I know "waifish young girl with a giant two-handed broadsword" is a reasonably popular #DnD type of character to play, I just think it should be played with less of an eye on "ha ha tiny girl big sword" and with more of an emphasis on the EXTREME ULTRAVIOLENCE that girls in the 7-8-9 age bracket are capable of.
I'm just saying, when an enemy disenchants the Gauntlets of Giant Strength that she uses to heft that forty-pound sword, she should start biting people.
