transforming his home D&D campaign called "Greyhawk" into a publishable form. His long-range plan - left incomplete when he was ousted from TSR in 1985 - was to create an entire fantasy world; however when he asked TSR's printing house about the maximum size of paper they could handle, the answer was just 34" x 22" (86 cm x 56 cm). He found that, using the scale he desired, he could only fit the northeast corner of one continent on two of those sheets. He placed the city and castle of Greyhawk roughly in the centre of the map, in an area that would have about the same temperate climate as his home in Lake Geneva, and made a rough sketch of the rest of the map, an area he called the "Flanaess". Darlene was given the assignment of developing a full color map on a hex grid from Gygax's prototype map. Jasmine Shortly before World of Greyhawk was published, Darlene created the cover art for Dragon magazine issue 37. This issue also carried the first episode of "Jasmine", her color comic strip about a princess whose realm was coveted by an evil prince. The strip ran for 12 issues before being cancelled for not appealing to the magazine's mostly male readers. Darlene tried to a promote a petition at Origins '81 to have the comic strip brought back, but it gathered few signatures. Shortly after this, she designed and produced the card game Jasmine: The Battle for the Mid-Realm. Although reviews in Gameplay and The Dragon were good - Merle Rasmussen wrote, "Jasmine incorporates a few old ideas with many new ones to create a fresh approach in card gaming." - an expected expansion deck never materialized. Further freelance assignments She continued to take assignments from TSR, and between 1981 and 1984, her work appeared in White Plume Mountain, Investigation of Hydell, Monster Cards Set 3, the boxed set of the updated and expanded World of Greyhawk Fantasy Setting, and Legends & Lore. Darlene drew the cover art for the KABAL role-playing game (1982). Post-fantasy career In 1984, she legally changed her name to just Darlene, dropping her surname Pekul as well as legally changing the typography of her name to a capital and small capitals. That same year, she left the world of fantasy artwork to enroll in Graphic Design at Indiana University, and graduated with a Master
