Dungeons & Dragons Co-Creator Dies at 69

By EMILY FREDRIX ?52 minutes ago
MILWAUKEE, Wis. (AP) ?A sad day for fans of role-playing games: The
man who co-created Dungeons & Dragons is dead.
Gary Gygax died Tuesday morning at his home in Lake Geneva, Wis. His
wife Gail says the 69-year-old had been suffering from health problems
for several years.
Gygax and Dave Arneson developed Dungeons & Dragons in 1974 using
medieval characters and mythical creatures. The game known for its
oddly shaped dice eventually was turned into video games, books and
movies.
It's considered the grandfather of fantasy role-playing games and has
inspired legions of adoring fans. Gygax's wife says he always enjoyed
hearing from them.
