In that case, let my human paladin worship Lolth too, because why not?

No, I dare say. Not like this. Not for free.

How about a compromise? Let a player create a Male Drow Cleric of Lolth, but not without consequences. (Lolth would want your PC to die, so some penalties/randomness in spells, curses like you transform to spider while resting(?) for example, etc.) That might at least make things interesting.


And let's also introduce The Test of Lolth into the game so that those who play for Drow Lolth play as in hardcore mode

Such attentions to details would only make this almost perfect game perfecter.
