Unreliable Illustrator |

comment |
Unreliable Illustrator: Raistlin describes the spellbook of Fistandantilus as midnight blue with silver runes but the one Bupu gives him is brown with golden engraving. Someone didn't read the script. |

Adapted Out |
| | Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight / int_33d5b7f2 |
comment |
Adapted Out: Several characters and scenes are cut such as the journey through the swamp surrounding Xak Tsaroth, the escape from the Draconian camp, most of the exploration in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth, the battle in the tomb of Kith-Kanan, and Sestun. Most glaringly, Berem the Green Gemstone man is absent which would have caused problems down the line. |

Fantastic Racism: Humans like Rivermind mistrust Elves and the Elves look down on Tanis for being half-human. |

| | Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight / int_723606c4 |
comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: Verminaard first appears at the start of the movie. In the book he didn't appear until well into the second half. Onyx first appears as shifted into Winged Humanoid at the start of the movie, in the book she didn't show up till the Companions reached Xak Tsaroth. Kitiara appears as a Dragon Highlord at the end of the film. She didn't appear until midway through the second book. Fizban's identity as Paladine is revealed at the climax of the novel, where the books only hint at it until the third novel decisively confirms it. |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication |
| | Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight / int_794f3589 |
comment |
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: Goldmoon proclaiming herself a true cleric is undercut by the film not bringing up the issue of clerics previously and failing to explain what they are. In the book it's explained that the true clerics vanished along with the gods. |

comment |
Compressed Adaptation: Crunching a 448 page novel into a 90 minute film inevitably results in this with scenes rushed through and as one reviewer described it "puts the entire tale on fast forward" |
