    I'd have to disagree. Just because of the Torture stuff, Bladequeen Lissandra could be an alternative bdsm dominatrix style. The corset and the spikes give a very dom vibe and I think the cleavage works with this one. Also for some reason I like the green, gold/bronze and purple together. I'll defend Blade Queen any day of the week

      It's not really the horny that is the problem, the problem is that it couldn't commit to the horny, *or* to the chaste thing.
      I mean... just look at the Slaanesh worshipping Eldar- sure, they wear clothes, but *damn* do they COMMIT to the horny.
      Then there's the official figure for one of Slaanesh's Vhaos Marines (can't remember the name, sorry). The dude is _literally_ wearing assless chap armor, with chainmail as the only thing between him and the plate style armor.
      Even the Battle Sisters take that type of horny to heart.
      _That's_ the sort of horny you should go with with Warhammer horny.
