That's what I did with Judge. I made him ahead of time as a Highlander and kept him in full armor at all times to hide what he looks like (both to conceal the fact that he wasn't the proper race yet and because it was appropriate to his character). However, a lot of the nicer looking gear for RP purposes requires leveling - out of Judge's entire outfit, only his helmet is not level 50. And even now I'm having to level his "proper" job of DRK up to 50 so he can be using the "correct" weapon. I've put a lot of work into him to get him looking how I want even though I rarely RP him outside the Grindstone... and I can totally see why people might not want to go that route.
