Naming a drow fighter
A drow fighter carries drow naming tradition into the fighter's calling. Drow names are sharper and darker than surface elven names, favouring z, x, v, and ae sounds. They carry the intrigue of a matriarchal Underdark society where a house name is a weapon and a warning. A fighter — a disciplined veteran of a hundred skirmishes — tends toward plain, sturdy names that read as dependable on a muster roll. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
