I'm saddened to report that Lynn Willis recently passed away.
Willis was co-author of The Call of Cthulhu, and helped to shape many other RPG lines, including Stormbringer and Elric!.
Here is a brief statement from Chaosium. And my friend Lawrence Whitaker remembers his interactions with Willis here.
AKRATIC WIZARDRY: A blog wherein I scribble about role-playing games (Mythras, Against the Darkmaster, Dungeons & Dragons [esp. old school], Swords & Wizardry, Into the Unknown, Middle-earth Role-playing, Lord of the Rings Role-playing, Adventures in Middle-Earth, Crypts & Things, Call of Cthulhu, etc.) and RPG settings (Middle-earth, Cthulhu Mythos, Greyhawk, Lyonesse, Ukrasia, etc.). I also write about fantasy and science-fiction films, novels, art, TV shows, and the like.
