Hi, I’m Cass! 💖🌟✨

Happy HolMat Days!

Life Happened A Lot the last few weeks and with a nontrivial injury, we're keeping it real chill this con.

We'll have a solid chunk of the PikCrew on Friday, a big Twisted Wonderland group on Sat, and another big HeroX group on Sunday! 💖

The "real" Pantone color of the year is Pthalo Green and you're getting Sailor Jupiter pics instead of whatever nonsense "Cloud Dancer" is supposed to be. 💚

A cosplayer portrays Princess Jupiter from Sailor Moon in her princess dress, which happens to be this year's fan-selected color of the year (Ptalo Green) instead of the officially selected "Cloud Dancer" white. The photo has vivid foliage in the foreground and a gazebo in the midground, where the cosplayer spins and her ruffly skirt flares out dramatically. She's giggling with a hand up near her face. The background is full of additional green foliage.

Two cosplayers portraying Qifrey and Olruggio from the hit manga Witch Hat Atelier embrace each other. Qifrey faces away, lovingly but worriedly clutching Olruggio, while cradling the hat on Olruggio's head. Olruggio is in profile on the back side of the hug, facing out into the distance, not realizing the magic that is being cast.

D&D tomorrow! 🎲

We’re uncovering an elaborate political scheme in the capital city of Oro… but it's irrelevant if we all drown talking to the ocean fey (Selkin) next session 😅
What’s happening in your campaign right now? 👀

A cosplayer portraying their Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) original character stands on a fancy marble staircase, leaning on an ornate wooden banister. The room is gold, as is the cape and trim detail on the cosplayer. Their black boots rest of different steps, hand embroidered pants puff out in a Renaissance style, and a dark purple doublet is adorned with gems and Masquerade masks.

“To extend a hand and extend a claw are mighty similar gestures, with mighty different consequences.” 🐉

The Dragon*Con robes are so comfy, they’re quickly becoming one of my go-to throw-on cosplays 💖

A cosplayer wearing robes made of the Dragon*Con carpet pattern stands in profile. She has dragon horns that extend out of a the hood that hangs loosely off her head. She extends a hand of gold claws to the sky and stares at them pensively.

“The city has two faces. Which you come to know depends on whose gaze you are willing to meet.” ✨

I’m so glad I rewore Valor for Otakon this year! So happy to have more shots of one of my favorite OCs 💖

#dndcharacter #occosplay #originalcharacter
A metallic, glassy, blue city rises up behind the model, who is clad in greys, purples, and golds. The dungeons and dragons character “Valor” is a half elf man, sitting dramatically on white marble steps, one foot out and one knee up with his hand resting on the raised knee. In his hand is a D20. His gold and purple cape is draped across the stairs and masquerade masks rest on top of the cape.

Dragon look for the #RenaissanceFaire this past weekend!

Feat @turtlesmithy.bsky.social horns & tail <3
A side-by-side pic of a cosplayer dressed as a dragon. Her outfit is all black but is covered in draped chains and shiny metallic belts. She has large but spindly gold jewelry on her arms, and claws on her fingers. There is an expression of joy on her face as she swishes her tail!

“To climb is to strife and to strive— only from a higher vantage may you see how far you have to fall.” ✨

Val is still one of my favorite cosplays I’ve made (and an OC / D&D PC who still lives rent-free in my brain…) I’m so so so glad @ Marlo.louden (IG) caught on to the vibes immediately 💖
A cosplayer portrays their dungeons and dragons character, “Valor”. A half elf with dark hair in a Venetian Renaissance garb looks out a wooden paneled windows a marbled staircase in the distance. The window light illuminates the decadence of the masquerade masks on their belt and the beading and rhinestones on the doublet. A gold and purple cape flares behind them.
