Full wizard or druid get up with the robes and walking staff, it's a must.

Druids and wizards are definitely on the cards

Communist Lorax

edit: carry an AK, "i speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues. I shoot for the trees, for the trees have no thumbs."

No trees will be harmed if the Lorax is armed

Tree hugger. But with like one of those "free hugs" signs. You're the tree.

it would take entirely too much effort to pull off but my first thought was the faun from Pan's Labyrinth

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

definitely considering it, even as part of a different costume

if my social battery runs out I can just blend into the foliage

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Exactly! Find a clearing and lay it out for a quick nap.

A bear wearing a popes hat

This has layers.

go as a tree disguised as a lumberjack and then walk around whistling innocently

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Really depends on the crowd and goal, I'd think. You got your horror characters like Jason and Texas Chainsaw dude. Pretty much any fairytale character. Could get the bear fucker costume from Super Troopers. Could be a leftist Guerilla. Could be a nudist. Idk.

More of an ethereal vibe like living trees and shrooms and fairies and moons and all that stuff

I usually go as something dumb that only technically fits the vibe though

get people to take pics with me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

sneak into the background of as many pics as you can

And what would fit into a spooky forest theme better than a cryptid?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Go as a garden gnome

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

One of these little mushroom guys from Dark Souls

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Get a Star Trek outfit and go as Dr. Bones McCoy! Get it? DeForest Kelley?..

I'll see myself out

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Could go with a Cthulhu cultist.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You 100% must go as big foot.
