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 first D&D rulebooks were released in 1974 by TSR, and since then have produced three full-fledged sequels, numerous revisions and updates, and dozens upon dozens of additional rulebooks, settings, and campaigns. The 4th edition of D&D is due this year in June. While Gygax hadn't had much direct involvement with D&D for many years, he developed and contributed to many role-playing games.
Thank you, Gary.
