Drizzt DoUrden going from kind of an asshole chuuni that guy who never the less had some good ideas on how not to be a murderdick to everyone in the original Crystal Shard book into mary sue protag in the following
Wolfgar was the protag. Wolfgar was always meant to be the Protag. If Salvatore had followed formula right, Drizzt would have died in book 2.

Wulfgar was boring as shit and the most interesting thing that happened to him was getting raped by succubi and having his rape babies murdered. I'll take the chunni edgy chaotic good elf any day. Everything was passable until he got angsty over > muh I'll outlive the woman I love even though she'll be an old maid by the time I get over it.

I've actually met Bob Salvatore, and talking to him - plus the introduction to a collected edition of the Dark Elf trilogy that I have - says that while Wulfgar was originally going to be the protagonist, Salvatore decided to make Drizzt the protagonist as soon as he finished the very first scene in Crystal Shard with Drizzt in it, where he fights a yeti on the tundra and meets up with Bruenor.
