David C. Sutherland III created the modern-day wemic for a game product called Monster Cards Set 3, a first edition [[Advanced Dungeons and Dragons]] supplement released in 1982; with the artwork for the original depiction being undertaken by Jim Roslof. From these humble origins, it went on to appear in the AD&D 1e's [[Monster Manual]] II. From AD&D 2e onwards, it began its long association with the [[Forgotten Realms]]; it first appeared in the Forgotten Realms Monstrous Compendium Appendix, and was subsequently reprinted in the Monstrous Manual. It became a playable race in the [[Complete Book Series|Complete Book of Humanoids]], and then in Player's Options: Skills & Powers. It also had an "Ecology of" article in Dragon #157.

The wemic subsequently made its way into [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]], first through the FR [[splatbook]] "Monsters of Faerun" as a creature, and then as a PC option in "Races of Faerun".
