Link and the Groose Flock

Link and the Groose Flock

Left to Right Names: Maddie Langguth, Kim Cruz, Katrina Lundquist , Keira McDonald and Kaitlin Duggan.

The five planned this group cosplay a year in advance as an inside joke. Lundquist cosplays as Link, a character from “The Legend of Zelda” series, and the remaining four ladies dress up as Groose, who appears in “The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.”

According to Duggan, the group spent three hours working on their costumes in their hotel room. They have attended multiple conventions as Link and the Groose Flock.

“It’s nice we’re a joke cosplay every once in a while,” said Duggan.

The group advises first-time cosplayers to have fun and to plan ahead.

“Start early,” said McDonald. “Do not ‘con crunch’ and don’t start your cosplay in three hours possibly in a hotel room.”
