Dungeons and Dragons creator Gary Gygax died this week, at the age of 69. Here is an article in the New York Times about his significance in the world of fantasy gaming.
His original game company was acquired by Renton’s own local fantasy game company, Wizards of the Coast, in 1997. (Wizards has since been purchased by Hasbro, but continues to design fantasy role-play games from the Renton facility)
While I don’t partake in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D as it’s often known), my wife has been known to fight a monster or two. Here are some pictures of a local game.
I love how the table is scattered with traditional gamer food. <3
Tasteless joke
Gygax isn’t dead…. he’s rolling in his grave.
Re: Tasteless joke
Ha ha!
That is really cute. I think Gygax would have approved.
A friend forwarded me this cartoon…
