Eyonix was a Community Manager at Blizzard Entertainment, specifically for the US World of Warcraft forums. He was born August 12, 1979.[1] Eyonix left Blizzard on April 2, 2010.
Eyonix, the innkeeper of the Stormspire, is named after him.
Leaving Blizzard[]
Eyonix announced his departure from Blizzard with the following message on the US official forums:
- For nearly six years, we've shared our thoughts with one and other, we've laughed, we've argued, and we've cried -- the crying part was just me wasn't it? Those times, I'm afraid must come to an end as I've made the decision to explore opportunities outside of Blizzard.
- It has very honestly been a huge pleasure, and I thank you all for allowing 'Eyonix' to always remain a very fond memory as I move on.[2]
The reason that Eyonix gave for resigning as a Community Manager was that, "Sometimes the hedgehog, is not really a hedgehog, but actually the single most powerful, immutable force on Earth. Understand now?".[3] (Citation failed verification) His comment about "hedgehogs" may be implying he left to go work at SEGA, although the reference to power and immutability is more suggestive of Mona Doyle, a goddess of hedgehogs in Neil Gaiman's Lucifer comics.
Notes[]
A poster on the forums once complained about the drop rate for 
[Emerald Whelpling], to which Eyonix sympathized and related killing over 2000 whelplings in the Wetlands for 
[Tiny Crimson Whelpling], during which time a "friend from work got one his first kill [sic]." The friend posted right after Eyonix, and turned out to be Bornakk.[4]
