Queen of the Demonweb Pits (Q1) is an adventure module for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game written by David Sutherland. The "Q" in the module code represents the first letter in the word "queen." This module is a sequel to the D series of modules. Queen of the Demonweb Pits was novelized in 2001 under the same title.
Queen of the Demonweb Pits is the seventh in an epic series of adventures set in the World of Greyhawk, starting with persistent raiding by local hill giants and other events described in the G1-3 Against the Giants modules. The series continues from there on an odyssey into the Underdark as described in the "Drow" series of modules: D1 – Descent into the Depths of the Earth, D2 – Shrine of the Kuo-Toa, and D3 – Vault of the Drow. (D1 and D2 were later compiled into a single adventure, D1-2 – Descent into the Depths of the Earth). This module sends the player characters to the demonic abyss to defeat the evil demigod Lolth, the demonic goddess of the drow.

Famous quotes containing the words queen of, queen and/or pits:
“In the game of “Whist for two,” usually called “Correspondence,” the lady plays what card she likes: the gentleman simply follows suit. If she leads with “Queen of Diamonds,” however, he may, if he likes, offer the “Ace of Hearts”: and, if she plays “Queen of Hearts,” and he happens to have no Heart left, he usually plays “Knave of Clubs.””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“The Queen has lands and gold, Mother
The Queen has lands and gold,
While you are forced to your empty breast
A skeleton Babe to hold”
—Amelia Edwards (1831–1892)
“And the glory of character is in affronting the horrors of depravity to draw thence new nobilities of power: as Art lives and thrills in new use and combining of contrasts, and mining into the dark evermore for blacker pits of night.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
