[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5374282, member: 18701"] I think you give too much credit to players who play a good aligned Drow Ranger wielding 2 scimitars. The guys you've seen playing a Drizzt clone must be superb roleplayers. :lol: I really doubt all these players are roleplaying him with the same [I]personality[/I] traits as Drizzt because, well, they are probably roleplaying him the same way they'd roleplay any other ranger character. And if the DM is on top of his game and likes to throw good Drow out of town, the player probably will play the PC no different than he'd play any other "shunned" character. If that isn't true (and I probably am wrong, seeing as how you actually took the time to figure out a way to tell me I'm wrong on all 10 of my examples), and it's more than just the PCs fighting style & race, then I assume I can post up stats for a Good aligned Drow 2-handed fighting Ranger and nobody will accuse it of being a Drow clone? Cause I mean, it's about how I roleplay him also, right? They don't know that I plan to roleplay him as a foul mouthed womanizing ladies man with a gambling problem. So why on earth would they accuse me of playing a Drizzt clone? Obviously I'm not. ;) People keep nit-picking my 10 examples that really aren't all that serious to begin with (I spent what, 10 minutes typing that up with no real thought behind it). I understand the need for gamers to tell each other they are wrong all the time (it happens every day here). But you guys don't need to bring up all this "Drizzt has more traits than your examples" hooplah if you simply want to tell me I'm wrong. First, Drizzt's personality traits have zero to do with people calling a guys PC a Drizzt clone. And second, most likely I'm wrong anyway. It's not a big accomplishment to [I]prove[/I] me wrong. :uhoh: [/QUOTE]
