　　这是一个深埋在地表人类熟知的“阳光普照之诸国度The Realms That See The Sun”之下的另一个世界，广漠宽大、无法无天。这是一片危机四伏的荒野，包括黑暗的洞窟、深暗的裂缝和迷宫般的通道：它便是 地底诸国度The Realms Below，浩瀚而神秘的 [[幽暗地域Underdark]]。没有地表冒险者曾窥遍它的所有深度和角落。那些并不在地表栖息的野兽仍潜伏在未知的角落——对幸存的探险家们来说，已知的危险已够糟糕了！<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">There is a world beneath the world humans know—a vast, lawless land under The Realms That See The Sun. It is a perilous wilderland of dark caverns, crevices, and labyrinthine passages: The Realms Below, the vast and mysterious Underdark. No surface adventurer has seen all itsdepths and corners. Beasts that nosurface-dweller yet knows of lurk in itslightless depths—and surviving explorerssay the known dangers are bad enough!</span><br />

　　对粗心大意（或者仅仅已经绝望）的幽暗地域旅行者来说，城市似乎便是黑暗中躲避厄运的避难所。毕竟，城市意味着繁华的生活——食物、工具、以及可能的援助。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">To the unwary (or merely desperate) traveler in the Underdark, a city mayseem a refuge from creeping doom in the darkness. It holds, after all, bustling life—with food, tools, and perhaps aid.</span><br />

　　但事实可能并非如此。在地下，即便是那些善良生物（如矮人、侏儒、掘墓人thaalud 和斯涅布力侏儒）也往往（正确地）以怀疑的眼神看待外来者。其他的城市居民包括（其中包括仅仅只是让人厌恶的种族，如祸蚊jermlaine）诸国度最邪恶、最危险的种族：寇涛鱼人、杜尔加矮人、灵吸怪、斗篷怪、以及其中影响最广泛的卓尔（即黑暗精灵）。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">Perhaps not. Even the good beings of the depths, dwarves, gnomes, thaalud, and svirfneblin, tend to be (rightfully) suspicious of intruders. Other city-dwellers include (among merely nasty folk, such as jermlaine) the most evil and dangerous races of the Realms: kuo-toa, duergar, illithids, cloakers, and most far-reaching of all, drow, the dark elves.</span><br />

　　这个致命种族的关键指南是《<i>[[幽暗地域的卓尔Drow of the Underdark]]</i>》一书。地下城主可以结合它以及《<i>[[怪物纲要Monstrous Compendium]]</i>》卷2中“精灵，卓尔Elf, Drow”条目来熟悉卓尔精灵的“基本概念”。然而，如果这位地下城主想要理解这一种族非凡的力量与影响力，就必须了解一座卓尔的城市。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">The essential guide to this deadly race is the sourcebook <i>Drow of the Underdark</i>. A DM familiar with it and the "Elf, Drow" entry in Volume 2 of the <i>Monstrous Compendium</i> knows drow "basics." To understand the unusual power and influence of drow, however, one must see a drow city.</span><br />

　　在这些残酷、不断交战的卓尔中，生活会是什么模样可以从 R.A.萨尔瓦多R.A. Salvatore 的 被遗忘的国度®FORGOTTEN REALMS® 系列小说《<i>故土Homeland</i>》和《<i>流亡Exile</i>》一窥，但如果想让一座卓尔城市鲜活起来，还需要更多：比如这套盒装书。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">Something of what life is like amid the cruel, ever-warring drow can be gleaned from the FORGOTTEN REALMS® novels <i>Homeland</i> and <i>Exile</i> by R.A. Salvatore, but bringing a drow city to life needs more:this boxed set.</span><br />

　　在本集的三本书中，本册是关于 [[魔索布莱城Menzoberranzan]]（一座中等规模的重要卓尔城市）的指南，（对大部分地表人来说，谢天谢地的是！）从最近的地表通道前往需要1周的旅程。同套的其它书则详述了城市的贵族家族和冒险的点子。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">Of the set's three books, this tome is a guide to Menzoberranzan, a drow city of middling size and importance that is (thank fully to most surface folk!) a week's travel from the nearest surface connection. Companion books detail its nobles and suggest adventures.</span><br />

　　我们在约40座已知的卓尔城市中，选择了魔索布莱城作为探讨对象，这是因为它是著名的 [[崔斯特·杜垩登Drizzt Do'Urden]]（其人详述于本套装集的第二册，其数据的更新来自《[[英雄殿堂Hall of Heroes]]》）。让我们审视一下他从中一跃而出的这团诡异、严酷、有时又灿烂夺目的邪恶粪坑，这将会告诉我们卓尔如何成为诸国度一支强权——并打开那道通向在卓尔统治的幽暗地域展开生动冒险的大门。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">We’ve explored Menzoberranzan, of the forty or so known drow cities, because it is the birth place of the famous Drizzt Do'Urden (himself detailed in Book II of this boxed set, his statistics updated from Hall of Heroes). A look at the strange, harsh, and at times splendid cesspool of evil from which he sprang shows how drow became a power in the Realms—and unlocks the door to vivid adventures in the drow-ruled Underdark.</span><br />

　　你可以用这套书创建任何地下卓尔城市，从改变其布局、到贵族家族的名字和NPC的详述、以及贸易利益与居民总体目标。<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">This set can be used to create any subterranean drow city by changing the layout, the names and detailed NPCs of the noble Houses, and the trade interests and overall aims of the inhabitants.</span><br />

　　将对罗丝无处不在的崇拜（魔索布莱人称之为“[[罗斯Lloth]]”）替换为罗丝、[[关纳德Ghaunadaur]]、[[维伦Vhaeraun]] 之间的紧张竞争，你就得到了 [[艾瑞德林城Eryndlyn]]，这是一座位于 [[至高荒原The High Moor]] 中某处隐藏洞穴的城市，与 [[剑湾Sword Coast]] 进行着贸易。若改为纯关纳德信仰（加上对黏怪、果冻怪和软泥怪的崇敬和培育），你就得到了 [[鲁尔斯·德雷尔城Llurth Dreier]]，一座有40000卓尔精灵人口的城市，统治着位于 [[夏亚The Shaar]] 地下、矮人的 [[深地王国The Deep Realm]]（详述于《<i>[[矮人深地Dwarves Deep]]</i>》）西北的广阔真菌农场洞窟。若由巫师统治，让女祭司降为次一级的权力者，你就得到了位于 [[远丘The Far Hills]] 地下某处的魔法物品贸易城市 [[沙玛斯城Sshamath]]。阅读本书，找寻冒险！<br />
<span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">Change the all-pervasive worship of Lolth ("Lloth" to Menzoberranyr) to atense rivalry between worshippers of Lolth, Ghaunadaur, and Vhaeraun, and you have Eryndlyn, a city that trades with the Sword Coast from hidden caves somewhere in The High Moor. Change it to the worship of Ghaunadaur only (with reverence and breeding of slimes, jellies, an doozes) and you have Llurth Dreier, a city of 400,000 drow ruling vast fungi-farm caverns under The Shaar, northwest of The Deep Realm of the dwarves (detailed in <i>Dwarves Deep</i>). Let mages rule, reducing priestesses to minor power, and you have the magical item-trading city of Sshamath, somewhere beneath The Far Hills. Readon, and find adventure!</span><br />
