Jarod Nandin cosplayed as a world of warcraft player
In his recent death, Covid-19, the deadly virus, has claimed the life of Jarod Nandin, a South Park fan and famous cosplayer. The actor, who had the twitter handle NWBZPWNR, was a popular figure in the South California cosplay scene. He was hospitalized in December following a positive test for the virus on his blood. The news was reported by the leading WoW database, Wowhead. Nandin first posted about his illness on his personal Twitter account on December 18 and again on December 23. When his bloodwork test came back positive for COVID-19, he joked about it, but it didn’t stop him from posting about it.
After his death, Jarod was widely celebrated in the World of Warcraft community, and he was also an advocate of body acceptance and positive body image. Twitter users have been holding USB sticks to remember him, and the Sword of a Thousand Truths (the iconic sword from South Park’s ‘The Simpsons’) has become a symbol of his tribute to the video game.
He won a Primetime Emmy for his performance in the episode
The episode was created by Blizzard Entertainment and the creators of South Park to poke fun at the world of video games. The episode featured a powerful player in a game whose creator devised a solution to stop him from wearing plate armor. The game developer then gave the legendary “Sword of a Thousand Truths” to another player. The episode opened the 10th season of the series and garnered 3.4 million viewers.
The award for Best Animated Program went to the South Park team. “Make Love, Not Warcraft” won the Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program, less than an hour. This episode aired on Tuesday, November 11, and the Emmys honored Stone and Parker for their work. The Emmy-winning episode also included episodes of Cartman freezing himself for the Wii and the “Go God Go” DVD set.
He summoned giant scorpions
A Southpark episode about World of Warcraft violated many game rules and limits, but the end result was hilarious nonetheless. Cartman rallies the other kids in his class to play the game, but when a griefer summons giant scorpions, they slaughter the kids’ characters and wipe them out. While most of the boys quickly quit the game, Cartman continues to play, calculating how long it would take each boy to gain enough experience points to be able to defeat the griefer.
Giant scorpions are creatures with a space of 10 feet, a range of 10 feet, and a save Fort DC of 17. They cause 1d2 Strength damage and can be cured with a successful saving throw or with a high enough constitution. Giant scorpions typically charge their prey and do damage with their venom. Their size and appearance make them popular in World of Warcraft.
He became obese
The World of Warcraft character Griefer was based on a World of Warcraft player named Leeroy Jenkins. Griefer wears a mask and has a few teeth. When Cartman smashes Griefer’s head, his teeth appear in the bloody remains. In the first episode, “Brittney’s New Look,” Griefer is less obese than in the previous episode, and he regains some weight in the second episode, “Wieners Out,” when he greets Gerald.
Jarod Nandin cosplayed the obese World of Warcraft character from the popular South Park episode. He nailed every pose and was soon known as the “South Park Guy.” Jarod Nandin became an internet sensation and a hero for the World of Warcraft community. Despite his obesity, he continues to play the game and is now known as the “South Park Guy.”
He became long-haired
The name Leroy Jenkins is a reference to the character in the popular video game World of Warcraft. The character has no hair ponytail when he first appears, and his name came from a South Park Studios FAQ around the time of the episode’s airing. In one episode, the character says “Hi Skankhunt!” to a woman, which is a reference to a quest he completed in Fort Collins.
He became acne-ridden
In mid-December, the “World of Warcraft South Park guy” revealed that he was suffering from an outbreak of the fungus Covid-19. The comedian, who plays the character known as “NWBZPWNR” in the role-playing game community, shared a picture of himself in the hospital, not seeming overly worried. The “South Park Guy” has garnered huge amounts of online attention, and his character made a splash at BlizzCon 2013.
“Make Love, Not Warcraft” is one of the most popular episodes of the show, and it features lots of references to the World of Wars craze. The episode was the eighth of the tenth season and the 147th episode overall. It won an Emmy Award for Best Animated Program in 2007 and became the show’s second overall win.
