So I believe we have used 8 questions and we have:

1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8. Real human female human born before 1400.
The only person you're truly competing against, Wesley, is yourself.

This is an accurate summary.

Dead XOR famous for her role in politics, the military, and/or religion?

Yes. Exactly one of those.

No, I don't think so.

Can you name some female writers, visual artists, or composers, born before 1400, who were also involved in politics, the military, or religion??

With no searches, I can think of Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, and Herrad of Landsberg. I’d highly recommend checking out some medieval European writing!

I don’t think these are particularly helpful. From my XOR question, we know this person is either dead, or famous for politics, the military, or religion, not both. Since she was born before 1400, I am willing to bet that this woman is dead, and thus is not famous for politics, military or religion.

Are you reading the thread?

We know she was born before 1400, this has been confirmed by the QM.

I didn't know you could highlight things.. nice. I would like to know just how ancient this character is, so maybe a simple question of birth date would be better

There seems to have been some confusion over what XOR means. To be clear, this person is dead, and therefore not famous for politics, religion, or military. I will be nice and not count Jamie or Dip&War's questions, since the answer is clearly no to both.

Was this woman a citizen of Rome, or the wife, daughter, sister or mother of a citizen or Rome? For the purposes of this question "Rome" includes the Byzantine Empire, but not the Holy Roman Empire, Russian Empire, or any other entity that claimed to be the continuation of the Roman Empire. (and yes, women were considered citizens of Rome, even though they could not vote).
