Pretty much anyone else (most likely those that came after) are not going to recognize them.I was poking fun at myself for being old. Not putting anyone down for when they were born or suggesting that any of those other name/characters should be more popular than Drizz't (though, since you bring it up, certainly could have been had the decades of churning out books been about them instead).That said, I have always thought that the D&D cartoon, toyline, and wider brand would have been significantly helped had the cartoon been based on the characters (good and bad) that were the action figures (several can be found in the Quest for the Heartstone module, XL1) and the other characters in the merchandise of the day (coloring books, colorforms, etc...) actually going on adventures, instead of those 6 whiny fish-out-of-water kids from a different world...But wutchagunnado? It was the '80s.</blockquote>
