Transmog: Personal Sets #2.

Throughout Firelands, I coveted the Paladin tier something fierce. Those shoulders! That alien-esque helm! The ensemble as a whole was strange, yet beautiful. (And far less crustacean looking than the DK tier! *grumble*) 

When UR ventured back into T12 content to work toward their Corrupted Egg of Millagazor mounts, I was able to attend one of the runs. Happily enough, I won the Spaulders of Manifold Eyes -- those lovely T12 Paladin look-a-like shoulders! I immediately knew I had to fashion a 'Mog that celebrated the aesthetic that I could make my own at long last.

 As a warning, this look is quite risqué without a tabard on. :-P

(Booty rockin' everywhere!)

In Happier News!

When I logged into WoW this morning, Beef had a Swift Lovebird waiting in my mailbox! *cheesy grin* It is an in-game tradition for him to send me a shiny during Love is the the Air, stemming back from when we were wee little level 40 Blood Elves and he surprised me with a Pink Hawkstrider for V-Day '07. (You may know those elves as the Draenei Duo Nathadan and Fiannah. We go way back!)

Transmog: Personal Sets #1.

PvE Set
This set does not display a helm.	Conqueror's Darkruned Shoulderplates (Ulduar25 - dropped by Yogg Saron)	Conqueor's Darkruned Battleplate (Ulduar25 - dropped by Hodir)	Conqueor's Darkruned Legplates (Ulduar25 - dropped by Freya)
Bladebreaker Gauntlets (Purchased from Griselda Hunderland in Dalaran for 487 JP)	The Plaguebringer's Girdle (Purchased from Quartermaster Ozorg in Acherus for 51c)	Boots of the Funeral March (Heroic ICC25 - found in the Cache of the Dreamwalker)	Phantom Blade (From a Rare Blacksmithing Pattern that drops in Stratholme)

Note: I do not display a cloak, but Shroud of the North Wind looks fabulous with the set. Death Knights can pick it up from Quartermaster Ozorg in Acherus for 42c.

PvP Set
Antiseptic-Soaked Dressing (Purchased from Angelique Butler in Dalaran for 25g)	Pauldrons of the Wardancer (Serpentshrine Cavern - dropped by Hydross the Unstable)	Ecclesiastical Cuirass (Purchased from Smith Hauthaa in the Isle of Quel'Danas for 520 JP)	Spiked Colbalt Legplates (From a Common Blacksmithing Pattern learned at their respective trainers)
Felsteel Gloves (From a Rare Blacksmithing Pattern that drops in Auchenai Crypts)	Stormforged Belt (From a Common Blacksmithing Pattern learned at their respective trainers)	Emerald Sabatons (Zone drop, I'd suggest checking the AH if unsuccessful in your farming)	Keen Obsidian Edged Blade (Onxyia's Lair10 - dropped by Onyxia)

Note: Again, I hide my cloak due to weapon clipping, but Might of the Ocean Serpent (579 JP), found in Dalaran, somewhat matches the colour scheme of this set. Arcanist Uovril sells the cloak at the Silver Enclave for Alliance and Magister Arlan sells it at Sunreaver's Sanctuary for Horde.

Elegy.

With a nod of dismissal, Aesadonna stepped away from Beefbus and pulled her cowl over her bright blonde hair. She needed some time to clear her head; they had grown far too close during their mutual struggle to purge Azeroth of Deathwing's corruption. It was a bond that was unnatural, one she would have to immediately sever. "For his own good", she whispered hoarsely.

Before she had the chance to mount her beloved skeletal horse, Deathblossom, to ride anywhere but near to Beef as an attempt to escape the frustratingly unknown, she felt a strong hand grip her shoulder. Stiffly, she turned, already knowing who was standing behind her.

"Aesa", Beef plead. The look of disquiet so clearly written on his handsome face was enough to give her pause. "I...I.." she stammered, recoiling from his sudden burst of emotion. "I'm so sorry", she replied, lowering her eyes to avoid his gaze. Shrugging off his touch, Aesadonna immediately summoned a Death Gate and stepped through to Acherus, her sanctuary.

"Home sweet home", mumbled Aesadonna. She threw back her cowl, shaking out her hair with a grimace that distorted her winsome features. Even before her death, she had the unfortunate habit of letting men complicate, well, everything. Beef was no exception.

This was my entry for my Effy's raider challenge; a portrait of Aesadonna. Note that I am by no means a master wordslinger, so pardon the clumsy prose! Also, it's not easy to put on a serious face when your fiancé named his mage BEEFBUS, just sayin'.

Transmog: Dungeon Sets.

At first, I thought Transmogrification was quite possibly the silliest thing that Blizzard has rolled out in my six years of playing WoW. That just might have been the bitter Death Knight side of me speaking; we have way less tier to play with than everyone else since we are the new kids on the block! Even though I never liked the process of looking like a hot mismatched mess while in the process of obtaining new gear, each piece showcased my accomplishments in tackling new content. After playing around a little with the feature on the PTR, I wasn't expecting to actually 'Mog on live...

...Until I saw they re-added Quartermaster Ozorg who sells the two sets of Death Knight starter gear at dirt cheap. Considering that they are two of my most favourite sets of gear ever, I hauled ass to Warpweaver Hashom, thew my gold at him, and have not looked back since!

But, enough backstory... here are a few complete dungeon sets that I find aesthetically pleasing.
