There are a few appearances that only appear to be obtainable by specific factions / races / classes. That is, once unlocked, they are unlocked account-wide, but unlocking them that first time requires a specific sort of character.
I'm thinking, for example, of items like
Hatchling Handlers. These appear to require a Goblin starting character, since they are obtained via the Lost Isles quest
Surrender or Else! (which no other races can access). Given that this specific color of this specific model doesn't have any Uncommon or better quality clones, it seems you need to roll a Goblin and (at minimum) play through the Lost Isles through that quest in order to pick up that that particular appearance.
What I'm wondering is if you're obliged to *keep* that Goblin character in order to keep the appearance in your other toons' wardrobes. To put it another way, if you delete that Lvl 15 Goblin at a later dater, do you also lose the
Hatchling Handlers appearance on your Leather-wearing main? Or, once unlocked, does it unlock forever, regardless of whether your account still has the character that unlocked it?
