Jenell Jaquays passed away
quote:
Jennell Jaquays was an important figure in the development of Dungeons & Dragons and the tabletop roleplaying game industry. She passed away today at the age of 68. Known for her work on Dark Tower and Caverns of Thracia, she was a game designer and artist; she was responsible for many RPG covers, including Dragon Mountain. Jennell worked for TSR, Judges Guild, and Chaosium, amongst others, as well as video game companies, working on Quake and Age of Empires, and was also a an activist for trans rights, instrumental in brining about important legislation as creative director for the Transgender Human Rights Institute. Jenny had been suffering from Guillain-Barré syndrome in recent years.
Our condolences go out to Jennell's friends and family. The industry lost a legend today.
FR 5 The Savage Frontier is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES.
Godspeed Jenell, may Kelemvor guide you... |

Yes, FR5 was one of the best of the FR# series, even including Jenell's "other world" quirks.
