I think I uploaded the wrong .bic file for this, which is why he did not have the weapons I stated in his inventory. Unfortunatly I no longer have a good file with the gear I created as I had to uninstall/reinstall the game to fix some patching issues. I would honestly love to be able to update/correct this, and If I find the time perhaps I will do just that, but I will need to remake him from scratch. I'm not sure if I stated this befor but This character is "my view" of how I see Drizzt. I see him primarily as the Ranger type due mostly to his personality in the books. I purposefully left him at level 2 so that he would still have the ranger duel weild feats. This way players who downloaded the file would still have plenty of leveling room to make him to his offical stats according to D&D rules if they choose to do so.
As much as I hate when other people do this, I'm not reading all of the comments. What I'm going to do is list what I already saw as wrong without even opening the file, and I may repeat others' comments.
First, Twinkle is a +2 defender with the special addition that it twinkles when enemies are near. I.E., it's a simple +2 enhancement and +2 bonus to AC (AC deflection modifier). Icingdeath, on the other hand, was correct.
Drizzt is DEX based. He wears bracers of blinding speed on his legs and is obsessed with agility. His fighting style is based entirely on agility and intuition (high wisdom?). Bracers of blinding speed are probably best honestly translated as permahaste, but for balance, +4 to dex sounds about right.
He now wears a spider silk shirt. 5/- damage resistance chain shirt sounds about right.
As far as his class, it's impossible to fit the story perfectly in translation. He dual-wields scimitars and was taught by a weapon master. He seems to have been a fighter, high dex, two-weapon fighting, blind fighting, weapon finesse, then ranger, which wastes two weapon style since he would already have it, but that's what fits into 3.5ed...
You should know that you opened a Pandora's Box with this...
btw, a friend of mine wanted to make a drizzt char, for normal campaign, so i made him with the official stats. but he has much higher stats than is possible to make, so you must cheat, and add stats, or make him as a module char, from toolset.
eeh, right...drizzt does not have 20 str, like the stat card says, im quite sure...or does wulfgar have 30+? drizzt is nowhere near as strong as wulfgar, which has 20-22str as far as i know...not sure.
He doesn't have what you listen. Twinkle or Icingdeath, all he had on him when I loaded him was some unidentifed things (that I identifed into +1 things), and a mithril greatsword. He did in fact have the right chainmail.
I put the bic in my localvault. Has anyone gotten the right weapons?
Well the real issue is that these legendary characters of forgotten realms ect. has been posted the last 4 years, and everyone appearently has different opinions on how they should look, be "trained" and what equipment they must have.
Wich when all comes to all, makes it so darn pointless to post fiction characters -besides there isn't really any work put into characters

I wasnt really going for the "official" character build. I think of him as just a ranger so thats how I started him out. He's only lvl 2 so there are plenty of levels left for anyone who wants to build him up according to his offical stats.
Drizzt Do'Urden started as a Fighter class. He did not learn his ranger abilities till after leaving the Underdark. If you are trying to follow his actual character. _________________________ The Dirty Dwarf
