okay, so I realize this probably isn’t even a thing on Tumblr and if it is then it’s probably just in groups. but whatever! maybe a multi will come along one day thinking, “gosh, i’d love to write a forgotten realms muse but who? well, look no further friends. below, you will find a summary of the best friends a drow could ask for. they are all super special in their own way.
BELWAR DISSENGULP.
known as a svirfneblin, or a deep gnome, Belwar is Drizzt’s first honest friend. his life was saved by Drizzt when the gnomes were found by a drow party and all were slain but Belwar. thanks to Driztt, he lost his hands instead of his life and he never let that stop him. fitted with a hammer and a pickaxe where his hands had been, the gnome can cast a few spells and the new ‘hands’ make quite a formidable weapon to say the least. he doesn’t follow Drizzt to the surface, but he was the first to show Drizzt genuine friendship in the Underdark. something the drow desperately needed.
BRUENOR BATTLEHAMMER.
what’s better than a stereotypical rough and gruff dwarf? one with a secret heart of gold that he would sooner die than confess to. but it’s true! beneath that thick dwarven skull is a deeply caring heart and it’s proven by his loyalty to Drizzt and his ability to see past the drow’s racial reputation to be his friend. he pretty much has two adopted kids in the series and Drizzt and Bruenor have saved each others’ lives so many times that it’s a wonder either of them survived without each other.
CATTIE-BRI BATTLEHAMMER.
an auburn-haired human girl raised by a rock hard stubborn dwarf. so you know she’s got fire. her mother died giving birth to her and her father, who had moved them to Ten Towns, was killed in a goblin attack when she was still extremely young. the attack was turned away by a band of dwarves, and I’m sure you can guess who one of them was. the young girl was found by Bruenor who decided to adopt the orphan. she’s the first one in Ten Towns to trust Drizzt and eventually becomes his wife after the author drags it on for a month of Sundays. I will go down with this ship.
MONTOLIO DEBROUCHEE
a highly skilled Ranger of Mielikki, Montolio is the one who teaches Drizzt about the surface world-- it’s plants, animals, cultures, how to survive the cold weather, and even teaches him new fighting skills. all the while, he’s blind. yep, blind but completely capable. he and Drizzt fight off an attack together and the old man can hold his own just fine despite his disability. he lives in a Grove that becomes eerily abandoned after his death. he can sense the good in Drizzt and protects him.
WULFGAR
a close friend of Drizzt’s, Wulfgar was a teenager when his barbarian tribe raided Ten-Towns. he was�� captured and became an indentured servant to Bruenor where he spent five years at the dwarf’s forges and learned the craft well. he also becomes close friends with Cattie-bri and the two share romantic instances various times within the series so a ship between those two is entirely possible. after his service to Bruenor is over, the dwarf sends him to learn to fight from Drizzt. and so the two begin as teacher and student and eventually become good friends along the way.
ZAKNAFEIN DO’URDEN
this muse is a little limited, but I would give my soul to whoever would write him with me. he is Drizzt’s father, as well as the father of one of Drizzt’s sisters. it is hinted that his good nature is somehow passed to his children, as Drizzt becomes famed for turning on his dark culture and it is hinted that were it not for the strict, yet privileged, lifestyle of female Drow that his full-sister could also have turned on her culture had she been so inclined. but more about him. he was the chief warrior of House Do’Urden and for that reason ( and his skill in bed && love for killing clerics of Llolth ) did Matron Malice keep him around despite his blasphemous behaviour. he teaches Drizzt to fight and is the reason Drizzt finds the strength to turn his back on the Underdark for good and venture to the surface. someone please love him with me, I'd give you plots and threads galore.
