Portal:Dragonlance/Intro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to the Dragonlance Portal. Dragonlance is a large series of fantasy novels, with over 100 novels printed. It was originally created by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. Hickman and his wife created the basic idea while driving in their car on the way to TSR for Hickman to take a job. At TSR, he met his future partner Margaret Weis, and they gathered a group of associates to play a Dungeons & Dragons tabletop roleplaying game. The adventures of that game became Dragons of Autumn Twilight, and that novel was the first in the Chronicles Trilogy, the core novels of Dragonlance. The majority of the novels take place in the various regions of Ansalon, a small continent, though some have taken place on the lesser known continent of Taladas, north of Ansalon.
