D&D | Tower of Zenopus | Player Introduction
This player introduction was the original 1977 D&D boxset sample dungeon "Tower of Zenopus". The last few pages of the Holmes Basic rulebook are filled with an introductory scenario simply titled, "Sample Dungeon". This basic level dungeon replaces the "Sample Map of Underworld Level" found on pages 4-5 of The Underworld & Wilderness Adventures (volume 3 of the original D&D set).
