3 | * After escaping from yet another Underdarkian peril, there is a paragraph which starts, “They ran through the winding tunnels blindly, hoping that no monsters would rear up suddenly before them.” The sheer blandness of the statement, coupled with the no-fuckin'-duh sentiment-- 'hoping that no monsters would rear up suddenly before them' could be appended to nearly EVERY sentence in ANY book-- makes this line unintentionally hilarious. And that's even before getting into the Fourth Wall Painting wink-and-a-nod to Random Encounters aspect. |
4 | * Drizzt telling Guenhwyvar to lie down on sleeping Belwar in order to annoy him. It works several times. |
5 | * Bruenor's frequent musings about how Roddy [=McGristle's=] dog would taste. And his eventual regret when he eats its leg. |
6 | * Early in ''Homeland'', a fleeing Alton [=DeVir=] charges headlong into a MagicMirror. |
7 | -->Perhaps it was a teleportation door to another section of the city, perhaps a simple door to a room beyond. Or perhaps, Alton dared to imagine in those few desperate seconds, this was some interplanar gate that would bring him into a strange and unknown plane of existence!\ |
8 | He felt the tingling excitement of adventure pulling him on as he neared the wondrous thing—then he felt only the impact, the shattering glass, and the unyielding stone wall behind it.\ |
9 | Perhaps it was just a mirror. |
10 | ** And then the guy trying to kill him is ''pissed'' that his mirror's broken - to the point he claims that's ''why'' he's trying to kill Alton. (Mirrors aren't easy to come by in a naturally pitch-black environment.) |
11 | * In ''Sojourn'', Drizzt pretends to be a very melodramatic black dragon [[ForcedTransformation trapped in the form of a drow]], who's starting to develop [[TheMindIsThePlaythingOfTheBody an unnatural fondness for spiders]]. This manages to gross out the red dragon he's talking to, and then Drizzt starts worrying about what will happen if the dragon develops enough sympathy to turn him "back." |
