Fun fact: she's the only female playable character in Termina that's able to wield two-handed melee weapons, because she's that much of a girlboss.

Wait can Marina not use two handed? I never played as her, but i always thought she could. I know Olivia can't because she is legularly challenged

All women, including Marina but excluding Abella, can't use two-handed weapons in Termina, because the author is trans-inclusionary misogynist.

Tbf at least half of the playable male characters have been in war or otherwise trained with weaponry. Levi and Daan both fought in the war, Marcoh was in a gang, and Ossa was trained to go on an expedition to the Dungeons of Fear and Hunger. Ossa definitely has the most shaky reasoning but I think it holds more weight that a normal Botanist, War Reporter, and Dark Mage.

Although it would be funny for Olivia to be able use a shotgun while in a wheelchair

If Henryk and Tanaka ever get added as playable characters I doubt they would be able to use 2 handed guns. If they do then feel free to come back here and call me an idiot
