Lore
The Novice Zapper appears to be a depiction of Zekhan, the novice Darkspear troll shaman who becomes a confidant of 
Overlord Saurfang during the events of the Fourth War. The name of the card is reference to the "Zappy Boi" memes that were used to refer to Zekhan prior to his name being revealed, referencing the powerful lightning attacks he used during the World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth cinematic trailer.
Trivia
- Novice Zapper's artwork depicts the troll shaman Zekhan. The card's name is a reference to Zekhan being nicknamed "Zappy Boi" by the community due to his lightning-based attacks.
