I agree that I would like Good or Evil as a choice somewhere in the creation, or make it based on Deity choice so you gain like a tag based on Deity. I chose Tyr, so people might treat me better if they know this. I might choose Selune, so Shadowheart might hate me. Shouldn't be just a Cleric choice and shouldn't be a Drow choice either. Everyone should have to pick their Deity or at least select None.

As for whether Drow should be a separate race, I don't care as long as I can play one. That said, it wouldn't hurt to put them as an Elf subrace.

One point I will make, though, is that in many video games, Dark Elves are separated out. I think people who don't know D&D well get confused if they don't. Do game designers make Drow their own race so players know it's an option.
