Family names
The majority of the Children are drows, some of them having a long history as Llothian families before the rise of the Faith of Children of The Dancer. However, some Wood Elves and Tieflings of the island also identify themselves as part of the group. As such, the family names reflect that.
The Drow
The drow of the Children wanted to differentiate themselves from their Llothian cousins, and to do that they have taken family names more similar to their Wood Elf cousins. Names of the drow families often have gloomy feel or connections to symbolism of goddess Eilistraee. They are most likely to refer element of fire, ice, and sometimes earth. They might also refer to metals and gems like added names of Dwarfs, but tend to be either more elegant or cruel in tone.
Some house names include:
Greendust, Steelglide, Bloodworth, Flintblaze, Deathhand, Driftripple
For the names of Great Houses, equallent to nobility among the Children, see Great Houses of Netehdrez and Great Houses of Zaetron Derraz.
