Magnus, then we see another example of Nival's idiocy. They contradict themselves. Magnus, I hope you've read Salvatore??? I tried reading it a bit. So, if the dark elves in Heroes are drow, then I am Peter Blood :).
Regarding the Faceless – I must say that yes, Ursula K. Le Guin came up with this idea first, but someone didn't present it quite right. The Faceless, also known as Shadows, are the dark side of every person's soul. Which, if we follow Le Guin's version, gains strength only if a person is afraid of their own Shadow...
So, the connection, Sylv, does exist... it's roughly the same as the connection between Hjedvard and Middle-earth: similar, but changed. The Faceless don't care about demons or angels... they are darkness, not Evil, but Darkness.
(All of the above is my IMHO)
Well, congratulations, you are now Peter Blood. :) But let's get back to the topic of our conversation; I still believe that there is no need to create a race of Faceless. They are divine entities, and practically of the same class; they cannot be divided into a hierarchy, as can be done with angels. But a race of angels cannot be created; it is something divine, because there cannot be an angel at level 1, who can be killed by any gremlin
