Can we have a lady knight thread for the sake of it?

knights!What makes a cool knightly order /tg/?
>>98867228And other than image dump, the goal is to...?
>>98868263I'm pretty sure this image inspired me to make a solo lewd game where you play as a female adventurer running on hentai logic
>>98868348kino
>>98868320NGL I always approached it more from the Olympic village/politician/older rich widow angleLess>Oh noes my 20 seconds of being cool evaporated and now I'm mind broken And more tossing a FAT stack of gold to a group of towering Dragonborn gigolos while still riding the adrenaline high and telling them you don't want to think for a few hours Straight up rape should IMHO come paired with a solid blackmail/duty plot. Less getting beaten and more knowing that there's no point not letting this creep have your way with you to save your realm
>>98868292Definitely not to actually talk about lady knights, that upsets people
>>98868402I don't have a lot of ladyknights but I did have that one. Its just women with swords now.
>>98867228
I find it odd that women knights aren't depicted as being cavalry focused especially since the horse helps mitigate the female build's innate lack of strength.
>>98871103>braided her horsie's manecute
>>98871103Because those were largely used to run over serfs gang pressed into the front lines.That's frowned upon nowadays.
Do Lady Knights take a vow to protect all innocent men?
>>98871404yes.... protect... that's what they vow.
The female social class equivalent to a Knight, is technically a Dame.>Why no Dame classAlso, this presents the hilarious opportunity of rolling a male dame, if you want to be a literal fairy-arse poofter.This is what True Representation would look like- t. Chud
>>98871592Furthermore, I can posit TWO potentially thematic gameplay effects.- Protection from Law- Protection from ChaosThese are non-magical effects, based entirely around social protocl.Obviously their key stat should be CHA.
>>98867228>>98867235>>98867236Dame. The female equivalent of a knight is a dame, you foolish knave. Know you not your men from your women?"Lady" is also acceptable.
>>98872004Both aren't necessarily the same, but ideally they overlapA "Dame" is a female at the top of the social hierarchy, of a noble bloodline who doesn't need to swing a sword because she holds authority over the men who doThink of someone elegant and intimidating, who hides cold calculation behind flawless etiquette The place of a "Lady Knight" is on the battlefield, clad in armor, in service of a strict chivalric order, honor or duty
>>98871425Not following you.
>>98868263I like the detail that it looks like one of her swords has a piece of behelit on it. I wonder if this incarnation of Casca would speed run the Skull Knight route.
>>98867759Sure.Repanse could really use a new mini.

