%%* AmazonianBeauty: Arguably the tallest character in the comic, built like a Greek statue, and strong enough to subdue a pair of wild boars with her bare hands. And then carry them over her shoulders back to camp.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Amazonian Beauty should not be used as a descriptor for any muscular female character. This trope is for muscular female character being portrayed as attractive. Entries need to provide context from the work that makes it clear the character is muscular and portrayed as attractive (Fanservice Tropes, making them a Love Interest, tropes typical used to present a character as attractive).

The word "protagonist" shouldn't be in quotation marks. A protagonist is just the focus character of a story; the word has no connection to a character's morality.
