| #1crazy_monkeyMay 11, 2013 14:33:34 | Mark "Wrecan" Monack passed away April 21st, according to this blog post by his wife. Wrecan was a pillar of this community from nearly the beginning, always helpful, always creative, always willing to speak his mind. In recent months, he regaled us with D&D Next Q&A haikus and was a player in my Tour of the Editions play-by-post games. He will be missed. |
| #2professordaddyMay 11, 2013 14:45:52 | Holy crow. Please pass on the community's sympathies to his wife and family. |
| #3truemallowmanMay 11, 2013 14:53:14 | Well, that's certainly sad tidings. Wrecan was always one of the most thoughtful and articulate posters on this forum, someone I would have loved to see in the development staff because even when he said something I didn't necessarily agree with, he always had strong rationale and a level of thought behind what he said that was...well, it was refreshing. There aren't enough people out there who are like that. He will be missed. |
| #4MiladoonMay 11, 2013 15:07:26 | Wrecan was the mightiest among us forums posters. I miss his words. |
| #5YouKnowTheOneGuyMay 11, 2013 15:17:38 | I am deeply saddened. As others have said, his passing is a huge loss to all of us. |
| #6RhennyMay 11, 2013 15:39:20 | How horrible. Wrecan will be sorely missed. All my best to his family and friends. |
| #7LordofKhyberMay 11, 2013 15:46:55 | Oh wow this really sucks. He did a lot for the community. RIP. |
| #8admcewenMay 11, 2013 15:50:20 | A sad loss for the D&D community, my thoughts are with his family. |
| #9CorranHornIsAwesomeMay 11, 2013 16:01:21 | I...I don't really know what to say. I hope he gets good rolls at the great RPG table in the sky. (Don't mean to be callous, I just hope that wherever he is, what he liked in life, RPGs, etc, will be there for him to enjoy) |
| #10MarandahirMay 11, 2013 16:28:49 | Wrecan was, quite possibly, the best of us. A man with wisdom and fun, with balance and moderation. His blogs were loved, his posts here insightful, creative, and moderate, and his leadership amongst us very evident. He brought so much joy and happiness to us fellow roleplayers. Remember Mark Monack. Remember Wrecan. We owe him that much. |
| #11ZardnaarMay 11, 2013 16:31:26 | Damn I liked Wrecan . Really puts things into perspective. |
| #12IronblueMay 11, 2013 16:52:54 | Wrecan was so well respected and liked around here... I never really spoke to him much, but I feel like I already miss him terribly. I'm glad he found time to pursue his interests and live his life, and I wish only the absolute best for his family and friends. ...If there's anything we can do as a community, I dunno. I'd be proud to help. |
| #13cassi_brazucaMay 11, 2013 17:32:39 | Wow. That was something unexpected. My sympathies for his wife, family, friends, etc… We will miss him. |
| #14EmerikolMay 11, 2013 17:53:06 | Wrecan, you will be missed. |
| #15Silver_BlazeMay 11, 2013 18:02:40 | I seriously thought I misread this at first. This is really sad. I may not have always agreed with Wrecan, but I always agreed with his general attitude he brought to the boards. |
| #16Plaguescarred1May 11, 2013 18:03:38 | Very sorry to hear : ( |
| #17ShamanstarrMay 11, 2013 18:14:28 | There are not many forum posters I think that would be totally missed in a forum structure like this, my own self sadly included in that list, however, I think wrecan is one of the exceptions. I think I've seen him quoted in more signature files, and agreed with him more than not, and respected him in disagreement more than just about any others. RIP Wrecan, you indeed will be missed |
| #18strider1276May 11, 2013 18:25:47 | I am absolutely floored. He was a great guy, always articulate and with logical, well thought-out arguments. He will indeed be missed. RIP wrecan. |
| #19AbdulAlhazredMay 11, 2013 18:31:16 | That's really too bad. He made a lot of really good contributions to the community here. Can't say he was always the easiest guy on the boards to get along with, but he always had something good to contribute, and pitched in on a lot of stuff. I'll remember him for a long time. |
