Hey, for anyone who has heard The Dead Alewives "Dungeons and Dragons", you should recognize this name. Its pretty funny stuff, and its way out of the way, so I doubt many have seen it. It probably has been posted, but eh, I'll give it a shot:

For those of us who don't or didn't play D&D, could you explain the significance of this name?

Its not about playing D&D, its a comedy sketch making fun of D&D players. You might have heard it, they always are like "Hey, can I have a Mountain Dew?". Galstaff, Sorcerer of Light was one of the guys' characters. Its not particularly funny if you haven't seen it, but regardless, its awesome that NCSoft put it in there.

"D&D part 1" is where it came from, its a stream.

Anet makes all of the game's content (including this tidbit), balancing, etc.
NCSoft does everything else needed to make the game a success. (Funds it, distributes it, etc.)

*Back on Topic*

Nice Easter egg. It is good to know that the devs have a sense of humor.

Man, I knew I was going to get called on that. I was unsure which one it was, so I guessed. Oh well.
