Actually — take a look at an earlier strip Zhusen was in. Vedrana refers to him as a “cool guy” and he looks a bit downcast as being referred to as such. Apparently it’s for different reasons than expected. Looks like Zhusen may have been a lady all along.
Longshot but Z could be trans? 0.o I have a friend who figured it out through games, specifically WoW where you can be who you wanna be (to an extent).
Plus haven’t they heard Z on teamspeak before worth a guy voice?
I know you can change hair color/type but can you change gender/species/skin color/class in most?
And do any games give a stat difference based on gender.
In World of Warcraft, you can change your gender and your race, along with any other cosmetic options but you cannot change your class. If your class is race-specific (For example, only Night Elves, Tauren, Worgen, and Troll can be Druids) then you can only change into the other races attached to that class. Your gender has absolutely no bearing on gameplay mechanics.
No doesn’t affect mechanics but cosmetic changes can be extreme. We have all come aross the chest pieces that cover the torso on a male toon and becomes two metal cups on a female too.
I dont think any game has been so terrible since 1st edition dnd to give different stats based on gender. in Warcraft right now its 10$ to change your characters appearance. you can change hair and a few features in the barber shop, now including face due tot he model upgrades (since some people might not like the attitude of the new face, ect). So basically main reasons to pay for that is a name change, skin tone change, or gender change.
SW:TOR has had a similar thing via in-game appearance modification terminals where anything except class can be changed. It uses their microtransaction currency, but subs get enough each month to do basic hair/etc. changes a few times a month for the RPers to play with.
p.s. Not sure if the commentary is mostly jokes or not but for those who dont know abuse against women is horribly rampant in online games, especially pvp ones and Warcraft included. Many women dont use teamspeak or even play female characters because they’ve had a bad experience before. If one thinks “just do what you want, forget about the haters’ then you dont realize the level of stalking, harrassment, and abuse that happens…..In fact…..the main character’s story kinda revolves around this? in case you forgot the very realistic villain in this series. But i understand that many readers here might not have experience with this. But Yes women playing male characters and avoiding team speak is a very common occurance. I dont want to presume Zhusen’s situation but i’m glad she’s realized that with her raid leader and main tank at least she’s found a safe guild.
I second Cuthbert! Well said, indeed! I count myself as fortunate that my main guild is an older, mature one, with quite a few women as officers (current and past) and most freely using our Discord.
My other guild, however, is Robin’s on Wyrmrest Accord, which just needs more people of any gender, roll a Horde toon and say hi! (Lol, shameless plug)
Please stop spreading this nonsense. The only people who are ostracized for reasons relating to gender, religion, beliefs in general are because they make THAT aspect all they are online. If you don’t bring any attention to it, none will be given. It is as simple as that, I think I would know, I’ve raided since Vanilla and been playing online games since wc2,I’ve never seen anyone who didn’t bring identity politics into their game be harassed as such… Besides Mila Kunis. Shut up Meg.
I assume you speak from experience as a woman? Or maybe you should STFU and listen to the women in the room. Seriously.
I’d apologize for the harsh tone, but the reality is I’m not sorry. Other people are literally saying “this exact thing happens to me” and your response seems to consistently be “well it must be your fault”. Just stop it. Not just here, but anywhere else you may do this too.
I’ve been playing online games since MUDs in the 1990’s. I have experienced several instances throughout my gaming history, where the way other players treated me changed upon learning I was a RL female. It’s not something I broadcast, though I have never lied about it either. I wasn’t looking for attention, I just wanted to play. I didn’t think being a girl should have any effect on that, but other people thought otherwise.
Just because you didn’t see it, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
There goes my one good male role model in this comic. Guess my choices now are a loud mouth teenager, asshole guild thief, lazy self centered douche, and troll.
Questionable Content does. So depending on what happens on Wednesday (Robin’s comment was sufficiently non-commital for me to have no idea) I’ll know exactly two. So yes, everywhere. Every single webcomic out there, all two of them. But crises of diversity are pretty over-represented in webcomics.
I could actually go into a decent-sized list of the things I regularly read with trans characters, some of which are the main character.
* El Goonish Shive (while there’s a bunch of magical/technological transformations of many sorts, and this isn’t explicitly said until a comic in the last 5 years or so [it’s been going since about 1999-2000, and I think I found it while still an egg who was beginning to crack her eggshell in 2001], but Tedd is explicitly Genderfluid, and many characters have broadened their concepts of gender & sexuality, both internal and external)
* Misfile (technically, the character is trans… but mostly in the sense that an angel fucked up and filed him under “girl” and another person into being 2 years younger. “Trans” is never mentioned, most likely because he is still just waiting on angelic intervention to fix the issue, and also because he was originally a dude…)
* Questionable Content (as Ilmaaate already said; really funny, and the trans character is actually done *reallllly* well for a cis, male comic maker [and he’s actually extremely sweet to meet in person]; while it doesn’t have a trans person in it, his other comic Alice Grove is very interesting and funny, too, if you like a more far-future, explicitly sci-fi setting than QC’s nearer-future)
* Validation Comic (more of a day-in-the-life sort of comic following a trans woman; writer or artist is trans, iirc; relatively new, at most a year or two old, so the backlog isn’t as large as most of the above ones)
* Life of Bria (more of a politically comedic comic, but she also does an interview-per-episode podcast that she uploads to Youtube; trans herself)
* Trans Girl Next Door (more of a blog-type comic explaining/complaining/joking about common trans girl issues)
* Manic Pixie Nightmare (similar: more of a blog-type comic, with a bit darker of a sense of humor, I think. Not as dark as one particular webcomic I sparingly read while I was in the closet but out of the egg that I can’t remember, but at least there’s usually some degree of humor if it’s not a depressing comic)
* Assigned Male (a comedic, alternate-history [?] take on the author’s childhood, but with plenty of political commentary, too [but I mean, aside from QC which treats her trans status as just another adjective like it should ideally be, when *isn’t* a trans character/RL-person inherently “political” just for existing..? T_T])
I also still follow a lot of other comics I started following while I was still an egg due to the transformations, but now I mostly follow them because of the characters and stories themselves rather than for gratuitous wish-fulfillment.
