Portal:Dungeons & Dragons/Selected rulebook/4

Dragons of Despair is the start of the first major story arc in the Dragonlance series of Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game modules, a ready-to-play adventure for use by Dungeon Masters in the game. It is the first in a series of 16 Dragonlance adventures published by TSR between 1984 and 1988. This series provides a game version of the original Dragonlance storyline, as told in the Dragonlance Chronicles trilogy of novels. This module corresponds to the events told in the first half of the novel Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. Its module code is DL1, which is used to designate it as the first part of the Dragnlace adventure series.
