Jim sterling mentioned this in one of his Jimquisitions once.
We have old grizzled heroes like Marcus Fenix or Solid Snake. But I can't think of a single old grizzled women hero in a game.
I don't know if Eileen the Crow from Bloodborne counts ?

(We never see her face tho)
(Well she's not the main protagonist of the game either...)
