2025 Cosplay Guests
Welcome our next Cosplay Guest Jaz!! We are so excited to have her coming to the con and helping with Judging the cosplay contests!
With a skillset in altering pieces, intricate makeup that brings her characters straight off the screen or page, and a budding interest in making wigs defy gravity, Yuriio is a newer face to the guesting scene, but very familiar with cons and cosplaying. She’s been in the game for over a decade, and her love for this hobby has been a driving force in her life ever since the cosplay bug bit her. Between creating a successful brand for herself and working full time, she runs a very successful cosplay group, “Catalyst Cosplay”, alongside her partner Azira. The group hosts one of Michigan’s largest, and continually growing, cosplay meetups! She prides herself on building up the Michigan cosplay community, be that in her small hometown or at huge conventions.
SurewormCosplay is a returning face to the cosplay community, after taking a very long and spotty hiatus. She's come back with a renewed passion for learning and continually growing, be it her altering and sewing skills, honing in how to style a wig to her exact vision, or experimenting to see what kind of makeup fits her version of a character. She prides herself on the little details in each and every one of her cosplays, giving a little extra life to the characters she's portraying. Her deep love for fandom culture alongside her admiration for her fellow cosplayers and her community has helped her become a growing figure in the Michigan cosplay community. Alongside her partner, Yuriio, she also runs one of Michigan's most successful cosplay groups, "Catalyst Cosplay". Needless to say, SurewormCosplay dove head first into the cosplay community and refuses to look back!
A passionate cosplayer with a love for bringing characters to life, Orion combines creativity, craftsmanship, and a deep appreciation for fandoms ranging from anime and video games to comics and fantasy. With a growing presence at conventions and online, they continue to inspire others through detailed costumes, makeup, props, and a welcoming approach to the cosplay community over the last 10 years.
