Why don't Worgen have tails exactly?

They are supposed to be werewolf-esque aren't they? I just think they would look so much better with tails...
Gominam of Madoran
Hmmm...I think ur right. but don't they already have a 'little' tail?
Zeria of Bloodscalp
Werewolves aren't supposed to have tails either.

I could have sworn I saw some concept art somewhere that had a worgen with a tail, I'm trying to find it...
Mirabar of Duskwood
I say give them tails and I want a /wagetail emote. DO IT!

none of the worgen have had tails up to this point, so why would they start now?

It was a tabard. Worgen never had tails and never will - they just... don't. Just because they're similar to werewolves doesn't mean they get a tail.

tails take millions of years evolving, and beards take about 15

Many humans do not have facial hair. It is entirely possible to live one's life and not see a human with facial hair. This does not mean it is equally likely that humans have tails.

The argument is equally applicable to worgen.

Except... it's not, thanks to that little thing that doesn't exist in our world. You know the one I'm talking about.

I think they look better without tails.

Current Worgen don't have tails, why would playable ones have them?

Because it would make them look 10x better?

The problem is the moon. If the Worgen see the moon they turn into giant apes that can blast massive energy beams from their mouth. They could destroy capital cities within minutes. But if you cut off their tails, they can't transform into giant ape form. Hence the reason for no tails.

That's subjective, and not a valid reason.

Apes are tailless as well, wouldn't that just make the transformation easier.

Why should they? They are also humanoids and do not need a tail for balance since they walk upright and in two legs. Maybe they should sprout one during Running Wild only, would that please you?
