Xal’atath kidnaps content creators: A list of all known victims
BikiniBodhi
The “wind” from the Harbinger of the Void was howling during BikiniBodhi’s “This is how Sentry is breaking Rainbow Six Siege.”
Hazelnutty
Hazelnutty was snatched away by Xal’atath during her “7 things to do in The War Within pre-patch.”
Johnni Gade Gaming
Xal’atath paid Johnni Gade Gaming a sudden visit during his “Historien om spillet jeg spillede før jeg fik internet,” which can be translated roughly as “The story of the game I played before I got the internet.”
Lucky Salamander
Lucky Salamander was talking about Marvel Rivals in his “Marvel Rivals—Quebra Pau dos Heróis!!!! [PC-Gameplay 4K],” but, Xal’atath wanted to say hi:
MrGM
MrGM was kidnapped by Xal’athat during his “Earthen Allied race complete overview” on YouTube.
Platinum WoW
Platinum WoW was abducted by Xal’atath while he was talking about “all the lore you need to know” for The War Within.
Preach
Preach’s encounter with Xal’atath is one of our favorites so far! During his “How one country dominated the world—The Legacy of WoW,” Preach was briefly possessed by Xal’atath
Shilily
Special thanks to Serv, our reader on WowVendor, for sharing with us Xal’atath’s visit to Shilily, featured in the video “Lily was not supposed to show this.”
SignsofKelani
SignsofKelani was kidnapped by Xal’atath while he was telling the WoW community his “top 10 reasons to be excited for The War Within.”
Snupy
Not kidnapped, but Snupy was pretty much “creeped out” by Xal’atath.
Taliesin & Evitel
As shared by Yoloer, our reader on WowVendor, Xal’atath has also paid the gaming duo Taliesin and Evitel a visit in their “Character deletion! No banks! Everything that went wrong in pre-patch… & everything that went right.”
TimTheTatman
The reach of Xal’atath’s “kidnappings” extends beyond WoW-focused content creators. Even those who don’t typically cover WoW are being targeted. For example, TimTheTatman also got abducted during his recent stream. Well, who can blame Xal’atath? After all, he has also played WoW Classic, Hardcore, and Dragonflight:

I believe Shylily got one as well.
Hey Serv! 😊 I’m having trouble finding Shylily’s video where she gets kidnapped by Xal’atath. If you have the link, could you send it over? I’ll make sure to include it in the article and credit you. Thanks for the information and for paying our blog a visit ❤️
Sorry for the late reply, but it’s in this vid.

I’ve included Shilily’s video in the article and credited you. Thank you for sharing this with us and the WoW community! 😊
There should have been some for Nixxiom, SoulSoBreezy, and the illustrious Nobbel87.
Timthetatman played Classic on launch and for several months afterwards. Not sure why you said he only played Hardcore and Dragonflight.
Hi Xingor, thanks for catching that! This is the case where a single comma can change the whole sentence xD I’ve fixed it and thanks again for the information 😄
T&E got one in the last episode
Thank you for the information! I’ve added it to this article and credited you 😊
