    My thoughts also, you can get a True Druidic Heart of Wood for 1495TP or a True Druidic heart of Wood + gender for 2495TP (as an example).

    Some would say money grab. I'd say a way to keep this game financed.

    Gender changing is a troupe within D&D.
    Ah yes, I remember doing that to someone with a cursed item way back in the AD&D days (before it had edition numbers)

    Would be silly to include in the name when you could just have a gender column...

    Two things.

    1) Silly it may be, but none of us have any clue how they use the data in the database.
    2) never underestimate the power of stupidity, and by side effect, never underestimate the eventual unintended abuse of systems.

    Agree. This is something I'd pay TPs for, or pay extra TPs to be able to do when TRing.

    If they choose to add gender changes, shouldn't they also add other transgender options?

    The ability for a male character to wear female armor skins, or use female voices for example...

    Let's not get too far from the original suggestion shall we?
