Dragonfire in a Dungeon


Here's another action scene from my series of gaming illustrations for "The Evil Ruins," which was published by Mayfair Games in 1983. The role players here are from what have become traditional gaming fantasy characters: A fire breathing dragon guarding treasure, a young moon priestess, a dwarf with his axe, an older male wizard, and an elven archer. In this scene the group must enter the dragon's lair, avoid being roasted, and unlock the treasure chest with a mystic sigil that only the Moon Priestess can invoke. Or something like that. This game has long since passed into oblivion.
