## D&D Classics: Marco Volo: Departure (2E)
Marco Volo: Departure is the first volume of the Marco Volo trilogy,
designed for four to eight player characters of levels 6 to 8. This free-
wheeling adventure begins with an intrigue-laden journey from Waterdeep to
Shadowdale. The party is thrown into the company of one Marcus Wands (also
known as “Marco Volo”), a bothersome but likeable little rogue. In his guise
of Marco, he gains unintentional help from the party members, leading only to
their own arrest. To remedy that predicament, the characters are strong-armed
into carrying an important letter to Shadowdale, and taking along Marcus as
their “guide.”
Of course, things are nowhere near as simple as they seem.
There’s this little matter of the Dragonking’s Eye , a powerful artifact
from another plane. Naively, Marcus thought he could steal the thing and pin
the theft on Volothamp Geddarm, the roguish author of many popular books about
cities in the Realms. The notorious mage-assassin Felibarr Blacklance has been
hired to hunt for the thief, and he is a man grimly determined to earn his
fee.
Then, there’s the business about this letter that’s on its way to Shadowdale.
It is accompanied by a rare enchanted item that wizards and fortune hunters
want to obtain at all costs.
A series of adventures ensues that takes the adventurers from Waterdeep to the
Way Inn, by which time they will doubtless suspect there is more to Marco Volo
than meets the eye. Amid the brawls and mistaken identities, the wild rides
and the glowering villains, the characters never have a chance to slow down or
catch their collective breath. What results is a light-hearted, picaresque
adventure in the manner ofDumas and Sabatini, and a good time is had by all!
(Except the bad guys, of course. They’re never happy with how things are
turning out…)

We (Wizards) recognize that some of the legacy content available on this

Some older content may reflect ethnic, racial, and gender prejudice that were
commonplace in American society at that time. These depictions were wrong then
and are wrong today. This content is presented as it was originally created,
because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never
existed. Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is a strength, and we
strive to make our D&D products as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This
part of our work will never end.
