  Menzoberranzan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Menzoberranzan, the City of Spiders, is a fictional city-state in the world of the Forgotten Realms, a Dungeons and Dragons campaign setting.
It is famed as the birthplace of Drizzt Do'Urden.
Menzoberranzan was founded by a priestess of Lolth named Menzoberra the Kinless.

 House Do'Urden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Drizzt, returned from his battle with Masoj and Gelross, and discovered what had happened to his father deserted House Do'Urden and left Menzoberranzan House Hun'ett lost two of its wizards and the favor of Lolth for failing to kill Drizzt, and House Do'Urden lost the favor of Lolth because of Drizzt's desertion.
Drizzt left Menzoberranzan, and eventually found his way to the surface after time alone in the wilds of the Underdark and a sojourn with the deep gnomes.
The first time this happened was after Drizzt had fled from Menzoberranzan and was living in the wilds of the Underdark.

An accomplished wizard and the archmage of Menzoberranzan, he chafed under the rule of the drow priestesses and, in particular, cares little for his sister Triel but has to respect her role and power.

They number about 12.000 in total and while the House Jaelre is out to reclaim the surface and especially the Elven Court, the Auzkovyn have turned away from their racial hatred against the elves and half-elves by accepting them into their ranks and appear to be less hostile to their neighbours in general.
Not much is known about the fate of the Lolthites of this region, who came either from Maerimydra or via portals from Menzoberranzan, though most might have been killed or driven off by their more powerful rivals.

 War of the Spider Queen
Unlike Menzoberranzan, which always struck me as a city like many others, if you got past the underground part of it, Ched Nasad is suspended among giant web strands (earning it the nickname of "The City of Shimmering Webs"), with buildings being built from what look like egg sacs.
In the meantime, things are moving in Menzoberranzan, as the usual intrigues are mixed with the plans of Nimor Imphraezl, the Annointed Blade of the Jaezred Chaulssin-who is manipulating dark elves, gray dwarves, and fiends to a single goal: the destruction of Menzoberranzan.
The drow from Menzoberranzan and Ched Nasad have returned-rather abruptly-from the Demonweb Pits, where the Spider Queen makes her home; and yet again, they are on the surface.

Dark elves, driders, ropers, carrion crawlers, centaurs, thieves and mages, are but a few of the beasts and other characters you will meet and either dispatch or befriend on your journey to the depths of the earth to rescue the folk kidnapped from your village by the Drow.
Set in a magical, mythical, medieval world, Menzoberranzan is an underground city populated by the Drow, the darker brothers of the Elf, and ruled over by Lolth their scheming spider queen.
It's major problem was that it took too long before anything really 'happened' and when it did the ensuing action and intrigue didn't manage to compensate for the long hours it took getting up to that point.

This code forced me to leave Menzoberranzan, for though I was not certain of what those truths might have been, I knew what beyond doubt that they would not be found in the darkness of Lloth.
Indeed, as I consider it now, the only monuments in Menzoberranzan are the statues of those punished by Baenre, of those struck by Vendes and her wicked whip, their skin turned to ebony, that they might then be placed on display as testaments of disobedience on the plateau of Tier Breche outside the Academy.

The fabled Dark Elven city of Menzoberranzan is an ancient city, one that existed even before the age of Netheril.
During that era, Menzoberranzan paid homage to the Dark Goddess Cithara, and grew to ritualize customs that would hold true for many millenia.
Wage war against rival houses in the city by recruiting drow conscripts into your forces, summoning the viscious demons and handmaidens of Cithara, and by developing superior defenses.

 GameSpy: A History of D&D Video Games - Part III
Perhaps realizing that the other settings weren't working, SSI really pulled out all the stops for Menzoberranzan.
Despite the Drow's vaunted reputation for treachery and political backstabbing, Menzoberranzan's storyline was rather linear and boring, taken up with a plot more suited to a local goblin chieftain than D&D's masters of deceit.
The rest of the game was adequate, built as it was on the Ravenloft gameplay, but without a great plot and exciting monsters that truly utilized its spectacular setting, Menzoberranzan ended up being less impressive than it was in players' imaginations.
