In answer to Katherine: Drizzt Do'Urden is a legendary figure in the Forgotten Realms setting in which BG takes place. He's a drow elf, i.e., an elf from the subterranean world of the Underdark, a vast network of caverns, caves and tunnels. The drow worship the evil spider goddess LLoth and have what amounts to a Lawful Evil society. The drow are despised on the surface. In the lore of the Forgotten Realms, Drizzt is a rarity: a drow who has rejected the drow's evil ways and has committed himself to a life guided by good principles. Anyway, he is a mighty warrior and a legend in Faerun, the land where BG takes place. (Oh--and his two enchanted scrimitars are +3 and +5.)
