Well we were talking about a cult not a race but, sure, let's talk about evil races 🙂
As I read the Drizzt books he (and Lirel) are the exceptions to the rule. The matron mothers want to bring our hero down because his existence is anathema to their worldview and an insult the Spider Queen herself. They are evil and, through great effort, Drizzt managed to forge his own path -- with some help by Mielikki and a blind ranger.
