basically, the cosplays all must be vaguely connected to something historical or something that CharlesXII can lecture random women about for hours as soon as they ask who I am cosplaying as.

here are the options. requesting XO opinions

1. Astolfo from the Fate/ series. This will allow C12 to wield his incredible knowledge about medieval France (Astolfo is a character from the Song of Roland). he can also discuss how Charlesmagne defeated the Muslims at the Battle of Tours and expand into a discussion about how much he hates Islam. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/-EEAAOSwY4pZZe1Q/s-l300.jpg

2. Anastasia Romanov from Drifters - the Russian Imperial princess. This will allow CharlesXII to open up about his luminous knowledge about Tsarist Russia and the early Soviet period. IIRC, he has written papers based on the "People's Tragedy", a well regarded history of the Bolshevik revolution. He is also currently reading "Red Plenty", an economic history of the early USSR. he will likely also criticize Eastern Orthodoxy on the issue of the "filoque". http://i.imgur.com/o1Mmgkj.jpg

3. Marie Antoinette from Rose of Versailles. This was explained in the other thread, but this is largely a way for CharlesXII to open up a massive lecture about everything Habsburg-related. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/rose-of-versailles/images/1/12/Ladyoscarcap07parallax1.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/400?cb=20130113193913

4. Hosokawa Gracia from Pokemon Conquest. Hosokowa Gracia was a famous Japanese aristocrat who converted to Roman Catholicism, was the daughter of the famous Akechi Mitsuhide, the guy who killed Oda Nobunaga, and the distant ancestor of former Japanese Prime Minister Morihiro Hosokawa. This will allow CharlesXII to lecture random women on the historical nature of Roman Catholic evangelism, especially in the early modern period, as well as his thesis that Spain under the Phillip's was largely responsible for saving Catholicism both in Europe and the New World. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/dynastywarriors/images/f/fa/Gracia-pokenobu.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140927194443

5. Canute the Great from Vinland Saga, the Viking King of England and Denmark. This will allow CharlesXII to utilize his deep knowledge about the Viking period in English history. However, it opens up one of CharlesXII's greatest weaknesses, a relatively poor grasp of historical linguistics, as the Viking Period was crucial in the formation of modern English. This is the riskiest option, because CharlesXII will have to hide his lack of linguistics experience. https://dzasv7x7a867v.cloudfront.net/product_photos/37477167/canute-print-8.5x11_original.jpg

6. Lucius from Fire Emblem. Lucius is a cleric in Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword. This is oddly not a historical figure, but it is a character from the only video game series that CharlesXII has an encyclopediac knowledge of. This is likely because the game is a strategy game, sharing many elements of gameplay with CharlesXII's board games. This can act as a segway for CharlesXII into complicated wargames and long discussions on why he believes Paths of Glory is actually an "easy" game despite its 100 page manual. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/5/5d/Lucius.png/revision/latest?cb=20160721194627

My opinion is that you and c12 should just date each other. When the time comes for a family you can hire a fertile young shrew to carry charles' spawn

it's unfortunately the most obscure one, which means making the costume will be hard
