 The L’aelus are the most changed of all the races who fled to the new continent from the old. The changes derive from their abandonment by their previous patron goddess, Lolth. With the removal of the requirement of near constant blood sacrifices the L’aelus have had a resurgence of culture and order after such a long period of chaos. The primary result of the removal of the sacrifices has been a lengthening of the average lifespan of those who now live in the new lands. Previously, few of this race lived longer than two hundred fifty years because if they were not killed by a rival or enemy Lolth would get impatient and claim their souls to feed her eternal hunger. Those who escaped such a fate found their lives extending much longer, reaching nearer four or five hundred years of age before old age claims them. Increased longevity allowed the L’aelus to develop their own culture and art under the forgiving influence of their new patron Ssrigg’nala. L’aelus society fought amongst themselves for a thousand years after their settlement in the new land. The power structur juggled as the priestesses lost their traditional power over life and death and were completely cut off from their divine power. Males managed to regain some measure of status and power during this time, gaining stature and managing to throw off the traditional reigns that Lolth had placed o­n them. The females retained much of their power; the authority of the priestesses became relegated to the heads of the houses that survived the war and subsequent battles for position that followed. With great surprise the L’aelus found that their traditional resistance to the arcane arts had faded along with their support from Lolth, making the battles for position and superiority particularly bloody as magical might was unleashed from any house that had the resources to command it. Eventually the battles of position ended, leaving five main houses in control of the rest of the L’aelus. These five houses formed a council to govern their new home in the Underdark, each o­ne sending a single representative to control their interests in this new council. Most commonly these representatives are the Matrons of their respective houses, though o­n rare occasions others are chosen to represent their house’s interests and o­n very rare occasions the representative sent is a male. The council of five houses makes all laws for the parts of the Underdark they rule over, and often take petitions from others to settle disputes between the more minor houses and businesses.
