House Faen Tlabbar

House Faen Tlabbar was a drow house of Menzoberranzan.

Headquarters
House Faen Tlabbar was based in a large castle of dark stone. It was one of the largest houses not on the plateau of Qu'ellarz'orl. It was located along the southern wall and had tall spires. It was known for its lizard-mounted guards who wielded crossbows and lances. However, the house had a blind spot in its connection to the roof.

House Faen Tlabbar was protected by a spell of forbidding. Something that the guards wore allow them passage. The doors of the house were made of pale zurkhwood. There was a large hall of which were studies, parlors, and trophy rooms. The floor was shiny black marble. There was a shrine to Lolth at the end with a large double door; the shrine itself was a dome encrusted with gems. The chapel had a guardian demon of skeleton covered in green flames with a flowing scimitar.

Activities
House Faen Tlabbar was considered to be one of the most fanatical of all the drow houses of Menzoberranzan.

History
In 1358 DR, Matron Mother Ghenni'tiroth Tlabbar was killed by K'yorl Odran.

Some time prior to 1372 DR, the human sorceress and psionicist Smylla Nathos dwelt with House Faen Tlabbar until they grew tired of her novelty and cast her out.

In 1372 DR, House Faen Tlabbar was the third house.

To secure an alliance with House Agrach Dyrr during the Silence of Lolth in 1372 DR, Nimor Imphraezl of the Jaezred Chaulssin snuck into the house chapel and slew both Matron Mother Ghenni Tlabbar and her daughter Sil'zet. The fifth daughter, Valdalma, was also present but survived and became the next matron mother.

In 1484 DR, House Faen Tlabbar became the third house after House Xorlarrin left the city for Q'Xorlarrin.
