Who is Avallac'h?
This is Avallac'h
(Note, this character comes from an "adult entertainment" video game Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, that features drug use, drinking, nudity, grizzly-gory violence, rape, physical and sexual abuse of women, and a lot of on screen sex. You must be 18 or older to buy the game. Assume all videos and pages featuring Avallac'h are NSFW. Avallac'h is an evil psionic Elf sorcerer. This guy's excessively violent, a major pervert, a drug addict, kidnapper, murderer, rapist, a sadistic abusive womanizer, and a viciously violent radical religion crazed extremist.  You've been warned.)

FAQs:
Yes, you can take pictures.
You don't have to ask to take pictures of the car,
but please ask first before taking pictures of me.

I've gotten lots of questions about can you find me in the CosPlay skits, dances, masquerades, or contests?

I am what is known as a "hallway cosplayer" (meaning you'll see me mingling in the hall of the convention with other cosplayers)
and am OtherKin (meaning I do not simply dress as my character at events, but become the character every day of my life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year) and thus you can encounter me in full cosplay ANY PLACE not just at cons.

No, I'm not an actor, I do not do the dating games, dances, or masquerades. No interest in such things.
No, I will not join your group in a skit. I don't do skits. Sorry, it's not my thing, I Just don't do them.

No, I do not enter the workmanship contests.
I am driven by my love for the characters, not winning prizes
and have no incentive to enter such things.

While I'm not doing an official book signing at PortCon, you are more then welcome to bring books for signing,
and if you catch me in the hall, I'll be more than happy to sign them for you.

Thank you!

PortCon takes place in 4 separate buildings: the 2 DoubleTree towers, at the Maine Mall across the street, and starting in 2018, now also in the new Hilton building next door to the two towers. Almost ALL the events I attend are in the second tower, the shorter one at the back of the gardens, seen here --->>> In between events, you can usually find me in the main hall of the second tower hanging out with other CosPlayers. We are the annual HallWay CosPlayers of PortCon and we'd love to have you join us!

I will be there at all days of the event. I live around the corner from the DoubleTree Hilton where the convention is held, so you can usually expect to see me arrive between 7AM to 8AM. (Yes... 2 HOURS before the doors open, the lines to get in ARE that long! If you arrive at opening time, you won''t get in the building before noon time at BEST.) I typically leave around 3PM to go eat, and return around 4PM (this time fluctuates depending on the daily event schedule. We, my boyfriend will be there, usually go to SubWay at the BullMoose mini-mall) Other then leaving this one hour for lunch, I stay at PortCon all day till midnight/1AM

IMPORTANT NOTE: 
PortCon is the ONLY convention I will be at in 2018!

I have been CosPlaying since 1987, 2018 is my 31st year as a CosPlayer.  In that time I've done 200+ costumes and usually am seen at as many as 12 events each summer. I know, you usually expect to see me at lots of events throughout the year, however, I've been doing this for 31 years now, and both my age and my health are preventing me from being very active of late. 

I have arthritis, hip dysplasia, Parkinson's Disease, Autism (Kanner's Syndrome), PTSD, have 3 ruptured discs in my spine, am blind in one eye and fast going blind in my other eye, am deaf in one ear and can not hear well in the other, and since being attacked by a stalker who left me paralyzed for 5 months and 18 months relearning to walk, I'm now on a cane. My health is not good of late and I am no longer able to make full season of event runs. While I have no plans to retire from CosPlaying, I will be doing far fewer events than you saw me doing in the past.

Since 2013, I've only CosPlayed disabled/crippled characters who use a cane or staff to walk, thus allowing me to incorporate my cane into the CosPlay. That is the case this year. The character Avallac'h is both elderly and crippled and that is why I picked him to CosPlay. The Avallac'h CosPlay includes a staff, which will be replacing my cane. 

PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH THE STAFF! 
It is NOT a prop!
This is an ACTUAL MEDICAL GRADE staff 
that I have had custom made for this costume.

I know people like to touch my extremely elaborate, over the top CosPlays, but please be aware, 
I am EXTREMELY CRIPPLED and RELY HEAVILY on the cane to be able to walk.  
The staff you will see with this costume is real, and I CAN NOT walk without it.

(If you didn't know I am a senior citizen, I'm not sure why, but most people tend to think I'm some 20 to 30 years younger then I actually am, but, yes, I'm old enough to be your grandmother, in fact, you're grandmother is probably younger than me. I seem to be older then most of my fans' grans these days. I does get tiring, young kids in their 30s walking up to me and saying "Gee I wish I was young like you, I'd date you." You're in your 30s, that's means you're a child to me. I was YOUR age back in the 1970s - 40 years ago.)
