[QUOTE="barsoomcore, post: 425292, member: 812"] Virtually all of my favourite NPCs are female. [b]Collette de Maynard[/b] Collette's an accountant, and she terrifies my party. They think of her as devious, ruthless, cold-hearted and slyer than the slyest weasel that ever won "The Slyest Weasel in the World" award. In fact, she's just smart, hard-working and knows when to cut her losses. She doesn't have any combat ability, she's got like three hit points, no magic items -- she's literally just an accountant. But she keeps turning circles around the party and is forever getting them into scrapes then running away while they dig themselves out. At the other end of the spectrum we have: [b]Madame Yuek Man Chong, the Demon Goddess[/b] Madame Yuek is a vampire goddess who, when the party met her, was one of the most powerful beings in the world. She was literally a deity, with 40 levels of various classes, any spell she wanted pretty much at her fingertips, with magical whatsits out the ying-yang and cranky to boot. Then she fell in love with a party member and tried to become a good guy. Which isn't so easy when you've been a pretty determined bad guy for the past two hundred years and are just cranky by nature. Now she's lost her goddesshood, she's no longer a vampire, and she's lost all her 40+ class levels. She's a 1st-level aristocrat with LOTS of VERY POWERFUL enemies. And most of the party hate her guts. On account of she's still incredibly cranky. I run all sorts of female NPCs. There's Natacha the ship's captain who's forever getting herself involved with the wrong guys, Zuleika the farmwife, widowed during a civil war, who got herself made a gladiator and plans to lead a revolution, Sandradeep the restauranteur whose aunt has a connection to the spirit realm, Arina the gloomy spy whose sister was killed in a duel with the man she loved, Isabella the sneaky gang leader who first brought the party together, Trk'tksktyk the Spider Woman who thought Isaac was kind of cute, and of course Kimiko Torokan, High Blood Sister of the Blood Council, who was a staunch ally of the party's until she tried to kill them all and got blown to rubble for her efforts. Uh, a favourite? Couldn't choose. I love my girls. (note: I get to call them "girls" cause they all live in my head.) [/QUOTE]
