Dandelion from The Witcher series is probably one of the most beloved characters in the franchise. He is hilarious, whimsical, and Geralt's total opposite. His dynamic with the main character makes him all the more enjoyable. The annoyed and stoic brute and the flamboyant, playboy bard who just wants to have a good time make quite the combo.
Dandelion, also known as Jaskier in the show and Polish version of the game, is one of the few bright spots in the rather gritty world The Witcher takes place in, both literally and figuratively. Because of this, fans absolutely love him, in the book series, games, and the new Netflix show. Here is a list of ten amazing Dandelion cosplays from The Witcher 3 that we totally adore.
10 Just A Bard And His Loot
This cosplay was done by @vitaliy_joiner on Instagram and is a perfect representation of the bard. As seen in the books, show, and games, Dandelion is almost always with his loot, always composing new music and tales of his own and Geralt's adventures. In this photo, Dandelion also appears to be in a bar or tavern, as food is being thrown around him as he stays calm and peaceful, simply playing his loot.
9 Distracted Geralt
This image is actually based on the "Distracted Boyfriend" meme and is just utterly hilarious when Dandelion is Geralt's (the boyfriend) distraction. Many fans joke that Yennefer may be Geralt's main love interest and girlfriend, but Dandelion is definitely Geralt's boyfriend. This image was posted by the Yennefer cosplayer in the picture, the Dandelion is @magister_workshop who will appear later in this list again on his own.
8 Oh Valley Of Plenty
This cosplay has a large number of Dandelion cosplay pictures on their Instagram profile that are all amazing. The setting in this image looks like that of the actual setting in The Witcher 3 and just shows once again that Dandelion is the only spot of color in this rather gritty game.
Dandelion looks like he is mid ballad here, and as he looks off into the distance, it almost appears as though he is singing to an audience or fellow travelers.
7 Fancy A Drink?
This cosplayer makes sure that their colors totally pop in this image, as they appear to be standing against a brick wall. The setting totally fits that of the games and makes Dandelion appear like he's in a tavern or town with a large mug of ale. Dandelion definitely fancies himself some ale, and can often be found in the likes of a tavern to either come up with new stories or to tell his own.
6 The Colorful Bard
This cosplayer comments in their bio that they feel as if Dandelion's color scheme may be a bit too bright for them but can't help like it fits Dandelion and his personality perfectly. The pink/purple and blue color scheme that Dandelion often wears is nothing short of whimsical which totally fits this good-humored bard and speaks miles of his personality. Fans can understand exactly what the character will be like before even meeting him.
5 Teaching Ciri
Because of his friendship with Geralt, Dandelion is obviously pretty close to Ciri. Ciri is like Geralt's daughter, and because of this, everyone close to Geralt treats her as such. Yen sees her as her own daughter, Triss treats her like a younger sister, and Dandelion often treats her like his niece.
Beyond that, it is often stated that Dandelion and Ciri are great friends, so this cosplay image is just fantastic. This picture is posted by the Ciri in the picture but the Dandelion has been featured in a previous entry on this list.
4 Setting The Mood
This picture of Dandelion was taken at an actual castle to give the full feeling of the character and setting. The purple smoke in the background perfectly matches the bard as he strums away on his lute. The post was made by the cosplay group swscosplay and the Dandelion cosplayer is Johny. Because of the colors in this image, everything about Dandelion totally pops out. The blue tights, the lute, everything looks mystical and exciting.
3 Deep In Thought
This cosplay is done by @magister_workshop on Instagram and is absolutely fantastic. Because it's a closeup, fans can see the details in the costume wonderfully and how much thought went into each part. The cosplayer's jade rings totally stick out in the best way and accent the blue and purple of Dandelion's outfit wonderfully. The cosplayer looks deep in thought, perhaps coming up with a new poem or ballad to sing (or where the nearest brothel may be).
2 A Flower And The Poet
This Dandelion cosplayer is a bit more sentimental than the rest and tops into the character's more sensitive side. Dandelion is a romantic after all, this image shows the character looking at a flower, plucking the petals saying the classic "She loves me, she loves me not." The flower totally matches Dandelion and looks like it is meant to be part of him, which is just perfect. Viewers can tell that the cosplayer is sitting at a table, there is a candle in front of them and a mug to their side. Dandelion seems deep in thought as he drinks away his woes at a tavern.
1 The Real Hero Of The Witcher
Dandelion has all the pizzazz and is a beloved character throughout the series, as cosplayer @wolpixcosplay clearly points out. All the colors of this cosplay totally pop out against the dull browns of the background. The cosplay also poses exactly how fans could imagine Dandelion posing, twirling his perfect mustache. This cosplay highlights the eccentric jewelry that the character wears and just how much he sticks out from the crowd of The Witcher.
