    The greatest female warriors include the historical figures Boudica and Zenobia. They are only matched by some of the ladies driving US fighters and attack aircraft.

    Kahina? I wouldn't have known about her if you had not asked me that question. Thank you. You're pretty smart.

    PS. I was introduced to the existence of Zenobia by Edward Gibbon in his famous tome.

    More sorceress than warrior, but here's Liriel Baenre:

    And Arilyn Moonblade:

    Both created by author Elaine Cunningham.

    A brave warrior princess, who single handedly held the stronghold of Munkacs/Munkachevo city (Palanok Castle) against the flood of Habsburg agression for 3 years ( 1685-1688 ). 8)

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilona_Zrínyi

    She is celebrated in the countries of Croatia, Hungary, Transylvania, Ruthenia, and Slovakia.

    I think that every ethnic group has a few brave and celebrated female warriors, I guess in the 1:10 female:male number ratio.

    Liriel Baenre was drawn by Brom, who got the character PERFECT--upon seeing the image I posted, Elaine Cunningham actually had to suppress a shock of recognition!

    I have no idea who did the picture of Arilyn Moonblade.

    I do not understand the appeal of these things. What do you find fascinating about them? Not suggesting there is anything wrong with it... I just don't get it.
