1983.
A new Monster Manual.
A new generation of monsters.
And the first AD&D hardcover cover painted by Jeff Easley.
TSR had no idea they were looking at the debut of one of the defining fantasy artists of the next two decades.
Here is the map of the Greyhawk catacombs and sewers. It's probably one of my favorite dungeon maps. A river runs through these sewers, along with stairways that descend 1,600 feet. And how could I fail to mention the immense underground lake, complete with an island and a boat?
As a DM, I don’t run campaigns with evil PCs. I get that some folks might like it, but for us, it’s all about being heroes.
As a player, last time I played where there was one evil thief in a group of good characters, I didn’t make past 3 sessions… too much in party fighting because of it.
What say you?
