Personally I'd like to see Nidalee taking the approach of a  guardian of not just the jungle, but of the things that it hides from the rest of the world.

Kumungu and the Plague Jungles are implied to be the resting place of countless treasures and ruins. She could still have the same backstory but they could write the cougars that adopted her a tribe of shapeshifting shamans who protect the jungle's dark secrets from outsiders.

The jungle area of Runeterra is pretty unexplored as it is lorewise, who knows, somehting really dangerous might be lying in wait inside a decadent temple  long since claimed by the jungle's vines.
