Gary Gygax, the father of Dungeons & Dragons past away today. My heart goes out to his family and friends and wish him the best. As a fan of the Greyhawk setting and to put it in gaming terms, the land of Oerth is a little sadder today, I know Gary is up there with the Gods of Greyhawk today.

Rest in peace Gary.

The rough cut Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight that premieried at Comic Con and subsequently shown at Gen Con and Dragon Con has been posted at the official Dragonlance movie site. it was also accomapanied by a statement by Paramount Pictures on the status of the final trailer. Below is the same trailer linked through Youtube.

This was posted at the official movie site for the Dragonlance movie today, thought I’d share. This is an elven prayer hymn that Tracy Hickman wrote and Carl Preusser set to music. It’s as beautiful as I remember it was at Gen Con.

Enjoy.
