Out of all the costumes I want to do for various fandoms, the ones I am absolutely in love with the idea of doing are Jeska and Phage the Untouchable from the Magic: the Gathering trading card game. The cool thing about the characters is that in the storyline Jeska is killed and resurrect by the Cabal as Phage. So, what I’d really love to do would be to cosplay Jeska one day at a con like Origins or GenCon and Phage the next day.

How I did it: I put myself out there after a convention back in July. I meet a really nice, funny guy during his Friday night stand-up show. We talked a bit during the convention, though he spent most of it working, and after I got home I found him on the forums and we started talking. Forum PMs went to MSN messenger then to phone conversations and then to visits. :) Read how I did it…
Another geeky thing. I love to read comics of almost any kind. I guess comics, like books, are just another way to immerse yourself in another world for a while and I always love being able to do that.
What can I say? I’m a geek. I love roleplaying games. I recently got home from GenCon Indy, which has to be the largest gamer geek convention, and I am in such an RP mood it’s ridiculous. I GM a campaign for Serenity and I’m preparing characters for campaigns for Vampire: The Masquerade (we enjoy old system) and the World of Warcraft RPG. Even thinking about roleplay in the simplest of manners makes me happy.
