Cornet Espoir from the Marl Kingdom Games
Cornet (voiced by Koaru Fujino in the original games and Sarah Thomas in the English dubs) is a sweet village girl with a gift for talking to puppets and making her wishes come true. She is the main character in the first Marl Kingdom game, “Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure”. By the time of the second game Cornet is Queen of Marl, leaving the adventures to her daughter.
Long before becoming queen of Marl, Cornet’s look matched her village girl life. A plaid bow in her hair matched her plaid skirt. A white turtleneck, blue vest, brown leggings, and tan boots finished off her look. She also accessorized with a simple necklace and earrings though you can leave those off or just add any you have at home. The finishing touch is a wavy honey blonde wig with bangs. Put it all together and you’re ready to have adventures of your own.
Fireflies from The Last of Us
The Fireflies are a paramilitary group of antagonistic rebels in The Last of Us and its sequel. They fought against military control in quarantine zones and sought a cure to CBI on their own. Though they are more organized than other rebel groups, their uniforms do vary from person to person based on what they can get their hands on. Every member, however, has the Firefly symbol somewhere on their gear.
There are two sets of paramilitary clothes pictured above. One is more of a woodland set while the other would be good in urban or snowy climates where cooler colors would blend in well. Both sets can be turned into Firefly gear through the use a Firefly patch on the clothing, decal on the gear, or dog tag added to the outfit.
Sly Cooper
Sly Cooper (voiced by Kevin Miller) is a renowned thief. Which makes sense for a young man who comes from a long line of thieves. Whether he’s traveling through time, outwitting the authorities around the globe, or sneaking into places though too secure to rob, he’s the man with a plan. And the skills to pull it off!
Since Sly is a raccoon there are a few unique components to his costume. Grey ears, a grey tail, and grey SFX paint will mimic the raccoon look. Of course you can just opt for the tail and ears while skipping the body paint if you prefer!
His clothes are fairly straightforward. A blue cap and black eye mask really tip him off as a thief. A yellow bandana around the neck mimics his collar while a blue shirt, grey pants, and blue boots finish the main part of the outfit. Yellow fabric paint is handy for painting the cuffs of some blue gloves for an extra touch. And, of course, you’ll need his hooked staff.
Inspector Carmelita Montoya Fox from Sly Cooper
Carmelita Montoya Fox (voiced most recently by Roxana Ortega) is an agent with INTERPOL that has dedicated her career to tracking down the Cooper gang. Though Sly has his eyes on her for other reasons (and Carmelita maybe helped save his family once or twice), Carmelita is still determined to bring the whole Cooper clad in one day.
Though Carmelita is no-nonsense her costume still has a creative spark. Fox ears and a fox tail as well as face paint and a blue wig help you get her general look. For her clothes you can choose a khaki overshirt or a brown leather jacket over a blue bustier top and dark blue shorts or pants held up by a brown leather belt. Dark brown shin-high boots finish the clothes off while a Nerf gun and some paint can give you the same weapons Carmelita uses while she fights crime!
Deacon St. John
Deacon St. John is the main character in the 2019 Sony Playstation 4 game Days Gone. Deacon is a former outlaw-turned drifter and bounty hunter who’s searching a reason to live in a world overrun by zombies. Remember to cut the sleeves off of his hoodie.

Kratos from God of War
In the video game series God of War, Kratos is a Spartan who ascends to become a god and exacts revenge on the Olympians for betraying him. In the latest installment of 2018, an older Kratos lives in the realm of the Norse gods with his son Atreus. On the upside, you don’t need a shirt for this costume. On the downside, you’ll want to slather yourself with white body paint to get the fully authentic look.
PaRappa the Rapper
In PaRappa the Rapper, PaRappa is the paper-thin rapping dog and the main protagonist of the franchise. His adventures usually lead to difficult situations which he counters with his catchphrase, “I gotta believe!” and pulls through.
