    I really wish I understood this one. Anybody to explain the funny of the joke?

      In Pathfinder 2.5E (aka D&D 3.9375E), drow never existed and were made up by a gaslighting Pathfinder.

        you should just use actual names of the games, there are so many layers of jokes here they get in each other’s way

      I think the joke is that their skin tone gets lighter each edition, and eventually it will become a literal light.

        They shouldn’t have included the 2nd picture then. It’s the lightest of all of them.

          Instead of spewing a trite cliche, why don’t you contribute by explaining it? I don’t get it either.

            Because someone else already explained it, leaving me free to comment on the unhelpful grumpiness of the sourpuss up there.

              I must’ve missed the explanation. Is it really just that the skin color in the art changes in each edition? I agree with the grump.

                Well they were originally known as Dark Elves, so them getting gradually lighter is somewhat ironic but to each their own, I guess 🤷
