As soon as I saw the art for Odin Sphere in a game magazine I knew I wanted to make costumes from it. At first I was considering Elfaria (the fairy queen) before I played the game. I changed my mind after playing it, I fell in love with Gwendolyn. In the game she is a sad but strong character.

I was at a birthday dinner with cosplay friends where I discussed the group idea with Shea. I told her that we could pull off looking like sisters and asked her to look into cosplaying Griselda. Much to my delight she agreed and offered to make all the armor, wings, and headdress!! I said if she is doing all that work I'll make all our fabric parts. Matt offered his prop making skills to make our syphers, he even made them light up! Diana styled our matching wigs from CosWorx. I am so happy with the way it turned out, between all of us we made it happen!

After AX we finally had our group photoshoot with Idolatry Studios that Miyu and I have been planning together months in advance. Shea as Griselda, Miyu as Velvet, Khamryn as Ingway, and Diana as Queen Odette. Thank you so much to everyone involved!
