It's a sad day for the World of Warcraft community indeed, as it has been revealed that popular cosplayer Jarod Nandin has passed away aged 40 after battling with Covid-19.
Nandin was known for his portrayal of Jenkins, a character from the South Park World of Warcraft episode that ends up going on an unstoppable killing rampage. He first caught the attention of fans at Blizzcon 2013, where he participated as the character within a cosplay event. A video of him in his cosplay costume on YouTube, which was uploaded back in 2013, is currently sitting at 13 million views.
Our hearts go out to both the community and Nandin's family during this difficult time.
Thanks, PC Gamer.
