Rules already pertaining to cosplay are found in General rules or the Rules web page are:
o Cosplayers may wear lyricals in place of shoes.
o Oni-Con reserves the right to deem a costume as unacceptable and request the wearer make modifications or change. This is a family friendly event; please use common sense and good taste.
In addition to these rules:
o No live steel weapons are allowed. This is to include chained weapons that don't have blades. (See: Weapons Policy.)
o Do not swing or wave cosplay props.
o Be aware of your costume and your surroundings. Try not to involuntarily smack someone with your huge Zanpakuto or Buster Sword. We understand that accidents happen, but if things get out of hand we'll have no choice but to get more strict.
Um, I feel really stupid for asking this, but what are lyricals?
Lyricals are a type of dance shoe. They're basically sandals without hard soles.
Thank you!
