Femme Fatale

Female Heroes/Heroines[]

Seductress, also known as Heroic Femme Fatale, is a beautiful, seductive, yet ultimately heroic, woman who uses the benign power of her sexuality in order to ensnare either the hapless villain into danger or in more complex purpose, manipulate them so any kind of evil scheme that they have planned with horribly failed/backfired, resulting their defeat, or seduce any man for any reason.

No matter which side they are on, all Femme Fatale have good socializing skills aside sexuality. Just like charismatic individuals, Femme Fatale repeatedly winning allies, averting fights entirely with a few well placed words or even just more personal pursuits like being lucky with love.

NOTE: Check your women to see if they actually seduce a man, not just flirting. Flirting and seduction are not the same, and if you think she seduces someone please add when she does it in her article if you can remember. Seductresses and flirts are not the same.

Examples of seductresses: Brenda from Savage Streets, Rose Tyler, Rouge the Bat, Catwoman, and Ada Wong.

Many seductresses, stereotypically, tend to be Greek, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, Serbian, Slovenian, Croatian, Macedonian, and along those lines.

Female Villains[]

A beautiful, seductive, but ultimately villainous, woman who uses the malign power of her sexuality in order to ensnare the hapless hero into danger. This is the exact opposite of Ingenue. Examples of femme fatales: Darth Talon, Delilah, Lady Luck, Catwoman, and Mileena.

Another type of Femme Fatale is the Vamp. The Vamp is a type of villainess that uses her looks and/or charms to try to lure the character mostly to the dark side, or to do work for her. Vamps are more dangerous than the regular Femme Fatale. Also, the Vamp is more evil than the Femme Fatale, and focuses more on evil work, than the average Femme Fatale, while the Femme Fatale can also be on the good side, which is known as the "Heroic Seductress", the exact opposite of a Vamp.
