A former rich kid, rugby player, underground fighter, and debt collector, David King now uses his tolerance for pain and willingness to fight for others to survive killers in Dead by Daylight.  Born as the only son of a wealthy family, David squandered much of his potential because of his combative nature.  When he mysteriously disappeared, no one who knew him was all that surprised, but they never could have guessed that he was now fighting for his life against killers looking to sacrifice him to the Entity.

Katy Chen (played by Awkwafina) is the best friend of Shang-Chi from the Marvel film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.  Katy does not know of Shang-Chi’s mystical past or martial arts training when the film begins, but when his past is revealed and Shang-Chi must undertake a perilous journey to save the world from a dark fate, Katy does not hesitate to join him and his sister Xialing on their quest. As a valet, Katy wears a white button-down and red vest with a black tie.  When she reaches the mystical village of Ta Lo, she receives a weapon and dress made of dragon scales.

Napoleon Marconi (played by Michael Shannon) is the perpetually optimistic patriarch of the Marconi family in the Hulu limited series Nine Perfect Strangers.  The Marconis travel to Masha Dmitrichenko‘s Tranquillum House to work through shared grief, and Napoleon is ecstatic about the possibilities for healing, as well as the fact that Masha has offered them a discounted rate to attend her exclusive retreat.  Napoleon wears a variety of collared button downs and polo shirts with khaki shorts and sensible trousers throughout the show.  In the final episode, he dons a burgundy polo with green tactical pants while he and his family undergo a harrowing spiritual journey (and he sports a gnarly bloody nose).  In another memorable episode, Napoleon–unknowingly under the influence of hallucinogenics–successfully hunts Masha’s pet goat for food.

Phoebe Thunderman (Kira Kosarin) is a main character in Nickelodeon’s The Thundermans. Like the rest of her family, she is training to become a superhero. Her alias is ThunderGirl, and her powers include telekinesis, heat breath, and freeze breath. She is the oldest child in the family as well as the twin sister of Max Thunderman.

Cody (voiced by Peter Oldring) likes to think of himself as a ladies man. The ladies on the island, however, beg to differ. Still Cody has his own kind of charm. Tech-savvy and eager to help his teammates, he is a great asset to the Screaming Gophers until he has to leave the island, not to return to the competition until Total Drama World Tour.

Cosplaying as Cody is a great opportunity to use stuff you might already have in your closet. And if you don’t have the items, you can easily transition your new purchases into other cosplays or your daily wardrobe. A short sleeve yellow polo, grey long sleeve shirt, cargo jeans, and a pair of brown sneakers make up Cody’s outfit. You can add the stripes on his shirt with fabric paint. And if you want to get his messy hairstyle, you can either opt for a wig or style your own in a similar fashion.

Tommy Pickles (voiced by Elizabeth Daily) was a staple in the childhood of many Millennials. He led the group of friends known as the Rugrats, usually getting them into trouble (even if some of it was just make believe). His leadership and adventurous nature drove the whole show, so it’s no wonder people might want to cosplay as Tommy!

There are two ways to go about a cosplay like this. One is to get as close as possible to the original character and the other is to put a slight spin on. To get really close to the character, go for a blue t-shirt, a costume diaper, a prop bottle, a Reptar toy, and invisible shoes like those in this YouTube tutorial. If you don’t want to go the diaper route, you can swap that piece for a pair of white pants and a pair of shoes that match your skin tone. In either case remember to use yellow fabric paint to recreate the iconic yellow tabs on Tommy’s diaper. And while you might want to ditch the bottle if you go with the jeans, keep Reptar nearby. Tommy would!

Adora, aka She-Ra, is the main character in Netflix’s She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. In the eighth episode, she receives an invitation to Princess Prom, which occurs once every decade. Bow explains the event is a ball where all the princesses of Etheria meet and party. Their goal is to recruit the host, Frosta, to join the princess alliance. Glimmer teaches Adora princess etiquette and gives her a makeover for the event. The hair accessory is actually a flower comb pin, as seen in this picture of the back.
