The female counterpart of casanovas, these heroines use their beauty to seduce or manipulate others, usually as a tool to combat villainy and achieve their goals. Their good-looks, including their kindness and nobility, may occasionally win the heart of their love interest, even if their skill is misinterpreted as flirting. It may be possible this was a corrupting factor of their use, prior to being fully reformed.

Their evil counterparts are femme fatales and black widows.