| #20The_JesterMay 11, 2013 19:27:22 | Words fail. He was always full of wise feedback. I always read his comments. More than once I read a thread just because he deemed it worthy of commenting on first. I valued his opinion. He was truly the best of us and the forums are diminished by his absence. We should all be a little more Wrecan. |
| #21alienuxMay 11, 2013 19:29:09 | I didn't have a lot of interaction with him, but the little bit that I did were always good posts and discussions. Praying for the family. |
| #22The_JesterMay 11, 2013 19:36:50 | Don't forget to check out Unearthed Wrecan and enjoy the man's work. |
| #23EmerikolMay 11, 2013 19:38:57 | I've been thinking since this got posted. Why don't those of us with fond memories of wrecan, go out and buy one (or more) D&D next player hand books and donate them to a needy kid in his name. Why not just write on the inside cover - donated in memory of wrecan? I think I will do this. |
| #24chuck80May 11, 2013 19:49:35 | My sincere condolences to the family. You will be missed Wrecan. ![]() |
| #25bawylieMay 11, 2013 20:06:20 | Nothing I can add that's worthy of the man. I'll raise a glass, say a prayer more or less for his soul, and keep him in mind when I roll a d20 or write a haiku. |
| #26OrzelMay 11, 2013 20:23:35 | I do not know the words to describe the shock. I've enjoyed his writings and the discussions we've had here on these forums and blogs. He will be missed. My condolences to his family. RIP. |
| #27ren1999May 11, 2013 20:47:44 | He was published in Dragon Magazine. He always provided me personally with constructive criticism without making it personal. Even though I only knew him on the forum, he will be missed. |
| #28crazy_monkeyMay 11, 2013 20:51:05 | This was Wrecan's article in Dragon, published April 1st, 2013. Queen of the Interwebz Pits |
| #29The_JesterMay 11, 2013 21:02:48 | This was Wrecan's article in Dragon, published April 1st, 2013. He also wrote Tutorial: Terrain Powers. He wrote about his family a few times in his blogs. He's survived by his wife and three children, the youngest turns two in a couple months. I am saddened. |
| #30HowndawgMay 11, 2013 21:11:54 | Sad to see him go. One of the most polite, prolific, and insightful people on the board. Will miss seeing the lizard man avatar myself. |
| #31Darth_JerrodMay 11, 2013 21:54:29 | This really saddens me. |
| #32BlakestoneMay 11, 2013 22:00:34 | RIP . I always enjoyed reading what he had to say |
| #33WarrantMay 11, 2013 22:04:13 | I was just thinking I hadn't seen him on the forum lately. He was intelligent, articulate, and loved the hobby. What a great guy. Wrecan always put a lot of time and effort into making D&D accessible to new players, and had great ideas for veterans. Wrecan will be missed. |
| #34Plaguescarred1May 11, 2013 22:32:47 | You know what would be cool? That the next Player's Handbook 1st page says somewhere in the credits; Dedicated to the memory of Mark "Wrecan" Monack |
| #35Vinicius_ZoioMay 11, 2013 22:40:12 | Rest in peace Wrecan. You will be missed. ![]() |
| #36Xeviat-DMMay 11, 2013 22:40:25 | Dungeons and Dragons F.A.Q.'s won't be the same Wrecan will be missed My poor attempt. |
| #37thestriderMay 11, 2013 22:52:09 | Even though I never met him in person, I feel great sadness at his passing. My condolences. |
| #38BaronDmDadMay 11, 2013 23:02:30 | You know what would be cool? Yes, this. Condolences and prayers to his family and friends. |
| #39trebor_rjfMay 12, 2013 0:00:43 | he made the game and these forums better through his hard work and thoughtful approach to posting. the boards won't be the same without him. |
| #40ShamanstarrMay 12, 2013 0:16:51 | *plays lute and sings softly* 'Gather and hear about Wrecan, an adventurer without compare, there's a spot around the fire, and we miss you when your not there, your ideas they inspire, your presence we will mourn, but worry not, for those you leave behind, do not sit about forlorn, we adventure on, in your name, our goal as bright as the sun, a quest that is neither meek nor tame, but the eternal need for FUN!' Ode to Wrecan May 12th, 2013 |
| #41quantumsunshineMay 12, 2013 0:18:33 | Wow. Out of everyone here Wrecan was one of the posters I always enjoyed reading even if I disagreed. You will be missed and my condolences to his family. |
