Ravager of Time is an Advanced Dungeons & Dragons game module published in 1986. Player characters, stricken by a rapid aging process, engage in a campaign against the sorceress Nuala in a swamplands setting, culminating in an assault on Nuala's keep. As a TSR UK production, it features a notably different expository style, non-player-character types, atmosphere, and situations than many of the game modules created in the U.S.

[edit] Plot summary
In Ravager of Time, the player characters are hired to search a fenland for a lord's son who slew his father, but the character become entangled in the plot of the evil that taints Eylea.[1]
The Lord Temporal Rughlor returned from the wider world to settle at Ffenargh Manor, Lorge, with a radiant young wife, Nuala. However, her beauty hid a will for evil and a hunger for the forgotten lore of an ancient wizard buried below Lorge. Rughlor discovered his wife’s evil and destroyed her and himself, and Lorge was abandoned. But Nuala’s treacherous beauty, even as a distorted tale, fascinated another scion of Ffenargh Manor, Miles D’Arcy, who, with the aid of a thief and one of Eylea’s strange relics, found and resurrected the sorceress. He completed her last terrible spell, causing his own doom, and embroiled a group of powerful adventurers in Nuala’s plot to gain allies for her bid for power in the Ffenargh. Nuala now plans to use these adventurers and her own new powers to overthrow the creaky clerical hierarchy of Eylea and rule the Ffenargh.
The adventure includes statistics for new monsters, the slime golem, and the life-bane duplicates.[1]
