The Hollywood Star We Need

Brigitte Bardiche

Between having been a gamer since the days of Wizardy and Eamon (actually created and published adventure for that), having been involved in historical reenactment for almost as long, participating in certain weapons-based sports, and being “adjacent” to various Hollywood personalities who work in the Scifi-Fantasy genre, the “issues” surrounding women’s armor in game, film, and written works is something that I’m forced to endure on a fairly regular basis.

So, here she is – the Hollywood star we need: Brigitte Bardiche, in all her full-coverage, fairly historically accurate armor. And… with a bardiche, which is one of my favorite weapons along with its close, Scottish cousin, the lochaber axe.

NOTE: This is such a sensitive, “triggering,” and pervasive issue that I’m sure, if various pundits read this, they will find some way to take issue with her armor.
