Re: Female characters you love

[(Anonymous)]

Evelyn Carnahan/O' Connell from 'The Mummy' movies. From that drunken speech in the first movie ("I am proud of what I am. I ... am a librarian!" *falls over*) in particular, I just madly adore her courage and humour and curiosity and occasionally suicidal fascination with things. Evie is the best. I wanted to be her so badly. Still do, really.

Charlene from 'The Librarian' movies and show. Just for being a snarky badass librarian bureaucrat who occasionally pulls out a sword to deal with shit. Again, kind of want to be her when I grow up, despite the fact that I'm currently nearly thirty and you'd think that would have already happened by now if it was going to at all.

Lydia Asher from 'Those Who Hunt the Night'. Curious turn-of-the-century doctor/scientist who holds her own in a world of vampires and spies and madmen and the odd triad gang. Tracks down vampire lairs all by her lonesome just by paperwork, helps plant massive chlorine bombs to destroy nests, remains very conscious of what vampire mental powers can do to consent, once ran through an enemy compound after having been kidnapped while thinking 'Damn those gangsters for stealing my glasses' to herself. I adore her.

Yes, I have a thing for librarians/scientists/bureaucrats, particularly those who regularly deal with vampires/monsters/weird shit a lot.

Speaking of, Dame Estelle Matsuko from Honor Harrington, for being a badass bureaucrat/diplomat. Also Eloise Pritchard from the same series, with added Lady of War for being the president of a wartime space nation, an ex-revolutionary, an ex-double agent, and a current all-round badass. A lot of the characters in those books, actually. I'm only so-so on the politics, but the characters are amazing.

Also a bunch more characters from a bunch more things, but apparently it's my bookish lady loves that are on my mind this evening.
