Sunday on the Promenade 123

It’s the Sunday of Noblegarden week, so of course I’ve got a couple of kits that can only be made during the holiday to share — but I’m more excited about the non-Noblegarden outfits in this week’s installment of the Sunday Mog Show!

Countess






Eye of Flame, Soulbreaker’s Crimson Mantle, Soulbreaker’s Crimson Sash, Pantaloons of Growing Strife, Duskhaven Boots, Ebon Filigreed Doublet, Court of Harvesters Tabard, Gleaming Crypt Keeper’s Mantle, Staff of the Sunchaser
Because I’ve decided to postpone restoring the Ember Court until after I’ve finished the other three 9.0 Covenant Campaigns, Kaelinda has begun using her Anima to acquire Renown cosmetic items. The shoulders, belt, and this backpiece were my first purchases, specifically for making this outfit.
Whenever I make an outfit with a tabard, I consider whether I like the bottom part of the tabard enough to use tunic & pants instead of a robe. This is one where I did. There are plenty of Venthyr ladies who wear pantsuits and look stunning in them. I’ll probably make a “Countess II” outfit when I get the red-black-gold coloration of the robe version of the Patch 9.1 Covenant set, though.
This is also the 100th outfit for “Things My Blood Elf Mage Wears”, which makes it doubly special!

Mage Flames



Fire: Firehawk Hood (N), Mantle of Closed Doors (N), Black Velvet Robes, Belt of the Hero, Sorcerer Slippers, Felo’melorn (default, tint 1)



Frost: Frostwind Cowl, Frostwind Mantle, Black Velvet Robes, Sorcerer Sash, Sorcerer Slippers, Felo’melorn (default, tint 4)



Arcane: Firehawk Hood (H), Mantle of Closed Doors (H), Black Velvet Robes, Nesingwary’s Sash, Sorcerer Slippers, Felo’melorn (default, tint 2)
This is an idea that’s been percolating more or less ever since Battle for Azeroth‘s Island Expeditions introduced a blue coloration of the Firelands Mage Tier set — now there was a coloration for each Mage specialization! I couldn’t make it a reality, though, until Shadowlands expanded Transmogrification to allow Artifact appearances to be used cross-spec.

Venus



Crown of Infinite Prosperity, Robes of the Triumvirate, Cloudscorcher Leggings, Staff of Twin Worlds
Kayliddia thought it was about time that she got to wear one of the Slinky Leia Robes.

Spring’s Envoy


Crown of Boundless Courage, Sprite Darter’s Flutterers, Elegant Dress, Staff of the Verdant Circle
Kaurinka has reached Renown 40 and earned the Winter’s Envoy title, but she’d rather be Spring’s Envoy.
She is still wearing her warpaint; she’s just changed the color scheme to white & yellow because that looked better with the dress.
If I had the Spirit Tender’s Bulb, I’d use it with this ensemble —

— but it’s a drop from the Queen’s Conservatory, which I haven’t even started yet.

Queen of Spring II



Crown of Boundless Courage, Sprite Darter’s Flutterers, Elegant Dress, Volatile Walkers, Roffle’s Flowing Raiment, Auchenai Staff
An variation on an outfit I made for Kalaneia at Noblegarden a year or two ago (see Warlock #57).

I’ve also updated Keliora’s previous outfit with some pictures featuring her half-elf blue dragon Alter-Ego, Kazuligosa, wearing it, as it occurred to me that she would look pretty awesome in it.

~*~*~

This series of posts began because I set myself a goal to document new Transmogrification outfits in a more timely fashion. As soon as I create a new outfit, I write it up in a draft post. As the weekend approaches, I start working on taking fashion screenshots, processing them, and updating “Things my [Class] Wears” posts. On Sunday — though not every Sunday — I publish the collection of my recent efforts. Then I begin the next “Sunday on the Promenade” draft post.

Occasionally, I have ideas for themed Transmogrification collections that take several months to completely assemble. Thus, some of these outfits might get re-posted at a later date as part of such a themed Transmogrification collection.

Sunday on the Promenade 122

I had ideas for a couple more Rhinestone Sunglasses outfits.