| #42Storyteller-ZeroMay 12, 2013 0:53:30 | From what I've read from his posts, he seemed like a cool guy. From how much this loss has affected the community, he was definitely a cool guy who is surely missed. |
| #43NautilusMay 12, 2013 0:56:53 | It didn't take me long to figure out that if a post had Wrecan's name attached, it was worth stopping and reading what he had to say. Wrecan had extensive D&D knowledge and laid out his opinions in a lucid, engaging manner. My occasional visits to Unearthed Wrecana showed his analytical approach and the depth of caring he had for the game and his fellow gamers. I doubt D&D would have lasted 40 years without the enthusiasm, dedication and spirit of sharing that gamers like Mark Monack have had. Yes, a dedication to him in the final product would be ideal, and after reading Mike Mearls' tweets on Wrecan's passing, I'm confident he would be on board with this. |
| #44ShiroikenMay 12, 2013 1:45:40 | We are all greater for having known him, even if only online. He will be missed ![]() |
| #45Alter_BoyMay 12, 2013 2:18:41 | I don't think I've been this moved by something on the forums since Foxface's car accident. To his widow: I hope that he didn't suffer. To him: Godspeed. |
| #46pauln6May 12, 2013 2:40:31 | Wrecan was cool. I really enjoyed his debates. Genuinely, I will miss him. Condolences to his wife and family. If love is the greatest force in the world And God is love How can love ever die? And so we go on From day to day From year to year From life to life No curtain falls. |
| #47WhiteHarnessMay 12, 2013 4:54:34 | Wow. Out of everyone here Wrecan was one of the posters I always enjoyed reading even if I disagreed. You will be missed and my condolences to his family. I share this sentiment. |
| #48GarthanosMay 12, 2013 6:08:49 | Wrecan's blog was perhaps the main reason I joined this community, saying he is and will be missed is innadequate, he is one of those who worried when I went on a rant... I... wish the best to those who loved him. |
| #82zombie_babiesMay 13, 2013 8:00:59 | Wow, that's terrible news. The community has truly lost one of the best. |
| #83GilbertMDHMay 13, 2013 8:04:06 | I have been scarce on the forum recently because work has been very busy, so I am just now reading this sad news. I have only been here for about a year, and he quickly rose to the top of my "must read" list because of his thoughtfulness, insight, positive attitude, and dedication to making D&D fun for all. My condolences to his friends and family as they deal with their loss. |
| #84MaxpersonMay 13, 2013 9:15:30 | Mark and I often disagreed on things, but whether we agreed or disagreed, I greatly respected him and his opinion. He was one of a small handful of people here that I highly respected. He will be sorely missed. |
| #85MithrusMay 13, 2013 10:17:59 | Could there be a "Wrecan Game Day" in his honor once 5e launches? I don't think there can be too much tribute to give him for his contributions. |
| #86ShamanstarrMay 13, 2013 11:29:36 | I second the Wrecan Game Day, and make it a Lizard Folk themed adventure maybe...going in to protect persecuted lizardfolk followers of the forgotten Saurian God Wrecan from their more bloodthirsty kin perchance? Maybe rescue the holy script the Libram Wrecana from the dark Lizard Gods? Wrecan will be sorely missed! |
| #87melloredMay 13, 2013 11:55:19 | Wrecan should definatly the good god of civilization for lizard folk and kobolds. His primary tenant is "Do not attack on sight". |
| #88JenksMay 13, 2013 11:56:11 | Oh wow. Life is trully too short. |
| #89WotC_TrevorMay 13, 2013 12:01:54 | I really don't have the words here. Wrecan was an awesome force here, often sharing insights whether it be in supportive posts, constructive criticism, or just cool things to add to the game and the community. And yeah, I loved the haikus too. I have a lot of respect for the guy and his absence will defenitely be felt here. To Jodie - Thank you for sharing this with us, and I'm very sorry for your loss. To Everyone Else - It's heartwarming to see all these kind words for Mark. Thanks for being so awesome. To Mark - I looked forward to reading your posts, blogs and all the other conversations we had. You were one of the best of us and I already miss you man. |
