The Wizards Three were a trio of wizards (usually Mordenkainen, Elminster of Toril and Dalamar of Krynn) who met on a mostly harmless alternate Oerth known as Earth in the dining room of author Ed Greenwood. There, they feasted themselves (at Greenwood's expense) and swapped magical lore, which Greenwood would secretly record and use as fodder for articles in the magazine Dragon, after translating the spells into game terms.

Publishing History

The series began in Dragon #185 (1992), with only Mordenkainen and Elminster.
