Cosplay: Naga Queen Lady Vashj
Series: World of Warcraft
Made by: UmasLady
Year: 2011
Lady Vashj is a character from World of Warcraft, a video game created by Blizzard. She is a sea naga witch, in Illidan’s service and final boss of the Serpentshrine Cavern instance, located in the swampy Zangarmarsh region.
Vashj was the second elf to become a naga, after Azshara, the queen he served. She soon became one of the Elected and rose up among the ranks until she became one of her favorite handmaids and was very angry when the queen chose Tyrande Whisperwind as her handmaid. Vashj tried to kill Tyrande, stopped every time by Elune’s intervention.
As an elf, Vashj was very beautiful, but tried in every way to resemble her beloved Queen Azshara. After her transformation into naga she acquired the serpentine traits of her race, but unlike normal sirens she has three pairs of arms and the head wrapped in a mass of black snakes. Legless, she crawls on her snake-scaled body.
The character of Lady Vashj is firm and stubborn: nothing would be able to make her shake off her ideas and her convictions. Vashj relies on her fighting skills rather than magic, but she is a skilled sorceress. She is unmatched with her magic bow.
This is one of the most complicated cosplay by Umaslady, all hand embroidered with beads and sequins, to make this cosplay, she designed a vast amount of patterns, but the efforts led her to win the first Etnacomics cosplay contest in 2011! You can see some work in progress in her FB page here:
