Time to ride the trending threads of customisation.
Worgen are missing two classes which would make sense lore wise but have never been implemented.
Monks and Paladins.
Monks -
There have been questions as of why the Worgen weren’t given the monk class, moreso when every other race (minus Goblins) were given the class.
Some comment it is about anger issue or deep rooted issues. These points hold no water as both Orcs and Undead can be monks.
The more logical reason for the missing monk class is because both Worgen and Goblin starting zones are instanced and Blizzard didn’t want to go back and add more justification as of why.
The solution? Exiles Reach. This is a new starting zone which would remove the problem with the instanced starting zone. Just have Worgen monks start in Exiles Reach, this gives them the class and also maintains what is left of the timeline.
Paladins -
Be it ‘The Light’ or be it Elune, Worgen could and should have paladins in their ranks.
Yes, Gilneas was sealed off before the creation of the paladin order, but Crowley did send military forces out of Gilneas to aid the Alliance when Greymane would not.
If you wanted to have them be paladins in Gilneas, those of Crowley’s men who returned could have brought the ideals of the paladins back with them, as Gilneas already worships the Holy Light with it’s cathedral.
But if Blizzard wanted more breathing room, they could just have Worgen paladins start in Exiles Reach.
As this would take place almost a decade after the fall of the Greymane wall.
Others have mentioned that their curse would stop them. There is little to no evidence of this.
If the curse of flesh given by the old gods didn’t stop Humans and Dwarfs, a nature curse by a wild god wouldn’t stop them.
Or we can look more towards Elune and have the Worgen be part of a Night Elf paladin order. Adding both Night Elf and Worgen paladins to those playable.
Both are seething with a lust for vengeance to avenge their homelands, and who else to grant that vengeance than the night mother herself.
In Summary -
There is nothing in lore to prevent Worgen paladins or monks, especially now that Exiles Reach is a thing.
Worgen paladin could open the door to Night Elf paladins or visa versa.
