The '''beast''', '''wolf''' (lupine) or '''{{wplink|werewolf}}''' (lycan) '''mask''' is one of the many forms of head items. But behind stats, such masks are very desirable for their appearance as part of a [[roleplaying outfit]], especially after ''[[Cataclysm]]'', which has introduced both the [[worgen]] race and the [[transmogrification]] feature.

'''Kodo'''{{cite|HPG|210}} (aka '''Kodo Beast'''), are massive reptiles with thick leathery skin that ranges in color from sandy brown to black. Most kodo have a large horn that sprouts from their nose, and some are even covered in thick woolly hair. Kodo range across central Kalimdor, but are particularly prevalent in [[Mulgore]], where the rolling grassy plains are particularly suited to their omnivorous nature. The [[Tauren]] hold them in high esteem, and breed them as [[mount]]s. They are also used extensively as pack animals by both the [[goblin]]s and the [[Horde]]. During the [[Third War]], the [[orc]]s received a pack of tamed kodo as a gift from [[Cairne]] in return for Thrall's generosity. The [[orc]]s used the kodo to carry drummer and giant war-drums, which were played furiously to boost morale during combat. These kodo were also taught the amusing trick of swallowing their enemies whole in the middle of a battle. Wild kodo are normally herbivorous, however, and will not attack unless threatened.

The giant, slow-moving kodo beasts of the Barrens are one of the most intriguing species of Kalimdor. Though gentle and ponderous by nature, these mighty beasts become fierce enemies when threatened or attacked. Many kodo hold a special bond with the benevolent tauren race. It is said that some rare kodo are bound to the spirits of the sky and storm. Thus, the tauren have legends about those they call Lightning Lizards, [[Salamander]]s (not the [[Flamewaker]] creatures), [[thunder lizard]]s and Storm Walkers. Whether or not these behemoths actually have supernatural powers remains to be seen. If one ''is'' discovered, it should be approached with extreme caution. It is said that these thunder lizards are much more hostile than their more common cousins and will attack without provocation.

The epic kodo is can be bought at [[Bloodhoof Village]]. The PvP kodo is the [[Black War Kodo]]. Epic Kodo, unlike their slower cousins, have two rhino-like horns on their snout instead of just one. They also bear war drums that hang from the sides of their saddles, as they did when they served the orcs in battle.

Revision as of 00:31, 5 January 2012

The beast, wolf (lupine) or werewolf (lycan) mask is one of the many forms of head items. But behind stats, such masks are very desirable for their appearance as part of a roleplaying outfit, especially after Cataclysm, which has introduced both the worgen race and the transmogrification feature.

List of masks

There three models of masks.

Beast masks

All of them are mail.

Wolf masks. Model I

The most of them are leather, and exceptions are come from single quest.

Wolf masks. Model II

All of them are mail.

Trivia

  • Beast model mask was likely inspired by the Rexxar's mask from Warcraft III. So it is very desirable by Hunter Hunters.
  • Wolf model mask was likely inspired by the Shaman unit of Warcraft III. So it is very desirable by Shaman Shamans.
