Don't Mess with Steam Punk Femme Fatales

 Femme Fatales come in all shapes and sizes and those of the Steam Punk Era have their own form of deadliness.

Armor, firearms and a killer instinct are the hallmarks of Cassandra Drk'hart. (Privateer Press)
And who needs a firearm when you have a killer's eye with the blade as does the Baroness Natasha Shearpoint. (Pulp Figures)

Another affectionate believer in the use of blades is Anastasia Di Bray. (Privateer Press)
Verein Zoetekijken, on the other hand, trusts her beloved old...
belaying pin to make a sound impression. (Privateer Press)
Captain Sam (not Samantha d'mn you) Bogsdaughter prefers her solid Colt .44 revolver to make sure her commands are followed to the letter. (Pulp Figures)
Della Morte' also believes in her trusty six-shooter. (Pulp Figures)
Being a proper English Lady, Mrs. Elizabet R. Gates would never use any pistol that wasn't a Webly .455. (GDW)

Being a prim and proper daughter of a Minister, 
Lady Eugene de Witton, keeps her pair of pocket pistols discreetly hidden in her handbag. (GDW)
While she prefers her two-handed sword, Verde Morty, can aways rely on her two ivory handled pistols to settle any distasteful disagreement. (Malifaux)
Sonia Criid also prefers a sword, but hers is a burning blade, using secret petroleum distillates of her own design, to cut through any "red-tape." (Malifaux) 
Whereas the "Sea Witch" relies on "good old fashion Arcane Magics" to power her flame sword. (Monolith)
Chains and sword are a fine combination according to Arlymn Lytdncer, especially if you need to disarm/disable rather than eliminate your opponent.
Adventuress Extraordinaire, Lady Augusta Elizabeth Shutfuzze, uses good fashion sense and a .445 round, to make her mark in the World (Foundry)
Another user of the powers of the Arcane, and a good bottle of "Vino" to power her way through the World is the fierce pit fighter Onna Mnn Wtcch. (GW)

The Widow Wisty Widshipp has spent her time removing "upstructions" with her "Victrola of Soul Rendering." (Monolith)
Marie Laveau, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. uses her powers for the good of her followers. (Monolith)

Baronne Menace Cachee aka "Monstrecalamar" has unfortunately delved a little too deeply into the weird "Majic's of the Arcane." (Monolith)
                                                  
Miss Ilene Addlaar knows the best way to take down an enemy is with massive firepower. And the smoke-flames & KABOOM scares the k..p out of everyone else! (Monolith)
Madelyn Corbeau, the Courtesan, uses more of her womanly powers, and a vast knowledge of poisons and love potions, to rule her niche of the World. (Privateer Press)

And finally...
Where one is dangerous a whole regiment, such as this squad of the Crown Princess Michelle's Hussars, is a force few would wish to face. (Hinderland Figures)

The Monolith pieces are plastic all the others are metal and have been painted by me this century.
