Orcs of Stonefang Pass is an adventure for the 4th edition of the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
Orcs of Stonefang Pass is an adventure in which the player characters clear a pass in the mountains of Stonemarch, home to orcs tribes, so the town of Winterhaven can use the pass for trade with other lands. [1]
Orcs of Stonefang Pass by Logan Bonner was published on July 20, 2010. It was the second book in the Hero Series and was designed to be a standalone adventure that could be inserted into any Dungeons & Dragons campaign. [2] [3] The cover was illustrated by Wayne England and the cartography was designed by Jason Engle. [4] RPG Geek reported that while the book is part of the Hero Series "when Wizards of the Coast decided to go to print, they removed the series notation". [3]
Paco G. Jaen, for GMS Magazine, wrote "You will meet some interesting characters and they will give you good motivations to go into the adventure. The encounters are tough, but not impossible and they keep coming. There are a lot of encounters [...] and they’re all great fun. Lots of traps, lots of puzzles and lots of orcs and other creatures you’d expect to find in any good dungeon crawler, which is what this is". [4]

Drizzt Do'Urden is a fictional character appearing in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game. Drizzt was created by author R. A.

Drizzt has since become a popular heroic character of the Forgotten Realms setting, and has been featured as the main character of a long series of books, starting chronologically with The Dark Elf Trilogy. As an atypical drow, Drizzt has forsaken both the evil ways of his people and their home in the Underdark, in the drow city of Menzoberranzan.

The role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), which receives significant attention in the media and in popular culture, has been the subject of numerous controversies. The game sometimes received unfavorable coverage, especially during its early years in the early 1980s. Because the term D&D may be mistakenly used to refer to all types of role-playing games, some controversies regarding D&D mistakenly pertain to role-playing games in general, or to the literary genre of fantasy. Some controversies concern the game and its alleged impact on those who play it, while others concern business issues at the game's original publisher, TSR. The game is now owned by Wizards of the Coast.
