Need Ideas for a Human Cosplay Chess Match~
 
The club I'm a part of is trying to figure out what our next theme should be for our chess match. To give you an idea of what we're looking for, here are some ideas....
Humans vs Non-humans
Magic vs Steel/Fists/Weapons
Fantasy vs SciFi
Anime vs Video Games
Old School vs New School
Children vs Adults
Fandom vs Official
Hunters vs Prey
Brains vs Brawn
Beauty vs Brawn
Digital (Movies, Games, Anime) vs Print (Manga, Books, Comics) // Animation vs Hardcopy
Manga vs Comics
Heros vs Villains
Good vs Evil
Yaoi/Yuri vs Hetero
Eastern (Foreignese) vs Western (American)
Fashion vs No Sense of Style
Hot vs Not
Male vs Female
Any ideas?

Sci-fi vs. fantasy sounds awesome.

Are you coming up with figures from each theme to represent the different chess pieces? /may be horribly misunderstanding

Cosplay suggests to me you guys are operating a human chess match, I think it's be pretty rad to do heroes and villains.

OR - you could to the Justice League vs. The Avengers. |D

Well, we need to fill the entire board, so it needs to be somewhat broad so we all have an option as to who we want to be. Anyway, we need somewhere there we can have 32 dress up in different yet epic outfits. We will then act, in character, out fights. Some fights are legit weapon battles, others might be a singing contest or even a card duel.

We're trying to figure out which will be not only easy, but will allow fill up all the spaces on the board while allowing people an option as to who they want to be.

Like, for me, I'm torn between...

Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII
Captain Jack Sparrow
Sokka from Avatar the Last Airbender
Shifty from Happy Tree Friends

I really want to be a funny character. So if you have suggestions, you should offer them up. XD

Maybe you should choose an extremely broad topic because no matter what you're going to get someone who just has no idea who they want to be within a general idea.

Do the Underworld Vampires vs. Werewolves... Not the Twilight one....

I would also like to watch what ever you guys do....

Some other ideas I thought of:
Ice Wizards vs Fire Wizards
pirates vs ninjas
plants vs zombies
knights vs samurais
fairies vs robots
robots vs rebels (better than terminator)
marvel vs dc
farmers vs city folk
angels vs demons
geeks vs jocks
sumo vs buff bods
gays vs lesbians (not the normal looking ones, but the extreme)
cops vs kids

I believe our fights are on YouTube. Just google "Tora-Con Chess." Toracon could be spelled like that, too.

I'm gonna have to say Sci-Fi Vs. Fantasy would be hardcore.
I'd participate if i was anywhere near you, lol.

I just watched last year's match, it was pretty entertaining despite the fact I couldn't hear what a lot of the people were saying. You guys did a great job.

As for themes, how about "Melee vs Magic" or "Stealth vs Style" ?

Awww thanks! We've improved with the volume A TON this year. Actually got mics (thank god). Still have a lot of work to be done, but it's getting better with each year. :)
