Many of us probably dream of being able to make our own quests for World of Warcraft. For others, the dream is to become a powerful character within the game to earn the admiration of your peers. For even more people, the dream is to go into the furthest depths of the game, seeing everything the game has to offer.
Well, for one young gamer, the Make-A-Wish Foundation made it all come true.
Ezra Chatterton, you see, has a brain tumor. For him, however, all he wanted to do while in the hospital was play WoW. The Make a Wish Foundation managed to help him out, and Blizzard made him part of their development team for one whole day.
What did he get to do? Besides getting his character bumped up to level 70 and stocked with the best armor and weapons in the game, he sat beside Jeff Kaplan and created a new weapon (a legendary flame-firing crossbow!) and a new quest line. He also immortalized his dog Kyle in the quest line he designed. Being turned into a temporary GM who can fly and death touch Black Temple bosses like Supremus was also a big plus.
Of course, his dream is to come back some day and work for Blizzard as a developer and play tester. As tiring as the day was for him, it filled him up with hope, and that's a BOP item that everyone deserves to have in their inventory. Hopefully, he'll be able to come back and fulfill his new dream as well.
