Regis (Forgotten Realms)Regis the halfling from the Forgotten Realms is a major character in R. A. Salvatore's series of novels detailing the adventures of the drow ranger Drizzt Do'Urden. He is the least martially capable of the Heroes of Icewind Dale (a forgivable fact when one considers that the others are Drizzt himself, the mighty barbarian Wulfgar, the dwarven king in exile Bruenor Battlehammer, and a gifted archer named Cattie-Brie). He mainly plays his part by using a magical ruby pendant to influence the minds of others. He obtained this pendant by stealing it from Pasha Pook, head of the thieves' guild in Calimshan. Regis had once been one of the finest thieves in the guild, until he set his eyes on the forbidden fruit that was the Pasha's powerful pendant. After stealing it, he fled north to the farthest reaches of Faern, beyond the Spine of the World mountains to Icewind Dale, where he befriended Drizzt and Bruenor. In Streams of Silver, the second book of the Icewind Dale Trilogy, Regis accompanies his friends on the quest to reclaim Mithral Hall, Bruenor's lost homeland. Unknown to them is his reason: Artemis Entreri, Pook's finest assassin is on his tail. He is eventually captured by Entreri, and almost pays the ultimate price for his crimes, but is saved by his friends at the last minute, after they follow the assassin to the distant south.
