Dungeon Master Gary Gygax, 1938-2008

Gary Gygax, co-creator of D&D died Tuesday, March 4, 2008.

Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons & Dragons and one of the fathers of tabletop role-playing games, died on Tuesday at the age of 69. He had suffered from heart problems.

The news was first announced on the message board of Troll Lord Games, the publisher of Gygax's most recent works. It has since been directly confirmed by the company, which will post an announcement on its Web site later Tuesday.

I spent many hours of imagination filled fun playing D&D with some of my best friends.  Thank you Gary for giving us geeks an outlet,
