The Feathered Priests is an adventure published by Integrated Games in 1986 for any role-playing game system.
The Feathered Priests is a role-playing scenario and gamemaster's aid written for any role-playing game system — conversion rules for Dungeons & Dragons , Advanced Dungeons & Dragons , and RuneQuest are included. The setting is the Endless Plains, where the players must recover a set of tarot-like cards. [1]
Integrated Games planned a five-part fantasy role-playing adventure series called The Complete Dungeon Master Series. Between 1984 and 1986, Simon Forrest and Basil Barrett wrote four adventures, the last in 1986 being The Feathered Priests. This boxed set, with art by Judith Hickling, Huggam, and Fergus Hickling, contains a 16-page book, an 8-page pamphlet, a large two-color map, six cardstock sheets, a cardstock screen, and two sheets of play aids. [2]
The Feathered Priests had been preceded by The Halls of the Dwarven Kings (1984), The Lost Shrine of Kasar-Khan (1985), and The Watchers of the Sacred Flame (1986). Integrated Games went out of business before a planned fifth adventure, Deep Water, Shallow Graves, was published.
In 1992, Flame Publications, an imprint of Games Workshop, bought the rights to The Complete Dungeon Master Series, and Simon Forrest, Brad Freeman and Graeme Davis revised all four adventures to conform to the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay rules, releasing them as the Doomstone Campaign Book Series. The Feathered Priests was retitled Dwarf Wars. [2]
In the July 1987 edition of White Dwarf #91, Paul Cockburn called this adventure "a cracker," although he admitted that this "echoes the other plots of the series with its race against time, find the clues [...] and a big reward in the offing." He concluded with a strong recommendation, saying, "This is possibly the best adventure play aid for AD&D since Ravenloft , with which it shares certain similarities in terms of atmosphere and setting. I'll be running it more than once." [1]
RuneQuest is a fantasy tabletop role-playing game originally designed by Steve Perrin, Ray Turney, Steve Henderson, and Warren James, and set in Greg Stafford's mythical world of Glorantha. It was first published in 1978 by The Chaosium. Beginning in 1984, publication passed between a number of companies, including Avalon Hill, Mongoose Publishing, and The Design Mechanism, before finally returning to Chaosium in 2016. RuneQuest is notable for its system, designed around percentile dice and an early implementation of skill rules, which became the basis for numerous other games. There have been several editions of the game.
Battlesystem is a tabletop miniature wargame designed as a supplement for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game. The original Battlesystem was printed as a boxed set in 1985 for use with the first edition AD&D rules. For the second edition of AD&D, a new version of Battesystem was printed as a softcover book in 1989.
Bushido is a Samurai role-playing game set in Feudal Japan, originally designed by Robert N. Charrette and Paul R. Hume and published originally by Tyr Games, then Phoenix Games, and subsequently by Fantasy Games Unlimited. The setting for the game is a land called Nippon, and characters adventure in this heroic, mythic, and fantastic analogue of Japan's past.
The DL series is a series of adventures and some supplementary material for the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons role playing game.

The original DL series was released from 1984 to 1986, with the final two modules added to it in 1988. In the 1990s these roleplaying adventures from the original series were collected and revised for 2nd Edition AD&D as the three DLC Dragonlance Classics modules. There were also versions of the module series released in 1999, 2000 and 2006.

This series provides a game version of the original Dragonlance storyline later told in the Dragonlance Chronicles trilogy of novels. This module corresponds to the events told in the first half of the novel Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. Its module code is DL1, which is used to designate it as the first part of the Dragonlance adventure series.
