Episode #031 – Writing Complex Female Characters

MuseCast XIV

Wrapping up our series on the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, we rile up the discourse as we discuss Minfilia, her story, and all of her associated fandom controversy. We explore why exactly the leader of the Scions became the fans’ least favorite character, what unfortunate tropes and biases surround female characters (even “strong” ones), what makes a character truly valuable to a story, and how this demonstrates how roleplayers might better write their own original female characters.
