Dave Arneson, one of the co-creators of the Dungeons & Dragons, died peaceful on Tuesday. He was 61.
He and Gary Gygax created Dungeons & Dragons in 1974. They gave us every type of warrior and mythical creature you could think of; causing millions of folks to stay up very late and search for an adventure.
I'm sure some of us played D & D somewhere in our lives. I remember playing a couple of times in college and realizing there were other fantasy freaks like me.
He will be missed.

I will gather my twenty sided dice and say a prayer.
I still have my funny shaped dice. I was a fierce wizard named Appregio back in the day.
I too was a high level wizard. Played from my late teens to around 23 years old.
Met some interesting people who I crossed path with over the years. Some are still into it. I don't know, those still doing RPG's at 35 or more strike me as a little bit, I don't know, ungrounded.
