Every five years, Blizzard gives their employees a special award for their service.
During the Christmas Holiday 2012 party held last night, Blizzard Entertainment executive art director Nick Carpenter unveiled the 20th Year Employee Award given to all veteran employees.
Nick, who oversees the awesome cinematics department, designed the award dubbed "The Crown of Eternal Dedication".
The award is manufactured by WETA Workshop, the New Zealand-based company that produces the weapons, armor and vehicles for Lord of the Rings Trilogy and James Cameron's Avatar film.
Nick Carpenter sent Blizzplanet a screenshot of the 3D file, and the final WETA product.
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Danish from eXputer: "Despite Blizzard's attempt to give a fresh new spin to World of Warcraft, some fans still seem to be stuck in the past."
HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
