Is it true that if you name your character Drizzt, the NPC Drizzt will attack you on sight? Or is that just part of the BG lore?

Offtopic: This is awful nitpicking but didn't Drizzt learn Levitation and Faerie Fire under the tutelage by her sister? It has been a while since I read the Dark Elf -trilogy so I might as well recall falsely. I don't even remember the sister's name. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think the whole idea of an "innate ability" is somewhat weird. Maybe a certain race can do things easier than others, but it's not possible to know things without learning them beforehand.

Think of the Innate ability as potential.
You still have to learn how to control it.
