unConventional: Cosplay Gets Real! [Recruiting]

[Captain Whitebread]

I'm seeing a lot of familiar faces in here and I love the concept!

Dave Murphy AKA DARTH MAUL!!!!!

Gender: Cis-Male
Age: 50
Occupation: Commercial pilot
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Cosplaying As: Darth Maul
General Appearance: Average in height, slightly thick around the middle and mostly bald, nobody looks at him twice unless he is in uniform.  For some reason, chicks dig the uniform.
Faceclaim: Mark Strong


Brief Bio and Background: All his life, Dave wanted to be a pilot, because that was the closest he could get to being Luke Skywalker, even though he was more a Darth Vader fan.  Unable to qualify as a fighter pilot in the air force, he took his pilot's license to the world of air travel.  With tens of thousands of hours of flight time, he makes a more than comfortable living.  He hasn't had much of a chance at a home life; he's never in one place long enough.  He's had hundreds of one night stands and occasionally connected for a year or so with a particular stewardess flight attendant but nothing has lasted.

He's carried his love of Star Wars throughout his life and has always though the villains were more interesting.  When he gets the chance and his time off coincides with a convention, he attends.  He's been to conventions all over the world and still marvels at the accuracy of the costumes he encounters.  He generally prefers simpler costumes but for this convention, he's decided to take advantage of a chance he's never had before.  He made friends with a make-up artist and he's going as his favourite character of all time.... Darth Maul, complete with a double ended light saber.

Skills and Talents: Multi-engine commercial pilot's license - he can fly anything from a DC-10 to a Boeing 777
Linguistics - he speaks English, French, Spanish, German and a little Portuguese
Trivia - he has an enormous knowledge of useless information, with a focus on Star Wars and comic books.

Cosplay Persona Abilities: Use the Force - Darth Maul is a powerful Force user, which gives him telekinesis, precognition and telepathy
Lightsaber - Darth Maul is skilled with the ultimate sci-fi weapon, one that can be used for offense or defense
The Scimitar - once a simple rental car, the parking lot now plays host to the Sith Infiltrator called 'the Scimitar', Darth Maul's personal star ship

Personality: Dave is artificially cheerful and artificially friendly, a side affect of his job.  He's spent a lot of time in the company of virtual strangers.  He makes connections quickly but they never last long.  He's actually quite lonely but he's been living the life so long that it seems normal to him.  He's hooked up with a man once in his life in his early thirties; it just didn't work and he chalked it up to alcohol and the 'what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas' attitude. 

He isn't hesitant to approach women he finds attractive; he's used to only having a short time and he has no issue with rejection.

Ons/Offs: Women who know what they want, one night stands, oral (both giving and receiving), prostitutes, mostly vanilla sex/clingy women, women who need to be convinced, bad hygiene, bathroom stuff, bondage

Extras: NA

Gotta say I was considering a Star Wars cosplay myself as well, very great choice there!

[Captain Whitebread]

Gotta say I was considering a Star Wars cosplay myself as well, very great choice there!

I was originally thinking a Twi'lek Jedi but then I realized the most under-used character EVAR was available.  They so misused Maul....

[Marie Reynolds]

This should get interesting someone turned into a sith. Since the our world is not bound by the rules of the force it should be interesting to see how this Darth Maul Turns out.

[Captain Whitebread]

This should get interesting someone turned into a sith. Since the our world is not bound by the rules of the force it should be interesting to see how this Darth Maul Turns out.

Especially with the base character being so socially distant....

Is he going to be a Light Side Sith or a Dark Side Sith....

Marcus Simm is Darth Revan

Gender: Male
Age: 37
Occupation: Professional Cosplayer / Stunt Double
Sexual Orientation: Hetero

Cosplaying As: Darth Revan
General Appearance: Well maintained beard that currently more resembles John Wick's style of facial hair due to a previous Cosplay that he had done at another Convention. Marcus keeps himself in fairly fit shape for both of the jobs that pay his bills.

Faceclaim: Daniel Volovsek

Brief Bio and Background: Recently hit a bit of a break in the business, actually being a listed stunt double for Keenu Reeves himself. These roles helped propel his other profession, and of course marketing for the roles he was doubling anyway. This Con though was not something he was hired for, it was just something he wanted to come to for fun, loving the culture of comics, games, movies and all that in between as when he isn't working he quite avidly involved in a small scale D&D twitch stream or playing video games.

Skills and Talents: Pre-Persona merge; he was a decent enough distance runner, in fit shape and possesses a whole lot of lore about his various passions like Star Wars, LoTR's, D&D and the like. Also, used to make some of his own costumes, like the Darth Revan attire that he wore to this Con. Speaks English and Spanish. Post-Persona Merge; Mastery of Military Tactics, Strategy. Military Training, Mechanical aptitudes, Alchemy and gifted intellect.

Cosplay Persona Abilities:

The Force / Sith Magic
Knowledge of Dark Side Rituals
Lightsaber

Personality:   Marcus considers himself just a fairly average guy but one that has gotten extremely lucky in his life in being able to make a living off of the things that he loves. A kind hearted person and easy speaking even around those that he does know. Despite this, he only really opens up around those he is close to. The merge with Revan not having had an affect on his personality as of yet, but he can feel it humming around him, inside of him and threating to plunge him into that brutal calculating Sith Lord's very mind.

