Summary
A skilledBaldur’s Gate 3fan has created an impressive Lae’zel cosplay. Using stunning models of the Githyanki’s Greatsword and Shadowheart’s artifact as props, the talented cosplayer has faithfully recreated the fan-favoriteBaldur’s Gate 3character.
Inspired by the game’s aesthetic and diverse cast of well-written characters, theBaldur’s Gate 3community has created some truly impressive homages to their favorite companions. The level of talent and dedication displayed by these artworks and costumes, such as one Reddit user’s recentcosplay of Shadowheart wearing the iconic Wavemother’s Robe, demonstrated the impact of Larian’s Game of the Year Award-winning RPG, and the best can often easily be mistaken for screenshots.
Another talented Reddit user called Frau_Haku has just shared their cosplay of a different fan-favorite companion: Lae’zel of Crèche K’liir,Baldur’s Gate 3’sresident Githyanki fighter. As the first character encountered during the player’s journey into the Forgotten Realms, Lae’zel’s quest for vindication and revenge is one of the longest and most profound character arcs in the game. However, her yellow-green skin, long pointed ears, and mottled skin markings make her one of the more difficult appearances to recreate. Frau_Haku has once again overcome these challenges with another epic Lae’zel cosplay. Defiantly posing with her Githyanki Greatsword and Shadowheart’s mysterious artifact amidst the ruins of a castle, Frau_Haku has brought the character to life with images that could easily have been taken from the game.
Baldur’s Gate 3 Fan Shows Off Stunning Lae’zel Cosplay
The skilledcosplayer initially revealed her stunning Lae’zel costumeto the r/Baldur’sGate3 subreddit in May, when it quickly became the most upvoted vote on the page with over 66,000 votes – almost twice as many as the next most popular post. While some Reddit users have noted that this new set of photos is more heavily edited than her first, nothing can detract from the skill required to create a cosplay with this level of detail. The effects used to emulate the artifact and tadpole’s interference additionally blur the lines between the game’s graphics and reality. Frau_Haku has also previously created many cosplays of popular video game personalities, including other characters fromBaldur’s Gate 3, such as Astarian, Mizora in her demonic and human forms, and Lae’zel wearing her alternative camp clothes.
