbility of raid mobs conducted by the Underdark Armies. Slowly overtime during that meeting, the refugee Drows and Drizzt slowly became comrades in arms. After a unqiue discussion with the temporary leaders of the refuge band, Drizzt gained the support and vote of being the leader of the new "reformed" Drow. Overtime in the woods near Icewind Dale, Drizzt taught the refugees how to survive on the surface, how to tolerate the sun (since Drows usually die and burn to a crisp if come in contact with the suns rays), and how to speak local Languages. There was a surpreme difficulty still in place for the refugee Drow. The majority of the races were now on hunts for any Drow raid on the surface, and there were a few incidents where some of the Drow had to fight mercenaries and Elven hunter groups to protect the Drow. A decison had to be made to keep the unique Drow community alive.
Deciding the Course
Drizzt and the elders of the refugee group soon moved into the Icewind Dale region for safety during the winter seasons to avoid large Drow hunting armies. The Drow quickly adapted to the harsh climate very quickly since the cold....*will finish later*
