Plot Summary
Midnight Downstar details the epic adventure of an elven boy born to human parents. Siras by name, his memories are long distant links to a past he had never been allowed to remember. Senger and Jallil, his gracious elven hosts, bring upon their soon to be son-in-law a task that he can no longer be delayed. Azairah, their daughter, had been kidnapped by the drow, long after their raid upon the surface. With a weary heart, Siras continues to deny his relation with his hosts till a tragic accident places the death of his true father upon a group of drow rogues. Now, with a resolve of his own, he pushes through the barriers blocking his soul from grasping the only true motivation that drives the gods.
Revenge is a feeling of power that he decides to bathe in.
Along with Kal'daka, he leaves the castle that had once been called his home in search of LiNeerithras, the drow city in which Azairah was taken to. His history holds little hope for his journey is clouded with dragons, undead orcs, wizards as old as the Underdark is deep, and a particular witch, holding control over Kal'daka's very soul.

Sacrilege - Short Synopsis
Ilham, a wily drow with ideas of conquest clouding of the line he knows splits the impossible with the possible, leads his life as a commoner gone arise. With a blood line that leaks far down into the slums of LiNeerithras, a slim chance at a life bigger than his own, and a straight, clear path to a life of religious blasphemies, Ilham could not have chosen a more drow-like road.
Kal'daka's History - Short Synopsis
Kal'daka, a hard pressed noble child who balances his training with the lust he feels for a rogue Priestess. Her eyes, as deep as sapphires, pull him further away from his family then they will accept. His mother, full of hatred and the faith of her daughters, turns a creature that follows her family upon the woman Kal'daka had begun to call Shebali. With the drow warrior at her side and an infinite amount of magic at her disposal, what chance does a Matron Mother stand? Never before had a sibling battle reached such heights.

Devin Patrick Crosby, sometimes known as Dev, Devinator, DC, or D.C. al fine (born February 28, 1988 in North Babylon, New York) is an American tennis player of mixed Italian and Irish ancestry. He is known for his big serve, powerful strokes, and athleticism. He currently plays at Virginia Wesleyan College in Virginia Beach, Virginia where he earned all ODAC first team honors his freshman year.
Devin moved to Virginia at an early age. He played tennis at Monticello High School and is currently the coach at Key West Club in Charlottesville, where he resides while not in school. Devin is also known for being idolized by Luke Nadkarni (aka Smokestack), the worst on Key West Club's tennis ladder. He is also the cousin of Central Islip rapper Vinnie Da Don, who is popular in Key West as well as New York and is also idolized by Smokestack. The nickname "D.C. al fine" comes from the player on the top of the Key West ladder, Brett Diehl, who says that Devin "plays till the end, then keeps of going", like the Italian musical term that means the same thing.
