"Women Fighters In Reasonable Armor: An Idea Whose Time Has Come"

[tinpra]

If you subscribe to, or are a regular fan of, io9 then you've probably already seen this faboo post about artist renderings of kick butt women warriors wearing armor that *gasp* may actually save their lives! Not that you can't kick butt while wearing heels and metal underwear, but you're definitely more likely to twist an ankle and get gutted in the process.

I'm just sayin'.

Personally, I'd like to see this live-action. Not to say that Xena didn't take a few names in her day, but she also should have been sporting a lot booboos with that getup (except when Lucy Lawless was pregnant and they finally put her in full body armor). Doesn't anyone else wanna see a bunch of female samuri with the scary masks? C'mon...you know you wanna :D

Thanks for pointing me in this direction. There's a lot of images that are helpful for character creation.
