The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt: Ciri cosplay by Narga-Lifestream

“Hatred and vengeance blinded me … But I shall stand before them in humility. I shall remember the expression in their eyes. I hope the memory of those eyes will stop me making a similar mistake.”

Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon, or Ciri for short is the deuteragonist and main heroine of The Witcher franchise. She’s also known as the Child of Destiny and the Lion Cub of Cintra. She is a princess of Cintra,

“I really love how this costume turned out and I’m pleasantly surprised that it’s pretty comfy to wear,” cosplayer Natalia AKA Narga-Lifestream explains in her first photo, a side-by-side compare and contrast shot of her in casual clothing (a hoody, jeans and flip-flops) and then in full-on Ciri cosplay garb (which she designed and made herself).

This video shows the above transformation, which takes Narga two hours to complete, in more detail. The most difficult part of the Ciri cosplay transformation? “Most time consuming part is the makeup because I love to not hurry with it and [enjoy] the process,” Narga explains.

The following images exhibit some of Narga’s tinkering with photo editing during the pandemic-induced quarantine. “Omg, this hasn’t happened since 2014. I edited my photo myself 😳 Trying to be productive in my isolation work days!”

Narga as Ciri looks ready to run any enemies foolish enough to cross her path through with Zireael — the very expensive, rare, 200 year old gwyhyr forged by the gnomes of Tir Tochair.

Cirilla from the Witcher 3🗡 Full costume made by me @narga_lifestream photography @kmitenkova I always have huge list of future cosplay plans but even the lifetime is not enough to make all of them, since I make costumes myself. Now I think that I should collaborate with other people or costume stores more often, accept help time by time, and maybe mix bought and handmade costumes to produce more content. Last year I borrowed the costume from my friend for just one photoshoot. I wanted to be honest with my followers and I credited an author of the costume under every picture. Surprisingly, even after that I got lots of positive feedback. Maybe because most people are not interested in creation process, they want to see only the final result. 📸 What do you think about it? Do you care about who made the costume and how many efforts were put behind a pretty picture? Or you're interested in final photos only? #cosplayerofinstagram #ciricosplay #cirilla #thewitcher #witcher3wildhunt #witchercosplay #nargaandaokicosplay #gamecosplay #cdprojektred #fantasycosplay

A side-by-side of Narga in her Witcher 3: Wild Hunt ciri cosplay and the in-game model, which accentuates how excellent her efforts and attention to detail are, from Ciri’s ashen hair to the scar on her cheek to her trademark, white-and-brown outfit.

Narga refers to this next series of photos as “Ciri in Novigrad. Repay a few debts – and settle a few scores…”

Ciri in Novigrad. "Repay a few debts – and settle a few scores…" 📸 @kmitenkova Costume/makeup by me (@narga_lifestream) I usually don't like to wear cosplay on public (except conventions, of course) but I enjoyed it that day. Many people recognize the character, told me kind words and asked me to take pictures with them… and usually all this thing happens only at convention, so I was surprised to see that on the streets in "normal life". Maybe it's because "The Witcher 3" is extremely popular and loved in Russia.
