Edit: His name is actually Flintlocke now! Huzzah!

The Alliance version of this follower, Fargo Hammersmith, bears a suspicious resemblance to Fargo Flintlocke from the webcomic Flintlocke's Guide to Azeroth. His appearance, class and first name all match Flintlocke's. Searching for Flintlocke on Wowhead will also include this character in the results. An npc actually named Fargo Flintlocke plays a major role in some Alliance quests in Twilight Highlands.

I have found a number of other followers based on the main characters from Flintlocke's Guide to Azeroth and Flintlocke vs. the Horde, most of which use the same names as the characters they are based on.

"Doc" Sweitzer is apparently available to both Horde and Alliance, which is appropriate as he is an Alliance character who somehow joined a Horde guild. The Alliance also has Bloodrose and Kathrena Winterwisp. Stingratchet looks pretty much exactly like Lowping, and also shows up as a result on a search for "Lowping". Kathrena also appears as a questgiver in Darkshore.

The Horde has Cheri, Gravy and Rok'tar. Gravy has also been working at the inn in the Valley of Honor since Cataclysm came out. Like Flintlocke, Rok'tar also has a tribute npc in Twilight Highlands, though the player has much less interaction with him than with Flintlocke. Calder Gray appears multiple times in Cataclysm content and bears a strong resemblance to the unnamed shadow priest in Flintlocke vs. the Horde (who was nicknamed "Bubbles" by the comic's fans).

Both comics were created by Dave "Fargo" Kosak, who now works at Blizzard as the Lead Narrative Designer for World of Warcraft. They were originally posted on GameSpy, which has since been taken down.

Edit: The comics are no longer only available via Wayback Machine! The comics have been reposted at:

Why the hell is this guy a protection warrior, and not a marksman hunter? He even has a gun and a scope named after him!

For those of you trying to find out how to obtain this follower, through all the interesting facts,and information of what these followers were created from. I have found one thing that shows how to obtain this follower,

Blizzard and Community References in WoW.

STOP!

Before you click on that link and get lost in all the interesting facts that link has to offer, about half way down that link has this statement; "Many followers that can be recruited from the Inn are references to Flintlocke:" following that statement is 8 followers including this one. only "Doc" Schweitzer can be a follower to both the horde and the alliance factions. So in my assumption is that you must have an inn to be able to recruit any of the 8 followers.

Followers mentioned are;

"Doc" Schweitzer
Fargo Flintlocke / Brakk Schildspalter
Blutrose / Noel Harrison
Kathrena Winterleuchten / Samantha Thornton
Flachping / Lawrence Scharf
Hester Schwarzzunder / Cheri
Colm Schmettersturm / Gravy
Dilben Eisenschuss / Rok'tar

For those of you wondering how to recruit from the inn;
Guide to the Garrison Lunarfall Inn / Frostwall Tavern
There was a questions asked about the followers being temporary, no they are permanent once you obtain them.

If anyone has more information on how to obtain these followers i would be more than willing to update this thread happy hunting. :)

Fargo Flintlocke
Race: Dwarf (companion trait Dwarvenborn)
Class: Protection Warrior
Available Counters: Danger Zones, Massive Strike, Minion Swarms, Powerful Spell, and Wild Aggression.

Fargo is obtained through the Lunarfall Inn weekly recruitment. He has a chance to show up if you request a follower with one of his countering abilities, or any trait. He starts at level 90 uncommon. As with all followers, he will have 1 ability and 1 trait at uncommon, adding another random trait at rare, and an ability and a random trait at epic.

As noted by others, he is a reference to the Fargo Flintlocke character in comics created by Dave Kosak.

Like in Stormwind and Twilight Highlands, Fargo Flintlocke has unique click-on dialogue. (Instead of the Generic Dwarf Quotes, you get unique Fargo quotes when you click on him.)

Kommentar von MrWhitewolf

He has unique and surprising audio phrases when clicked, rare among followers. This makes him a great choice for manning a profession hut other people will use when visiting your garrison, like enchanting.
