[BLOG] Robin Williams NPC could be a genie

Last week Blizzard responded to a fan-made petition, asking if Robin Williams, who had recently died, could be paid tribute to by adding an NPC that would utter some of the comedian's best jokes. Now some datamined files from the latest beta build have thrown up some character models that could become that NPC.



Chief among them of course is a genie to pay homage of one of Williams' best known roles, especially around children of the 90s who grew up loving his voice role as the Genie in Disney's Aladdin. The NPC is tagged as "Robin the Entertainer" and people have pointed out that as a genie he could very well be able to shape-shift into other forms. A human female form and human male form have also been found, both potentially linked to the new NPC and speculated to be tributes to Mrs Doubtfire and Mork respectively.



Other details are so far unknown, and as of writing Blizzard has not confirmed that the datamined characters are to be the tribute NPC in question.