| #90PhobosMay 13, 2013 14:33:39 | I am in shock and so sorry to hear this. For all the jesting I gave on the haiku and their absence of late, I was not aware when I asked "where are they" of this tragedy. |
| #91DragonetteMay 13, 2013 14:38:53 | Terrible, sad news. Good luck to his family, and gratitude for his contributions to our community. |
| #92Mournblade94May 13, 2013 15:17:40 | He will be missed. His poor wife, I wish her the best. One of the best writers on the forum. you never know who you can lose. I shall be going home to hug my wife for many many minutes. I never let a morning go by before I leave for work that i do not tell her how much I love her. One just never knows. Godspeed. |
| #93PromMay 13, 2013 16:07:08 | I didn't know the man well, but I've been waiting for his Blog "Heroes of Blogging" to be released, as I do each month. His impact on me and the community is significant. I'll miss his words and humour. Thank you Wrecan. |
| #94LordManshoonMay 13, 2013 18:17:49 | I posted in a couple other threads, but I'll add it here - Wrecan was a pillar of the community here, and we were lucky to have such an awesome person contributing to the boards. He will be sorely missed, and I'll keep him in my thoughts. I definitely support the ideas of Wrecan Game Day and a dedication to him in the 5E books when they hit print. |
| #95WebsterMay 13, 2013 20:44:11 | To say he'll be missed is an understatment. I've seen people disagree with him, but I've never seen him be disagreeable. I've never seen anyone have any animosity towards him either. It took me a long time to type Wrecan rather than Werecan. ![]() |
| #96bone_nagaMay 13, 2013 21:33:13 | What a huge loss for the community. He was one of the more level-headed posters around here. He offered advice to many a person and shared tons of great ideas, more than a few of which I shamelessly stole for my own games. He will most certainly be missed. Sadly, a few words in a forum post doesn't begin to do justice to the contributions that he made around here. Best wishes for his family. |
| #97OskarOisinsonMay 14, 2013 0:29:23 | The only person I subscribed to on here. I had hoped to see him pulled into the design team eventually. I am so grateful for his contributions and even-handed approach in all things. It is a true tragedy that the world is deprived of such a person. |
| #98DoctorNecroticMay 14, 2013 0:51:26 | From the few times I did bump into him on thread or via private message, he was the coolest dude ever, one of the rare few on the forums that never losed his cool. He was the model poster, indeed. In fact, he's a good chunk of the reason I want to build my own game. He even gave me a bit of encouragement to do it. He'll certainly be missed. I really wish the best for his family. |
| #99CatoblepiMay 14, 2013 4:08:49 | Didn't know him personally, but I can see he was a prolific writer and a family-man. Condolences to his dear family. Wrecan has gained immortality through the impact he's had on this game (and all of us) we love so much. He drinks with the Gods in their mead hall. Hail and farewell! Im also going to voice my support, now, on some kind of remembrance, either in the upcoming books and/or putting his name on an official event. |
| #100Olrox17May 14, 2013 7:17:39 | Saw a post in the order of the stick forums...rip wrecan. I hoped it wasn't the same person, but it is. He was the best poster on this board and i'm sure he was an awesome guy. We'll miss him. |
| #101arderkragMay 14, 2013 8:53:40 | Wrecan was the best of us, I think. Everything will seem a little dimmer here for a while. |
| #102erleniMay 14, 2013 9:08:45 | Wrecan was the best of us, I think. Everything will seem a little dimmer here for a while. It will. |
| #103BrightmantleMay 14, 2013 12:09:04 | To wrecans family and friends, I am sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and yours. He will be missed. |
| #104Asmodius_MidiEvilMay 14, 2013 23:26:55 | Condolences to all who knew him. I merely knew his posts, and was impressed. His input will be missed...I can't say much that hasn't been said here already. I would like to throw my support toward any in-game memorial, especially the Lizardfolk God notion... |
