Menzoberra

Menzoberra was a drow high priestess of Lolth, who founded the city of Menzoberranzan.

History
After decades of infighting among the drow of Golothaer, and at the behest of the Spider Queen, who gave her the title Yor'thae (Chosen one), Menzoberra the Kinless led seven drow families from their southern holdings of Great Bhaerynden into the Northdark. By -3917 DR, after several years in the dark deeps of the Underdark, the refugees came to a giant cavern inhabited by a swarm of spiders and the legendary beholder, Many Eyes. After a long battle with many losses for the drow, Menzoberra laid the final blow on the beholder. When the battle was over, a yochlol appeared in front of the surviving drow proclaiming the cavern was to be their new home: "Menzoberranzan" in recognition of Menzoberra's service to Lolth.
