[QUOTE="cybertalus, post: 1349507, member: 4400"] Ed Greenwood's article about treasures which lead to adventures from an issue numbered somewhere in the 160's. It was basically a table of treasure that included adventure hooks, such as a magical scabbard which is really a doppleganger, or a figurine that is really a person who was shrunk and placed in temporal stasis several hundred years ago. The adventure "The Sword of Justice" by Jon Mattson from the December 1984 issue. My first DM tried to run that adventure two or three times with our original group and for various reasons we never did finish it. It was the the very first article I looked up when I bought the Dragon Archive CDs. Of the series articles, Wizards Three was definitely my favorite. I also enjoyed the Voyage of the Princess Ark (even though I had zero interest in the campaign world it was set in, the unfolding story got me hooked and kept me reading), Robinson's War, Bazaar of the Bizarre, and those articles Ed Greenwood used to write about spellbooks with unique spells where he spent as much space talking about the history of the spellbooks themselves and the mages who authored them as he did on the game stats of the new spells.
