Johnny Awesome
Last wiki revision 2023-08-25
Johnny Awesome is a blood elf hunter who has a spirit beast frostsaber called Dazzle for a pet. He used to ride a celestial steed named Twinkles, and now rides Invincible's Reins which he has named Spooky.
Johnny participated in the raid on the Black Temple with his guild Uber Town, though he was AFK while the rest of his guild fought Illidan Stormrage.
Johnny went to the Hillsbrad Foothills ready for adventure but later became disheartened in the Sludge Fields. He could be found crying next to Apothecary Lydon, who considered Johnny's presence a form of torture.
When Lydon was freed, Johnny refused to be left behind and decided to avenge the death of Twinkles. He was later found at the Steam Pools resort, relaxing and mourning his horse. Johnny was also one of the dozens of past NPCs encountered by adventurers to assist in killing the elementals at Sethria's Roost. Johnny was also part of the Thrall's Thrashers and was seen AFK in the Molten Front.
Johnny, with a new relic armor, appeared in the garrison inn on.
Johnny alongside his companion Dazzle fought in the Brawler's Guild. Despite killing the Lich King, he did not loot Invincible's Reins, so the Postmaster sent an adventurer to retrieve it and deliver it to Johnny at the Steam Pools resort. Once there Johnny revealed that he had not "forgotten" to loot Invincible, he had simply left it behind because he had already gotten the mount the week before (and named it Spooky). After telling the adventurer to sell the second Invincible for some gold for him, Johnny then gives them the honor of delivering Twinkles' favorite toy, Mimiron's Head, to his former horse's grave.
Johnny visited Everywhen Inn in Thaldraszus in search of a quest and rewards. Impatient as ever, the quest giver sent him on a mission through a time rift.

Johnny Awesome is a rank 2 opponent.
Johnny will stay fixed in his spawning position, while his pet Dazzle will harass the player. Dazzle is susceptible to all of Johnny's attacks, including Volley and Powershot. It's imperative to keep Dazzle between Johnny and the player while Johnny is winding up a Powershot. Should Dazzle die for any reason, Johnny will stop what he's doing and cast Revive Pet, which lasts for 15 seconds. Use this opportunity to unload.
- Steam Pools gossip
- Are you looking at me? Yes, look at me. You should be looking at me. Are you? Looking at me? Good.
- Twinkles! Why did it have to be twinkles?
You may inspect me from the maximum distance only.
- Garrison gossip
- Before, despite being a male, both Warden Stillwater and Apothecary Lydon called Johnny a girl or "Jenny". While Stillwater's insanity could contribute to him calling Johnny a girl, it is possible that Lydon found Johnny's manner of speaking about Twinkles as one would a doll and crying over its death girlish, or blood elves' (lack of) masculinity as part of a running gag with Blizzard.
- As of Shadowlands, Stillwater describes Johnny as "True perfection. The way his blond locks framed his perfect blood elf face... Such strength."
- If you lead Johnny to where Twinkles is "planted", he will scream like a girl.
- Based on Welcome to the Machine, Johnny Awesome is a caricature of alt characters that have been "twinked" out in heirloom items, making them considerably more powerful than their level would indicate and giving them an outsized sense of power and entitlement.
- His guild name is as obnoxious and arrogant as he is.
- It appears he was planned to appear in Battle for Azeroth with a new armor and the title.
