We're reasonably sure he didn't cause 4e.In one tale, he uses a sack of flour to drown Crenshinibon, a world-threatening sentient crystal in another he willingly takes blows from the now-grown hateful elf girl he once saved from death, who thought he was going to kill her. Uses chaotic things like lies, deceit and lawful things like principles and plain self-sacrifice to ensure his friends' safety, and good is preserved without resorting to Mary Sue killings like Kaldor Draigo did. Though Chaotic Good, he isn't Chaotic Stupid.And to his credit, he gets shit done better than them. Drizzt isn't a fan of his clones either.Has a badass black panther animal companion.Indeed, he slaughtered his way across his Stupid Evil members to his well-earned freedom. Because he's a male drow that doesn't get slapped for not GB2Kitchen.His name sounds exactly like the Russian word for "diarrhea" (was even renamed into Dzzirt in the official Russian translation, go figure).I think Drizzt is a pretty cool gal, seh kills demons and doesn't afraid of anything.He occasionally hangs out with dorfs, which basically means he cannot completely suck.Therefore we can safely conclude that Drizzt is hot. He has lavender eyes, making him popular among the ladies.To his credit however, even Drizzt himself is facepalming at the above line.Drizzt is a unique and beautiful snowflake (well, he used to be unique).Ok, so why is this son of a bitch so popular? 1 Ok, so why is this son of a bitch so popular?.Then the writing started and, whattaya know? He just had too much charisma to not end up becoming the main character. No matter what your verdict, keep in mind he is an elf, and thus automatically 5 billion times less manly than even the dreaded Space Communists.ĭoubly fun fact: He was planned as a SECONDARY character, a sidekick in support of a human Barbarian called Wulfgar, in a crusty old book named The Crystal Shard. It's the cargo cult-grade fanboyism that made the fucker be hated by the rest of the world's Neckbeards. Salvatore had given him a thoroughly well-planned plotline to at least justify to kill the Balor, such as an extremely powerful frost weapon scores of pages and chapters ago, so under such circumstances killing a Balor with a well-planned ambush as a level 16 ranger can be tolerated to a degree, and character-wise, Drizzt is a pretty mellow, morally consistent, and reasonable individual without going into needless heroism and Kaldor Draigo level of challenges.

However, keep in mind that Drizzt's author Mr. Given past experience by players being inspired by stupid shit, there is every reason to take a lot of problems with the guy with a grain of salt. Other point out that, all copycats aside, Drizzt has stupid amounts of plot armor in the books and is able to carve his way through armies and Epic-level encounters such as Balors without sweating despite only being lvl16 pure-class ranger. Some bet on the latter, having moved into "sick of people who are sick of the original subject matter". He is also commonly described as a Mary Sue, although whether this is really a property of the character himself or if he's simply tainted by association with the thousands of knock-off characters he spawned is open to debate. While Drizzt really isn't a terrible character in and of himself (especially in light of shit like Pinelight), the sheer volume of Drizzt-clones he's spawned are capable of inducing burning fury in even the most mild and even-tempered of dudes.

He is well known - and well-hated - on /tg/ for being the origin of the "Good Drow Ranger Fighting To Prove Him/Herself Worthy Despite The Sins Of His/Her Kin While Dual-Wielding Scimitars" stereotype used as a template to create characters by hundreds upon thousands of pathetically unoriginal idiots the world over.

Take things with a grain of salt and a peck of Troll.ĭrizzt Do'Urden is the Drow Elf Drow protagonist of several of R.A. This article or section contains opinions shared by all and/or vast quantities of Derp. Expect Rage, Butthurt and accusations of Mary Sue being flung around in an endless Skub debate. This article or section involves Plot Armor so asinine, that its sheer bullshittery warps and breaks the very fabric of the setting's universe.
