Sunwalkers

Sunwalkers is the speculative name of the order of tauren paladins coming with the release of the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm according to multiple posts on the official forums by Blizzard poster Kisirani.

The in-game conversation between Thunder Bluff NPCs Aponi Brightmane and Tahu Sagewind suggests the tauren may be able to draw power from the sun, An'she, like the druids draw power from the moon, Mu'sha.

Due to the tauren having no history with the [Holy Light], it is likely that their power comes from another source entirely, similar to night elf priests gaining their powers from Elune and troll priests gaining their powers from the Loa. Thus their in-game abilities would be similar to those of human, dwarf, draenei and blood elf paladins, even though the source of their power is different.
