I've emailed the artist to ask. I'll let you know when I get a response. For now, all we can do is use the public posts the artist has made to figure out that the character is a girl who uses they/them pronouns.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

You're actually pestering the artist over the pronouns of a drawing?

Dude....

If the artost is smart they'll ikely ignore it since that sorta question is a bear-trap.

Sending one email about a question I genuinely want the answer to does not constitute "pestering". However, repeatedly going against the creator of a character's wishes for how to refer to that character might be considered pestering.

Not everything has to be about one's political desires.

If we start getting overly generic things during sales, this would be why.

Lmao this whole thread. And that guy is STILL going at it?? This is what wokeness will do to a person, I guess. It's hilarious but maybe I should be a bit worried or something.

This has nothing to do with politics. I'm not trying to get any outcome other than me being more informed about the things I talk about.

I wish more people understood that you can email anyone and if your question is one they want to answer, they will. I've gotten more words out of Valve employees than they post publicly that way. Have an interesting question, you might get an interesting answer.

If it wasn't then no one would've gone past the OP about this.

Some communities want too much, which is how we end up with increasingly generic stuff from a neutral company.

This entire tangent started when I pointed out that information about a character's backstory would be known by the person who created that character and that guessing that information could give you the wrong answer and then five pages later people are still telling me I'm wrong about that.

You can go back and re-read my first post in this thread. The claim I made should not have been controversial but it was.

Yeah but some questions betray a level of curiosity and interest that any artist would find 'worrying'. It's like if someone wronte into marvel asking what colour underwear Captain Marvel was wearing in Avengers Endgame.

My personal headcannon is that she is a Salien in disguise. Wearing a human skinsuit. I mean think about it. SHe only shows up during the sales events.

Male or female Salien? Or maybe a transgender?

Asking "how should I refer to your character in conversation" has nothing to do with underwear or genitals. Stop trying to make this weird.

How would that even remotely be considered pestering? Are all posts about the delivery girl directed at the artist automatically?

This whole thread is pestering the artist, I'm sure he is fuming behind his MacBook right now.

The fact it comes down to that displays how such communities really try to dig into everything rather than just let things be as they naturally are.

If they wanted it to be that sort of thing, they'd likely give the flag colors or make it more obvious. Again, this displays a strong issue with communities trying to essentially infect and latch onto neutral communities, neutral sales, neutral companies. Not everything has to be about that community nor trends, just let it be a normal character for a normal sale and be done with it.

SHockingly. Not every transperson makes their status obvious.
A good many of them just look like regurlar dudes or ladies.and they themselves don't bring up the trans aspect unless it becomes relevant...like say with someone they're dating.

Otherwise they're likely going to answer the question of 'are you trans?" the same way they'd answer the question of "What colour is your underwear?"

Assume they are what they look to be and refer to them as such. . If you're wrong you'll be corrected. And chances are you won't be because that sort of thing is almost never relevant to any conversation about a person or a character.

Saliens reproduce via asexual fission.
The concept of sexes and gender roles is alien to them.
