I’ve just double checked the BBC’s teletext pages, and found out that Dave Arneson — co-creator, along with Gary Gygax, of “Dungeons & Dragons” — died on Tuesday.
That’s sad to hear.
Now, I never played the defining game of the role-playing hobby, but I was familiar with it.
And think that both he, and Gygax, should have a plaque somewhere to honour what has gone on to be a major industry, in it’s various forms.
He’ll be missed by many.
In Memorium.
Dave Arneson
October 1st, 1947 — April 7th, 2009.
