The First Fantasy Campaign

Published: 1976 by Judges Guild
Author: Dave Arneson

This book describes various features of D&D co-creator Dave Arneson's Blackmoor campaign, including locales, player characters, and a (somewhat sketchy) overview of Castle Blackmoor itself.

Although fascinating for anyone with an interest in the history of the RPG hobby (Arneson's Blackmoor game provided the impetus for Gygax's development of the Dungeons and Dragons system), the First Fantasy Campaign supplement is very loosely organized and may disappoint readers who are hoping for a fully fleshed out campaign setting.

Because the FFC was published during a time of legal strife between Gygax and Arneson, the supplement uses generic game terms and is not considered an official Dungeons and Dragons product.
