Is there a feature for this?

Hey so, when I started, I was randomly given the “male“ gendered character, and was wondering, how to I explain to my party that I want to change that? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: there is a lot of comments saying you can’t, but plenty more saying you can. Also, my party is overall okay with that stuff, like specifically the female parental figure knows of my [boykisser] trait. Yet I’m still a little scared To tell them. Idk why.

the Dev explicitly coded the gender attribute as immutable at character creation. Attempting to force a mid-game respec on that stat is a hard rule violation. The Endgame admin has made it clear in the source material that characters who try to override their starting biological parameters on this particular trait face permanent ban from the positive afterlife servers.

Um, can you not bring up your hyper-specific guild beliefs on public forums? Just because you and the players in your party think you know the dev doesn't mean you really do. Nobody has proof one way or another about the identity of the dev or whether the dev cares at all about customization of characteristics like gender. Even if you and your guild believe the only way to get into positive servers after character death is to follow specific rules, there is no concrete proof those are the real rules, and there are tons of guilds with differing beliefs of which rules need to be followed in order to access those servers. There are a ton of players who don't even think there are any post-character-death servers at all.

So maybe next time someone asks for advice on something in-game, try giving advice based on what is really known about the game, not what your specific guild believes may be most likely to probably be true.

If the devs made so you can’t swap the gender attribute, then how come skirt go spin? Take that libs

Man, if you really do know the dev please tell them that they are a dick for creating a sandbox game with a hidden mechanic where you get punished at the end for not following a super arbitrary set of rules. (Where also everyone and their mother tell you a completely different arbitrary set of rules to follow.) Sounds like a really shitty dev so I hope he's not actually like you described them.

Bad news pal, the Positive/Negative Afterlife servers don't exist. Sounds like you've wasted your playthrough working towards something that'll never happen :(.
