Since its release in 2023, Baldur's Gate 3 has been praised for its achievements in character writing. Whether these were playable or not, many players have found themselves caring about the characters they encountered in-game. Among those characters is Alfira, a Tiefling Bard that players help to write a song. Even when the Tieflings face grave danger, Alfira's optimistic personality is a relief for fans, making her one of Baldur's Gate 3's most likeable NPCs and a recurrent subject of fan art.
Baldur's Gate 3 player StarlitSpectrum decided to show their appreciation for Alfira by cosplaying as the Tiefling. As they wrote on a Reddit post, their Alfira skirt is still missing a few details, but the current results are still amazing.

Baldur's Gate 3 Fan Shares Incredible Alfira Cosplay
Saving Alfira in Baldur's Gate 3 can be tricky if players don't make the right choices, especially if they are playing as the Dark Urge. However, rescuing her and the rest of the Tieflings is a very rewarding experience, since the endearing Bard gets to have a happy ending. Quite a few fans wish that Alfira was upgraded from NPC to full-fledged companion.
Cosplaying allows fans to express their love for their favorite characters while showing off their crafting skills. One Baldur's Gate 3 player designed a wowing female Astarion cosplay, proving the possibilities are endless when fans get creative. The Baldur's Gate 3 community is a very active one, so it's no surprise that players keep sharing their creations inspired by the Larian Studios title after almost a year since its launch.
The success of Larian's renowned RPG is undeniable. Earlier this year, Baldur's Gate 3 reached 10 million copies sold, and the game was crowned Game of The Year on various occasions. However, players were disappointed to learn that Larian Studios handed the Baldur's Gate series back to Wizards of the Coast and the confirmation of no DLC for the game. In the meantime, Larian is working on two new games, both being original IPs, but whether these projects will be as successful as Baldur's Gate 3 remains to be seen.
