[SPOILERS] Possible Non binary NPC

Community General Discussion
1

So apparently a new member of the Red Dragonflight has been revealed who’s very interesting Majordomo Selistra who not only has a Vulpera visage form but also does not follow known Red Dragonflight naming conventions and in their quest text they are exclusively referred to with “they” meaning it’s possible they’re non binary

Also figured I’d mention they also happen to be Alexstrazsa’s Representative and second in authority only to Alexstrazsa

Link for those who want to see for themselves

Edit: figured I’d add a trigger warning that unfortunately there is bigotry in the replies at least at the time of this edit

Sounds like you are trying to read something into this to keep the gender discussion going. Even Wowhead refers to this NPC as a she.

That dialogue is super cringe…
Hopefully they change it

(Because they sound like unrealistic lovestruck preteens. Real people would never talk like that)

Can a person only be a single thing? I have not found that to be true.

In fact, I have found it far more likely for one to be many things simultaneously.

Yeah, not exactly very subtle of Blizzard but we will see.

I hope they do, and it makes you very upset.

Are you getting befuddled by the concept of using they/them in the singular form? Because that’s not new to the English language.

I think similar phrasing is used for Varden Dawngrasp in Hearthstone.

I think “it” would be dehumanizing. They still infers that they are a human being. We shouldn’t be calling anyone an “it”.

The most disturbing part of this is they chose to live as a vulpera. Chose.

I was gonna mention that as well!
Still really nice to see 'em add that! ^^

“Oh no, a company is being inclusive or at least has the perception of having an aspect of inclusivity to them - better use a phrase that has been misused so damn much it means nothing except for those who know the term, and how being woke is one of the best possible things, since the opposite of it is being ignorant to one’s surroundings because someone else told 'em to be so!”
Want to try that again?
