Heroines Ep83

Who wants her to beat your ass, tie you up and make you tell the truth?.. THIS GUY!

In a hobby dominated by male archetypes (or clichés), sometimes what a campaign needs is a woman’s touch. The days of the woman being merely a piece of treasure or a plaything at a local watering hole are over. Sometimes it’s fun to let a woman take the lead.

 

We talk about some of the strong women in history and pop-culture and how they have helped mold the gamer culture.
