Female character meme!

I was tagged by cinefantastiquemitho and princesssarisa.

RULES: name 10 favorite female characters from 10 different fandoms and then tag 10 people.

1. I was just thinking about her, so Mary Crawford for Austen fandom

"No cold prudence for me. I am not born to sit still and do nothing. If I lose the game, it will not be from not striving for it."

2. Aravis of Calormen for Narnia fandom

She was proud and could be hard enough but she was true as steel.

3. Tar-Ancalimë for Tolkien fandom

But she did not refuse the Heirship, and determined that when her day came she would be a powerful Ruling Queen; and when so, to live where and how she pleased.

4. Annabella from ’Tis Pity She’s a Whore (which doesn’t have a fandom per se but shhhh she’s great)

VASQUES: Good sir, be reconciled; alas, good gentlewoman.

ANNABELLA: Pish, do not beg for me.

5. Avatar Korra for Avatar fandom

"You have always been strong, unyielding, fearless."

6. Leia Organa for SW fandom

"Somebody has to save our skins!"

7. Lucrezia Borgia for Borgias fandom

"I will have blood for this."

8. Lessa for Pern fandom

"Time, time, time. It’s always the wrong time. When is now the time?"

9. Moiraine Damodred for Wheel of Time fandom

"Before I let the Dark One have you, I will destroy you myself."

10. Sandrilene fa Toren for Tamora Pierce fandom

"If I tell you my friend is a lady, then you had best start lapping."

SANDRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY MY LOVE <333

She's just the best. Lines from The Magic in the Weaving are still in my head well over ten years on - especially the moment Briar says he'd have sworn she wasn't scared of anything, and she says, "well, now you know. I'm afraid of the dark." Like she's fearless even about letting the impression of fearlessness go.
