The Creator of D&D and the roleplaying game as we know it has died.

I credit Gary Gygax with the birth of my imagination. When I was about 7, my sister gave me a copy of the 1st Edition Monster Manual. I began collecting and later playing D&D and AD&D.

Gygax creations have influenced and entertains countless numbers of people. He will be missed

• Penny Arcade (funny, Gygax would be proud)
