Tuanka Stables help!

[Lupis]

Title says it all. I have a character whom I'm roleplaying as a Tuanka from Storm Peaks, and he needs pets! Unfortunately, he's only level 75. >.>
As a taunka, I assume it'll be brutish, strong beasts, mostly from cold environments.

Details - he's a wandering artists. He's not good at fighting... At all. In fact, he's downright lame. His pets do most of the fighting for him. He, in the meanwhile, draws. A lot. He's a bit of a coward, honestly.
So I'd assume his pets would be nothing too unique, or else he'd never be able to tame it!

At the moment he has a white jormunger as his only Taunka-like pet.

Anyway, that's really it. Any suggestions?

[pengupuff]

These came to mind (especially the rhino):









I added the moth just because your Taunka seems so timid, and that particular moth can be found in Borean Tundra, which goes along with his preferred cold climate. ^_^

[gigandetsgirl]

I agree, a rhino instantly came to mind! In addition to pengupuff's awesome suggestions, may I suggest:

[Wassa]

Basically look at the beasts found in zones Taunka inhabit and choose pets from there. Any pet that is only found in Northrend might make a great match.

Some other suggestions:
or

or

Any of the northrend worgs.


Any rhino or jormungar worm, as suggested before.

[Moonlost]

Some very good suggestions thus far, especially the Rhino. A more perfect fitting pet I cannot think of. :3
A few other ideas;







And when the new patch hits;

[Lupis]

I'm leaning towards a Blue rhino as his rhino pet. It's a must. (My character's name is Bluefur and he has, well, blue fur. Yes, I know it's a silly name for a RP character... I made him a long time ago.)

The other suggestions are awesome, though! I'll consider all of them.

[Rower]

I suggest you this:

And it's an unique pet I think, never saw a hunter with this skin!

I adore that tallstrider skin. I think the others pretty much covered a lovely variety of selections. If I think of/find something else, I'll post it here.

Went out and tamed a couple of the suggested pets! Here's what I have so far.


Already tamed and one of my faves, Aiyana.


Meh... Not my favorite. Though a white one will probably look better.


I kind of like this one, though he doesn't say Taunka to me.


I really like the idea of a hyena, but I think white would fit him more.


This guy fit a lot more than I expected! I tried out the diseased one as well, but it just didn't fit.


Another one that I like. Mostly because he's so tiny!


Fits perfectly. All his colors match, and what's better than a derp-faced rhino?


Like the turtle, I like this one, but it doesn't say Taunka.


Definitely Taunka, but those wings!


Lovely, and would be one of my favorites, but he drags his butt.


My favorite of the new tames. He matches Blue, somehow.

More to come later!

Sorry for any typos, using my mom's iPad.

What about The Razza over a regular chimaera? I think the colors are very suiting to him. The large wingspan of chimaeras doesn't bother me; but then again, large pets never have. I think big pets are great for PvP; if my enemy can't see around the pet then they have a lesser chance of getting to me.

But I digress...I think the rhino looks superb with Bluefur and I think that a white hyena and saber wolf should be nice as well.

might fit him as well.

[Lupis]

And, the rest of the ones... That I can tame. Oh, except a white saber worg and a white hyena.


A pretty blue worg. Very pretty! Matches him well.


The Razza, who I already had tamed. Also pretty - and matches him more than the other, I think. Not very Taunka, though.


Not in the suggested list, but I thought he might match well. I was right. I like him a lot. He seems to match Storm Peaks.


Eh... This guy seems too green for my tastes. Doesn't look right.


Another one I really like, and it seems very Taunka to me, even though there are no foxes in Northrend.


Er... Not really. The white one matched more. Also, I really don't like this model, or rather the skin.


Hmm.. While pretty, I don't think he looks as good as Hell-Hoot.


Preeetttyyyy. I like.


Also pretty. Too white, though, I think I like the blue one more.


Ahhh, I like him a lot. The mane color looks great.

[gigandetsgirl]

Loving them all so far!!! That rhino should really be his iconic pet - it's like they were made for one another.

[Lupis]

Definitely an improvement.


Forgot this one... I like him, too! x.x Too many pets!


Finally, another I don't like. The colors just aren't right.

[Lupis]

Just hit 76, taming some more that I couldn't tame before.
Strangely enough, Loque likes me. A lot. Three times I've wanted to find Loque, and every single time, he's been at the first or second spawn point, first time I look. Happened again.
He hates me when I don't intend to tame him, though. He's *never* shown up when I don't want to tame him.

[Lupis]

Not very Taunka, either. Maybe the regular white one. I do like it, though.


He matches great! Though, I don't think he'll ever be used in RP, because... um, a spirit beast?


Another one that looks really good. I don't like the model much, but I love how he looks next to Blue.

Only three left. Er, I ruled out some - the Cursed Offspring looked wrong by his side.

[TygerDarkstorm]

What about Duskstalker's model over the regular snow leopard?
