r/Drizzt

Hi - new here but I've been a fan of Drizzt for a long time. What's your favorite quote from the books? It can be something Drizzt said, another character said, or something in the Drizzt recollections between Chapters which I usually find quite profound.

Firstly, please PLEASE avoid spoilers as I really wanna continue reading the series!

So the source of my disappointment is when Drizzt kisses Cattie-Brie while she was unconscious in the plane of Tarterus.

Listen, I am a 30 yo woman and I know that back in the 90s such things was "okay". I get it. It was supposed be the first time we get to see Drizzt's romantic feelings for Cattie-Brie or maybe the first time he himself noticed it about him. But damn was it wrong. He's righteous, he's humble, good hearted, everything I admire in a person...I'm so disappointed because it feels so out of character for Drizzt.

Also, maybe I'll be alone in it here but, isn't it strange that Drizzt, an elf who has lived for so long has fallen for a girl he has met only a few years ago as a child? The reading led me to believe he saw her as a little sister. Wulfgar's and Cattie's romantic feelings for each other, in the other hand, were clearly written all along.

But anyway, putting my nitpicking aside, even if he did start seeing her as a grown woman (which she absolutely is), I don't think he would let himself cross the obvious romantic relationship between her and Wulfgar that has already been established. Okay, so he kissed her on accident, that's true. But until the end of the book he doesn't address what he did, not even to himself, alone. He's always been able to sort his feelings out but he didn't this time, which is weird, almost letting me think he does not care or doesn't think he did anything wrong. He doesn't feel guilty or ashamed. Why? Is it because the author was too "rushed" to finish the book? Does this have any sort of continuation on the next books?

Another point that got me disappointed was that Drizzt and Alustriel from Silverymoon did not romance each other. It was a perfect setting for it to happen. Both had the same honorable sense of justice, good intentions, both were amazing characters and powerful as well. I don't get it. It would have been awesome.

I WANT to continue liking Drizzt and the series. I WANT to be convinced. Maybe I'm being too strict on my own sense of honor and the series is just not for me.

Hi everyone! Obviously, besides reading the books, many of us also enjoy playing video games. And I’m sure I’m not the only one who often finds myself building a character around our beloved drow and trying to recreate that feeling in a game.

I’ve come across quite a few awesome power fantasies over the years where you can get a taste of that experience, but **Mortal Shell 2 with the Dual wield Axetana ( two katanas ) ** is honestly one of the best I’ve experienced in years!

The dark atmosphere, the movement, the combat, the shell everything just fits together perfectly. It really captures that feeling of playing as a deadly drow warrior.highly recommend giving it a try and picking it up if you’re looking for that kind of experience! Im really having funwith this one!

You even can go a bit summoner build too! Not a panther but…

Man....I had heard it was rough but I found a cheap copy and thought what the hell. The controls are pretty clunky but I'm gonna stick through and see it through.

The aesthetic choices are what really got me laughing though --

The crystal shard is blue?!?!
The tower it erects is essentially Icecrown from WoW/Sauron's tower from LotR?!?!
Gwen is prismatic/translucent?!?!?!
Wulfgar has the biker viking undercut?!?!?!
Catti-Brie has some kind of weird goggle headband thing?!?!?!

STILL, THOUGH -- it's cool to see some locations in Icewind Dale in video game form. If I can figure out how to make the camera not feel unresponsive and slow I still feel like it will be a decent time!

Edit: Oh yeah! Drizzt's green cloak is also called a piwafwi haha

We know the quality of the offical art has a track record of being full of mistakes from Drizzt as a ugly old pale man in the original Dark Elf trilogy covers to Artemis Entreri depicted as white still to this day.

But where does Drizzt wearing that specific segmented leather armor with the loin cloth piece come from? It is in multiple official artworks so it's definitely included in some WotC design doc.

But in the books Drizzt is frequently mentioned to wear a mithril chainmail shirt with no other descriptions of body armor.

So why the leather armor instead of chainmail?

Jarlaxle saved him during the fall of House Oblodra, but was he already with Bregan D'aerthe before that ?

Heyy guys ,

I hope i can explain myself goof enough.

Iam in the process of rebinding my legends of drizzt books into hatd covers and i desperatly need the full art bookcovers without the title, autors name etc can someone help me and tell me were to look for ?

Thank you in advance and sorry if it is the wrong subreddit i didnt find any better

1st 2 books was easily one of the hardest reads but the last 2 easily one of the best reads. Can't believe I skipped right past it for what seems like a decade.

Effron is seriously underrated and Dahlia might have more hate than justified.

Wonder what other books I might've overlooked. I skipped most of the Hunter's Blade Trilogy and Transitions.

(Minor Spoiler)

After the last threshold. I honestly wouldn't mind if the story continued on with the new group. There are just certain things that make it more interesting than the companions of the hall for me.

But I understand the transition back to the companions and it was quite a brilliant move by RA not gonna lie.

Companions series is hard to top.
