As much I'd like that, considering no contemporary painting of her survived (during the trial it was mentioned a Scottish soldier made a portrait of her, however it didn't survive) they can have almost free reign on her appearance.

Ifirc the trial records state her hair was cut short like a man; but it seems like all of the premodern depictions of her depict her with long hair anyway

after France's defeat at Agincourt, the school is disbanded and Montmorency is forced to flee. While on the run he meets a miraculous village girl named Jeanne.


Considering Jeanne was about three years old at the time of Agincourt it's ineed a miracle Laughing
Oh well, at least they didn't put her against the Black Prince, like Japan occasionally loves doing.
