GREYHAWK Adventures Wouldn't Be Complete Without Some Mention of the Magical Items Unique to Oerth
Official James M. Ward Sample file A compendium of GREYHAWK® campaign ideas for the AD&D® role playing system. TSR, Inc. P.O. Box 756 TSR CIK Ltd. Lake Geneva, The Mill, Rathmore Road WI 53147 U.S.A. Cambridge CB1 4AD United Kingdom ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, AD&D, GREYHAWK, WORLD OF GREYHAWK, PRODUCTS OF YOUR IMAGINATION, and the TSR logo are trademarks owned by TSR, Inc. Det)icatioN I would like to dedicate this work to those uncounted numbers of people who have liked my material and were kind enough to tell me so. Thank you, very much. JMW Introduction Warning: This book is designed for experienced campaigners! I preface my introduction with the above statement because I want you to realize that this isn't a role-playing aid for newcomers. When the AD&D® game was first published, the GRE YHAWK® campaign system had been up and running for several years. Since then, I hope I have helped, in my own small way, to make that campaign and the AD&D game system grow a little larger and run a little better. Now, others have taken up the gauntlet and quite probably hundreds of thousands of player characters have walked down the dirt roads of the City of Greyhawk and roamed the lands of Oerth. This book was created out of the demand by those GREYHAWK game lovers for more information. The oldest, running fantasy campaign has a very vocal following. Each section of this book came out of a direct request for more information about a particular aspect of Oerth and Greyhawk.
