Nominated for the 1986 in the category of outstanding young actress in an animation/voice-over Theme songThe cartoon ran in the and with an instrumental theme; however, in France it ran with the song 'Le Sourire du Dragon' sung by; in Spain, the theme song 'Dragones y Mazmorras' ('Dragons and Dungeons') sung by became very popular.In other countries, it also ran with a local translation of this song. However, in Brazil, due to a change in character roles, the lyrics are altered.ToysA Dungeons & Dragons toyline was produced by in 1983., including original characters such as, Strongheart the Paladin or the evil Wizard Kelek that would later appear in campaigns for the role-playing game. None of the main characters from the TV series was included in the toyline, but a connection does exist, as Warduke, Strongheart and several characters from the toyline occasionally guest-starred in some episodes of the series.
Only in Spain and Portugal were produced figures of the main cast (Hank, Sheila, etc.).DVDThe Complete Series - United StatesDVDs of the series were released in the UK (Region 2) in 2004. The US Region 1 DVDs were released on,.UK - From the Contender Entertainment Group. Dungeons & Dragons — The Complete Animated Series. Dungeons & Dragons volume 1. Dungeons & Dragons volume 2.

Dungeons & Dragons volume 4US - From BCI Eclipse. Dungeons & Dragons — The Complete Series. The pilot episode (Disc 1) has commentary from the creative team that provides insight about making the series and also some of the difficulties encountered with anti-D&D groups.There are differences between both releases.
The US DVD release is notable for having a specially created audio of the final episode that was never made (this is not available on the UK DVD). Likewise a booklet was created for the US release which the UK one does not have. The US release, however, is also notable for having had some music alterations for some of the episodes for copyright reasons, or so Disney claims. This has been done by replacing the original score for the affected episodes with various instrumental tracks from other episodes of the series plus a few from other sources.
The UK release however does not suffer from this and all of the original music scores are still intact in the episodes. Why the UK is not affected by the change, but the US version is, is a subject of debate.Differences with the RPGThe 'Dungeon Master' appears as a -like character who interacts physically with the leading characters, acting as a and having wizardly or godlike powers. The Dungeon Master could as a result, in some rare instances, also be hurt or threatened in the show. The DM of an RPG does not have a physical manifestation or character representing him/herself in the game, but instead acts out the parts of Non-Player-Characters & Monsters, and gives descriptions of the player's physical surroundings, while acting as a referee. The film character of Dungeon Master is a play on RPG refereeing, in that Dungeon Master personifies jokes and familiar tropes to DM's of RPG gaming. Dungeon Master controls the world around the characters; his son plays the arch-evil NPC, Venger. When the party complains he teasingly offers them a way home, much like an RPG DM suggesting that now is time to end a D&D session; but something always comes up to keep the game going.
The mysterious appearances of Dungeon Master in the cartoon may be inspired by the occasional instances in RPG D&D where the DM breaks the, or ceases to act merely as a narrator and directly gives hints or guidance to players who were close to dooming their characters.Most D&D games have characters whose origins are in the world they exist, such as, or, or the (the third of which was created after the series ended). In the show, the protagonists were children from Earth who were transported to 'The Realm' (which has no specific name in this series). The cartoon characters are like D&D reflections of the ordinary humans who rode the dark ride at the start of the series. Each character's personality is a derivative of their real-world personality. In an RPG this would be considered poor role-playing as the purpose is to play a character different from yourself. Thus, the premise of the cartoon is a send-up on role-playing gaming, where normal people transport themselves (in their minds) to another world, to act out a character.
Alternatively, the concept was simply a way of creating characters with whom kids could empathize in a Saturday morning cartoon.There are several appearances of creatures true to the game. Purple Worms, and other creatures were often accurately depicted in the show, clearly drawing inspiration from art within such books as the.
At times, however, the monsters differed from their game descriptions. One case was the Beholder. In the game, a beholder has different powers for each eye, but during the in-show appearance of 'Eye of the Beholder', the beholder used generic energy blasts and 'force tentacles'.The US Complete Series DVD release has packaged inside a 30-page hardcover minibook entitled 'Dungeons & Dragons Animated Series Handbook', which was prepared by Wizards of the Coast as an adaptation of the animated series to D&D 3.5 paper & pen rules. The handbook includes an adventure, 'Beneath the Blade of Sword Mountain', that serves as a prequel to the Animated Series episode 'The Dragon's Graveyard'. The book also outlines the D&D statistics of the main characters of the Animated Series (along with Venger and Shadow Demon), and rules for their items of power-although, the adaptations do not include exact power conversions from the series. For example, Hank's Energy Bow can fire energy arrows (which are treated as Magic Missiles), but there is no mention in the converted rules of his ability to warp that energy into the energy rope constructs seen many times in the series.A magic hat is usually not the source of a wizard's spell powers in the game (verbal and material components may be required).
Presto's magic hat is derived from a blend of.
