“[I am] Queen Caotl, Fashionista Master, [and] Diva of the Eastern Kingdoms,” Queen Caotl said when asked to introduce himself.
For two years now, Caotl has worked in the Cathedral Square, helping the people of Stormwind with their numerous outfits by offering ratings to those brave enough to withstand his judgement.
“You just walk up, he eyes you over, then either compliments or insults you,” former paladin Jalina said.
On the subject of insults, Caotl lives a lifestyle of harsh honesty.
“I started doing this service to the community because I realized how desperately it was needed. We shouldn’t have to walk down the road and want to throw up,” Caotl said.
According to Caotl, while some people may call what he does a fashion show, it is more of a public service. Caotl offers ratings on outfits and offers critical advice.
“I only saw the potential for the ratings after people told their friends about my helping them and was mobbed at inns,” Caotl said, describing his inspiration for his shows.

Most surprisingly, Caotl’s services are completely non-profit.
“The only rewards I need are the looks on the faces of the people who get tens,” Caotl said.
Despite his lack of profit from the ratings, Caotl still manages to live a lavish lifestyle.
“Most of my money comes from donations that people make when or from people who pay me to find them good outfits,” the Fashion Queen said.
It is often wondered whether or not Caotl’s ratings are good or bad for the Cathedral District.
“It tends to draw a pretty big crowd, which can make people rowdy and prone to cause trouble and chaos,” Paladin Rosalinde Cinderborn said.

According to Cinderborn, people tend to get impatient in the long lines. Others are unhappy with their rating, and often try to retaliate. Caotl has been known to have been attacked by disgruntled contestants.
“The worst are the stalkers,” Caotl said.
Are Caotl’s shows causing issues? It’s certainly a question the people of Stormwind need to ask themselves. However, the Cathedral of Light doesn’t seem to think so.
“I was the Queen of Fashion first, [but] I learned the ways of the light and was anointed after a year or so of doing [the shows],” Caotl said.
According to Bishop Farthing, ever since Caotl began doing his judgings the cathedral’s congregation has increased heavily.
“I guess it brings life to the place,” Westock of Outland said, whose outfit was rated an eight by Caotl.
During Caotl’s judging, over thirty people arrived to spectate and be judged. The crowd was massive.
“How many people come to the Cathedral otherwise? Not many!” Caotl said.
Along with Caotl’s fashion advice, the Fashion Queen also designs clothing.
“All of my outfits are custom made and I do have my own line. Right now, I’m specializing in baby outfits,” Caotl said.
It’s clear to many that the regularity of having Caotl around is almost as iconic as the stability the entire cathedral brings. The majority of Stormwind’s community is glad to have him back, and looks forward for what he does next.
