Pawns of Time is an adventure published by Mayfair Games in 1986 for the superhero role-playing game DC Heroes, the first in the four-part "Chessman" series.

Pawns of Time is the first in a series of four adventures involving the Legion of Super Heroes versus the Time Trapper.[1] The player characters, each a member of the Legion, along with Brainiac 5, are ambushed by six former Legionnaires thought to have died. The "dead" superheroes are now agents of the Time Trapper, who has summoned them from the past and brainwashed them into working for him. Following the ambush, the agents successfully kidnap the comatose Jaxon Rugarth (formerly Legion enemy "The Infinite Man"). The player characters determine that the Time Trapper is trying to turn Rugarth back into The Infinite Man, and must act to stop him.
