Around Azeroth: Whatever happened to Snow White?
Regular readers might remember that we often run screenshots highlighting the worst of Azerothian decorating. (Previous examples can be found here, here and here.) This painting, found in the dwarven starting area by Nienda of <Made for Alot> on The Maelstrom-EU, features a sultry black-haired damsel dressed in what on closer inspection appears to be a harem outfit. Oh, and she's wearing some sort of bandit mask. Either the designers have decided to incorporate a bit of R-rated fairy tale into the game, or the Defias Brotherhood have figured out a new strategy to get their late payments from Stormwind.
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.Filed under: Screenshots, Around Azeroth, Galleries

This isn't the first time I've seen this painting; I think it can be found in a lot of buildings around the world.

You know, this is the second time I have seen someone change a stupid internet meme into something clever.
ARRRRGH! I feel so dirty.

I keep trying to get druids into that outfit. It never works and I usually end up being lasercooked or shredded by them.

if "on closer inspection appears to be a harem outfit", she's not wearing some sort of bandit mask, but a veil...

This.

If I remember correctly, this painting is found in Scarlet Monastery on the Library run, as well.

Also appears in area 52, in an empty building in the northern part. I thought about this column when I saw it. :)

It's also in Ravenholdt Manor.

They're dirty minded designers! Did anyone notice the 'love rocket' icon?

it could also be a new Defias Recruiting technique.

Does the basic human female underwear plus a single piece of facial cloth count as a harem outfit these days? I'm so confused...
Schadow Mar 9th 2009 3:16PM
She's also wearing leggings made of a sheer fabric. Combined with the veil it's your basic harem costume.
Duck Knight Mar 9th 2009 10:34PM
Oh, hmm. Never noticed that. I fail.

It can also be seen at the pirate landing in the Fjord.
Watch what the guy says about the paint on top of it...it will make you LOL if you know what he is looking at.

Seems to be a reference to the drawing done in Titanic (movie). But then again, the woman-lying-on-side is a pretty standart art pose...

Snow White is here!

But I dunno, I think the mask is a strong suggestion to what this woman's profession is. We saw a lot of nasty looking Legion demon women wearing a similar mask in BC.
