Briefly considered the idea of Pet Shop as a kineticist but it's kinda hard to be specifically ice themed.

On the utterly silly side, a zoophonia muse parrot bard with a saloon entertainer background and whose performance speciality is comedy. Think "bar mascot who got awakened after some druids partied really, really hard".
Bonus points of they're a real macaw! ;)
We can now have awakened animals and their plushy versions adventuring side by side.
We can have the whole Hundred-Acre Wood in a party!
Bigfoot/Yeti, some sort of "Wildman"
Bestial in nature,furryness and perhaps size.
Tarzan/Mowgli.
Shaped like a man,raised as a beast.
Little Fuzzy: Cute, small, furry,ferocious.
Everything from TMNT:After the Bomb-I miss that game-verse!

I'm bummed this is for Awakened Animals and not all of the Howl options! Surely including some Merfolk and Minotaurs wouldn't spoil the fun?
I don’t think they’d spoil the fun, and would definitely add to it!
My awakened animal character would be a wolverine monk who travels with his well-armored minotaur friend. Their favorite opening tactic, if his friend gets a higher initiative, is for the minotaur to use the Friendly Fling feat to get my character into melee range for a claw strike.

The minotaur might be interested in the Talos versatile heritage.
Grog, the gorilla psychic inventor.
Not sure if it’s possible but I would LOVE to play an awakened dinosaur. Bear with me that I have little knowledge on how 2E works so these are just concepts that I have no idea if I can flesh out or not.
Either an awakened allosaurus (scaled down to be the size of Fang from Primal) as either a Barbarian or Fighter. rugged, stoic, cold warrior who feels like little has changed in his life from gaining sentience
alternatively, a Compsognathus who is some kind of Intelligence based caster (alchemist, investigator, wizard) who is incredibly smart but has an ego and one hell of a Napoleon complex.

Hmm... provided you were willing to accept the limitations of only getting up to Large size, you absolutely could play an allosaurus with no meaningful difficulties beyond any other awakened animal would naturally face. Ditto the compsognathus, except without the size caveat because that dino is definitely either a Tiny or Small either way.

Yes, hence why I said I wouldn’t mind the allosaurus being scaled down to Fang’s size in Primal. idk if you’ve seen the show (would recommend), but despite being based on a T rex, the character of Fang is about the size of a large horse, which fits for the Large size.
My biggest problem after finding out how to get their crunch down would be finding a campaign where I can actually play them

...somewhere, there is probably a group where the party is composed entirely of awakened dinosaurs and they're running through the "Extinction Curse" AP.
Haha! Now that we are free of our bonds, we shall get revenge upon our former masters, the filthy xulgath who maimed us!

Yeah I definitely need to learn how to play PF2 just to do Extinction’s Curse with a warrior Allosaurus, that’s just thematically perfect

It takes some ACP so it can't be your first character but they're legal in PFS. I'm playing my awakened Leopard in PFS with no issues whatsoever

What you need is:
A ballerina troop of Awakened Ostriches...
Who rouse the Awakened Hippopotamus Princess...
Who is then courted by the Awakened Alligator Acrobat.

ACP? Armor Class Penalty?

More properly abbreviated as AcP, it stands for "Achievement Points". You start with 80 AcP when first joining the Pathfinder Society organized play. You accumulate more AcP for playing (~4-7 per session) and can spend them for in-game benefits (such as hiring an NPC or getting a character resurrected) or to unlock Uncommon or Rare items, spells, ancestries, and other character options that have been sanctioned for Society play. To play an awakened animal in Pathfinder Society, you must spend 160 AcP to acquire that ancestry for a single character.
I hope that helps.
ooh. honestly I’d go with a different character if I play Pathfinder Society…which I haven’t done since high school. Might consider doing that again.

I just found this thread and wanted to add that young Jon is super psyched that I can now make a Badger Lord style fighter and make a full on Redwall game.

My Triceratops Kineticist would love to chat about this intriguing topic.
I've also got waiting in the wings the mighty Moosemus Maximus, the Awakened Animal Exemplar. BEHOLD THE MIGHTY MOOSE OF DESTINY!
I must hear of the exploits of ALL these characters.

I just watched the action packed end of Disney's Robin Hood for the nth time.
Still a classic adventure romp!
I would love to see someone stat out the fox and the bear.
What kind of rogues are they?
Robin is so damn good with the bow,maybe he's a fighter with rogue archetype?
Lion tamer.
Is that a Summoner archetype? So you are a Lion, what do you tame? ;)

I did actually consider "lion who is a tamer" after I wrote that.
But I was thinking Ranger with a Cat animal companion.
Of course, he was always afraid of cats of all kinds--even cute little house cats! But awakening equipped him with so many more tools to deal with them. Literally sometimes, once he learned to use weapons.
Rats have trouble with cats, but people usually don't. Now he's people. Problem solved. And for a while dealing with cats by using sharp things felt really good. They clearly had it coming. Vengeance!
But... cats are just animals, and he's really not any more. It started to feel cruel. How do people deal with dangerous animals, anyway? They do what?
...okay. That actually sounds awesome. He can learn to do that.

If someone decides to make a one rat monk, four turtle fighters party... PLEASE let me know...

Clearly it's a Rat Monk, and a Turtle Commander (... leads), Turtle Inventor (... does machines), Turtle Barbarian (... cool but rude), and a Turtle Swashbuckler (a party dude).

I would love to share my concept for Prey for Death of an Awakened Mantis Warpreist of Achaekek who worked in a garden assassinating pests and other unworthy pretenders while upholding the divine right of queen bees, ants, and other insects destined to rule.
