The Drow was just the right OP combo for some or the best they could come up with. And, you are right. I think it was a 90s to late 00s thing. It was like unlocking a hidden character gen choice you had to read splats to know about and you used a RA Salvatore shaped trojan horse to sneak in your madness and troll poor DMs I gather from stories here. I never experienced it. Nor did I ever really do an underdark heavy campaign, either.Oddly, I heard a few, outside those with Planescape experience, hinting the same with Tiefling Warlocks since Tiefling at one time was not an "accepted" choice back in the days right before 4e. But, tiefling did not really have the press of Drizzt clones and the legions of would be "misunderstood devil" types never materialized in my neck of the woods. That said, Drizzt could not have been the worst thing to become a stigma. Think if you had folks begging to be a werewolf or vampire due to Twilight and such. But, I think we were spared because DnD never had the social system of something like White Wolf stuff that was going into decline by then and Twilight teenie bobbers were more into writing bad erotic fan fiction than rolling dice and drinking soda with the crew.</blockquote>
