Not topic related, but the timing of the reply will seem disjointed due to my fumbling of the preview vs post button. That's my mistake, and despite the spirited debate (this or any other) I do care about clarity and communication with you Jester.
Ok. Again not something I necessarily agree with, but your phrasing is at least clearer.
Well, are we now in a territory where 4 or 5 examples is too few for a 'nobody'? This is the 'your' line, not -the- line situation all over again. At least, it looks awfully familiar to me.
Using your same reasoning, couldn't I also say any -one- can be offended, and (insert whatever number I arbitrarily choose) of examples is too few to be really counted, for realsies, I stand by my original statement that etc etc?
If that's your right, why would it -not- be mine as well?

I meant to remark sarcastically on the fact that the sorceress does not appear to be anything at all, except perhaps a literal rack, off which you can hang T'n'A. This was obviously the artist's choice - the comment referred to what he was trying to depict in this illustration, not about his motivations. The sentence could read "If the dude above is an epitomized Knight, what is this epitomizing, someone's mommy issues with a staff and a hat? It's clearly not an epitomized sorceress."

You can find someone interested in cosplaying just about anything, but I stand by the statement that is not generally a character women identify with.
