In Search of High Adventure

High adventure. This is not the crude wenching of such salty warriors as barbarians. No, these are noble quests in search of great treasures and the downfall of vast evil powers--where dragons’ hordes are stripped from their evil clutches in conflicts steeped in blood, fire, and steel.

Alright, you probably get the idea. The AD&D game lets you leave the boredom of real life and jump right into the very myths of our past. Note that the classic epic hero has always been a warrior, since wizards never existed, priests don’t cast spells in reality, and thieves only adventure when they have to.

Unfortunately, that leaves some of the other character classes out in the cold, but that’s okay, they have their own ways of achieving glory, wealth, power, and (best of all) knighthood.
