Was Dungeon Master just screwing with the kids in the D&D cartoon?

To be fair, we don't know for certain that Dungeon Master bedded half of the of-age female characters that appeared on the show.

Otherwise we'd be certain it was Elminster.

(I had no idea until recently that Howard the Duck's creator wrote some episodes for D&D. Huh...)

Heh, you think that's funny, check who wrote 'Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors' and 'Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future'.

Don't knock Steve Gerber, he lived and died in Las Vegas.

Is it just me, or did anyone else ever notice a cameo of Gary Gygax in the opening credits?

You mean the guy at the back of the line around 9 seconds in?

That's it. Was it supposed to be him? Anyone know?

[Ashe Ravenheart]

Honestly don't know. Gary was pretty integral in the show's production, so I wouldn't doubt it. But there's no info on whether or not it's supposed to be him.

I would not be surprised one bit it was to have been him.