| #105THEMNGMNTMay 14, 2013 23:34:30 | Wrecan was, quite possibly, the best of us. A man with wisdom and fun, with balance and moderation. His blogs were loved, his posts here insightful, creative, and moderate, and his leadership amongst us very evident. He brought so much joy and happiness to us fellow roleplayers. Well put. Thanks. |
| #106AlphastreamMay 15, 2013 0:03:45 | Though it has been painful to think about his passing over these days, it has been really uplifting to see the community come together. I hope we can all be inspired by him to work to improve the Community, keep it positive, work together, and help others. |
| #107HaldrikMay 15, 2013 3:19:23 | Mark "Wrecan" Monack passed away April 21st, according to this blog post by his wife. I cant believe it. I am so sorry to hear Wrecan passed away. I will miss him. He is such a vivid presence in this community. I am sorry for the loss for all of us. |
| #108I_smile_alotMay 15, 2013 5:17:35 | When I saw the post regarding Wrecan's death tears came to my eyes, and I'm crying still as I write this. I did not know him at all, only his blogs and his insights which I looked forward to. Did I agree with him? Not always. Did I appreciate his thoughtfullness, his insights, his reasoning and his willingness to listen to others views? Absolutely yes! I've written to him several times throughout the years regarding about his writings, a blog I thought worth promoting and ideas I wanted his thoughts on. And I always found him to be kind, patient and thoughtful. I still have an email in my in-box on how to make a piece-work army when I wrote to him asking on specifics of the conversion. And I'm sure many others have very similar stories of a man who was generous with his time. I know that his promotion of others through his monthly Heroes of Blogging will be missed as it truly and very generously encouraged the community to promote and share not just their ideas, but to improve the game and the community as a whole. I can't imagine the loss to his family and their suffering right now, but I do know that all our lives were richer for him, and all our lives will be a bit dimmer without him. May all the wonderful memories not just of gaming, but of family times spent together be brought closer to them to comfort them in their loss. |
| #109LordArchaonMay 15, 2013 17:40:15 | I've never, ever been so sad and touched by the death of a person i had never met in life. Wrecan was without a doubt the single person in the community who motivated me the most in the hobby, and not only, always giving my blog posts visibility among his (purely altruistic) Heroes of Blogging series, and also two annual awards. I was hoping he would have joined at least as a consultant the design & development team, because he was so brilliant in his ideas that, with his additions, he truly created a better game than what the designers had. |
| #110kenthorMay 15, 2013 18:54:57 | I'm mostly just a lurker here, but I just have to say Wrecan's words were always well worth reading. Sincere condolences to his family. |
| #111PinkRoseMay 15, 2013 19:33:44 | I am sorry for your loss. Wrecan was a great addition to our community and he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers with you and your family. |
| #112VeritatisMay 15, 2013 21:04:47 | Dungeons & Dragons, both game and community, is mourning the death of Mark/Wrecan, a very active and inventive player and DM. As LordArchaon said in his eulogy, I've never been so sad for the passing away of someone I didn't meet in person. Heroes of Blogging, the Expert DungeonMaster Competition and more than 17,000 forum posts, every single one of them filled with ideas and positive vibes encouraging creative process are but the iceberg top of his legacy. Wrecan est mort, vive Wrecan. |
| #113DoctorBadWolfMay 15, 2013 23:28:09 | Dammit. He will be missed. |
| #114GloriousDemonMay 15, 2013 23:46:32 | You're in our thoughts and prayers, Wrecan & Family. |
| #115lawrencehoyMay 16, 2013 0:01:37 | I will miss his posts. My prayers and condolences to his wife and daughters...and, Jodie, anytime you you need DM advice, the community will be here for you. |
