According to the show, Talia's form was pretty unique. Yes, Laura had it to, but as the successor in the Hale family, which seems matriarchal then there is no wonder that she was able to do this.

It has already been said that whatever your true feelings and nature are is reflected in your appearance. Peter was angry and full of rage against those that burned his home, hence his beast of a form. Derek so far is following in his footsteps as far as clinging to anger and he too has marked others for vengeance.

Scott's true form may be the dark wolf (Shadow) from the promo or (Ronnie) from the credits. That form to me indicates one that accepts their role and will act in the best interest of the others. Talia and Laura both possessed those traits from what we have been shown/told so far. I think it has more to do with your spiritual side and outlook on life, your desires and overall aura. But this last part is IMO.
