The recently released SF movie "Alien vs. Predator" got me to thinking what the fantasy equivalent would be. Maybe "Conan vs. Drizzt"?

Who would win such a match? Granted, Drizzt has two swords and various helpful magic spells, while on the other hand Conan is pure muscle on top of pure muscle and, if Howard's stories are anything to go by, is virtually invincible. (And for the sake of simplicity, let's leave Guenhwyvar out of this...)

Who has the superior skills, or are they equal? Would the contest be a stalemate? Would one win simply through sheer luck? Place your bets!

EDIT: This is of course a moot topic, since two "good guys" would probably either work together or leave each other alone.

Drizzt all the way. The inhuman (joke! joke!) speed of his sabers, his fighting skills, magical abilities, dexterity (hey, he's a drow!), and meh, I don't see how Conan - no matter how POWARFUL he ever is could keep on living his arms cut off, his legs full of wounds, and a saber through his chest. And that is all. ^_^

I hate Drizzt Fanboys (And girls) With a passion. They seem to pop up everywhere and want to mimic there imaginary hero in roleplay, or just use the name for a pseudonym. That and the fact that ive never read whatever book Drizzt stars in, Im voting for Conan.

Besides, the movies kicked so much ass i can't help but watch on the rare occurances they show them on TV.

Conan would win, and it wouldn't even be much of a contest.

Ooooooooh and/or AUGHBLAUGHBAUGGHHAUUGHDUGHH. :D It's too bad this couldn't be a poll.

As for the topic, this is one of those topic like "What if Batman and Captain America fought." So I'm not going to place a bet, mostly because I don't know the two personalities enough yet to make a valid argument. ;)

I am basically unfamiliar with either Conan or Drizzt, so I'll pass.

If you have nothing to say, don't say anything. Believe it or not, spam is still spam when its oblique mockery by image.

—Alorael, who gives 7:5 odds for Drizzt. The number of drooling fans clinging to him may impede his ability to fight somewhat, but in the end the howling hordes are more likely to tear apart Conan.

Have you ever noticed how death and murder follow Conan and his friends around? Just his being there would be more than enough to make the foe cower, and...um...oh, the other Conan. =^.^=

Well, it depends. Are they fighting in the dark? If so, I'd say the drow (Drizzt) wins, unless Conan has some power that I'm not aware of. I've never read any of their stories or watched the Conan movies. Sorry.

If they were fighting on open ground or a storm-wracked tower, on the other hand, then I think that Conan could win through sheer brute force. I'm not saying that either of them could conceivably kill the other without substantial preparation or pure luck, but they could at least force a temporary retreat. =^.^=

Sorry for being off-topic, but I'm curious again. Who on earth is Conan and Drizzt (as I'm now fairly sure you aren't reffering to Mr. Risberg)? I don't watch very many movies at all, so I'm kind of behind on all this again...

If you don't know, then why even bother posting in this topic?

Drizzt is some sort of hero Drow in books and other such merchandice made by Wizards of the Coast(?). Conan is THE Barbarian.

I don't know much about Drizzt, but I say Conan all the way, im collecting conan albums too, so...
And they say that even though Conan is a bull in a mans form, he is agile like a cat.

I'd have to go with Drizzt. He does have TWO swords after all :P

Conan O'Brien vs. Drizz ....someone make me a web movie. As for Rincewind vs. Gandalf I would have to side with Rincewind, that is one lucky wizard.

Drizzt would spurt Conan up like an old concert shirt. He's one bad mother. (I'd prefer to see Drizzt v. Elminster, frankly.)

On a tangential note, I'm totally rooting for Predator. Aliens suck.