| #116rampantMay 16, 2013 0:13:56 | My best wishes to his friends and family. |
| #117Ragnar_LodbrokMay 16, 2013 0:29:09 | That is... unfortunate. |
| #118The_SilverswordMay 16, 2013 0:45:01 | To say he'll be missed is an understatment. Totally, he was a class act. And yeah I always read it as Werecan as well. |
| #119MacEochaidMay 16, 2013 0:59:55 | One of the things as WotC moves forward with 5e is their struggle to meet many different playstyles. I was VERY critical of Wrecan's hyper symmetrical aesthetic. That said when he thanked me for an idea on his Weapon Design forum I could not be more proud. Wrecan was the best of trying to understand how different playstyles work, and in a community whose opinions can so quickly turn to aggression, his blog posts were always polite, thoughtful, and measured. I will definitely miss him. |
| #120sjapMay 16, 2013 4:35:13 | Condoleances to his family & friends. Wrecan will hugely be missed! R.I.P. |
| #121drowMay 16, 2013 11:14:29 | all condolences, etc. |
| #122manduckMay 16, 2013 11:19:11 | My condolences to his Wrecan's family and friends. He was a valuable member of this community. His insight and passion for our shared hobby was amazing. Not to mention he was always polite and friendly. I'm sorry to hear of his passing. |
| #123LupusRegalisMay 16, 2013 17:34:21 | I didn't know much about him, but I did read what he posted. I liked a lot of what he said, his posts made you think even if you didn't agree with him. His blogs were well written and a great resource. I'm saddened to hear of his passing. My condolences to his family and friends. |
| #124Seeker95May 16, 2013 18:02:41 | I came back on the Boards when I heard this. wrecan made life bearable here when things got rough. He will be missed by this community. He and his family have my prayers. |
| #125davidgivenMay 16, 2013 18:23:43 | I always loved his Heros of Blogging. I would leave a comment thanking him for it every month. He would often drop me a quick note with some funny little thing in it. I will miss this man & his sense of humor. He contributed a lot of great stuff and will be missed by many. Thoughts and Prayers to his wife and children. |
| #126Kilsek_of_SheverashMay 16, 2013 21:39:56 | Wrecan was, quite possibly, the best of us. A man with wisdom and fun, with balance and moderation. His blogs were loved, his posts here insightful, creative, and moderate, and his leadership amongst us very evident. He brought so much joy and happiness to us fellow roleplayers. Wrecan was one of the best posters and newer article contributors to the boards and D&D - he wrote thoughtful, creative stuff. I'm stunned and saddedned at the news - he will be missed. |
| #127Mr_MiscellanyMay 17, 2013 11:33:48 | Very sad to hear this news. I didn't always agree with Wrecan, but it was hard not to respect him and all the good work he did around here. |
| #128Talaeden_DenthiirMay 18, 2013 17:02:46 | will definately miss one of the most: insightful, tactful, inspirational, keeping it real forum posters, on the net. It's hard to put into words the emotion I'm feeling right now. I can't believe he passed. It seems like just the other day i was reading one of his blogs.Wrecan, espero que vayas con Díos jugando el D&D, eseñando, disfrutando, guiando nos con tu corazón sabía del rol. Echo de menos amigo mio. Paz. -Teo |
| #129Dougan_AxehammerMay 20, 2013 0:18:42 | As a man of few words, it is difficult for me to express my sympathies. My condolences to you Traderjodie, and to your children. Wrecan will be very missed. He was and always shall be my friend. He was very insightful, and his support of this game was unparallelled on these boards. But, I'd like to think of him as participating in the greatest LARPing session in existence. He can borrow my axe till I get there. |
| #130Slagger_the_ChuulMay 20, 2013 0:28:00 | I'll admit I wasn't often sharing the same space on the boards, but what I remember was good. May he be remembered well. |
