There may be
dragons at BlizzCon, but the Scarlet Crusade itself was spotted making their mark at this year's
Dragon*Con. An enterprising group of players loosely allied with the guild Suncrown from The Venture Co-H made it into
CNN's video coverage of Dragon*Con, so colorful and detailed were their costumes. "We had
Mograine,
Whitemane and two
Scarlet Marksmen with us," writes
Samanthiel of The Silvermoon Academy (Wyrmrest Accord-H).
The Scarlet Crusade cosplay crew was made up of friends split up between Houston, Texas, and New Orleans, La., who play
WoW together in order to keep in touch. "We had a really great time, but the footwear killed us," Samanthiel says. "Those heels and boots were massacre on our feet, so we only wore the costume for Saturday morning of the con and sometime into the afternoon." While none of the group are professional costumers, they did reap the benefit of
Vexander's (Scarlet Commander Mograine) years of experience costuming, armorcrafting and leatherworking for Society of Creative Anachronism (SCA) events. Peek behind the cut for a gallery of his Mograine project in progress, plus a closer look at a druid-themed hoodie that's attracted much love from
WoW craft fans.
