    Shoggoth.net mourns Gary Gygax
    Contributed by trollboy on Tuesday March 04, 08, @ 12:23PM
    Shoggoth.net is mourning the death of Gary Gygax, the father of Role-Playing Games. From Cnn.com:

    MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin (AP) -- Gary Gygax, who co-created the fantasy game Dungeons & Dragons and helped start the role-playing phenomenon, died Tuesday morning at his home in Lake Geneva. He was 69.

    He had been suffering from health problems for several years, including an abdominal aneurysm, said his wife, Gail Gygax.

    Gygax and Dave Arneson developed Dungeons & Dragons in 1974 using medieval characters and mythical creatures. The game known for its oddly shaped dice became a hit, particularly among teenage boys, and eventually was turned into video games, books and movies.

    Gygax always enjoyed hearing from the game's legion of devoted fans, many of whom would stop by the family's home in Lake Geneva, about 55 miles southwest of Milwaukee, his wife said. Despite his declining health, he hosted weekly games of Dungeons & Dragons as recently as January, she said.

    "It really meant a lot to him to hear from people from over the years about how he helped them become a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman, what he gave them," Gygax said. "He really enjoyed that."

    Dungeons & Dragons players create fictional characters and carry out their adventures with the help of complicated rules. The quintessential geek pastime, it spawned a wealth of copycat games and later inspired a whole genre of computer games that's still growing in popularity.

    Funeral arrangements are pending. Besides his wife, Gygax is survived by six children.

    Frontier Cthulhu

    Growing up among the ruins of the western expansion I’ve long held a special place in my cold little heart for stories of the old west and specifically the rare and (unfortunately) usually campy stories of the supernatural side of the Wild West.
    Let’s all sacrifice a virgin to the Great Old Ones, and hope they twist one or more great and fearsome orifices into smiles when they look down/up/sideways at this new anthology.

    NOTE from the author: Though this is posted in the Cthulhu Mythos/H.P. Lovecraft stories arena, this is a story based on factual events and are without the mystic and weird oddities that are normally placed throughout this forum. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the story! JB
