This is a general note concerning the
GMs view on the issue of "Gender Bending" (Males
playing Female Characters, and Females playing Male
Character)
Simply put: We do not allow it within the Nexxus Game.
Further, if/when we discover that a player is
gender-bending, they will be removed from the lists.
In past games, we have had too many problems with people
who play characters who are not the same gender they,
themselves, are. Too many players had problems with it,
especially when it came to the development of character
relationships. So we now make it a policy not to allow
Gender Bending.
We make only ONE exception to this rule. Because the Nexxus
Game allows players to take on a second character after a
certain level of advancement, if the player wishes to play
a sibling of their current character, THEN we will consider
allowing it.
We realize this seems discriminatory, but we will never
claim to be anything other than discriminating. We take
great care with our players and their happiness with the
game, and until the players indicate that they are comfortable with
the idea, that's the way it's going to be.
So please, when creating your character, do not submit a
character that is not the same gender you are. If you are
male, submit a male character. If you are female, submit a
female character. It makes life easier on all of us.
Thanks
