as said above, he IS an elf. 13 is above average strenght for elves and humans, i believe. i dont really see any reason to believe that he would have higher strenght(if youve read his books), since his fighting style is slicing and poking with his scimitars, which doesnt require too much strenght(only a heck of a lot of skill).

I've just read the Silent Blade and I like it. [img]graemlins/elf.gif[/img]

I have the Silent Blade in .doc format, I could send it to you to read. But you would have to promise that you will buy the book as soon as you can. Salvatore deserves that.

I find Liriel Baenre much more fascinating than Drizzt. Fyodor of Rashemen has got to be one of my all-time favorite characters.

Ah, I apologize, I haven't read any of the books.

BTW, where can you get the books? I havn't read any of them. Can you just buy them online, or in stores too?

Edit: Oh yeah, and are the games' plot based on that of the books?

I don't know what to place in the search since I dunno what the books are called. What are the names of the books?
