Secrets and Clues
The bullywugs know of Erelhei-Cinlu. Some bullywugs work for the drow for protection and stable sources of food and water. The drow are stern but fair.
A cold war exists in Erelhei-Cinlu. House Eilservs rules, but is constantly threatened by the other houses. Matron mother Eclavdra d'Eilservs is the matron mother of Erelhei-Cinlu.
House Eilservs is served by members of House Tormtor (rank 6 but powerful).
Hawkwind is the second son of the matron mother of House Tormtor.
Eclavdra wants the characters to destroy House Despana who consorts with demons and eats babies.
House Godeep (6): Committed to the anti-Eilservs faction. They deal in psionics and have a connection to an illithid elder brain.
The Black Cathedral isn't a place. It's a whole world. A demiplane connected to other planes through a single gateway.
Lady's Kiss can sever the webs of Lolth's Egg to enter the Demonweb Pits and make their way to the Black Cathedral.
Any of the obelisks can draw someone to the Black Cathedral. Matron Mother Eclavdra knows how to do so.
Eclavdra seeks to summon Lolth so she might kill her and become a new goddess of the drow.
Hawkwind is in Erelhei-Cinlu with orders to kill Zaffre and Chartreuse. Eclavdra is willing to give him up to get what she wants.
Eclavdra has several motivations – she wishes to slay Lolth and become a new goddess, she wants to join forces with the sisters to take over the surface elves, she wants the characters to shift the power dynamic of Erelhei Cinlu, she wants to know what happens when the characters cross the Threshold.
