Happy Birthday Gary Gygax!

[trilobite]

Ernest Gary Gygax (born July 27, 1938 in Chicago, Illinois) is best known as the author of the well known fantasy role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), co-created with Dave Arneson and co-published with Don Kaye in 1974 under the company Tactical Studies Rules. Although not alone in contributing to the origins of the industry, Gygax is generally considered to be the "father" of the modern role-playing hobby.

Happy Birthday to the man who started it all! Thanks for everything Gary!

Happy birthday Gary! Remember to focus on how you're gaining ability points to your mental stats, instead of losing them to your physical ones.

Thanks for creating such a wonderful gift for so many of us!

Gary,

May the coming year and those that follow be as joyful and full of good times to you as the introduction of Gaming has been to us.
