Poll - Cheese Dong: boy, girl, something else?

[waynehead]

Well, whaddya think? Guy, gal, or somewhere in between? I'll say guy to get the ball rolling.

Uhm...the ACX manual (at least the German version) states very clearly he's a guy, so there's little to guess about it.

To me, he's just a kid. A bit androgynous maybe. I still wouldn't allow him to take part in the outdoor-disco-nights with Deirdre, so he can experiment with the differences. That's way past bedtime for him...

[Alinestra Covelia]

The manual and game state that he is a boy.

However, the credits show clearly that a female voice was used for his voiceovers. That, combined with the fact that his facial portrait looks nothing like a young boy and more like an adult woman (albeit very strange) convinces me that Firaxis purposefully made or changed him to be a young boy prophet.

This may have been for reasons of sensationalism, or of cheap character thrills.

Either way, I don't like him and strive to capture him as early as I can. We'll see how his "holy divine vision" fares against good ol' down-to-earth weapons.

I'm not clear on the gender but I'd sure like a word with his/her/its fashion consultant.

[LoD]

Well, perhaps it is both? Or so they intended ...

In any case, I find his character the least believable and engaging of all. I look forward to seeing his torture sequence, A) because I'm interested to see if he's smaller than all the rest, and B) whether or not he'll have a woman's cry of pain or a man's.

I have strange interests.

Seeing Cha Dawn in that punishment sphere just brings a tear to my eye. I can't stand the little bastard no matter what sex IT is. I don't recall whether the scream is male or female, though.

I realize the manual states that Cha Dawn is a boy, but IT sure looks like a girl to me.

Torturing a little, helpless boy just to analyze his scream: If I hadn't known that Alinestra was obsessed with Yang before, I sure know it now. I can already see the entry in the datalinks:

"As I read the accustic frequency wave of Cha Dawn's scream on the graphic equalizer, I realized once more that pain is merely a sensory input that results in air compression as output. The laws of cause and effect rule the human body even at the point of imminent death."

Just to spoil your fun, I loaded funboy.wve directly from the explorer: He's as big as all the other folks in the P-sphere, and he sound very male.
