The ManBearPig Incident

This is GM Salvatore writing. Things have been really weird lately which is why I haven't been posting lately. You see, last week, our resident "warlock" Frater Invictus, offered to do an experimental black magick ritual. Our dialogue went along something like this:


Frater Invictus: Greetings Grandmaster. I have an interesting proposal for you and no it doesn't involve gay sex.

Me: What do you have in mind, Frater?

FI: I've been experimenting with chaos magick and I've done some fascinating results in evoking fictional characters. Have you ever watched that South Park episode with Al Gore?

Me: Yes I- GASP! You mean-?

FI: Yes. MANBEARPIG.



We can now use ManBearPig to inflict harm upon our enemies.

Me: What are we waiting for? Lets go!

Soror Lux and I went to Frater Invictus' house to witness his ritual. It was a ritual heavily influenced by shamanism and witchcraft. After ingesting large amounts of nutmeg, FI did a banishing ritual before chanting "ManBearPig" while beating his tambourine. Fifteen minutes later, he stopped because he claimed to have sensed ManBearPig's presence. FI requested ManBearPig's power to ruin our rival cosplay groups. FI thanked ManBearPig for his time and did a banishing ritual.


From that moment on, things REALLY got weird. It's a good thing Soror Lux and I do our daily prayers to the Cosplay Goddess because ManBearPig was messing with us. Doors were mysteriously opened, objects flew around and the unnerving thing was that Soror Lux's cat kept on hissing for no reason at all. Nobody got hurt but it seems that the poltergeist really messed our our PCs. We are pretty sure it was the work of ManBearPig.

Right now, things are back to normal. The PCs are fixed and Soror Lux's cat has reverted back to her lovable feline self. Despite the failure, the Order will try again to control the destructive power of ManBearPig and use it against our enemies. One day, the Order will reign supreme.


We are the Cosplaynati. We summon a fucking cartoon character.

The Order in the Words of Secretary Lux

Good Day, ladies and gentlemen. This is Lux, secretary for the Cosplaynati. While I'm not as flamboyant and over-the-top as our supreme leader GM Salvatore, I'm more concise and straightforward with my words. Let me explain what the Order really is.


The Order of The Cosplaynati is basically an ambitious cosplay group determined to rule the world. When I mean the world, I mean the cosplay world. I'm not as aggressive as the other members but I help in keeping the Order, well, in order. I do most of the work in maintaining stability within the group. When there's trouble brewing internally, I'm there to fix it.


The Order is a nice group. Really. We may have a sinister image but we're like a nicer and stealthy version of Warhammer 4k's Chaos Marines. Sure most of us go nuts all the time but we're still willing to reason. Just don't wear lousy costumes in front of them. If you do, they'd be likely to berserk.


Trust me on this, the Order isn't really that bad. Heck, on afternoons we have a tea parties over at my place. When it's tea time, the members retain some enough sanity to enjoy some Earl Grey and butter cookies. We don't take kindly to outsiders but if we like them, we consider them as friends.


As closing remarks, I will read passages from the Book of The Cosplaynati to instill inspiration in not only our members but also non-members who genuinely seek awesomeness.

"I, the One and True Cosplay Goddess, bestow my love not only to my devotees but also to non-believers and even oppressors. I am beauty and adoration incarnate. I will always be there to help cosplayers and non-cosplayers. I'm never gonna give you up. I'm never gonna let you down."
