Drow
often emulate spiderwebs in the layout of buildings and passages. Traps
and falling walls force intruders towards the radial center of the “web”
where the drow of most power will be found.
Even a simple
villa usually sports traps to discourage intruders, such as “spring-guns”
crossbows fired by someone tripping fine, dark trigger-lines of spider-silk
or waxed cord).
Common drow
live in small caves, or in circular, walled houses, with dug-put cellars
and adobe-like construction. These are always as beautiful as possible,
and increase in size and grandeur with the wealth of the owner, until they
become the grand villas of wealthy merchants, merchant clans, and noble
Houses.
