DnD Portraits: Rook

The Szarkai - “ghost spiders” - are a rare and mysterious secret kept by the already-reclusive societies of the drow. These unique individuals, born paler than others of their kind by rare chance, have the ability to conceal themselves as the elven races of the world above - and for this reason, Szarkai children were destined to undergo special training to become elite spies and secret agents.

Rook, along with his twin sister Lytra, were born into this rare situation -- but Rook, always gentle-hearted, saw the cruelty in their training and the murderous missions they were made to undertake. In defiance of drow tradition, Rook abandoned his old name - the name of the woman he was born and raised to become. He now lives as a man in the world above, seeking to find purpose and camaraderie in the fellow drow who wish to make a better life for themselves - or even for others, too.
