What was the first action RPG game to also have roguelike elements like procedurally generated dungeons, permanent death (aka permadeath), etc.?
Note: By "action RPG" I mean Diablo-style games.

My guess will be Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Cloudy Mountain, an Intellivision game released in 1982:
The gameplay involves exploring a series of randomly generated scrolling mazes, looking for treasures and weapons with which to defeat monsters, and recovering the two pieces of the Crown of Kings.
