Concept art
One of possible forms would be Bear as seen in concept art.

Berserker
Though I'm sure its been stated many times, the Norn's defiantly sound like the Norse Berserker's. There are stories about the berserker's transforming into Wolfs(Werewolfs basically), and since there are stories of Were-bears its not that far off. Wonder if they'll have other transformations? wolf, bear, aquatic creature(from the black lagoon i think), gargoyle, and demon(I have a fairly detailed idea on how I'd have these work). I'm excited about this race but sad at the same time cince I've been working with some people on a "chapter" for guildwars involving a similiar race :( 68.104.205.160 14:20, 25 March 2007 (CDT) umph

Actully, the bersekers usally transformed into bears more times in legend then wolves, so these guys were defeitly inspired by them seeing as they both live in the far-north in a cold area. An I belive it was stated they only transform into bears.--TheDrifter 22:29, 27 March 2007 (CDT) I think the Norns somehow resemble the Druids in Diablo II Expansion and the Night Elves Druids in Warcraft III, as they both can shape-shift and are from Blizzard, but I'm not sure their design origin. --Shin 11:55, 30 March 2007 (CDT)
 * More often then not they DID turn into bears, but there are stories of them turning into wolves. Still, bears are the more commonly accepted version, since berserker derives from "bear sark" or bear shirt, which they wore into battle.Silver40596 14:57, 4 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Yeah, they do, although D&D did it first. -- Gordon Ecker 21:36, 30 March 2007 (CDT)

Picture?
Can we get a picture to use for the Norn? This page looks considerably bland. Leina 03:34, 11 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Unfortunately, as an official fansite, we're generally restricted to screenshots and images from the fansite kit. One option is getting permission to use someone's fanart as a placeholder image. I don't believe we've ever used fanart as placeholder images in the past, but there's no policy against doing so. -- Gordon Ecker 04:05, 11 April 2007 (CDT)
