The Army's current gen kevlar has is much more adjustable for this. Personally, I hate them. I like the ones a few years ago where I could rest the edge of it on my rifle and shoot perfectly. Now I have to worry about "muscle memory" and good posture.
I doubt this practice applies to LadyHawke however.

You don't have to move in a certain direction simply because someone grabs your hair. You can resist until the hair breaks and leaves you with aforementioned bald patch. Regardless, I would see a bun working much better than a long pony tail.
You will. Where you're head is suddenly jerked or pulled the rest of your body is likely to follow. You'd have to see it coming and brace yourself. If your enemy has you off guard and just yanks you this way, you're going torso is going to follow and so are your legs.
The bun would work but I'd be curious to see if it might interfere with the helmet somehow.

Well on that issue it's not so much about that but - granted this is in real life not videogames - soldiers tended to cut their hair (and facial hair) short so that if they lost their helmet, or didn't have one, the enemy couldn't simply grab hold of their hair because it would put them at a disadvantage.
A long ponytail swinging around can be a liability if someone grabs it and yanks hard.
Thats true, but a tight bun is acceptable to the military, right? Because it's very close to the scalp and can't be grabbed easily. Also, I'd rather someone with a sword grabbed my hair than swinging at me with said weapon. I might have a bald patch after, but atleast I'd be alive
I've noticed some women have trouble finding a kevlar that fits comfortably because of the bun.
Thought I'm not sure how big a problem that would be though in Ye Old Times when armor wasn't manufactured.

At least it hasn't diverted to breast pulling.

I would love to see a fanart contest. Even just seeing all the entries would be amazing. Although, we've already had plenty of awesome fanart in the original Lady Hawke thread.
But nuuuuu

You like brain buckets (K-pot) over the ACH?

She wont die of cold since she has her furry wolf by her side. Also,spending most of her life in a cold environment she developed some kind of natural resistance like the eskimos. She also looks very able. So much so that could easily own male Hawke in an armwrestle match.

Sorry if I like having two more inches of my face covered in combat. Also, mine fit perfectly before they took it away from me. I was a sad panda that day. ACU is also the ugliest pattern ever. EVER.

Yep, lots of half-naked eskimos hanging out in the arctic.

It has been done, and today's kevlar are not like their predecessors. However, this thread is about what we want for how "Femme" Hawke, and in ancient times, armor (as someone states) was unnecessary.
This is about "ancient" Greek-Spartans women. Let us please stay on topic.

The context being...hanging around naked at the Arctic parties? Wearing useless and ridiculous armor conventions?
If her breasts are tense enough you won't be able to do that. Bethany, on the other hand, looks all soft and flaccid.ErichHartmann wrote...

A person who spend his life living in cold could survive for longer naked than a person who lived his entire life on the beach.

I don't think anyone is arguing that she shouldn't have long hair, per se, so much as justifying why she has short hair.