Ons/Offs: Rough, Vanilla and a lot in between, prefers being in a Dominate role. Oral (giving / receiving) / Offs: Vore, Gore, Bodily Waste, extreme blood, mutilation.

Extras: NA

Oh, I can either see that working well or NOT working well.  There is going to be no middle ground.

[Gannameade]

Honestly I am overwhelmed by the  aspect  of detailing all of Zatanna's powers. So still working out  what I want to do.

Supers is my thing so if you need a hand let me know. 

[Marie Reynolds]

Thanks Gannameade, I went with  cosplaying as Daisy Johnson AKA Quake from Marvel. Only one power and alot more skills.  I am more in my comfort range with that.

Captain My Captain!

Glad to see you!

We need to chat soonish!

NP at all more than glad to help anytime.

[Captain Whitebread]

As I recall, she can do anything as long as she recites the spell (essentially a description of the effect she wants) backwards.

Incantations - the ability to perform feats of real magic by speaking incantations backwards (eg Fireball would be emalf fo tsrub evisolpxe)

Think D&D spells and describe them backwards.


Absolutely Gannameade!  Yours is one of the names that drew me...

[Marie Reynolds]

Zee's list of powers is like 20 of them on top of her iconic powers.

[Captain Whitebread]

You could always cut and paste from her wiki page.....

[Marie Reynolds]

Oh I  know but the I would have to sort through and figure out which ones to start with and build a timeline just for powers cause she has had some much growth and  my anxiety was just like nope.

[Captain Whitebread]

Well, you could always cosplay a particular era of her appearance in the comics and go with that power set.

[Gannameade]

As I recall, she can do anything as long as she recites the spell (essentially a description of the effect she wants) backwards.

Incantations - the ability to perform feats of real magic by speaking incantations backwards (eg Fireball would be emalf fo tsrub evisolpxe)

Think D&D spells and describe them backwards.


Absolutely Gannameade!  Yours is one of the names that drew me...

OH stop that now you are making me Blush! Not an easy feat I assure you.

Yeah it can be a lot, but she can be limited.  Bound and gags work well...too!!   

[Captain Whitebread]

Mmmmm...  hot girls in bondage.

Oh wait, my character doesn't like bondage, dammit.....

[Marie Reynolds]

You could always change that off  nothing stopping you.

[Captain Whitebread]

I put it there for a reason.  No need to change it simply because it might be inconvenient.

[Marie Reynolds]

fair enough

[Gannameade]

Mmmmm...  hot girls in bondage.

Oh wait, my character doesn't like bondage, dammit.....

that is too bad....more b-girls for me!!!

Mark Taylor is Batman

Gender: Male
Age: 27
Occupation: Professional Cosplayer
Sexual Orientation: Hetero

Cosplaying As: Batman from Batman '89

General Appearance: About 6 feet tall, he stays clean shaven to keep up the “Batman”/Bruce Wayne look. When not in costume he can be seen in suits similar to what Bruce Wayne would wear from the 1989 Batman film, black bowtie being a key feature.

Faceclaim: Michael Lee

Brief Bio and Background: Mark fell in love with the Batman franchise as a whole, but something about the 1989 suit that Michael Keaton wore really spoke to him. After he went to his first Cosplay convention at the age of 18 he noticed a lot of Michelle Pfieffer style Catowmen running around and decided it was going to be a good idea to be that version of Batman. Having a good competent knowledge of crafting, and getting a large supply of foam rubber he went about making the suit. It lacked the Kevlar plating and he used actual combat style boots instead of the Nike shoes that Michael Keaton had actually worn, but the suit had the correct look to it, and that was the most important part. He even managed to pickup an automatic bola shooter and after watching some Hacksmith Youtube videos was able to craft a grappling gun for the utility belt as well, and some batarangs to boot.

His set up was good enough to get paid sponsorships to show up to conventions, parties, photoshoots, and soon those paid all the bills.

Skills and Talents: Crafting, minor kickboxing knowledge, able to disguise his voice to be  deep and gravelly like Batman

Cosplay Persona Abilities: The ability to take a beating due to a protective suit, excellent kickboxing skills, good use of his given weapons.

Personality: Can be aggressive/macho towards other males and weak/damsel in distress type females. When faced with a strong willed female he loses himself quite a bit, and is far less effective in conversation or a fight.

Ons/Offs:
ONs
Physical violence. I love fight scenes and to me they are some of the most erotic parts, don't ask me why I am not completely sure. I don't always require them, but they are a lot of fun for me.
Seduction
Being tied up - handcuffs, ropes, chains, whips
Being forced to please sexually
Being denied an orgasm
Verbal abuse with the exception of Small Penis Humiliation
Blackmail
Collar and leash play
Forced orgasm onto superhero costume
Dominant badass women

OFFs
Anal. This one is non-negotiable sorry.
Scat and Waterplay
Extreme abuse of my character's genitals. I understand getting kicked in the nuts once maybe twice, but repeatedly is a little over the top.
Being put in a position of dominance over my partner sexually. I don't like it at all.
Smoking
Pregnancy


Extras: Some of the mannerisms described are based on a deep analysis of Batman’s fights/encounters with Catwoman/Selina in Batman Returns

I'm still here.  I just haven't been able to decide on a character to cosplay.  I don't know why it's been so hard to try to narrow this down. 

[Manaan]

Number some options then roll a dice
