A list of characters at the bottom
As a person who doesn't give a f*** about male characters and is exclusively interested in gaming girlies you can suspect I have a vested interest in video game diversity as in making a wide range of unique and interesting colorful characters with a heavy leaning to femininity and all ways that can be expressed obviously
I mean it's hard enough finding any interesting feminine characters nowadays with everyone's insistence on stripping down every woman's personality to generic action girl well still maintaining the exact same body type and pretty but modest features with nary even a variation of bust size anymore
with black women in gaming it's a whole another Beast entirely I mean they were pretty rare to begin with but even with the push for diversity in the Modern Age they're still more often than not placed into a box most common depiction I've seen in recent years as a Butch warrior/soldier archetype with short or shaved hair a tough demeanor but is doing the right thing usually equipped with a gun and a fashion sense and physique that lean towards the more masculine
And I have yet to stumble across a dainty dark skinned princess adorned in her Frills and bows fluttering about peaceful and innocent or a motherly healer with a Deep complexion who dotes on her companions as if they were her own children
I get it the world hates femininity and thinks it needs to be eradicated for progress but what most people seem to forget is it's the being forced into a box that is toxic not femininity itself and like it or not what most game creators are doing when they think to make black woman and almost always go for the self assured Soldier is contributing to the masculation of black women
So I made this collage/ list of uniquely feminine or Fantastical or cartoonish dark skin female characters in gaming mostly black but some racially ambiguous
Now unfortunately a majority of their femininity is shown almost exclusively from being sexualized and there are quite a few stereotypes on this list
But I didn't make these characters and it's my fault that the closest thing we have to a black equivalent of Princess Peach is the green princess from Castle Crashers mmm okay so you know maybe instead of getting mad at the past start advocating for more beautiful dark skin girls who are powerful dainty and feminine instead of just getting the same generic Butch black Army woman game after game

Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom) [ESTJ]- One Piece
Updated on 22/06/19
Typed by: Pensive Fine
Functional Order: Te-Si-Ne-Fi
Big Mom works towards what she considers a peaceful, harmonious utopia that promotes equality of races which may initially seem Fe-ish. But the methods she utilises are all Te. Big Mom establishes and enforces the rules of Totto Land, making citizens donate one month of their lifespan every six months as a fee for Big Mom’s protection. She thinks she knows best and forces her standards upon people, steamrolling over them if they do not comply (“If you obey me, everyone will live in happiness, if you disobey, it means you are selfish bad person, so I must kill you!”). She displayed this even as a kid, taking it upon herself to punish the bear for fighting with the wolf and fix the appearance of her fellow orphans by tearing off their racial features. She approaches situations with a business like approach, believing that a pirate should accept no compromises or delays in getting what they want. It is through this approach that she establishes protection for islands in return for candy, enacting harsh punishments if the terms are not met. If any of her allies were to leave her no matter what the reason, Big Mom forces them to give up something precious to them as a form of compensation. Big Mom generally does not tolerate failure and does not hesitate to punish those who do not reach her standard (demoting Snack). She hatches an elaborate yet efficient plan to get rid of her opposition- luring the Vinsmokes into a political alliance, then killing them and taking their military weapons. She sees her husbands as tools for procreation and once their use is served, she proceeds to discard them-ignoring their feelings and not even letting them see the children. SBS Volume 90 reveals she even abducted her 43 husbands to be used for this purpose. She also views her children as tools for her personal gain and generally does not take their feelings into account. She mainly values Pudding for her acting skills and acknowledging the importance of her third eye to read the Poneglypths yet personally found it disgusting and most likely would have treated her worse if it wasn’t for its usage. This made me consider inferior Ti being unable to view the inconsistencies within their logic but that could just be how controlling her Te is. She views Lola as a failure for running out of her marriage to Loki to establish more military might for Big Mom. Big Mom does not put any work to raising morals or values to her children aside from promoting loyalty to herself. One of the aspects that lead to her downfall is her neglect for the emotions of her daughters, not considering that her abusive treatment towards Chiffon would lead her to feelings of resentment and allow her to support Bege in betraying her. Big Mom prefers to keep her personal feelings private to herself, refusing to open up about Mother Camel nor her experiences with the Giants. She is prone to childish fits whenever her emotions stir up (inferior Fi).
Whilst she does have a grand vision for the future, it centres around recreating the past of Mother Camel’s dream of having the races united, latching on to her memory for over 60 years (Si). She recreates her tea parties in a manner reminiscent of the joy of enjoying semla with her friends when younger and continues to hold them to relieve those positive memories. This extends to her wanting to sit happily with all the races by using Caesar Clown’s gigantification research so that they can dine with her at eye level. Additionally she seems to recognise people by lineage, recognising Luffy based upon who he descended from and viewing Sanji as the ‘Son of Vinsmoke’, hinting at a Si connection towards emphasising the importance of one’s family roots (their past). She recounts the humiliation of Roger taking a copy of her Ponegylph and plans very meticulously to avoid such an event from happening again. Her Ne shows itself in the sheer wackiness and fantasical nature of Totto Land as well as her excitement over collecting different creatures. She becomes excited over the possibility of what could be inside the Tametabako Box. With lower Ne she tends to accept events at face value and do not question her perceptions that much, not being able to intuit that she was the one who ate Mother Camel, that Caesar was using the money given to him for ulterior purposes nor did much speculating on the suspicious events of who destroyed the buildings in Sweet City.
Enneagram: 8w7
Tritype: 8w7 6w7 2w3 [The Rescuer]
Big Mom refuses to let others take control of her. She is confrontational over everything, even with things that don’t necessary threaten her security directly. She eagerly accepts a challenge, choosing to spare Fishman Island and redirect her attention towards Luffy. She dislikes it when anyone else is in charge-demanding Katakuri to explain himself when he interferes. She is quick to react in aggression in attempt to regain control of the situation.
Her 6 fix is counter-phobic, becoming overly controlling of her crew members and fostering her family so that their loyalty lies in her and her only. This is done to feel a sense of complete security- having had past experiences of abandonment. Similarly such measures are also applied whenever people leave her crew, her attempts to make them stay involve setting up a roulette game in which there are consequences-almost as if such a threat would discourage them from leaving.
Finally her 2-fix makes her believe that she genuinely is doing a good thing and that her actions are helping other people. One Piece chapter 846 revealed that she wanted to replay the villagers in Wano by sharing Oshiruko with them and got angry at Luffy for eating it all up, demanding why he did so. Whilst Big Mom did get amnesia, this component is still intrinsically part of her personality. It just manifested itself in a unhealthy manner. She expects love from her family simply because she raised them, wanting them to be grateful to her for their existence. She considers herself a ‘kind queen’ of her country, accusing those who disobey her demands as being ‘selfish’, being especially angry whenever people do not show up to her Tea Parties.
Note: Initially I had her heart fix as a 3 given her immense pride in her own self-image as a Yonko. However I could not simply ignore those 2-ish moments she had. I may change my mind in the future but this is what I’m going with for now.
