Denizens of The Underdark
Originally believed to have been bred by drow magicians as a slave race, the quaggoth escaped and filled their own niche in the Underdark. The origin of the quaggoths was unknown. Some sages claim that they were once a semi-civilized race that dominated much of the Underdark through conquest and ritual sacrifice, until the drow, duergar, and other races broke their power. Others speculated they had some sort of civilization on the surface and were driven underground; this theory was supported by the quaggoths' hatred for surface-dwelling dwarves and elves.
