Like my previous thread, so for equipment, scenario, and descriptions please refer to that one. This time around, since there was an overwhelming support of Eragon just due to the 12 death words, I have decided to make this thread with all the same rules, except no words of death are allowed.

Who wins and why?

Eragon still takes a majority. Similar speed, probably greater strength(unless Drizzt has some strength feats I don't know about), and Eragon without the death words still has access to a vast majority of magic that's for all intents and purposes as endless as his imagination. And since he has the Eldunari, there's pretty much nothing he can't do.

Gigantic wave of flame. Cut off Drizzt's air supply. Invert gravity. Make Drizzt blind like he did the Lethrblaka.

Etc, etc...

Did Eragon blind the Lethrblaka? I thought he just summoned some light to damage their sight.

No. He actually modified the way they're eyes worked so they didn't capture light like a lens. He made it so the eyes were a perfect mirror or something like that and the light bounced back in on itself making it impossible to see.

Wow, I completely forgot that detail (seriously).

I still have to say, with the lack of death words in this, Eragon must get more creative in his spells to kill immediately. While he could think of the spells quickly, he would have to say them as well, since he rarely tried casting spells without verbalizing his intentions. The time it takes to create those spells and then cast it could be enough for Drizzt to charge and distrupt his spellcasting.

Also, all of Eragon's fire spells are really ineffective, since Drizzt has Icingdeath, which extiguishes fires on contact and it protects him from heat.