Pyrrhuloxia



Rhinestone Sunglasses, Nightcloaked Spaulders, Nightcloaked Chestpiece, Replica Wildheart Belt, Depraved Darkblade’s Breeches, Bard’s Gloves & Boots, Wild Combatant’s Battle Staff
Revendreth leveling (and its equivalent BOE set) provided some nice new magenta pieces in leather.
Kaiuna thought she’d look better in this set than Kaurinka would, so here she is.
I named this outfit for a bird in the cardinal family which has similar coloration. The location I chose for the photoshoot is similar to that of the real world habitat of this bird.

Moonberry Fizz



Rhinestone Sunglasses, Sprite Darter’s Flutterers, Vestments of the Shifting Sands, Resplendent Sarong, Warmongering Gladiator’s Treads of Cruelty, Viridium Staff of Alacrity
Making her Sunday Mog Show debut, please welcome Kaelyla-AU! This new Alter-Ego for Kaelinda represents what Kaelyla looked like before the Telogrus Incident that transformed her from Sin’dorei into Ren’dorei.
It was absolutely inevitable that I’d want to use the Rhinestone Sunglasses together with the Vestments of the Shifting Sands. It was also somewhat inevitable, I think, that I’d want to use the Rhinestone Sunglasses together with the Sprite Darter’s Flutterers. So here are all three pieces together in the same ensemble.
Though I earned it long ago, I hadn’t yet used the “Stylist” title. This outfit felt like it actually deserved to be topped off with that title.
The Tauren Death Knight who I am sharing rainbows with in the last picture is a server friend. She, too, loves Tauren and has a personal guild with alts of all the Tauren classes. Whenever we see each other, we exchange greetings with emotes, and sometimes we chat a little bit, too.

Sunday on the Promenade 121

With the Rhinestone Sunglasses becoming a Cosmetic, Moggable item in last Tuesday’s Patch 9.0.5, of course I had to make an outfit or two with them right away. If you’d like more ideas for outfits using the Rhinestone Sunglasses, here are some that I originally created in 2015.

My 11th blogiversary quietly slipped by this week. Maybe I should think about planning something cool for my 12th blogiversary next year?

I have a picture book version of “Beauty and the Beast” that my four-year-old has been asking me to read to him almost every day for the past week or so. It’s a fine version of the story, and nicely illustrated, but I wanted something more. I re-read Beauty and Rose Daughter, both by Robin McKinley; according to my book log, I last read these books 11 years ago. As I was reading about the ever-shifting maze of the castle in both books and in the first book how when Beauty goes riding, the grounds around the castle never seem to be quite the same and go on as long as she wants to go, I suddenly thought, “it’s being procedurally generated!”

Kaelinda had gotten fully caught up on Renown and is now Countess Kaelinda. Kaurinka is still behind, but she’s got fewer Renown levels left to earn than there are chapters remaining in her Covenant campaign. Because I want to run Kaurinka and Kaelyla through Chapters 3 – 9 of the Night Fae campaign in parallel, it’s highly likely that Kaurinka will earn her “Winter’s Envoy” title long before she finishes the campaign.

Infused Rubies


Rhinestone Sunglasses, Courtier’s Mantle, Robe of Pained Absolution, Mana-Cord of Deception (LFR), Widow’s Clutches + Shadowlace Cuffs, Ruby Slippers, Ilka’s Hunting Cloak, Kamui’s Crystalline Staff of Wizardry (H)
Revendreth leveling provided some fabulous items to use with the now-Moggable Rhinestone Sunglasses!

Glam Grandma



Rhinestone Sunglasses, Buccaneer’s Robes, Aboriginal Sash, Cushioned Treads of Glory, Wound Dressing, Void-Warped Oshu’gun Staff
When the Rhinestone Sunglasses became a cosmetic, Moggable item in Patch 9.0.5, that seemed like the opportunity I’d been waiting for to show off Kimorene’s new look with the Shadowlands customization options.

Rite of Passage



Ferocious Gladiator’s Dragonhide Helm, Ceremonial Leather Harness, Fallen Runelord’s Belt, Ceremonial Leather Loincloth, Hozen Warrior Spear
A Tauren-style iteration of the barely-clothed tribal warrior concept.

Sunday on the Promenade 120

Kaelinda completed the 9.0 Venthyr Covenant campaign & armor set; plus a couple of other new kits.

