Hawk Moor: The Unofficial History of Dungeons & Dragons

The role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) has been around for over 40 years, and in that time it has spawned a vast number of spin-off products, including novels, video games, and board games. One of the most popular of these spin-offs is Hawk Moor, which is set in the same world as D&D but tells its own stories.

Hawk Moor was created by Kenzer & Company in 1993, and it was originally published as a fanzine. The fanzine was a huge success, and it soon caught the attention of TSR, Inc., the company that published D&D. TSR licensed the Hawk Moor setting to Kenzer & Company, and the first official Hawk Moor role-playing game was published in 1995.

The Hawk Moor setting is a dark and gritty fantasy world. It is a world of violence, intrigue, and magic. The world is divided into a number of different kingdoms, each of which is ruled by a powerful overlord. The overlords are constantly at war with each other, and the common people are caught in the crossfire.

The gameplay of Hawk Moor is similar to that of D&D. The players create characters and then go on adventures. The adventures are typically set in the Hawk Moor setting, but they can also be set in other worlds. The players use the d20 System to resolve combat, skill checks, and other actions.
