World of Warcraft Fan Shows Up In Cataclysm

Blizzard fan and lore nerd known only as “Red Shirt Guy” has been immortalised in the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion, Cataclysm. It all started at the lore Q&A panel at this year’s BlizzCon when a fan (in a red shirt) stood up and questioned the Blizzard lore panel.

The question was, “where is Falstad Wildhammer in Cataclysm?” Falstad a pivotal character in the novelised lead up to the Cataclysm had been left out of Azeroth’s makeover. The panel promised a fix and it has come rather swiftly with Falstad showing up in the latest beta update. Falstad however is not alone. A Wildhammer fact checker complete with red shirt has been placed next to the previously missing Falstad, in a fitting tribute to a brave fan.

It is pretty cool that Blizzard have taken measures to tribute such a knowledgeable and faithful fan.
