I don't know. All I know is there was an old man whining about "today's game" and I immediately thought of diaglo.

Maybe Rich will reveal the old man's name as Olgaid...

 

[The Shaman]

Excellent!

Oh, I agree. It even looks like him.....

granted, I actually have no idea what he looks like.

Nope, they weren't even there in 1e until they started producing supplements for it (I first saw them in wilderness survival guide/dungeon survival guide but there may have been earlier stuff I didn't notice. Where they in unearthed arcana?)

No they were not in UA. I rember them in the survival books but didn't know if they had existed in early incarnations of the game

we wrote them into a background... and we liked it that way...

we climbed uphill both ways in the dead of night...






i think they were in the OA hardback too for 1edADnD.


edit: before that they were secondary skills in the 1edADnD DMG (1979 revised)
