She eventually ends up saving the world with Daemon by her side, by negotiating with the Luxen's enemies and having them kill the invading Luxen, and chase the survivors off.





2. Celia, Taran, Shayna, and Emme Wird

(Weird Girls Series)



Four women, living with powers bestowed on them from a backfired curse, each woman is kick ass in her own right. Celia, being able to turn into a Tigress, is incredibly strong and a fierce fighter, willing to do anything to protect her sisters, and Aric, her mate, and her unborn child. Taran is a force to be reckoned with, with the power to be able to wield fire and light, and her visions of bad things to come, she will also do anything to save her sisters, Gemini, her mate, and the people she loves. Shayna doesn't hesitate to use her ability to manipulate objects into a metal she has on her, making her useful for making an array of weapons, that she can use easily due to her being able to master any moves she see's on tv or in movies. She is always ready with her trusty toothpicks to protect her sisters, and her mate Koda. Emme is a gentle soul, but with her ability to heal those around her, and her telekinesis, she is able to throw down in a fight when she has to.



1. Katniss Everdeen

(Hunger Games Trilogy)



She might not have wanted to be the leader of the rebellion that ends up changing the country, but she ends up being the leader the rebellions need to defeat President Snow. She never hesitates to sacrifice herself to save someone she loves, and for that, she is an admirable character, and pretty kick ass.
