Like its namesake, the Pandora’s Mighty Soldiers (PMS) clan strikes fear in the hearts of men. On Xbox Live, most players would force quit a round of HALO when they see a game handle with ‘PMS’ in front of it, just so humiliation would not befall them.

Rightfully so, because on the gaming battlefield they emerge supreme.

The PMS clan is a multi-platform gaming organization founded in 2002. What’s so unique about the PMS clan is that it is arguably made up of the best female gamers in the world.

The PMS clan has members that span across different gaming disciplines with various game specializations. For example, a member can also choose to major in the Rhythm Game Division specializing in Rock Band for the Xbox and PlayStation.

The PMS clan is alive and strong here in Southeast Asia. Members are scattered about the region, but PMS’ presence is most visible in PMS Asterisk..

PMS Asterisk is the Singapore chapter of the PMS clan. Its all-female members compete in Defence of the Ancients (DotA) tournaments all around the world, from Shanghai to Thailand to France.

Not just another run of the mill gamer, Tammy was from the prestigious Raffles Junior College, and holds national medals in sailing and gymnastics. Her good looks has also been a boost to her professional gaming career: "Recognition and sponsorship probably come a lot more easily to us than to male teams," she said.

Also lyrically and musically talented, Dawn works as a copywriter, and plays both the piano and cello. "Many times, the guy teams don't take us seriously, but it makes it all the more fun when we beat them," says Dawn.

Tammy, who is a sales executive at Razer, says: "The boys tend to be a lot more performance focused and competitive, and can train for more than six hours a day. On the other hand, we're not that hardcore - we're just a bunch of girls who like gaming."

The PMS Asterisk team roster currently consists of 5 main players and 2 trainees, and it is to date the first ever all-girl DotA team in the world.
