Summary

Dragon Age: The Veilguard introduces a non-binary character to the series.
For the first time, the player character can also be non-binary.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age: The Veilguard features a non-binary character. This comes after 🎶many fans had wondered if one of the companions was n꧃on-binary, as promotional material frequently referred to them with they/them pron൲oꦏuns.

While the series has never shied away from LGBTQ+ themes and characters, this is the first time that we've seen a non-binary person in the games, as well as been able to play as a non-binary character ourselves. It also allows for the concept of gender to be explored in Thedas once more, after trans identities were touched upon in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age: Inquisition. Spoiler warning for Dragon Age: The VeilguardYes, as we initially suspected, Taash is 🍸non-binary. This makes the qunari companion 🅺potentially the first non-binary character we've come across in the Dragon Age series - unless you opted to make your Rook non-binary of course. In which case, you've just stolen the title from them, I suppose.

Taash's gender identity is part of their person💦al journey, so it's something they discover about themselves during the game. This explains why they were also referred to with she/her pronouns in some promotional material, as BioWare seemed to want to keep this under wraps. Taash is🎐 probably the companion we heard the least about prior to launch too, likely for the same reason.

The Player Character Can Also Be Non-Binary In Dragon Age: The Veilguard

As mentioned above, Rook can always be non-binary. This is one of the three gender options available in the character creator, and you can also select pronouns separately. Later on, y▨ou can even hit a dialogue option to confirm that you're trans, which will give you 🐻additional 💟dialogue options at certain points in the game.

Previously, Dragon Age: Inquisition had a trans man character, Krem. The word trans wasn't used, however, and he was instead 𓆉referred to with a word from the🃏 Qunari, "aqun-athlok", which can encompass trans people. However, we now know that the word trans is used in Thedas too.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is out noဣw, available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
