Carbon Costume

Aubrey is a member of the friend group at the heart of the indie game OMORI.  Aubrey is cheerful but anxious, and has a falling out with Basil, Kel, Sunny, and Hero.  She eventually joins the delinquent gang known as the Hooligans, though she eventually reconciles with her friends.  In the real world, Aubrey has long pink hair she ties back with a teal scarf.  She wears a blue denim mini skirt, black crop top, and colorful shoes paired with a white and yellow jacket.  She also carries a bat with nails driven through it.  In Sunny’s dream world, Aubrey has long blue-purple hair with a bow hair clip and wears a light-colored nightgown.  She also carries a stuffed eggplant called Mr. Plantegg.

Kel is Hero‘s younger brother in the indie RPG OMORI.  Competitive by nature, Kel can sometimes seem a little bratty.  He and Aubrey often bicker over small things, but he cares about her and his other friends deeply.  In the real world, Kel has brown hair and is very into sports.  You can add the design found on the front of his orange jersey with some white fabric paint, then add a pair of basketball shorts and sneakers, both in orange and white, to complete the look.  Kel’s dreamy outfit in HEADSPACE is a little more difficult to replicate because the multicolored checkered tank top is unique.  If you can’t find an exact match, look for tank tops with a soft ombre or pastel colors instead.  Pair it with a purple wig, dark shorts, and a beach ball to finish your costume.

Hero is a childhood friend of Mari in the indie game OMORI.  Hero and Mari often take it upon themselves to take care of their group of friends, which includes Mari’s younger brother Sunny, Basil, Hero’s younger brother Kel, and Aubrey, because they are the eldest of the group.  Hero enjoys cooking, cleaning, and baking.  In the real world, Hero has brown hair and wears a blue sweater, light grey jeans, and blue sneakers.  In Sunny’s dream world, his hair is a deep purple-blue and he wears blue-striped pajamas.

Mari is the older sister of Sunny in the indie game OMORI.  Mari exists in both the real world and in Sunny’s dream world known as HEADSPACE.  Mari is childhood friends with Kel, Hero, Basil, and Aubrey.  She is a kind and supportive sister and friend.  In HEADSPACE, Mari wears a purple pleated skirt, dark purple vest, red necktie, and short sleeve white button-down shirt.  She also dons a pair of Mary Jane shoes and carries a picnic basket.

Basil is a character in the indie RPG OMORI.  Shy and socially anxious, Basil considers Sunny to be his best friend.  He is also friends with Sunny’s sister Mari as well as Aubrey, Hero, and Kel.  In the real world, Basil has blonde hair accessorized with a pink flower clip.  He wears khaki shorts, white socks, a white short sleeve button-down shirt, a dark green sweater vest, and loafers.  In HEADSPACE, where he is more cheerful, Basil has brightly colored hair, wears a flower crown, and carries a potted plant with him.  His clothing consists of a bright yellow-green shirt and blue overalls.

Sunny is the silent main protagonist of OMORI, a roleplaying video game. The player controls Sunny during the day to explore Faraway Town. In spite of his shyness, Sunny possesses a very active imagination – hence his nighttime alter ego of Omori.

Amanda (voiced by Blair Greene-Osako) is the titular character of the indie horror game Amanda the Adventurer.  Alongside her sheep companion Wooly, Amanda explores the world around her while the player slowly realizes all is not what it seems.  Amanda wears a yellow shirt, turquoise shorts, and yellow sneakers with purple socks.  Her hair is styled into two puff balls.

Cody (voiced by Joseph Balderrama) is one of the protagonists of the adventure game It Takes Two.  Cody and his wife May are in the midst of a separation when their minds are transferred into two dolls made by their daughter Rose.  They must put their issues aside to find their way back to their bodies.  Cody’s doll appearance includes green hair, an orange sweater, and patchwork pants.  Top off your wig with a green antenna headband and create your button pin from a paper plate.  You can also cut plates into the shapes of the leaves that appear throughout Cody’s costuming.  Don’t be afraid to take your crafting scissors to your sweater as well in order to achieve the perfectly imperfect look from the game.  Top it all off with some rope wound around your midsection and right forearm, as well as a pair of tan shoes.
