Gary Gygax

E. Gary Gygax, one of the creators of Dungeons and Dragons, died of a heart attack today. His creation has given me many hours of enjoyment and spawned the popularity of role plaing games. He will be missed.

ETA: His passing seems to be bringing out a lot of geeky gallows humor and I'm ok with that. My brother just said that it was a shame he couldn't find a high enough level cleric.

Guess his number was up.







Sorry - couldn't resist.

We had a lot of fun in Greyhawk, long ago and far away. Thank you for DMing back then.

Love,

Heisenberg

My husband has decided to "blame" Gygax for being married to me. It goes like this: if not for GG, no D&D. No D&D means no gaming with Mikey. No Mikey means no [livejournal.com profile] lepi. No Lepi means never meeting me.

Go figure.
