The character editor of Baldur’s Gate 3 (Steam) gives you the freedom to customize your genitals, body types, and pronouns.
Baldur’s Gate 3 will be released on August 3rd for PC and brings a range of customization options for your character. In addition to 11 playable races and 12 different classes, you can also make choices that turn you into an ultimate villain.
The role-playing game aims to provide you with the opportunity to experience your own unique adventure. This is reflected not only in 17,000 alternative endings but also in the character editor.
How exactly the character editor of Baldur’s Gate 3 works and what customization options exist for the various races has been explained by lead artist Alena Dubrovina to the American online magazine Kotaku. The developer also stated that you have the option to customize your genitals, body types, and pronouns freely.
Genitals can be chosen independently of body type
What kind of choice is that? As lead artist Alena Dubrovina revealed, you can select your character’s genitals in Baldur’s Gate 3 and even adjust the pubic hair. The genitals you choose are independent of your body type or pronouns.
There are said to be four different body types, which are not marked by gender symbols but are continuously numbered. The options include smaller and larger builds.
Additionally, you choose your character’s voice and pronouns separately. You have male, female, and non-binary options available (via Kotaku).
What else was shown about the character editor? Another small highlight seen in the character editor is the reptilian tail of the Dragonborn race.
In some comments on YouTube, players express their delight over the customization option, even though Dragonborns according to ‘Dungeons and Dragons’ lore actually do not have a tail.
In general, the details for the individual races have been convincing. It was positively highlighted that the gnomes have longer arms. Overall, the role-playing game currently generates great anticipation among its fans:
