10 Progressive Characters Who Prove Video Games Aren't Bigoted
6. Jade - Beyond Good And Evil
Its often been rumoured that Jades creator Micel Ancel based the character on his wife, whilst that has neither been confirmed or denied it was always clear Ancel wanted to create a character that was a real person and not a typical sexy action hero. From the moment Beyond Good And Evil introduces you to Jade she is likeable, sassy and practical as well as being a highly skilled martial artist and journalist who isnt afraid to get her hands dirty. Jade epitomises the adaptable, smart and down to earth heroes that feel more like an ordinary person gamers can relate to, than a super soldier or bikini wearing ninja. She is a well-rounded character who proves herself time and time again in the face of conflict and all whilst wearing suitable clothing.