Ebony Soulbreaker




Soulbreaker’s Ebony Vestments with Crown of Eternal Memorial and Netherlord’s Staff of Summoning
The campaign/default tint of the Venthyr Covenant armor set, shown with the Tithe Collector’s Vessel toy because I don’t care for Kael’s Dark Sinstone Chain and I don’t have any of the other Venthyr backpieces yet.

The Ebony Crypt Keeper’s Mantle that matches this coloration of the set is obtained from The Avowed at Revered… and I just don’t have any interest in doing the activities necessary to grind that reputation at this point in time.

RAWR



Thunderlord Chestguard, Wild Gladiator’s Belt of Prowess, Thunderlord Leggings, Raging-Earth Wranglers, Treads of the Den Mother, Highmountain Hammer
I collected the Thunderlord set during Warlords mostly for the sake of having all the Garrison sets. Kaurinka saw it and thought it would be perfect for showing off her warpaint even better.

Lovely Faerie


Fae Revel Masque, Sprite Darter’s Flutterers, Lovely Purple Dress, Bonecaster’s Sarong, Runespeaker’s Cuffs, Kurkenstoks, Auchenai Staff
This was, of course, the natural follow-up to the previous outfit, given the usual overlap between Lunar Festival and Love is in the Air. Kaelyla will go back to her “Full of Stars” outfit when the holidays are over.

Sunday on the Promenade 119

Circumstances conspired, and I have some new outfits to show off sooner than I’d thought I might.

Faith & Fortune


Crown of Everlasting Fortune, Frozen Shadoweave Shoulders, Robe of Faith, Cord of the Loa Worshippers, Soul-Strider Boots, Staff of the Hallowed
And also a great deal of persistence. I’ve been watching for a Robe of Faith on the BMAH for, well, ever. Back in Mists, they got bid up so fast, and my gold supply was so low, that I couldn’t even compete. Once during Battle for Azeroth, I saw one that had just posted, and bid on it, but I wasn’t able to come back and monitor the auction, and it sold for the next bid increment above mine. Then just the other day, Kaelinda happened to be turning in a Favor to Ta’xera at the Shadowlands BMAH, and there was a Robe of Faith that hadn’t been bid on yet. This time, I was able to check on the auction at intervals. I had just checked on the auction, and the time remaining had recently switched over to Short, when another Mage came into the BMAH. We engaged in a bidding war for several minutes. By now, I had enough accumulated gold supply to make several bids before I had to leave the BMAH and go up to the Wanecrypt mailbox to collect my returned bids before I could bid again. Eventually, the other Mage gave up and wandered off. I waited out the remaining time, just in case someone else came along… and for 37690, the Robe of Faith was mine!

Festive Faerie





Fae Revel Masque, Sprite Darter’s Flutterers, Festive Purple Dress, Kurkenstoks, Staff of Haunted Memory
A combination that just needed to be. Kaelyla needed to be the one who wore it so I could show how it would look on All The Elves. I was intrigued to see some of the new customization options showing up on the transfigurations to the other Elven races — jewelry on the Blood Elf and a facial scar & leaves in the hair on the Night Elf.
The mask looks particularly fetching on the Nightborne, and would probably look fabulous with the Nightborne Heritage Armor.
Kaelyla will change back into her previous outfit when Lunar Festival is over.

Fading Forest

Antlers of Malorne, Runetender Shoulderguards & Pants, Swindler’s Vest, Misthide Belt, Cenarion Bracers, Starshroud Boots, Kihrawr’s Scratching Post
Kaurinka was getting a little bored of wearing the Runetender set as-is, and she’d been wanting to show off her warpaint.

Faemoss Wraps


Faemoss Wraps with Soul Keeper’s Column
Kaelinda finished collecting this recolor of the Shadowlace set, which is acquired from World Quests and dungeon drops in Ardenweald, this week.

Sunday on the Promenade 118

New installments of Sunday on the Promenade are likely to be few and far between for the next few months. I want to keep Keliora, Kalaneia, and Kaelyla in their current outfits at least until they’ve finished certain segments of their leveling. Kaelinda probably won’t get a new outfit until she’s completed either her Covenant campaign or one of the WQ sets that she’s currently working on collecting. I’ve got an idea in mind for a Noblegarden outfit, but I’m not, at the moment, feeling like I’ll be particularly inspired to even participate at all in this year’s Lunar Festival and Love is in the Air holidays.

