Designing Woman
Making of a Female Game Star: Bikini Vs. Baggy Pants


FOR Nour Polloni, the lead producer of a video game that will feature a tomboyish teenage girl named Kya, it was out of the question.

''They wanted to put her in a string bikini,'' she said of the all-male, multinational creative team that is helping her bring virtual life to the game, Kya: Dark Lineage, due in November from Atari. As one of the few women working in video game design and production, said Ms. Polloni, a Kuwaiti, she had to exert her authority.

''I said, that is a bit too much,'' she recalled in a telephone interview from Eden Studio in Lyon, France, where she is based. ''We want to show her personality. She's not a sex bomb. She's tough, but not aggressive.''

While Ms. Polloni, 28, acknowledges that sex may sell, she contends that if video games are ever to appeal to both sexes, female characters need to offer far more than digital skin, pinup polygons and jiggle algorithms.

In the game, still in production, Kya appears as a slender 17-year-old dressed in baggy pants and a loose-fitting blouse that exposes her navel.

''Most female lead characters in games are portrayed to be what men would like to have in women,'' Ms. Polloni said. ''The thing about Kya, what we wanted to do was not to have a fantasy girl. We wanted her to be charming, a bit sexy, but not overwhelmingly sexy.''

For female players with no option but to play the part of a vixen, she said, the question is, ''Would I identify?''

With Kya: Dark Lineage, an action-adventure game for Sony's Playstation 2, the hope is that women will want to play as much as men will, Ms. Polloni said.

''It is a story-driven universe that is very feminized, very sensitive,'' she said of the game, which in early production stills seems to be somewhere between a computer-generated fantasy and a Saturday morning cartoon. ''It would fit the game's sensitivity to have the lead be female.''
