We've come across a video from Feminist Frequency that takes a close look the character of The Scythian from the gameÂ Sword and Sorcery. The character is aÂ strong protagonist without much back story on a noble questâ€”a character not unlike many of the more popular protagonist from fantasy adventure games. They're strong and willful but are sort of ambiguous enough to project your own personality onto, as a game player.Â

But the Scythian is a female character, and one of the first of her kind.

Here's the video. After watching this, you will definitely want to play this game...and you will want to recommend it to all of your female gamer friends.

Not only does Sword and Sorcery make use of a strong female character, and not one ridden with weak female stereotypes, but even setting the Scythian aside, it sounds whimsical and delightful to play.Â

You go get 'em, Scythian!