Shadowlace Vestments


Shadowlace Vestments with Soul Keeper’s Column
This is the second-tier crafted set from Shadowlands. The World Quest & Dungeon sets share the same style, in zone-specific recolors that I am very, very slowly collecting, given the paucity of gear rewards from WQs and dungeon drops in this expansion.

Runetender

Runetender set with Duskwarder Censor
This is the Ardenweald recolor of the second-tier crafted/World Quest & Dungeon set from Shadowlands.

I’ve posted the Shadowlands leveling sets on Kaelinda’s and Kerisa’s “Things my [Class] Wears” pages, though I didn’t make a Sunday Mog Show post about them.

Sunday on the Promenade 117

Spring semester classes begin on Monday. I feel like I am about to be swept down a rushing river, to wash up half-drowned on some faraway shore in May.

I’ve updated the relevant “Things my Character Wears” pages for the five characters who’ve gone through the Maw to Oribos with a couple of screenshots from the introduction to Oribos that show off their Eternal Traveler outfits nicely.

Angelic Clarion

Crown of the Fire Festival, Mantle of the Avatar, Aurora Robe, Cord of Uncertain Devotion, Steps of the High Priest, Sigilback’s Smashshell, Ritual Bell
With the holidays over, a few item swaps convert Keliora’s previous outfit into one that can be worn year-round — and is perfectly suited to questing in Bastion, as well!

Full of Stars

Ren’dorei Mantle Belt & Leggings, Popular Pupil’s Mitts, Corpse-Stitcher’s Treads, Rich Purple Silk Shirt, Aluneth (default, Light’s Hope tint)
Kaelyla will choose the Night Fae because she has discovered that being in Ardenweald somehow soothes and quiets the whispers of the Void, whereas the other realms agitate them and make them harder to push away. Out-of-character, however, Kaelyla’s fate to choose the Night Fae is all about aesthetics. This outfit is intended to highlight the similarities between certain aspects of the Ren’dorei visual aesthetic and the Ardenweald/Night Fae visual aesthetic — and to coordinate with a certain on-quest visual effect from the Tranquil Pools. I’ll update the listing on the appropriate “Things my Void Elf Mage Wears” page with screenshots from that quest when she gets there in her leveling journey.

Harvester of Demons

Horns of the Left Hand Path, Felsoul Shoulderpads, Vicious Gladiator’s Felweave Raiment, Felsoul Cord, Ruthless Gladiator’s Felweave Handguards, Spirit Tender’s Slippers, Black Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Ulthalesh (upgraded, tint 2)
On a meta level, this outfit foreshadows Kalaneia’s fated choice to join the Necrolords. In-character, it’s simply about looking badass while wrecking dead dude faces.

Tamagranate

Preened Tribal War Feathers, Amice of the Dreamgrove, Brawnhide Armor*, Cord of the Dreamgrove, Gloomtalon’s Spare Kilt, Rejuvenating Bracers, Rapture
I originally thought I might use the red version of this vest (Wolf Rider’s Padded Armor), but the dark brown version blends with the dark side flaps of the kilt in a way that imitates the look of a long tunic, which I liked better.
The name for this outfit is a portmanteau of “tamarind” and “pomegranate”, two tangy-sweet fruity flavors that the dark brown and dark red colors made me think of.

Sunday on the Promenade 116

Gaudy Clarion



Crown of the Fire Festival, Mantle of the Avatar, Gaudy Winter Veil Sweater, Cord of the High Priest, Pure Aspirant’s Leggings, Steps of the High Priest, Sigilback’s Smashshell, Ritual Bell
Like various of my other Gaudy Winter Sweater outfits, the sweater itself is the only truly holiday thing about it, and could easily be swapped out for another piece to make a year-round version of the kit.
Because the gold-toned version of this Bastion bell offhand is only available from the Venthyr Ember Court, but I wanted to use the gold-toned version of the Bastion mace, I mixed golds and silvers in the rest of the outfit as well.

