So long, and thanks for all the weird fish-monsters

Bunyip, Squark, Sea Lion and so many more.

Gary Gygax, (co-)creator of D&D, is dead at 69.

I would have noted this yesterday, but my internet decided to die alongside him. Seriously, I got the post from Critical-Hits on my RSS feed, clicked it, and wasn’t able get to it.

The local gaming store, today, has a small memorial set up. They are also a wine- and beer-making store, and are brewing a special batch of beer, entitled Mordenkainen’s Under-Dark Lager (or something to that effect).

You will be missed.

“The Gygax is dead! Long live the Xagyg!”
