Kerrigan from the StarCraft series (1998РІР‚вЂњ2017) is examined as a possible counter-example, demonstrating that the monstrous-feminine can exist in a playable and potentially empowered form, though she is problematically empowered within a violent, militant framework. The Broodmother from Dragon Age: Origins (2009) and the Mother from Dragon Age: Origins-Awakening (2010) are considered as problematic examples of the abject monstrous-feminine which fall into a long tradition in horror media of framing the female body and the birthing process as something horrific and repulsive.

This article examines examples of the monstrous-feminine in the form of abject maternal monsters in a selection of commercially successful and critically acclaimed mainstream video gamesР’В using conceptual frameworks and textual analysis methods established in the work of Julia Kristeva and Barbara Creed.
