| | |
| | | Bycloke |
| '''Gender/Physical Description:''' Female, petite figure, pink mid-length hair, occasionally in pigtails. Almost always wearing a dress, although the exact style changes. Frequently in EGL.
| | |
| | | Hello World |
| '''Personality/Habits/Hobbies/Behavior:''' Outwardly cutesy, but actually vindictive, forceful, and jealous. Difficult to please. High standards and expectations. Hobbies are dressing up in EGL and cosplay, as well as manufacturing said cosplay. A side hobby is drama and gossip. Occasionally has moments of genuine naivete.
| |
| | |
| Character can be toned down to be more cutesy than bitchy, especially as a foil to /fa/.
| |
| | |
| '''Relationships:''' In some sort of relationship triangle with /fa/, /fit/, and maybe /sp/ sometimes but only for this date, and I ''swear it doesn't mean anything you dumb oaf''.
| |
| | |
| '''Job:''' A college or high school student, with a part-time low-skill job. Alternatively has a sugar daddy.

| [[Image:1267133569549.jpg|thumb|right|/cgl/-tan variant: Bagman]]
| |
| | |
| '''Gender/Physical Description:''' Male in his early 20s, a crazy cross-dresser who will never take his bag off. The bag is often labeled "/cgl/." People also refer to him as Bagman. Is often wearing a self-made knockoff costume of Kirsten Dunst's [[weeaboo]] outfit, although has very many outfits. The constant thing between all the costumes is the bag. Will sometimes be seen in nude picture.
| |
| | |
| '''Personality/Habits/Hobbies/Behavior:''' Attends countless anime/manga and video game conventions, and loves cosplay. Can be antisocial or awkward due to Asperger's syndrome. Tries to conceal his inner weeaboo by releasing his fanboy thoughts onto coscom. Often trolls females whom he considers bitches and whores. Will photoshop his own pictures badly. Is incredibly two-faced: /cgl/ will gladly help you with your costume, but then will go drown you in drama behind your back. /cgl/ only comes out of his room for conventions, where he might go stalk /a/ and drink with /co/.
| |
| | |
| Due to his cosplay experience, he can change clothes incredibly quickly. Also has unparalleled skill with sewing equipment and prop-creation.
| |
| | |
| '''Relationships:''' Holds few relationships due to his oft-changing appearance and almost-elitist attitude about cosplay. Does have an on-again, off-again relationship with /a/, whom he sometimes stalks for copies of new series. Constantly bickers with /fa/ about whether lolita is a fashion or a costume. Has a love/hate relationship with /y/. /c/ thinks /cgl/-tan is very skilled in his costuming, but that something is not quite right about him.
| |
| | |
| '''Job:''' Occasionally works the odd job (i.e. Costume Bar) to save up money for costumes, anime/manga, and convention costs. Will engage in prostitution to afford brand-name items, but mostly leeches off elderly parents.

| ===/cos/ and /egl/===
| |
| | |
| Often proposed, but seldom illustrated is a dual split of /cgl/ down the lines of /cos/play and /egl/. The two are quite different scenes, after all.

| ==Meta Notes==

| ''I HEARD SHE BOUGHT 50 DICKS OFF EBAY AND SUCKED THEM ALL!!''
| |
| | |
| /cgl/ was introduced to 4chan on April 7th, 2006, along with 10-or-so other boards. It has been in operation ever since.
| |
| | |
| /cgl/ has the distinction of being one of the few visibly female-dominated boards on [[4chan]], and has a reputation among other boards for being filled with "3D Pig Disgusting" and "Bitches and Whores." /cgl/'s occasional female hygiene threads do nothing to dispel the first notion, although the second is a [[skub|subjective]] matter. Even then, /cgl/ has a penchant for drama, personal vendettas, [[Namefag|namefagging]], shameless self-promotion, and having a ridiculously high standard for cosplay quality.
| |
| | |
| That said, /cgl/ is also rather helpful on the whole, having a large number of tutorial images, recommendations, protips, and convention meetups. /cgl/ overlaps with /fa/ on some points of fashion (notably EGL) and some day-to-day things like hair and makeup, and with /fit/ on the points of weight loss and body shape. /cgl/'s entertainment interests align with /a/, /co/, and /v/ (not /tg/ or [[LARP|LARPing]]), and it is one of the few places on 4chan where posting a [[My Little Pony|pony]] does not result in immediate thread derailment, deletion, or banishment. Generally speaking, /cgl/ cares less about what form of entertainment it consumes, and more about making good cosplays (or good [[drama]]).
| |
| | |
| It's also one of the few boards that doesn't seem to mind [[Board-tans]] as much.
