| Hi, Galuf, thanks for your suggestions. I will try them. And Ed Greenwood is the creator of the Forgotten Realms? I will definitely check out his work.
To Aegis: I said the drows in Salvator's book had no pride, not in terms of what they think about their superiority, but in terms of what they consider themselves as warriors. In Salvator's books drows considered themselves as superior, cunny, dexterous assasants, but they don't have the fighting spirit as seen in Baldur's Gate II. In the game they enjoy fighting, and superiority is determined from the outcome of the fight. In Salvator's book they enjoy bullying, and superiority is determined much more by the favor of Lloth instead of their real prowess. THAT, is what I meant. As for Salvator's description of mind flayers, all I read was "pfff, pff, pff" and the flayers' enemies were stunned. Nothing really more exciting than that. |
