Lolth the Spider Queen

Lolth is a goddess of cold cruelty not out of place in the darkest depths of the endless Abyss, reveling in betrayal and bloodshed and toying with everyone from her minions to her victims. She not only enjoys, but thrives on torture, destruction, and death, whether personally performing it or causing it. Every interaction is ultimately done with malice, ill will seething from her every move, and even those who know her well can be surprised by just how deep her viciousness goes. Her malevolence is endless, complicated and deliberate. Most of all it is capricious

Lolth demands absolute fealty and obedience from all drow, and questioning her motives or wisdom is considered a sin. This applied even to male drow despite her considering them to be unclean, and she takes vengeful notice if one abandons her faith. She also secretly desires the worship of other types of elves, as well as humans, and enjoys corrupting them into her service even more than torment and devastation. In contrast, she sows unending chaos amongst the drow, eternally setting them against each other. Ostensibly this is to weed out the weak and complacent, leaving only the strongest, cruelest, and most devious to serve her, and to some degree she believs this, but it is also simply for her own amusement and supremacy.

Despite her demands for loyalty, those who blindly obey Lolth's demands will find themselves quickly led to their deaths. In truth, Lolth's capricious nature means that there are few hard-and-fast rules, and much uncertainty as to her desires.
