More sad news.
Professor Muhammad Abd-al-Rahman (MAR) Barker, creator of Tekumel has passed away. RIP.
The ranks of the hobbies pioneers are thinning. |

-Never heard of him before.
-His setting sounds interesting, and really, if you look at things in the sense that Gary Gygax was very "miniature warfare games"-first and "fantasy world"-second, Mr. Barker is almost like the godfather of D&D settings. |

Aye indeed Jorkens, a pioneer of RPG's indeed and another great loss to the wider community.
Best wishes to his family and friends
