Dungeon Master's Guide contains rules regarding arbitration and administration of the game, and is intended for use mainly or only by the master of the dungeon game. The original Dungeon Master's Guide was published in 1979 and gave Dungeon Masters everything it needed to launch a gaming campaign. It is intended as a companion to the Player's Handbook, which contains all the basic rules of gameplay, and a guide to monsters, which is a reference book, giving statistics and characteristics to various animals and monsters. The Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and monster Guide are collectively referred to as the basic rules of Dungeons and Dragons. The Dungeon Master's Guide and The Player's Handbook give tips, tips and suggestions on different styles of play. While all players, including the Dungeon Masters, must have a copy of the Player's Handbook, only the Dungeon Master is expected to refer to the Dungeon Master Guide or Monster Guide during the gameplay. Extended Dungeons and Dragons Original Guide ad'D Dungeon Masters (sic) was written by Gary Gigax and published by TSR in 1979 as a 232-page hardcover with the cover of David C. Sutherland III. Print 1983 included a new cover of Jeff Jeff Like other volumes of Dungeons and Dragons, the Dungeon Master's Guide has gone through several versions over the years. The original edition was written by Gary Gigax and edited by Mike Carr, who also wrote the foreword. The original cover was provided by David C. Sutherland III, and the illustrations were provided by Sutherland, D.A. Trumpier, Darlene Pekul, Will McLean, David S. LaFor and Erol Otus. The first edition of dungeon Masters Guide covered all the basic rules for the Dungeon Master: creating and maintaining player characters and managing incredible characters, handling combat, and launching adventures and multi-stage campaigns. The book also included descriptions of magical items and treasures, random encounters with monsters and statistics of the game's main monsters and creatures. New magical items were introduced, including the Kvalis Apparatus. Dungeon Masters Guide contains many tables and diagrams to figure out damage and resolve encounters in a typical adventure, tables and rules for creating characters, and lists of different abilities of different character classes. One of the additions to the manual was Dungeon Masters Screen: two heavy three- fold boards with the most commonly used tables printed on them for easy reference. The second edition of the 1979 screen describes its purpose as useful for protecting maps and other game materials from players when placed upright, and provides an instant link to the diagrams and tables most commonly used during the game. Extended Dungeons and Dragons Second Edition screen came packed with brief adventure; later editions of this screen and screens produced for later editions instead included sheets of symbols and general reference booklets. A feature of the first edition of Dungeon Masters Guide was a random dungeon generator. The generator allowed the Dungeon Master, rolling the dice, to create a dungeon adventure on the fly. The dungeon complete with aisles, rooms, treasures, monsters and other encounters can be easily and accidentally built as the player progresses. It can be used with multiple people or one player. The generator was not included in subsequent editions of Dungeon Master's Guide, but made a re-appearance in the fifth edition of Dungeon Master's Guide. The original Dungeon Masters guide was reviewed by Don Turnbull in the White Dwarf magazine #16 (December 1979/January 1980). Turnbull commented on the main size of the book: I would say that only the harshest critic can point to a slight omission, let alone serious. The first edition of Dungeon Masters Guide was reproduced as a premium reissue on July 17, 2012. Reviews of Casus Belli #39 (August 1987) Advanced Dungeons and Dragons 2nd edition of AD'D Dungeon Master Guide was released in 1989. This 192-page page The book was developed by David Seb Cooke, with the cover of Jeff Easley. The book featured illustrations by Easley, Clyde Caldwell, John and Laura Lakey, David Dorman, Douglas Chaffee and Gene Martin. This Dungeon Master Guide featured revised second edition rules for Dungeon Master, completely reorganized and streamlined. The book details the options for creating characters, alignment, new rules of money and equipment, treasures and magical items, meetings, time and movement, as well as processing unyable characters. The book is indexed and contains many full-page color illustrations. The second edition of Dungeon Master Guide is the winner of the ORIGINS and Gamer's Choice Awards. In his 1991 book Heroic Worlds, Lawrence Schick noted that the book contains many great new tips on how to manage ADD. A new version of the Dungeon Master Guide, with new art and layout, but with the same text, was released in 1995, as part of the 25th anniversary of TSR. The second edition of Dungeon Master Guide was reproduced as a premium reissue on May 21, 2013.

The dungeon was published in 2000. Monte Cook, Jonathan Tweet, and Skip Williams all contributed to the 3rd edition of Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Guide, and then each designer wrote one of the books based on these contributions. Cook is credited with designing the book. Cover by Henry Higginbotham, with interiors by Lars Grant West, Scott Fisher, John Foster, Todd Lockwood, David Martin, Arnie Swekel, Kevin Walker, Sam Wood, and Wayne Reynolds. The Dungeon Master's Guide was republished in 2001 as a slightly revised edition, correcting several errors in the first edition. In 2003, the Dungeon Master's Guide was revised for publication 3.5. David Noonan and Rich Redman are credited with the Dungeon Master Guide 3.5 revision. Art cover by Henry Higginbotham, with interior art by Matt Kavotta, Ed Cox, Lars Grant-West, Scott Fisher, John Foster, Jeremy Jarvis, John and Laura Lakey, Todd Lockwood, David Martin, Raven Mimura, Wayne Reynolds, Scott Roller, Brian Snoddy, Arnie Swekel, and Sam Wood. Asked about the changes from Dungeon Master's previous guide, Rich Redman said: I think the most immediate, obvious and dramatic change is the reorganization. When the 3rd edition of the book came out, the adventure game was supposed to teach you about DZO (including how to play and DMing) and the adventure path modules were supposed to help you learn more about DMing. This means that DMG may be, more or less, a directory or encyclopedia of information about the rules for DMs. C C the demise of the adventure game (which stopped printing long before we started at 3.5), we had to focus 3.5 books much more on introducing the game to the players. This means, in particular, the reorganization of DMG. Several years of published books that referenced pages and chapters in DMG meant that we could only reorganize so many, but the copies I saw stayed pretty close to how I reorganized it. The Dungeon Master's Guide (v.3.5) was reproduced as a premium reissue on September 18, 2012.

    Volos Guide to the North Wind by the Fireside So as you shiver in the cold and the dark, Look into the fire and see in its spark My eye Watching over you. As you walk in the winds whistling claws. Listen past the howling of the wolfs jaws. My song Comes to you. And when youre lost in trackless snow, Look up high where the eagles go. My star Shines for you. In deep, dark mine or on crumbling peak, Hear the words of love I speak. My thoughts Are with you. You are not forsaken. You are not forgotten. The North cannot swallow you. The snows cannot bury you. I will come for you. Faerûn will grow warmer, And the gods will smile But oh, my love, guard yourself well All this may not happen for a long, long while.
