Skin ideas

1. Default Cenarius: just like on every artwork. Half Night Elf male and half stag with imposing horns and many leaves. Not sure if he would be with beard or no - it depends of artist.

Colour tints:
Summer Cenarius


Autumn Cenarius


Evergreen Cenarius

2. Master Cenarius: just more everything. More leaves in his beard and horns, some flowers, bigger horns, additional sash etc.

3. Twisted fate skin: Emerald Nightmare Cenarius - corrupted skin. Withered horns with thorns instead of flowers, dark colouristic, long cow's tail, hooves with some spooky glowing etc.

Lore: "Only the blessed by Ysera can walk into the Emerald Dream. But some of them are going too far. The Nightmare possessed even Cenarius the Demigod. Now he's the faithful servant of the Old God N'zoth."

4. Nexus themed skin: Cenarius: the Garden Keeper - Garden of Terror theme. Lot of flowers, roses, lilys et cetera, green skin, horse features instead of stag's.
Lore: "The gardener lady has many servants. Cenarius, keeper of flowers and shrubs is her favourite valet."

5. Holiday skin: Cenarius: Winterveil skin: Reindeer features, Christmas lights, mistletoe on horns.
