Timbal
Before posting as Zarhym, Jonathan posted as Timbal.[1]
Timbal was a US moderator staff, usually taking care of the graveyard shift. This typically means he dealt with the more blatant and offensive trolls who believe that because there are fewer moderators on, their posts will remain up until morning. Frequent posters in the Off Topic forum had a rather cordial relationship with him, due to how frequently they interact.
The 
[Timbal's Focusing Crystal] was inspired by him.

Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday Zarhym! Happy Birthday to you!
Music tastes
Zarhym and Bashiok are large fans of Puscifer - a band that shares the vocalist of Tool. At one point, Zarhym had lyrics from a Puscifer song as his forum signature. Puscifer member Josh Eustis was invited to visit Blizzard HQ, and Zarhym posted a photo afterwards to Facebook and Instagram.
Awards
At Dragon*Con 2012, Zarhym was presented with the very first "Community Manager of the Year" award. Blizzard won "Best Community Management team" as well. [2]
