* IllGirl: In her last appearance [[spoiler:during her initial incarnation]], she is struck down at the beginning of the book by a wild magic surge during the [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt Spellplague]].

* NiceHat: A particularly impressive bush hat to be precise.

* NiceHat: Has a helmet with deer antlers on it.

* NiceHat: Wears one to cover her shaved head and hide her Thayan allegiances.

* NiceHat: Roughly described as a sombrero with a giant peacock feather. [[CrazyPrepared Both the hat and the feather are magical]].

* RapunzelHair: His beard is very long, dyed green, and he wears it by parting it into two branches and wearing one branch over each ear, so it merges with his long shoulders.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: His hair is actually dyed green.

* BaldOfAwesome: He's bald as a cueball under his helmet...and his head is covered in a layer of greasy film, as Catti-brie learned the hard way.

* BaldOfEvil: Mostly, anyway; has a single bit of hair tied back in a long [[EvilRedhead red and black]] braid. Later becomes BaldOfAwesome.

* BaldOfAwesome: Notably, Jarlaxle's shaved head is actually significant; hairstyle indicates role and station in drow society. By shaving his head, Jarlaxle removes himself from this system.

* OnlyTheChosenMayWield: The only thing that rivals its bloodlust is its desire to be wielded by a great warrior. It’s content to be wielded by someone of Catti-Brie’s skill, but it longs for someone like Drizzt to keep and use it. If it doesn’t deem its current wielder worthy, it will try to get them killed, hoping that whoever picks it up next is more suitable than the last.

* TokenEvilTeammate: Khazid’hea to Catti-Brie, Khazid’hea to the companions, Khazid’hea to...pretty much anyone who doesn’t have a similar mind/goal as it. And it’s ''always'' hungry for blood & death.

* MulticoloredHair: Black with purple streaks.

* ThoseTwoBadGuys: With Entreri, then later with Kimmuriel.

* ThoseTwoBadGuys: With Rai-guy, later Jarlaxle.

* NotSoDifferent: To Entreri who represents what Drizzt could have become. When he falls into his [[BerserkMode hunter mode]], he's afraid of turning into Entreri.

* NotSoDifferent: To Artemis Entrei believe it or not. Jarlaxe notices that both men are similar in personality and cynical worldview and that's why he likes them both. Zak resembles Entrei during his CharacterDevelopment.

* TryToFitThatOnABusinessCard: Drizzt Do'Urden of D'aermon Na'shez'baernon, Ninth House of Menzoberranzan.

* MasterSwordsman: He was supposed to replace Zaknafein as House Do'Urden's weaponsmaster before he fled from Menzoberranzan. In later books, many drow warriors and even the weaponsmasters of rival households, to their ultimate doom, have sought the chance to fight "Zaknafein's equal".

* EnemyMine: Teams up with Drizzt in an early appearance, and a few subsequent ones as well.

* BottomlessMagazines: The magical bow Taumaril that she takes for her own in Mithral Hall has this as an extremely useful secondary enchantment, letting her chew through hordes of enemies with a quiver that apparently only contains twenty arrows.

* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Explored in depth. Drizzt was definitely worried about the idea of outliving his friends for his first few decades on the surface until he struck up a friendship with Innovindil, a surface elf. She advised him to live a series of shorter, segmented lifetimes, taking each as they come, rather than dwelling on the looming centuries. Her advice came into play after the events of ''Gauntlgrym'', when Bruenor, the last of his original friends, died in battle. Drizzt mourned his loss, then picked himself up and began traveling with Dahlia Sin'felle.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: He is polite and trusting almost to a fault (even more so in the earlier books), but if you mess with the people he cares about he ''will'' end you.

* ReturnToHand: The signature ability of his warhammer, Aegis-fang, and part of what makes it a [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks perfect throwing weapon]].
