In the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' fantasy roleplaying game, Baba Yaga ( )〔Mentzer, Frank. "Ay pronunseeAY shun gyd" ''Dragon'' #93 (TSR, 1985)〕 is a powerful antagonist and resident of a mobile hut which travels via a pair of massive chicken legs jutting from its underside. Baba Yaga is based upon the Baba Yaga of Slavic legend. ==Publishing history== Baba Yaga was first mentioned in the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' game in the 1979 ''Dungeon Master's Guide'', where her hut appears as an artifact. Baba Yaga herself would appear in ''The Dancing Hut'', a 1984 adventure in ''Dragon'' magazine. An AD&D gamebook, ''Nightmare Realm of Baba Yaga'' appeared in 1986. In 1988, Baba Yaga had a brief cameo in ''Castle Greyhawk''. Baba Yaga's hut was once more described in 1993's ''Book of Artifacts''. A full-length adventure module, ''The Dancing Hut of Baba Yaga'', was released in 1995. In ''Dragon'' #290, author Paul Leach said, "the origin of Baba Yaga (who does not necessarily represent just one witch) is likely to be the Death Crone, a common figure in most pagan mythologies." Leach described the Death Crone in more detail in the same issue.〔Leach, Paul. "Red Sails Fell and Forlorn Bestiary: Monsters of Eastern Europe." ''Dragon'' #290. Renton, WA: Wizards of the Coast, 2001〕〔Leach, Paul. "Red Sails: Bright Sun, Mother Earth." ''Dragon'' #290. Renton, WA: Wizards of the Coast, 2001〕 Baba Yaga has since been mentioned in two articles in ''Dragon'' (2005 and 2006), and an adventure in ''Dungeon'' (2007). In the 4th Edition ''Manual of the Planes'' (2008), Baba Yaga was re-imagined as a hag and an archfey of the Feywild disguising herself as an old woman in the Murkendraw swamp and still living in her bird-legged hut. She and her hut were described in the ''Dungeon'' #196 article ''Baba Yaga's Dancing Hut'' (2011). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baba Yaga (Dungeons & Dragons)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
