This week’s Blog Azeroth Shared Topic, again suggested by Cymre.
If Blizzard added your main as an NPC in WoW, where would they be located and what would be their function? Give us a shot illustrating the fact.
Songweaver Kamalia would do for Tauren/Kalimdor history and lore what Lorewalker Cho will do for the history and lore of Pandaria. She would live in a hut perched up by this cave (for climate-controlled storage of fragile artifacts) high above the Red Rocks in the mountains between Mulgore and Northern Barrens.
The inside of her dwelling would look a lot like Xarantaur‘s abode.
She would be a neutral NPC, willing to tell her stories to Horde and Alliance alike. She may share her camp with a similar NPC who specializes in all other Horde lore, perhaps someone like Lorespinner Rades….
Alternatively, Modiste Kamalia could take up residence inside Magar’s Cloth Goods in Orgrimmar.
She would give daily quests that would award Sartorial Scrip tokens. In exchange for the tokens, she would sell three differently styled sets for each armor type — an uncommon-quality set usable by level 20 characters, a rare-quality set usable by level 50 characters, and an epic-quality set usable by max-level characters. Like the Replica gear from the Darkmoon Faire or the prize gear from Challenge mode dungeons in Mists, these items would have no stats but would still be usable for Transmogrification. The large design areas on each of these items would be a neutral silver-white, and for additional tokens she would also sell a variety of armor lacquers that could be used only on these items to change them to a hue of the player’s choice. One of the available armor lacquers would be “dissolving lacquer” to revert the item to the original silver-white so that its color could be changed from one lacquer hue to another.
Modiste Kamalia’s Alliance counterpart, found inside Duncan’s Textiles in Stormwind, would be Modiste Effraeti.
Or, because I’m still kind of bummed that there was no “of the Earthen Ring” title available in Cataclysm, I’d be happy just to see
Farseer Kamalia of the Earthen Ring
filling a role like that of Farseer Krogar for an Earthen Ring expedition in a future expansion.
Kamalia et alia 
I’m voting for Modiste Kamalia because she’s going to sell me armor lacquers and dissolving lacquer. Wouldn’t that be wonderful! Maybe mini-Kam could take over as the Songweaver for her.
XD
My concept here is that if you just can’t find the right piece for your Transmogrification Template Kit — just the right belt or just the right boots, et cetera, or the item you want is very difficult to obtain — you could get one with the Sartorial Scrip and then lacquer it to match the color scheme of the rest of your outfit, and still look good while you were working on finding or obtaining the piece you really wanted.
One of the cloth belt designs would, I think, be something very much like the mail Ornate Girdle — the WoW fashion world really, really needs a super-slender cloth belt to wear with the really gorgeous robes, and one that could be colored to match whatever robe you were wearing it with would be even better!
Modiste Kamalia was a similar path I was thinking for my tauren, I like her the best! Though I do like the songweaver too, it’s a nice thing that isn’t in game, exactly.
Great minds think alike! 😀
It’s funny you used the spot in Red Rocks, I was thinking of do a feature on it a couple of months ago 😛
I do like your idea for Modiste Kamalia though 🙂
BTW, I updated my post to include items she’d sell 🙂
[…] Navimie Ysera’s Daughter Frinka – Warcraft St Tome of the Ancient Kamalia Hayfayfay – Closest Dark Image […]
I would totally go visit Songweaver Kamalia in her mountain hut and listen to her spin tales for hours! 🙂
Listen? I’d want you to help out! 😀
[…] knows, it may even be used for Kamalia’s NPC – which came up in a recent Blog Azeroth Shared Topic – sometime in the future. Share […]
