DATE COMPLETED:
-June 2016
THOUGHTS:
-I started Dragon Age Origins after hearing my friends rave about it. I loved the detailed lore and compelling characters. I chose to cosplay Morrigan because she was such a departure from the characters I usually cosplay and I wanted to challenge myself with new techniques such as using foam and pleather.
