What about Jim Ward? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawmij He's got a lot more eponymous spells. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.31.142.252 (talk) 03:02, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the "Nystul's Magic Aura" spell, according to Gary Gygax, who invented the spell for the 1st edition AD&D Player's Handbook, it was named after stage magician Brad Nystul, not after Mike Nystul (regardless of what he himself might have said in the Dragon magazine article previously referenced). See http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?22566-Q-amp-A-with-Gary-Gygax/page54 and http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=3820 for Gygax's account of the origin of the spell name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greyhawk Grognard (talkcontribs) 16:00, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