| #131EscefMay 20, 2013 18:00:48 | I've stayed clear of the D&D sections of the boards ever since the edition war foolishness drove me away. But I still recall Wrecan as one of "the names". One of those people that I, agree with or not, respected. I hope the grieving for his friends and family is as graceful a process as possible. |
| #132SpacyRicochetMay 29, 2013 13:57:37 | My condolences to his family and friends. And to everyone here that will miss him. I didn't interact often with him, but I always enjoyed anything he participated in. |
| #133OgiwanJun 03, 2013 8:50:19 | I just saw this, and I'm more than a little flattened. Wrecan was one poster who I would always pay the utmost attention and respect to, since he always wrote with respect, wit, and class. The boards are diminished for his loss. |
| #134AH_schulertaJun 10, 2013 10:10:01 | Sad news. Anyone know what happened? |
| #135VoyRagerJun 10, 2013 21:29:35 | He definitely will be miss by me here at the WotC for he is one of the members that I saw and thought of as one of the core contributors that made this great forum and to see that he was as appreciated by others here as I am is also appreciated. Good-bye, Wrecan, you will always be remembered. Show Thank you Crazy_Monkey for this thread. |
| #136drnickJun 14, 2013 23:46:16 | I don't post here anymore but I want to say goodbye to Wrecan and condolences to his family. He was always someone I looked forward to interracting with on these boards and his creativity and intelligence shone through just about every post he made here. Good bye. |
| #137incenjucarJun 28, 2013 0:55:11 | I was deeply saddened to run across this news. Wrecan was a joy to butt heads with, and one had to respect his passion for the game and for adding to it to spread happiness to others. A terrible loss for family and friends, and for the community. |
| #138RadperTJun 30, 2013 20:52:26 | Just a thought: The Wrecan is a shapeshifter which takes the form of a lizardfolk. Only lizardfolk and those well-versed in the race's mannerisms can recognize the transformed Wrecan, with a contest of Wis vs. Cha to bluff. Wrecans are neutral and avoid situations which might cause their condition to be revealed. Although their stealth ability is minimal, lone Wrecans often choose to ambush an individual, relying on their patience and ability to remain still for long periods of time. Once a Wrecan has bitten its target it is unlikely to relent, unless it knows the victim and feels the individual would become a suitable Wrecan. AC: 13 (leather) HP: 15 (2d10 + 4) Senses: low-light vision 30 Movement: 30 Attacks Multiattack: one bite attack and one claws attack Multiattack: one bite attack and two dagger attacks Bite: +4, 1d4 piercing and lycanthropy Claws: +3, 1d8 slashing Dagger: +4, 1d4 piercing Interaction Favor: negotiation Disaffectation: has bitten target Avoidance: lizardfolk, discovery |

| #140roninfrostyAug 01, 2013 17:03:40 | I've been away from the forums for quite a while, having been with my girlfriend through a pregnancy and the birth of our beautiful little girl. I came back today to see what had changed with the packets, and popped on the forums to see what the people I follow had written lately. Wrecan was the first tab I opened, and was immediately floored to see he'd passed. I know this is late, but my thoughts are with his family. Hopefully the pain has lessened, but I hope his memory is as strong as ever. |
| #141Plaguescarred1Aug 19, 2013 10:31:10 | Its cool to hear WoTC did a little nod by naming a lizardfolk NPC in Ghost of Dragpnspear castle module after Wrecan! I was one of the DnD All Access judges (The ones who ran all of Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle) and I have to say. I love the fact that Wrecan was one of the NPCs. That was awesome. ![]() Cool! What Race/Class was he? He was a lizardfolk advisor being held captive by a bad guy. In the mod he was really just a side note but I made him pretty integral to the plot for my table. |

| #144ValdarkOct 04, 2013 14:31:16 | Wow, I'm saddened by this.
Having discussed this playtest extensively with him I found him to be a generally good conversationalist with a strong grasp of and love for the game.
Although I'm late in discovering this and did not always agree with him I will definitely miss his addition to the game and his insight. |