>>98873625Ooh, missed this one >>98871425. Excellent.
>>98873625Your opinions are valued.
I'm thinking of better names than "Lady Knight" because knight is a Male Term and to use a male term for a female is just degrading to females because you're admitting that women can't fight unless they are men. Like, you're never going to say Lord Dame. War LadyFighting LadyMaiden-at-ArmsBattle MaidensShield MaidensArmor DamesFoot DamesSpear DamesDamsels OrdersDamsels BandsFighting SistersWatch SistersConsort Guard
>>98874513Lady Knight is fine if the vast majority of knights, soldiers, etc in your setting are still males.
>>98874542I disagree; people will wonder why you're using those terms for any female who happens to be a fighter when she's not a Lady in Rank. I notice that someone else brought up rankings earlier in the thread, but a Lady is still far above a knight in rank. Which is why Dames are equal to knights in rank. It's correct to say, War Lady. Because a Lady is a Lord. And no, both knights and Dames are pretty low in rank. Any low-rank person can become a knight/dame. Only Nobles can be Ladies or Lords.
let it go
>>98874513Wouldn't it do to just call them Knights, then. Like we say lady to specify in these sorts of threads, but nobody would claim that the actual title is Lady Knight. Status is Knight, styling is Dame or Sir. I do think Lady of War has a ring to it, but it feels like it should be a styling WAY above knighthood.
>>98874587Depends on the setting. Some far flung kingdom with low to no nobles might practice more upward mobility.Also people and their ancestors only became lords by taking/making that title with a sword.
>>98874653Very cool.
>>98874657But Dame is the same status of knight, but for women. So just call them Dame. Also, >Image of JoanJoan of Arc was never knighted. She was just a warrior woman with power.
>>98874683you're pretty autistic aren't you
>>98871425my dream...
>>98874733Yes, and you are using the term incorrectly. There's nothing wrong with calling them Dames, but calling them Knights is wrong.
Joan of Arc is the reason I love them. Growing up in France certainly helped. Not sure how known she is elsewhere
>>98874801If we're being brutally honest about history. Joan never fought. She was encouraging men to fight, but she herself never did because she's a girl, and even in armor, she would still get fucking destroyed by any normal-sized man. Also, fuck France; they made her black. Joan is now an American hero.
>>98871401Not really. Cavalry fought each other, often.>>98874801I knew her well but I was raised Catholic so that might have helped; I do think she's pretty well known here in America regardless, though.
>>98873625terrible taste
>>98872004I was in the Hooded Sphinx, real dive off Cooper's Lane. Not my usual crowd, but work had been slow for a couple months, and the Sphinx was the kind of place people looking for trouble tend to find themselves. Not that I was after trouble. I'd take a nice, clean job if one happened to fall in my lap, but beggars can't be choosers and I was probably only another week without a job from that begging being literal. Besides, the drinks were cheap. Just close your eyes and imagine it's supposed to taste like that. At least it smells better than the patrons. Anyway, there I was at a table in the corner in some joint filled with whatever dregs wash up on the docks of Waterdeep looking for a cheap drink and maybe a quick coin before shipping out again and in she walks. Place went quiet for about half a second second until everyone remembered to act natural while they sized her up.Tall. Pretty. Starry cloak, and too much jewellery to be walking around this part of town. Everyone in the room was trying to work out if she as easy a mark as she looked, or if she was running a con on them. A little magic can make anyone look glamourous enough to look like an easy mark and get your guard down. But there was something in her face that told me she was the real deal. A mix of shame and disgust and anger at herself for being in whatever situation lead her here. Either she was a suberb actress or she didn't know what she was doing.I knew she'd come looking for trouble, and the moment our eyes met, I knew we'd both found it.
>>98874817Yes she never fought and that was her main defense during her trial.>Also, fuck France; they made her black.???>Joan is now an American heroAlways pathetic to see Americans trying to hide the fact they have no history at all. Their whole military history is committing genocide on natives through disease, then dropping two nukes on civilians, then bombing random civilians settlements in the middle east. You guys also invented the whole actor replacement thing. Whatever show you're referring to has been made my americans and anglos.
>>98874841Last year they made a black chick Joan of Arc for a parade or something. But no fuck you, Frenchie. You let all those Africans in, and now your nation is burning down. We're taking your heroes and making them better AND we're going to give her a bath because we know you Frenchies don't like cleaning yourselves.
>>98874856>Last year they made a black chick Joan of Arc for a parade or something. What are you even talking about?>You let all those Africans inLike you can talk>and now your nation is burning downIt's not, even during the worst of the protests there was less violence than 24 hours in the US. There are protests every other week, but I guess it can feel weird for americans seeing people taking it on the streets.
>>98874801Gilles de Rais was framedThere, I said it
>>98867228I want to gob them all.
>>98871592>>98872004At my table there were two clashing groups of female knights.The good ones were Ladies, because everyone appreciates a Lady.The evil ones were Dames, because they were harsh and tyrannical.
>>98874765ntaIsn't "dame" just the female equivalent of "sir"? Shouldn't the noun "knight" be unisex, a description of one's standing in the social hierarchy, generally the lowest level of the nobility.
>>98875316Knight IS unisex
>>98873448
>>98875443Her unmounted version is also quite cool
>>98874801Have you read Mercenary Pierre?It's about a french mercenary during the Hundred Years War. And yes, Jeanne.I don't like how they treat her in this, but opinions may wary
>>98876897>mangashe gets raped doesnt she?
>>98874801Most Brits know who she is; just from a different angle.
>>98877262AlmostBy the main character
>>98874841>cherry picks stuff.I can do that too. Frances entire military history is one of blunders and surrender. I mean honestly you guys lost alot of battles to anglos. Hell there was that one time when you poofers had a bunch of Italians surrounded and STILL lost your entire country.
>>98868074
>>98878292France is the militarily most accomplished nation in history.>>98874841And you are a fucking idiot too.>they have no history at allThe US's history is much closer to its people.Fucking behave.
>>98878306
>>98878326
>>98874841FACT CHECK: False! The Fr•nch were quite grateful for America bailing them out of World War 1. America would go on to repeat this feat in the second World War, though no similar gratitude would be forthcoming, likely because Fr•nce capitulated willingly and collaborated with Germany for the remaining duration of the war (it was less scary than fighting, sacre bleu!)Thus, by the nation's own admission, America has a glorious and storied history to which the Fr•nch owe their own continued existence, or what little remains of it.>>98878292FACT CHECK: True!>>98878326This looks retarded.

