dragonlgnd 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2008 The creator of D&D died, I'm not sure when I havent found the information, but I think it was last week. Someone made a post as a suggestion for Blizz to add a Gary Gygax NPC into the game as a nod to him. I thought I'd post this for the other D&Der's in the guild, maybe add your support to it too. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.h...=1&pageNo=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feanore 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) For those that don't know who he was: He was probably as influential as Tolkien in regards to fantasy (especially gaming). I don't think MMOs would be the same today if it weren't for his system of rules. Edited March 5, 2008 by Feanore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noesis 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2008 I never really got into D&D but I do know that Gygax basically laid the foundation for much of what we know these days. How did he die? Did he fail his saving roll...? (maybe in bad taste, but its a d&d thing eh) /roll (i dont have any 20's...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
