Been awhile since I played, but I think you have to talk to the dragon in
the cave near the locked door you mention to get in there.

i've tried that - the dragon disguisses my party as drow and tells me what
to say to the gaurds so they will let me in. the guards don't ask me any
questions i can answer without getting into a fight, so i kill them but now
cant get into the city

Its reload time, killing the guards right outside the main door to the
city is a bad move. Try all the conversation options again, one of
them works but I can't remember the exact one

You have to tell the guards that you are the drow you are impersonating.
You have to use the name. There should be an option for that.

There's one thing you can do. Just do what you can in the Underdark and
leave
the Drow alone.

spoiler..









There is another way out of the Underdark, far to the western edge of the
Underdark.

Maybe just use Shadowkeeper to give yourself a nice weapon or better stats
to make up for the experience you lost.

Or wait for someone that knows how to give you a cheat.

Yeah, but it sounds like the whole party is in the Drow disguise, and they
have no chance of getting the dragon's eggs. I'm not sure if the disguise
*can* be removed without completing that quest, even by killing the dragon.
So when they leave the Underdark, they would probably still look like drow,
which I imagine would engender a very different reception than what a
non-drow party gets (not that the "normal" reception is all that friendly
anyway).

You could try CLAUConsole:CreateCreature("UDDOOR01")

This will recreate the drow you killed. If you talk with him you
*might* be able to get the dialog you need to open the door.

Just go to the entry way, and type the command. Good luck.
