Erica Brookfield aka Lanthea Cosplay is an artist and cosplayer from Halifax, NS. She has been cosplaying since 2012 after being inspired by fellow attendees at her first convention, Hal-Con 2011.

She is best known for her armored versions of popular characters such as Ariel (The Little Mermaid), Harley Quinn and most recently Poison Ivy. Erica makes all of her own costumes, props and armor, mainly using thermoplastics such as Worbla. She has taught classes at Halifax Costume Academy and has previously presented panels at Hal-Con. She is beyond excited to be back as a local hero at Hal-Con this year!
