 All drow heroes start with a [[black signet ring]], which is a [[randomized appearance]] for [[ring]]s that allows the ring to function as a means of injecting poison: when [[dipped]] into an eligible [[potion]], the ring absorbs 30 doses of poison, which can be inflicted on opponents by attacking them in bare-handed combat while wearing the ring without any type of [[gloves]] on; if two signet rings are worn, both apply their poison. A drow hero's starting signet rings are pre-loaded with doses of [[drug-injecting]], [[sleep]]-inducing poison, and will always be of a valid ring type for their role. Signet rings also bear specific crests, sometimes including the silvered holy symbols of drow deities: rings that have a spiderweb design on them add +5 damage to unarmed attacks, while rings with holy symbols count as silver rings when attacking silver-hating monsters.
-Droven weapons have higher base damage than most starting weapons, and are made of [[Obsidian (dNetHack)|obsidian]] except for the droven crossbow: obsidian is lighter in [[weight]] than most [[metallic]] materials, but is [[fragile]] and shatters when [[thrown]] or [[fired]] unless it is [[fixed]]. The droven crossbow is made of [[silver]] and bears the holy symbol of [[Lolth (dNetHack)|Lolth]], and all obsidian droven weapons in a drow hero's starting inventory will be drug-coated (i.e. covered with the same sleep-inducing poison as used for rings).

 Droven plate mail and chain mail are made out of [[shadowsteel]]: shadowsteel is even lighter than obsidian and other metallic materials and is quite durable, but slowly evaporates with each step taken in a lit square until it is eventually destroyed; the odds of evaporation can be reduced by wearing a cloak over it that grants [[magic cancellation]] (with higher MC cloaks offering more reduction in the chance of evaporation), and fixed shadowsteel will even gradually auto-repair in unlit squares.
