welcome to saluki con!

Cosplay Rules

Cosplay is not consent

Welcome to the second annual Saluki Con and the SIU Carbondale Campus! We’d like to take the opportunity to welcome back returning attendees and greet first-time ticket holders. You’ll find that there are a lot of passionate people who have worked hard to put on this con and we hope that you find lots of activities, panels, vendors and guests that appeal to your inner geek!

Costume REGULATIONS• Saluki Con is a family friendly event. Please use common sense, be considerate of other attendees and be aware of your surroundings.

• Cover your body parts. “No costume” is not a costume. “Paint” and/or “pasties” are not a costume, either. No intentional or unintentional “wardrobe malfunctions” allowed. Please make sure your costume is sturdily constructed; this includes proper undergarments. If your costume is deemed to be too revealing or offensive, you will be asked to cover up or change.

• All military, law enforcement, and other emergency service costumes should be easily distinguishable from official uniforms.

• Roller blades, roller skates, and skate boards will not be allowed in the Student Center.

• Please, no signs offering services or making requests to be hugged or touched. We want everyone to feel comfortable.

• Service Animals are allowed, assuming they are wearing the proper identification and you pick up after them. Pets are NOT allowed inside the Student Center.

Saluki Con is a family friendly event. We want to emphasize that Cosplay is not consent, so please be respectful to persons in costume and DO NOT TOUCH!

Please read through our costume and weapons regulations below.

WEAPON REGULATIONSNo functional weapons are allowed at the Student Center.

Some simulated or costume weapons are allowed as a part of your costume, subject to prior approval by convention staff and compliance with the following: • No costume weapons resembling a firearm will be allowed. This includes Blasters, Nerf guns or any items that fit a rifle or pistol profile.

• All costume weapons must be inspected at the entrance.

• Functional (real) arrows must have their tips removed and be bundled and zip tied to a quiver. • Any Cosplay item that has a metal or plastic blade are prohibited. Wooden swords and lightsabers are allowed.

• If you do not want to have your costume weapons inspected, or if you are not willing to comply with these policies, please do not bring your costume weapons to the Saluki Con. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation to make the Saluki Con a safe and fun environment for everyone.

molds and vacuum-forming, or assembling costumes from found objects.

brad mooreBrad Moore is a dedicated surrealist painter, who creates artwork for underground, heavy metal, and alternative record companies. Perhaps his most brilliant feat, however, was, on the day of his birth, to be delivered by none other than Dr. Chas. Cavaness, the man who brutally murdered his two sons, and the book; “Murder in Little Egypt” tells the tale. That book leaves out all the details featuring Brad Moore, however, and his years as a horror/gore comic book

artist, his trials and tribulations with designs and art for film, and his now current employment as an illustrator for the heavy metal/psychedelic recording industry. When asked what he considers his greatest achievement, Moore often cites the exhibit he did, in 2006, with none other than H.R.Giger, the Swiss Surrealist who created the Xenomorph horrors for the ALIEN film series. That Exhibit was held in Switzerland, at Giger’s own castle, and is now a matter of record.
