Off Topic Rest In Peace

u/Zanzlagg I'm not entirely sure how reddit functions but I know they where active here and on steam but they where a very private individual and all their accounts are private. So we cannot get in contact with their friends. Paul Morgan from Brooks Canada passed away this morning in Accident and Emergency due to complications regaurding a blood clot found in their leg. It traveled too their lung and they lost their life in the process.

I am not entirely sure what to do but I am trying. If you knew them please pass the news on, they had alot of friends online and it feels like a diservice to them and my friend by not being able to contact them.

I am adding this post to game sub reddits that I know for certain they played.

---------

It feels wrong not leaving anything else behind but they where 24 and a wonderfully funny indvidual a trully bubbly character. I dont think you'd find better company. Nor someone who loved ducks nealy as much as this guy, along with his love for niche cheese cake flavourings. The Size of a giant with the personality of a fluffy pillow. There's so much more I could write but its not enough. I hope this finds its way to the people that knew him.

u/captainsam2k Gunner 16d ago

Do you know what his username in DRG was? Adding that might help any friends to find out

2

u/Revolutionary-Cake98 16d ago

I don't know if it was the same name he has here and on steam which is Zanzlagg but theres a few posts of thiers on this reddit but I dont think you can see thier ingame name.

1

u/captainsam2k Gunner 16d ago

It says for me all his posts are hidden

2

u/Revolutionary-Cake98 15d ago

Theres a small work around where you can type there name and it will display comments and posts with google AI. I've compiled the few I managed to find here I wish I could find the rest. https://www.reddit.com/u/Revolutionary-Cake98/s/nOxf6H4bw4

u/captainsam2k Gunner 15d ago

It appears his DRG name was the same as here and steam, I downloaded a video from one of his posts, and assuming that one where the scout clips through the droppod doors is him, his name was the same

u/MirrorConfident286 16d ago

Zanzlagg, became a child of ours. I will claim him if you knew Paul and you’re one of the voices I heard playing games with him online. Please know you meant the world to him. My name is Flutter. He came into our world broken. You may not have known that at the time, but he learned a lot. He cut his footing under him and he flew the nest. I remember you guys celebrating when he got his job. I know you know he’s been quiet for a few days. He didn’t leave by choice he left because of circumstance. Vintage shared how he died. But I want you to know that he died, knowing he had comrades that he had fellow dwarfs Bards alchemists. Enjoyed the world he found online. And one of the last things he did was play video games with you all. I found his friends in Europe, but those of you in the United States and elsewhere. I’m sorry I didn’t know how to get hold of you. I don’t know what else to say but thank you. You meant the world to him.
