RANT: What kind of Warlock looks like this?

I've started another Warlock alt on Maelstrom so I can play with Diego over winter break. Since I have no high-level characters on the server to give her a hand, I've been relying completely on drops and tailoring to get her items.

Despite that, I end up with this outfit. The vest is a ->Barbaric Linen Vest<-, and the pants are one of the ->Aboriginal Loincloths<-. Which apparently drop on the Horde side. I got them at the AH when I already had the vest, and when I equipped them I went "....shit." (Click for large.)



So I ran around in that for a few days, getting almost constant /whistles and /flirts from random night elf males and gnomes. I started carrying around a ->Simple Dress<- to throw on any time people started doing something dumb.

Last night I finally learned how to make a grey woolen shirt, which looks good with the ensemble and actually covers some flesh. So now it's not quite as scary to look at. Here's a shot of me standing on Van Cleef's corpse after my party got wiped by our dumbass druid healer:



Madeline says now it looks like I'm not wearing any pants, but I still assert that it is better because my cleavage is now hidden from view. I admit that it's kind of cool running around looking like a Norsewoman, but I'm still getting /flirts and /whistles, which gets old very quickly.

I can't call Blizzard sexist on this one, unfortunately, because according to the screenie on Thottbot the guys look exactly the same as the girls in this. The Barbaric Linen Vest may be their fault, though. After the Corsair's Overshirt fiasco, I wouldn't be surprised.

I've given her a sword and a torch to complete the look when I'm soloing and thus not in need of my ->Emberstone Staff<- (okay, in all honesty, I'm just BORED). With those two combined, she looks pretty badass.



But I know people see me run by and go "what the! That's a warlock?" I'm right there with them, in all honesty.
