Many of them are just hair-brained commoners, expressionless characters, prostitutes, Xena clones, cheap plot accessories and mindless love interests, and so on. Which are understandable - what guy can play an effective girl, anyway?My two, both from D&D (3e; #1 from homebrew, #2 from "alternate" FR):(1) Rianneth Frostleaf, CG wild elf fighter/barbarian/Holy Avenger. She is an elven princess from the forests of Canopy (creative name, huh?). The empire is a large, matriarchal elven society, with a standing five million strong all-female elven army that consistantly wages war on its opponents to keep the empire alive.She is highly impulsive and feral, ready to protect her people at any cost. Because of this, many fear that her berserker strength and endurance (more the latter) would get the best of her, and would slaughter all whom she would hold dear.She wields a two-bladed sword, and her main mission is to prove and take out the High Priestess that is hijacking Canopy's religion into slaughtering all of the nonelf races around the continent (kinda how Al-Qaeda hijacked the Islamic religion to get Muslims to destroy the West for a ticket to heaven). Boy does she change when she finds that Canopy's history was a lie, a lie enforced by the elder elves of her people, who fear the slaughters of their brothers and sisters of long past.And for the record, Rianneth is married to a wild elf sorcerer and has four kids, all of whom she obsessively protects.(2) Emvashti, also a fighter/barbarian, and a half-dragon/half-wild elf. Nothing much, though the party I DM'ed sure was surprised when I put her in the game. Boy, did she harass the thief when he tried to start a barfight. When he did, and tried to chuck a rock at some dwarf, he rolled a natural 1... and even when hiding and running, she outran him and kicked the tar out of him in the end. He was stuck in bed for two whole days.Emvashti loves orc stew. It tastes like chicken.</blockquote>
