---

Elven princess, human mage, a warrior priest and a thief

the path of danger dare they tread,

with leather, steel and magic!

I chronicle they perilous journey

advise them from here to yonder,

I am the master manipulator,

I am Dungeon Master!

I see many battles before you

I see the ruin of countless lives

I see the death of one of you

and I see others in levels rise



(DM:) Behold! A Dragon!

(Goblin King:) My cloak of invisibility shall protect me!

(Warrior:) My broadsword cries for justice! Tis dragon-blood I seek!

(DM:) The dragon still stands! Who dares defy it?

(Elven Princess:) Tis elven magic I bring - this dragon I will slay!

(DM:) And still the dragon stands! Will the thief finish the job?

(Thief:) In the shadows I will stay - from the shadows I will slay...

Who will live?

Who will die?

The mage stands!

The warrior lives!

The thief stands!

the princess dies!

A journey fraught with danger,

path of thorns and sorrows,

good friends lost but treasures gained,

who has suffered most?

I chronicle the stories, but I also shape the lives,

advise them from here to yonder,

I am Dungen Master!
