Vhaeraun, also called the Masked Lord, the Masked God of Night, The Shadow,[7] and, less frequently, the Shadow Lord,[8] the Masked Mage and the Lord of Shadow was the drow god of drow males, thievery, territory, shadow magic, spellfilchers,[4] and evil activities on the surface, aimed to further drow goals, interests, and power there.[6][3]
Vhaeraun was the son of Araushnee[7] and Corellon Larethian.[9] He held the unique view among drow that males and females were equally valuable[6] and was primarily prayed to by those drow males who sought a better life than slavery under Lolth's matriarchy[30][10] and who opposed it.[11] [2]
