"Go to the sign of Marvel's Axe, a dubious inn on the edge of the Thieves Quarter, in the City of Greyhawk, and look to your own wrist. If you perceive a bracelet and dangling dice, watch for the next throw in the war between Law and Chaos and be prepared to follow the compelling geas." -Signal

Role Aids: Wizards



From the back of the book:

For sheer power, originality, and cunning, no other group approaches Wizards. Collected here are original articles written by the creators of some of the most famous magicians in history. In addition, four of early literature's most famous spectacular conjurors are presented in detail. Fantasy modules then provide the unique oppurtunity for gamers to join on a perilous quest with their favorite magic user.

The adventures in Wizards are suitable for use with all popular roleplaying systems including Advanced Dungeons and Dragons.
