Drizzt's Abilities and Supplies:
- Master Swordsman (fastest warrior to date in the Dungeons and Dragons Universe, able to draw scimitars so fast that they seem to materialize in his hands)
- Master of Stealth (blends into shadows as if he is a shadow himself, when he wants to)
- Globe of Impenetrable Darkness (an innate power of the drow race, it is exactly what it sounds like)
- Faerie Fire Cloak (covers a target with magical fire, it doesn't burn, but it scares the weak minded. Used mainly to mark a target in a crowd)
- Twinkle (an elven-made Scimitar that glows blue and sharpens when the wielder wills it) and Icingdeath (an enchanted scimitar that protects him from heat and extinguishes fire on contact)
- Guenhwyvar (a 600lb panther that is summoned with Drizzt's statuette, a master of stealth and deathly vicious in combat)
- Taulmaril the Heart Seeker (an enchanted bow that allows the user to pinpoint a target's heartbeat, refills arrows once they are used, and turns arrows into lightning bolts)
- Enchanted Anklets (speed his foot speed to match his blinding speed with his swords, using these, he has dodged countless arrows, crossbow bolts, and projectile magic)
- Mithril Armor (Strongest metal in the Dungeons and Dragons universe, very tough to break through)

For the three LotR characters, I'll leave descriptions out, you all should know this stuff well enough.

No.

Who is then?

Not some punk ass Ranger who hasn't even breached level 20 I tell you what. He has a dex of like 20 in 3.5.

I can build a character with better than that starting off if I really felt like it. Elminster is almost as quick at base, and amplifying himself to be quicker would be exceedingly trivial for him, though that could be "cheating".

Nevertheless, DnD is a setting where epic level heroes can do shit like survive orbital re-entry by virtue of their incredible tumbling skills, or fit through a keyhole because you have a broken Escape Artist check.

Drizzt is a pretty formidable swordsman, but he isn't dick compared to the big-hitters in DnD.

Also, Pun-Pun is vastly quicker than Drizzt is, being infinitely fast if he so desires, as well as infinitely strong, durable, intelligent, wise, and sexy.

I'm talking about the book character, he is the fastest swordsman in that Universe.

He is not the fastest swordsman in Forgotten Realms you harlot.

Certainly one of the best though. I'll see if I can find it, but Ed Greenwood did a best swordsmen list. And Drizzet was like fifth and Ed claimed they were all very close to each other in skill.

Forgotten realms is a dungeons and dragons series.

Anyway, onto the actual question, who wins here?

Forgotten realms is a dungeons and dragons series. I am aware of this.

So it's still DnD Universe. But again, who wins?

Yamcha solos

He would if he were here, but he is busy fighting some giant monster

Ed Greenwood

That's not Adamantine.

^True, but very few smiths make adamantine armor, except drow, who enchant it, dwarves make mithril armor that isn't enchanted, also, if a drow wore their armor on the surface, it loses its strength and practically falls apart.

Pun-Pun isn't a canon character roaming the Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms, or Greyhawk, etc. settings. And Pun-Pun isn't infinitely fast because there's no stat or feat that modifies speed in 3.5 from what I recall.

Either way I'd assume we base Drizzt's character on the books and not a sheet of stats, in which case he'd probably win.

Thank you Astner for the actual answer to my question.

nevermdn holy **** am i tired
