The Dungeon Series (also known as the Dungeon_____ Series) are {{Roleplay}}s on the MSPA Forums by Plumfinder. The idea of the game is that the players have been captured by an {{Evil Overlord}} and must do whatever necessary to escape their dungeon, unlike some other roleplays however, once a player has died they are [[FinalDeath gone for good]] and they are not coming back, they're dead.

The first one was popular enough that Plumfinder created more, there is currently 3 in the series: [=DungeonFlight=], [=DungeonRun=] and [=DungeonCrawl=] (the third one is currently still ongoing). They can be found [[http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?28564-DungeonFlight here]], [[http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?29886-DungeonRun here]] and [[http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?36643-DungeonCrawl-%28No-3-in-the-Dungeon-series%29 here]].

!!The Dungeon Series as a whole provides examples of:
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Not only are all the players different colors, they are even [[ColourfulThemeNaming named after their own color]].
* ColourfulThemeNaming: See AmazingTechnicolorPopulation above.
* DungeonShop: Each dungeon has a shop that will happily sell the escapees items.
* WeirdCurrency: The first game required Tigerbeast Ears of all things to buy anything from the shop. The second one wasn't much better, the shopkeeper only accepted lumps of coal as tender.
** Justified in the first game, as the players had no gold to trade in, however the shopkeeper was a collector of Tigerbeast Ears and was more than happy to trade items for them.
!!List of Tropes for [=DungeonFlight=]:
* ItemCrafting: Green combines a Tigerbeast tail and an axe to create... a tail tied to an axe. This doesn't stop Green from turning the Axewhip into an effective weapon.
!!List of Tropes for [=DungeonRun=]:
* {{Badass}}: Mustard and Red.
* CoolHat: Mustard. He can even pull mice out of it.
* ICallHerVera: Dark Red makes himself a spear, which he instantly names Barron Stabin of Pikeshire.
