The passing of a great man

Mar 04, 2008 22:06

Earlier today Gary Gygax, one of the founders of Dungeons and Dragons and modern day Table Top Gaming as we know it, passed on. This may not have meaning for some of you, but for me it hits a bit close to home. I started doing Role Playing Games when I was 9 years old, and 17 years later I am still gaming every week ( Read more... )

I hope he knows a high level cleric who knows how to cast True Reserection.

*chuckle* I've been seeing those jokes all day ^^' Sadly, the only clerics on this plane can't cast Reserection, let alone true reserection :-\

Well, I'll just have to put on my wizard hat and robes, hit the pavement/planes, and see what I can do.

It also allowed you to meet.... me!

Very sad when they greats go, but look at what he left us. :)

That's kind of how I feel. I feel a little sad at his passing, but when I look around and see the outpouring of feelings and appreciation for his contribution, whether or not people actually played his game (or even liked it!), they all said that thanks to him they could enjoy a great hobby, and that makes me feel good.

And yes, it allowed me to meet you :)
