Daemon Targaryen

For a third pop culture character that is highly popular this year, let’s look at Daemon Targaryen. This character wears a variety of looks. For this one, we took inspiration from his outfit from Laena’s funeral. We combined the Black Jules Long Leather Jerkin with the Leomar Canvas Shirt in black. On the bottom half, you can wear the Kasimir Canvas Trousers in black with the Beowulf Leather Belt. Finish off the look with the Laced Medieval Boots. These characters are very popular this year, perfect for your Halloween costume.

Pop Culture D&D Characters

If you are a Dungeons and Dragons fan and want to dress up as a D&D character for Halloween, never fear. There is definitely a pop culture character for you. One of our favorites is Jester Lavorre from the popular D&D series Critical Role. For this popular tiefling, there are a lot of pieces to put together to get her distinctive look. We started with the Medieval Chemise Dress, the Elvish Fantasy Battle Skirt in blue, Tilda Herringbone Rus Pants in black, and the Outlaw Corset. 

Layered over that, we have the Brown Three-Way Sword Belt and the Niko Mantle Cloak. To finish off the base outfit, we have the Leather Celtic Gloves and the Captain Jack Boots. The Distressed Leather Traveler Journal makes a great side accessory. Finally, to truly complete the look and make you look like Jester, you can combine some Epic Effect makeup with the Brown Dragon Horns and the Epic Effect Small Dark Elf Ears Prosthetic.
