Lady of Adventure | comment |
She is a high-class lady (though usually not a member of royalty), self-sufficient, but not willing to get tied down in marriage (though she may find love in her travels, she will always choose adventure over love — not even defrosting will help). Sometimes, her Big Fancy House will contain mementos of past adventures. At home, she may be a Proper Lady but as a rule, crosses over into Spirited Young Lady; quite frankly, her activities would frighten her more domestic counterparts. For you see, she doesn't just find excitement — she specifically seeks it out. She thinks nothing of beating up pirates off the coast of the Trucial States or outwitting remnant tribes of Mayincatec humanitarians. Most often, she will have no powers of her own to speak of (though she may have some small degree of physical prowess) but will surround herself with a band of friends that will help her on her travails. She will almost certainly live to become a Cool Old Lady. Usually filled to the brim with British Stuffiness and almost always wears Gorgeous Period Dress (while still fitting for the high seas and hot sun). Often found in The Edwardian Era. Compare and contrast Lady of Black Magic and Lady of War. The Distaff Counterpart and likely wife of the Gentleman Adventurer. Often wears a ladylike Adventurer Outfit. |

Emma Bishop of Ruse is described as "A fetching beauty whose spirit craves adventure." Her day job is as the assistant to a danger-prone Insufferable Genius Victorian detective (sound familiar?), compensating for his lack of social and linguistics skills. Not mentioned: mysterious time-stopping powers, which she's not supposed to reveal under any circumstances... | |

The Dark Gathering character Eiko is a modern example. Although she's a brilliant hacker/day trader, those occupations are largely to fund her real passion: studying murderous ghosts. Apparently the adrenaline rush of almost dying gets her hot. | |

Leliana in Dragon Age: Origins first appears to be a kind of nun and later a pious thief who found refuge in a monastery. However, she really is a professional spy and assassin who worked for the high society of her home country. She occasionally complains that even though traveling on the road and fighting the undead horde is fun, she really misses the fine clothes and art of her country and the company of other more sophisticated people. | |

Despite it being the 1930s in Rocket Age lady adventurers are not uncommon. Exposure to alien cultures and a massive societal shift can cause that. The US Rocket Rangers even allows women into their ranks, though they are the only branch of the armed forces to do so. | |

Dejah Thoris in Warlord of Mars is also like this, especially in her prequel series where she takes all kinds of crazy adventures that rival those of her husband John Carter like visiting other worlds, fighting vampires, finding lost civilizations and fending off alien invasions.

After the events of Final Fantasy X, Lady note an honorary title given to Yuna for her service to the people of Spira Yuna donned a skirt and twin pistols to hunt artifacts with a Ragtag Bunch of Misfits. Unlike most examples of the trope, Yuna had a rather repressed childhood, so she's more making up for lost time than pursuing a lifelong career. | |

Doctor Who: Romana (both of her), an actual Time Lady who travelled with the Fourth Doctor. Lady Christina de Souza in "Planet of the Dead" combines this with Classy Cat-Burglar, as she steals for the risk rather than the reward. The Doctor's parting gift to her is a flying double-decker bus so that probably won't be a problem anymore. River Song can be this or the Classy Cat-Burglar, depending at which point on her personal timeline the Doctor catches her. Sarah-Jane Smith to a small extent in The Sarah Jane Adventures. She's not blue-blooded, but she is a grown-up former companion with an alien supercomputer in her attic, who now mentors several young adventurers. |

Lady Johanna Constantine of Hellblazer and The Sandman (1989). She was an 18th and 19th century aristocrat and adventurer, and an ancestor of John Constantine. She was the daughter of Lord and Lady Constantine, orphaned at a young age when her parents were hanged for treason. Stripped of her title, she was forced to live in poverty. Her luck turned in 1785 when King George III asked her to retrieve Pandora's Box. If she succeeded, her title would be reinstated, and she would be given an estate. | |

A senior witch in Kiki's Delivery Service flies past Kiki to greet her while Kiki flies towards a new city. You can tell by the senior witch's prim and proper voice as well as expensive jewelry that she comes from a luxurious life style. She also talks about returning home from various adventures regarding fortune telling. | |

Kit Bennett, PhD., alias Kathy Watson in Children of Time: a Badass Bookworm from a respectable family, born in Victorian London. By chance (we think), she's also a Time Lady. She is a physicist, she is a century old by World War II, and she's been all over Time and Space with the Doctor. (Yes, she's a River Song Expy.) | |

Nalia De'Arnise in Baldur's Gate II is actually a noble, but has decided to actually do something instead of just sitting around at her families castle. Though she's not exactly very good at that before she joins the players group. | |

The writers tend to forget this, but Captain Britain and his sister Psylocke are members of a fabulously wealthy family. While Captain Britain sometimes resents his calling, Psylocke fits this to a 'T', even after her Stripperiffic ninja makeover. | |

Space 1889 The main book makes this a career for female player characters. Since this is in Victorian times she is theoretically the loyal companion or servant of a male adventurer. This is just social camouflage, though. | |

Evadne Stephens from The Extraordinaires is a version of this in her late teens. She is from an extremely wealthy family, but she has run away from home because of the restrictions placed upon her ambitions. She is highly intelligent, hugely inventive and she is also a fine juggler with an arresting stage presence. | |
