Technically a worgen is a skinwalker or a loup-garoux (which is the french word for werewolf) they seem to be a mix between the two since they do not transform under a full moon BUT they can when they would like too. Skinwalkers and certain Loup-Garoux can transform when the choose. Its like a werewolf but with self control and less primal however they can be savage and will give into primal emotions should it overwhelm them.

It's not a werewolf. Or a skinwalker.

... It's a worgen.

Not all skinwalkers need to wear the animal pelts - skinwalking also refers to shapeshifting without the use of the animal pelt it is also told in other lore and is at times referred to as skinwalking. But my point is I didnt say it was either I said if they based it off of something it would be off of those two because they do not NEED the moon to transform which these dont as well.

Well, WoW does tend to take 'typical' fantasy tropes and twist them in a different way. I'm sure we'll learn more about Worgen and how they work in Cata.

Lazuly has it right, though - thats what WOW does and they have certainly done here. LOTS of ideas and concepts in WOW stem from lore/fantasy tropes and especially DnD as do most fantasy games, thats a give in however. Love that game :D

I linked to the forum they were in in my last post since I'm not sure if it's ok to post em here outright, but if so then ok! :)

I don't think the present Worgen need to look more wolfy, they need to look more Worgeny! Sure Blizzard can do whatever they want but it seems they've strayed into the more werewolf/furry avenue from deviantart or something. :p
