                      | The character of Drizzt created a cliché that has been driven into the ground, not to mention overexposing the Drow to the point of ridiculousness. 
 This really saddens me because I am a Drow fan. My longest played and most loved character was a neutral evil Drow rogue. Yes, he was power-hungry and selfish at his core, but he could also love, be a true friend, and even honorable. I never forgot that he was, above all things, a Drow.
 
 I guess I just like my Drow mysterious and evil :/

 I would tend to agree with you on the Drow being overdone.  It has become a bit of a munchkin race.  However, the Character of Drizzt, started about 1986 was an innovative and well thought out character.

                      | Yes, I suppose I do not blame the character of Drizzt (or Bob Salvatore for that matter) for the mess that has become of the drow. Chalk that one up to marketing  |
