@Arne I don't know if you remember or read the series by R.A. Salvatore which has been out for about 25 years or so. But Drizzt Do'urden was a drow that left the Undark because he was the opposite of most Drow. Where Drow were hated and despised because of who and what they were by the folks on the surface Drizzt set out to change that stereotype towards the Drow by helping ut the different races. Now there were trials and tribulations but a lot of the things for which he accomplished while living on the surface changed folks' perspective of the drow.
Now it's an interesting series of books which I highly reccomend
Drizzt was in Baldur's Gate 2 and of course there were also Viconia and Solaufein.
In fact, one of the coolest pen & paper games I had was when I allowed someone to play a Drow and she had to constantly hide her face and use the other players to do the talking for her. And when someone found out, the party would receive negative reputation like in BG2.
The great thing was, when we once came into the Underdark, suddenly *she* was the one able to enter a Drow city and pass her friends off as her "slaves"
We had a lot of fun that evening.
