With a big focus on the Emerald Dream, Dragonflight Patch 10.2 includes new customization options for Druids! Balance Moonkin forms are inspired by stacking stone cairns, while other fiery customizations will be earned from the new raid!
The press kit also includes other druidic concept art from the Emerald Dream, including a bear, stag, and named NPC Aurostor the Hibernating, although it's not known if these will be actual forms available to players.
In an interview with Icy-Veins, Assistant Game Director Morgan Day and Senior Game Designer Patrick Scarborough commented that there were also other Fiery Druid customizations that players would earn from the raid, which is also very fiery themed — some of which we may have images for as well!
Note that these images are sourced from the press kit and not yet confirmed as player available, as many are likely enemies.

Alongside the wealth of Druid form customizations coming in Dragonflight Patch 10.2, we've found two brand new animations specifically for Boomkin models! It's not quite clear if these are actually intended for players, as there are several Druids featured within Amirdrassil and the Emerald Dream, though it seems very likely that they could.
