Zen'Kiki (or Zen'kiki) is a jungle troll druid of the Cenarion Circle.
History[]
As an initiate of the Circle, he appeared in the Western Plaguelands seeking to cleanse it. He is given to the adventurer to train his abilities and accuracy. It is decided that he would become a healer.
Zen'Kiki also helped defend Sethria's Roost on Mount Hyjal against the minions of Ragnaros.[1]
He also appeared in Lunarfall Inn / Frostwall Tavern on Draenor. Sent as an investigator of the Primals by the Cenarion Circle, he explains that he would have come sooner, but had "a little trouble" getting his flight form to work on Draenor.
During the Burning Legion's third invasion, Zen'Kiki appeared in the Dreamgrove. When Malfurion Stormrage named a new Arch Druid and most of the surrounding druids enter bear, cat, moonkin, or flight forms in celebration, Zen'Kiki instead transformed into a lion seal.
In order to learn, he became an assistant to the Archdruid.
He later appeared in Deliverance Point on the Broken Shore selling general goods.
Zen'kiki was part of the dual Cenarion Circle and Earthen Ring forces aiding Magni Bronzebeard to heal Silithus from the wound inflicted by Sargeras.[2]
Zen'kiki joined the Dragonscale Expedition and traveled to Shady Sanctuary in the Ohn'ahran Plains on the Dragon Isles where he can be seen speaking with Thisalee Crow.

Notes[]
Zen'Kiki will follow the player and provide extra fire, not only for this quest, but also anywhere in the Western Plaguelands while the quests involving him are active. In his main form, he casts 
[Wrath] (with the old animation from before patch 4.3.0), which hits for 350 damage, although it misses often.
Occasionally he will polymorph into a random animal form, with less than spectacular results. It is always accompanied by him saying "Shapeshift!" followed by something relevant to the form.
- Aquatic Form: Falls onto his back and gets stuck lying on the ground.
- Shapeshift! Try to swim away now mon!
- Shapeshift! Uh oh... wait a minute here...
- Shapeshift! Oh no! Not again...
- This isn't right.
- Can Zen'Kiki get a little nudge?
- A little help here...
- I seem to be... stuck...
- Why you guys upside down?
- Zen'kiki's real sorry about this.
- Moonkin Form: Repeatedly miscasts [Moonfire] on himself, bringing him down to 25% health and 0 mana.
- Shapeshift! Here comes de moonfire!
- Shapeshift! Here it comes, mon!
- Oof!
- Cut it out!
- Ouch!
- Yowch!
- It burns!
- Ow, mon!
- It burns like the moon!
- Stop dat!
- Cat Form: Jumps around erratically, casting [Feral Charge] at empty space.
- Shapeshift! Time for cat form!
- Shapeshift! Get ready to taste my claws
- Shapeshift! Zen'Kiki's ready to pounce!
- Get back over here, mon!
- Rawr!
- Leap!
- Attack!
- Meow!
- Pounce!
- Here comes Zen'Kiki!
- Haha!
- Bear Form: Turns away from the enemy and uses [Growl] on nothing.
- Shapeshift! Over here, mon!
- Shapeshift! Time for bear form!
- Shapeshift! Zen'kiki will absorb de damage!
- Am I hitting him? (stands with his back to the mob)
- Rawr!
- Zen'Kiki is in control!
- Get over here, you coward!
- No, hit me! Over here, mon!
- I got dis one!
Trivia[]
- It is suspected that he is a parody of clueless druid players.
- Zen'kiki's being unable to fly on Draenor may be both a reference to his past difficulties with shapeshifting, and the design decision by Blizzard to delay flying for the player base.

The 
[Cracked Voodoo Mask] may have belonged to Zen'Kiki, judging by the initials Z.K.
