What is Cosplay?
Cosplay is a very common event for convention attendees to partake in. As you could probably guess it is named after the fusion of the words costume and play. Basically, cosplayers are people who decide to make (or wear) costumes of specific characters usually from games, anime, books or movies. Sometimes cosplay involves acting in character or doing skits, sometimes it is solely about the construction and presentation of the costume. I am a cosplayer because I find it to be a wonderful creative outlet and something that keeps me busy and inspired.