>>98879592see: >>98873215
what about JRPG knights?
>>98879961Degenesis had such a great vibes... shame about, well, pretty much everything else.
>>98874841>dropping two nukes on civiliansThere are no civilians in a total war, and besides, the fucking japs deserved it. FDRs job was to defend American lives, not the lives of the fucks who started the war in the first place, and winning the war by risking the lives of 2 bomber crews instead of a fucking million man land invasion of Japan was objectively the right choice. America has never done anything wrong.
>>98874765>but calling them Knights is wrong.Do you also crash out whenever you see DnD or other fantasy using Paladins for anyone who isn't a member of Charlemagne's court?
>>98884765Yes.
>>98880403Well damn.
>mfw I will never marry a lady knightI suffer
>>98883905Arguably killed less gooks than a land invasion would have either.What the bleeding hearts are really objecting to, is the disparity of forces.They seem to think it would have been more "decent" to get a hundred times more people killed in a conventional ground war, and prolonged military occupation against an actively resisting enemy.If you want to win a fight cleanly, you must demonstrate that resistance is futile, and will merely result in more one-sided beatings.
>>98883905i agree that nuking japan was the lesser of two evils, but america has done an endless list of wrong things, not that it's worse than some other offenders but still
>>98874765What in the AdventureQuest goddamn is this art style?

Allegedly all the women who participated in the defense of Tortosa in 1149 were knighted. The Order of the Hatchet was created specifically for them, but apparently didn't take in new members and died out. Allegedly, of course. It's a neat story but it's not really supported by contemporary accounts. Still, there's a rabbit hole if you're into that sort of thing.

“Begone, foul dwimmerlaik, lord of carrion! Leave the dead in peace!"A cold voice answered: 'Come not between the Nazgûl and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in thy turn.

"Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may.""Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!"Then Merry heard of all sounds in that hour the strangest.

Frilly dress armor.
>>98891930They were never knighted. They picked up weapons to defend themselves and their homes from invaders in a time of need. Like what all women did when their cities where under siege. The difference this time was that these women went beyond their duty and played a small offence role AND more importantly their husbands died in the defense of the city. For this they were reward with Tax Exemptions and being able to keep their husbands stuff for themselves. This is the real reason why the "Order" didn't being in new members, it was a honorific title for a few women and no more. You brought this up last time and posted shitty fucking WIKI page with BIAS shit sources that got me to actually look it up. They were an ad hoc militia unit that did some good work and was honored for their actions.

>>98904310https://smockt.org/blogHere you go, this one pretty focus everything I read into one clean article. They dressed up as MEN because looking like women while fighting men makes you an even BIGGER target, and they didn't have armor. Looked like a lot of them died during the fighting too because only a few of them actually got the rewards. Actually looking into the "Order" defeats this threads purpose. Like how can you have a Lady Knight thread and bring up a bunch of girls who didn't even look like girls while they fought? If anything, these threads shouldn't be "Lady Knights" and more about Fighting Women!
>>98904769"Fighting women" is so broad that it might as well just be a character art thread.Nobody pretended that this topic needs to have any direct basis in history, there is no reason to act like this.

You start a program that has your Men-at-Arms teaching their wives how to fight so they could fight alongside you. During a crisis your wife throw on what little spare armor that's around the house, rallies the other wives, and then joins in on the defense of the walls.
