But again, you forget that DROW eventually LOSE their MR on the surface. Vicona does not follow propper Ad&d rules.
Since you spend most time on the surface, your DROW MR would vanish. Anyhow, I think it is pointless to discuss who's the better character when both are clearly made partly with an editor. I could easily make a character with 25 in each stat, the best equipment, but where is the fun then? |

I never said anything about the best equipment. Besides, my character is evil, making the game a little more complicated. The only thing I use Shadowkeeper for in making the Drow is for the appearance, saves, and MR. I think the thing with Viconia is the same for Drizzt. He gets his powers from a god right? Well Viconia worships Shar, so..

given that drow are elves, how did you manage a 19 CON since elves get a -1 penalty? there's only one tome that increases CON and an elf can't legitimately start with higher than 17.
fyi, there were rarely any heroes, fictional or historical, who were the strongest, fastest, or whatever superlative you want to add. they were heroes usually because of their ingenuity and courage. oh, and friends. that character killed drizzt? big farkin deal. with stats and equipment from the gods, he sure should have been able to. that's like praising someone 7' tall because they can dunk a basketball. redundancy has reached new heights. you seem really keen on trying to impress us with stats and how much ass he kicks. personally, i'd love to read your biography of this guy and how you justify yet another drow wandering the surface like it's an every day thing. drizzt's history is well developed. viconia was hunted continuously. please tell. i'm sure it will be consistent and startlingly original just like the character. |

For one, he needs those high stats because, well he is trying to kill one of the greatest legends in Forgotten Realms. Where was it Drizzt used to call home? Menzoberranzan? Let us say that Draekhar was a shadow of Drizzt before he became an exile of his people. Basically, he is an assassin from Menzoberranzan, that followed the ways of Drizzt (that is why he has superior fighting skills), and was sent out to find and kill Drizzt. Once I have him completed, then I will work more on the background.

u...huh. your character, no matter how tough he may seem in bg1, is no match for most of our characters here. im wagering that my fighter/mage would take him sooo easily, even though he has obviously hacked stats (19 CON is impossible for elves in bg1, and im not even mentioning what your gonna do to him in bg2...). drow lose most of their special abilities on the surface, that includes the mag resist. im not sure if they just worship a god that they get to keep that, but then again, i dont know all the rules about stuff like that. if your gonna make a god character, fine, so did i at one time, but please dont use the excuse 'hes the son of a god' cuz hes still part mortal, or 'hes taking one one of the greatest legends in FR history!' cuz even tho he may be, any character in bg2 can take him out when they get to him more than likely, so thats hardly an excuse as well.

To end the endless complaints, I will make the stats to this:
STR: 19 DEX: 20 CON: 18 INT: 16 WIS: 17 CHA: 8 If I remember correctly, this is what he started with: STR: 18/57 DEX: 19 CON: 17 INT: 15 WIS: 15 CHA: 8 So that is a total of: STR: +1 DEX: +1 CON: +1 INT: +1 WIS: +2 CHA: +0 Equal to the total amount of Tomes in the game. Satisified? |
