Blizz
Infinitely curious and adventuresome, Blizz always felt confined on his native Tatooine--the endless rolling dunes and limited selection of scrap leaving him perpetually bored. So when the traveling salvager Slam Streever visited Blizz's clan to offer Jawas work as "ferrets"--individuals he could send into dangerous and dilapidated areas to scout for salvage treasure--Blizz leapt at the opportunity.
Blizz spent several years with Slam's crew before the old scrapper made the mistake of selling his services to Hoth's White Maw pirates. Years of toil under the menacing watch of the White Maw would soon deprive the salvagers of reasons to smile--but first, Slam gave his small friend the nickname "Blizz" after the little Jawa kicked up a snowstorm of excitement during his first encounter with the "white sands." It's a name Blizz cherishes; one that reminds him of happier times.

"Uh oh... uh oh!"

"Yay! Blizz test new settings!"
I believe the character's backstory explains the origins of his name, but sure, it can be intepreted in many ways for out-of-TOR context...
See the Codex Entry for details:
"Blizz spent several years with Slam's crew before the old scrapper made the mistake of selling his services to Hoth's White Maw pirates. Years of toil under the menacing watch of the White Maw would soon deprive the salvagers of reasons to smile--but first, Slam gave his small friend the nickname "Blizz" after the little Jawa kicked up a snowstorm of excitement during his first encounter with the "white sands." It's a name Blizz cherishes; one that reminds him of happier times."
1st meeting with this guys is just funny:
A Chiss warden takes you to his holding cell and tells you that he's been constantly sneaking out of the prison, but instead of running away he just starts taking things apart, which makes warden mad.
Than the lil guy starts to talk in his hyperactive gibberish Jawa language, which is just adorable.
And few moments later at his cell, while you watch the warden walk away, he just snatchs your blaster away while you're not looking. XD

got him 2 days ago on the end of class quest from Hoth ye it was Hoth wasn´t it...... damn been playing to much. But honestly this guy is AMAZING been laughing ever since I got him he is the new black if you ain´t got a BH he is leveling one worth it.
cheers.
blizz my new best friend.
@ 0j0n: The first Jawa was seen on the silver screen in 1977. I'm pretty sure that predates World of Warcraft by just a few years.
On a side note, it's sort of a shame that the Jawas in SWTOR are so stocky. According to the litterature, they are of a rodent-like species, and in the movies they where played by kids. Both occurances makes for slender builds, and I would have liked to see it here aswell. That aside, Blizz is the most adorable companion I have, and whenever I'm not on a mish-run I have him along, just for the commentry =)

I picked up Blizz at level 39, anxious to have a tank thanks to the comments here.
However, what I found was a repeatedly dead little guy. :(
I geared him very well; spent over 40K buying him more Aim, Power and defense.
I was also anxious because Gault and Mako have not been holding up very well either.
I had skipped Torian, also because of the comments here. Frustrated by frequent deaths in the simple fights I pulled him out of the box and put the Heavy Aim gear on him rather than Blizz.
Even with half his gear several levels below Blizz, he is tanking better and doing more damage than Blizz.
I fear the problem that I'm going to have is a lack of weapons to support him.
None the less, I'm finding him to be a much better tank.
Blizz's stock gear lacks the following:
Both Implants
Earpiece
Helmet
If you want to use him right off the bat, I'd highly suggest you find him some gear for those slots that push his primary tanking stats (Aim, Endurance, Defense Rating, Shield Rating, Absorption)
He also comes with a full socketed blaster that you can upgrade with new Barrels, Mods, Crystals and Enhancements. Me personally, I banked this blaster as soon as I got an upgrade stat-wise. It can get pricey and be a pain to keep the sockets on your companion's gear current and quality.
If you want to level up his affection on the quick, buying the Rank 1 Holoviewers (Technology) gifts for 200 credits a piece from the companion gift vendor is a good way to push him to 2,000 affection. Each one gets him +96 affection until hitting 2,000, as of this patch.
Actually, when Blizz was first shown I believe back at E3 or something else in early summer, that it was completely by accident, and wasn't until a SWTOR fan at a convention mentioned it, that they were like "Oh, whoops!"
There was also remarks about Blizz being the first SW:TOR Plushie.
All I know is that I would buy a Blizz plushie, no question about that.
Loved the BH storyline so far in the beta, really looking forward to adding this little guy to the team.
