Just a thought experiment - human druid

How would the forms look like?
Let me see/hear your concepts

Give me cow travel form or give me death.

A pigeon flight form XD

Something weird happens here, because what they do with Druids is that they take what makes a race different from humans and then apply those differences to the form.

For example, Night Elf Cat Form has long elvish ears and a purple furcoat and they are quite large because Night Elves, compared to humans, have those exact features that humans lack. Otherwise they are humans. Same with the Tauren version. It gets a mane and horns because Tauren have those things. The fur colour follows the Tauren’s fur colour (or did, at least), and their tail is tufted at the end because a cow’s tail is tufted at the end.

So when you apply this logic to humans, you realise that the difference is 0, and so the form must be just the animal, straight up?

That doesn’t really work.

So they’re going to have to find some other way to do it. What they did with the Drust was pretty cool, but it didn’t really catch on much. The Dinomancer is a really cool concept as well. So it’s probably possible.

So what is a human druid? Who do they pray to? What do they believe? From whence do their powers stem?

You cannot make a Human Druid that’s cool in any way before you answer those questions - and I don’t have those answers.

I imagine a Lion for cat form…
Not sure about bear…
Gryphon as flight form?

the mental image of a human going bear form just to turn into a naked kul’tiran won’t go away.

house cat
travel would be a horse
bear i dunno
moonkin a literal chicken.

  • Travel Form : Pidgeon / chicken / Crow
  • Bear Form: Pig / Boar / Cow
  • Cat Form : Mastiff
  • Travel Form : Pony

Seems to make sense since playable humans are specifically Stormwind humans in lore.

Bear form I’d just do a bear, but a new model.

Gryphon flight form feels too big to me. Maybe crow.

Perhaps the moonkin form could have a specific gryphon theme to it.

Travel form I think a horse would make sense (the bulky type, not some unicorn wannabe).

Someone once made a danish wow machinima about a human druid called james og hans våben. If you can danish it’s quite fun to watch.

I am Danish so will defo give it a look
Thank you

bear form: Bear with maybe like a gold and blue collar or maybe a cape, super bear
or or a big pig, like boar type pig with a golden collar or or or a massive spider
cat form: Wolf, gimmie a white lion with a golden and blue collar
travel form: Griffon for flying, Stallion for ground, and a Shark for water
Moonkin: Humanoid chicken, kinda like an aarakocra from dnd

no worries

Cow/bull - bear
Horse - travel
Oversized Chicken - moonkin
Some creature that lives in the water like a shark or dolphin or just a cool looking fish
Maybe a panther/tiger for the kitty form, can’t think of anything original there
(As someone mentioned lion would be amazing, that includes a female lion that would look more cat-like as they do)

(I’d like for blood elves to have the kitty shop mount as a form)

Definitely a Lion for cat form.

Stormwind has wolves, gryphons and lions… might be what they’ll use.

Worgen has the dogbreed

gnomes has some rabbit (hunter starter pet)

and so on… could be a theme