Gaudy Dreamer


Finely-Tailored Green Holiday Hat, Amice of the Dreamgrove, Gaudy Winter Veil Sweater, Cord of the Dreamgrove, Gloomtalon’s Spare Kilt, Spire of Withering Dreams
I hadn’t made Kasheena a Gaudy Winter Veil Sweater outfit yet, and I hadn’t used this maroon leather kilt in a leather Gaudy Winter Veil Sweater outfit yet, et voila!

Like, Totally, Not a Death Cultist, Okay?



Wicked Witch’s Hat, Mantle of Deceit, Ravencourt Formal Robes, Vicious Fireweave Belt, Whirlpool Gloves, Vile Manipulator’s Footwraps, Malevolence
WTB black lipstick at the Barbershop, kthx?
This kit is based on the Cult Couture/Collaborator’s Robes disguise collected at Aldur’thar and worn at Mord’rethar during the second stage of the Death Rising pre-launch event for Shadowlands.

Bright Wings


Sprite Darter’s Wings with Bard’s Trousers, Deadly Glare Cape, and Sentinel’s Branch
I wanted to do a variation on this set with more red in it. I also wanted to show off how the pointed tails of the tunic are part of the chestpiece model, not part of the pants model. No else had wanted to wear the hat, but Kerithian did.

Sunday on the Promenade 115: Eternal Travelers are ready to go!

Shadowlands launches this week!

As the final step of getting my Shadowlands-bound crew ready to go, I’ve made each of them an outfit incorporating items from the Vestments of the Eternal Traveler.

The pictures for this post were taken at the external summit of Icecrown Citadel shortly before the pre-launch events began.

Eternal Traveler


Vestments of the Eternal Traveler with Fearless Gladiator’s Silk Cowl, Purifier’s Silken Cape, and Pillar of the Dreamgrove
For at least one character, I wanted to use the entire Eternal Traveler set… more or less. I still swapped out the hat (because I like to see my character’s face) and the cloak (because this one is prettier).
I’ve been waiting for a good opportunity to show off Kimmellyn’s gorgeous new look, and this seemed like a fabulous one. I’m not sure which of my Human Mage personas will actually end up being “prime” in Shadowlands, though.

Eternal Wanderer


Vestments of the Eternal Traveler with Pauldrons of Vile Corruption, Zem’lan Crewman’s Cloak, and Sealing Heartstaff
I wanted to use this staff with the Eternal Traveler set because of how its glowing blue orb coordinates with the glowing blue orbs on the gloves of the set. There are glowing blue orbs on the set shoulders, too, but I really liked the look of these shoulders with the robe, so I used them instead.

Eternal Chosen


Mantle & Sash of the Chosen Dead, Royal Blouse, Eternal Traveler Leggings Gauntlets & Treads, Gild’s Crewneck, Etched-Blade Warstaff (stage 3)
At least one of my Eternal Traveler kits needed to use an alternate, tunic chestpiece, so as to show off the pants and shoes of the set. These items from Trial of Valor seemed thematically appropriate for an expedition to the Shadowlands. Kalaneia also insisted upon this aggressive, polearm-like staff. The swath she will carve through the Shadowlands…!

Eternal Planeswalker


Crown of the Champion, Mantle of the Champion, Eternal Traveler Raiment, Frost-Touched Cord, Gloves of the Fallen Wizard, Archbishop’s Slippers, Crafted Cloak of War, Key to the Planes
After seeing Argus, taken by Fel, and Telogrus, taken by Void, this Champion of Azeroth will travel to any plane necessary to defend her.

Eternal Halo


Nightvale Cowl, Shoulders of Foaming Fluids (N), Eternal Traveler Raiment & Treads, Sash of the Unredeemed, Fen Spirit Handwraps + Messner’s Cuffs, Redemption
As I came across combinations with various Priestly items while working on Eternal Traveler outfits for other characters, I saved up the ideas to use for Keliora’s Eternal Traveler outfit.

Eternal Cycle of the Moon


Unwavering Stare, Supple Shoulderguards Waistguard & Gloves (stage 2), Eternal Traveler Raiment, Intensity
I tried some more iconically Druidy shoulders, but they all bumped into Kaurinka’s horns too much. The more streamlined profile of these shoulders just looked better.

Although Kamalia and Karaelia will not be going to the Shadowlands until much, much later, I’ve made them Eternal Traveler kits now so as to have a full set of kits for each armor type.

