Gary Gygax Passes

gary_gygax.jpg

I'm a bit choked up, but word from Troll Lord Games is that Gary Gygax, creator of Dungeons & Dragons, has passed away. There are few details, but those currently available can be found here.

If I hear more details I will post them. In the meantime, my deepest condolences to Gary's family and friends. He's brought millions of people happiness in our unique hobby and will be greatly missed.

EDIT 2:15 p.m. EST 3/4/08: As promised, more details (these from the Chicago Tribune) located here.

That really sucks. Too bad no one was around to give him a rez.

I blame 4th edition. Goodnight, sweet archetypal sadistic dungeon master prince.
