Would you be completely averse to a 3rd or 4th party member if I agree to
DM?  I have a couple friends who are longing to play and are in similar
situations to your own.  Drow fantasy is no problem. I was thinking about
running Night Below (with a few adjustments)... or if you've played it then
maybe I could run something else... I have a pretty extensive collection.

Anyway... let me know if you are still interested.