Eternal Winds


Helm of Unleashed Energy, The Wavemender’s Mantle, Eternal Traveler Raiment & Gauntlets, Earthgrasp Girdle (N), Constellus, Faithless Skyrider’s Shield
For this kit, I wanted to keep the Eternal Traveler’s robe, but bring in some distinctly Shamanic pieces. I kept the gloves, too, for how nicely they echo the glowing blue circle motif in these Shaman Tier 5 recolor shoulders. This Val’kyr-like helm fit the set both thematically and in color. Perfect!

Eternal Protector


Crown of Boastful Words (LFR), Eternal Traveler Spaulders Waistwrap & Gauntlets, Talonrender Chestplate (LFR), Felforged Legplates, Sabatons of the Humble, Ardent Hammer, Ancient Mogu Tower Shield (LFR)
These Mists of Pandaria raid items have just the right shade of gold and just the right amount of fancy in their design to complement the Eternal Traveler items quite nicely!

Sunday on the Promenade 114

Tidesage



Tidespeaker Regalia with Flamecaster Botefeux/Seabreeze
Kayliddia’s parents were retainers on Lord Norwington’s estate. As a child, she showed promise as a magic-wielder, so when she reached the appropriate adolescent age to be apprenticed for a trade, Lord Norwington sponsored her training as a Tidesage. When her training was complete, she served as a Tidesage in Lord Norwington’s shipping fleet. When the Horde raided Norwington Estate, one of her parents was killed, and the other parent and one of her younger siblings who was still at home were seriously injured. Kayliddia requested to be released from her service as a Tidesage to care for her wounded family members. When they had recovered, she further requested to be allowed to fight the Horde alongside Kul Tiras’ renewed allies, the Alliance.

Scholar of the Highborne



c

Orchid Amice*, Highborne Robes, High Councillor’s Sash, Resplendent Sarong, Archmage Slippers, White Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Celestial Stave*
This outfit is a modernized appearance of the outfit Kaelinda is wearing in “Kaelinda at Light’s Hope Chapel”. I wrote that story almost ten years ago, at the beginning of Cataclysm. Although Transmogrification hadn’t been introduced yet, I think the outfit shown in the pictures in the story is likely to be an RP-Clothes kit rather than her actual at-level questing gear at the time. At any rate, the robe was definitely chosen for the RP quality of its name, as the story is about Kaelinda searching out and studying an ancient Highborne manuscript. Because Kaelinda spends much of the story exploring Alliance lands in Human disguise, Kaylynda gets to wear this outfit, too.
The robe has triangular skin windows on the hips, which I have filled in with the Resplendent Sarong to bring in a little more of the magenta color from the bodice.

Red Queen




Crown of the Seducer, Mantle of Perpetual Bloom, Imperial Red Tunic, Wild Gladiator’s Cord of Cruelty, Leggings of the Festering Swarm, Gloves of Abhorrent Strategies, Infernoweave Boots, Cloak of the Betrayed, Rubellite Staff of Intuition
I was trying to figure out Kalaneia should wear next when Kishalla butted in saying, “I want to wear the crown”.

Mystical Dragoness




Crafted Dreadful Gladiator’s Mooncloth Helm, Crafted Dreadful Gladiator’s Mooncloth Mantle, Hexweave Robe (stage 2), Nethershard Girdle, Volatile Walkers, Purifier’s Silken Cape, Staff of Trembling Will
Kazuligosa (whose ears are now the correct length) has to be an Alter-Ego of a Priest so that this crafted headpiece can be used to give her draconic horns similar to those of the humanoid forms of Alexstrasza, Ysera, and Merithria. This kit is a variation on an outfit I originally designed for Kaohana (#42).

It also looks splendid with the Cranewing Cloak.

Aura of Twilight


Mantle of Closed Doors (H), Soulcloth Vest, Sprite Darter’s Sash, Bonecaster’s Sarong, Suspicious Slippers, Chelley’s Staff of Dark Mending
When this palette swap of “Another Blue Dragon Princess” (Blood Elf Priest #7) suggested itself, I knew that Khrysanthemina needed to be the one to wear it — and not just because I already had another idea in mind for Kazuligosa.
