Greyseer of
Lorecrafted posted
this cute little version (that site there is slow, but don't worry, we've mirrored all the pictures for you to browse through below, so don't take bandwidth from there if you don't have to) of
the Old God of Death the other day, and he's just about as adorable as an ancient, malevolent deity can get. For some reason,
Blizzard's new big bad has captured the fascination of their fans, and Greyseer has chosen a cloth-based representation of the fearsome creature.
He says he only had the patience to make about five maw/eyes, and the fabric he used for Yoggy's belly has hearts on it, but we think that just adds to the charm. His little flipper/tentacle hands are great, too, and Greyseer calls the plush a "prototype," so maybe more are on the way. We're constantly amazed at what you players
can do with some fabric and thread -- keep these plushy bad guys coming!

Oh wow! I never expected an inside-joke with the Twitterati to make it to the front page of WoW Insider.
That's great. :)

Ahh! So cute. I want to cuddle it! Nice job Grayseer!

It really brings out the MADNESS and INSANITY of him.

Madness and anguish.
Oh no, I do believe that's my last point of sanity leaving me.

I'm pretty sure World of Warcraft, Eh? was the original designer.

o^_^o;
It started as a fun and silly idea within the depths of the WoW twitterati, but @greyseer was the one to put the time, effort and energy into making him real.
Greyseer's my friend, and it was a real honor to see such a frivolous idea come to life. :D ♥
BTW - Anyone want to follow Yoggy on Twitter? He's @yoggsaron. :3