I know I’m a bit late to the party (7 years wow) but I have also seen unfortunately few. One of the main characters in the webcomic Aurora is a transman, but it’s not a big focus of the story unfortunately. I’ll have to check out some of the ones other people have mentioned though!
Yeah, I got that sinking feeling of seeing a comedy webcomic that I love about to try to make a dramatic arc of an issue it really isn’t qualified to handle. Not in a deprecating way towards the quality, but in tone and style. Tokenism has killed many a webcomic.
Also, Robin, regardless of how this turns out I am curious and looking forward to wednesday! This comic has been great so far and brings back a lot of good memories for me, and makes me consider jumping into another MMO (sadly, Warcraft broke my heart this expansion with how they handled the death of Vol’jin, since I mainly play trolls, so I haven’t been able to hop on since).
Zhusen is one of my favorite characters and I can’t wait to see where their arc goes, becoming more outspoken and brave and all that. 😀
Having a token character is to have a character who is there only for the sake of diversity, and has no other characteristics besides their diversity. This, ‘the token gay’ character is the stereotype who is only there to say gay catchphrases and handle gay issues, and never has a role beyond that.
Having a character with a established personality and character growth arc (being to obliging/shy) come out as trans would not be that.
Source, your friendly neighborhood trans person who is a English major and writer and who is tired y’all. Please stop using hand-wringing over this false idea of tokenism to try and prevent diversity from happening. Trust me when a character is a token the respective marginalized communities will raise hell, we’ve got this element of fighting for our representation.
You’re right it’s not textbook “token” what’s happening. More like bandwagoneering, resulting in an effect reminiscent of Mary-Sue characters, with SJW sauce.
And, er, it’s not like the special interest groups are under-represented in webcomics, “online media”, “social networks”, and so on. More like the other way around. So many teeny tiny tinier tiniest interest groups making lots of loud vocal issue noise that it’s getting tiresome. In some circles, being part of the boring massive mass of uninteresting non-special normal people is, er, reason for getting called all sorts of names. Maybe that’s in reaction to getting called names, but that’s no reason to assume everyone not part of your in-group will do that.
There’s quite a bit of falsity in having to bend over backwards for groups that swept together make up less than a half percent of the population and still getting called on perceived slights and whatnots. So me personally, I’ve pretty much had it with the specialty of the snowflakes. The longer the LBGTQAIZOMGWTFBBQROFLCOPTER acronym gets, the less patience I have with it. I honestly don’t care if you want to be yourself right up until you force me to take notice, to acknowledge your validity, to make special allowance, or whatnot. It’s this “in your face, world!” that’s causing the drama.
And likewise, it makes little sense to equip every story with the apparently required “diversity” just to stay with the times. That makes for stories with very little staying power and of interest mostly to the diversity bunch, moreso than the people interested in following a story, even a slice-of-MMO narrative.
I have been trying ever so hard to be relatively diplomatic in my responses, but no longer. I agree. You’re still my favourite webcomic artist, Robin, but it feels like this idea is not entirely your own. It very well could be, but it doesn’t feel like it.
And I agree that people can be what they want to be, but it’s irritating when its forced upon people who aren’t part of that culture. Part of my opinion is probably shaped by the overzealous minority making the entirety look bad, but its still my opinion and I’ll stick by it.
I’m not going to lay everything out in the comments, that’s what the comic itself is for, but I will say this: This storyline has been planned since Zhusen’s first strip went up on the site.
I get what you’re saying, but racial tokenism wasn’t commonly realised before MLK. Then it started to be recognised as an issue. Hell, token trans people are in video games nowadays. Look at Krem in Dragon Age Inquisition and Ned Wynhert/Wynhart/however its spelled from Assassins Creed Syndicate (and maybe Unity) so perhaps we’ve not had anyone (to my knowledge) come out and say that these people are being tokenised.
I’m not trying to prevent diversity, I just don’t want a beloved webcomic to go from witty banter to walls of text made of an article on transsexuality *cough*questionablecontent*cough*
Which isn’t really fair on Robin OR Jacques, since it was only three or four walls of text in about 12 years of comics, and Robin’s shown herself to be a writer more than good enough to not project her opinions onto the webcomic (even if I >80% agree)
Yes, I agree with this. It certainly seems as if Zhusen might be trans, and as long as it’s well written and fits into the story I wouldn’t consider it tokenism. On the contrary, a guild/raidmember turning out to be trans and how that is received is something that’s very much a reality in online gaming.
Might not be as relevant considering that the characters in game may look nothing like the actual players (although I’m guessing that Orhan ando Lys are since they’re siblings IRL and both made toons around the same skin tone) but she’s got three black characters and not once made it a defining focus.
Besides the comics been dealing with stuff like gender/identity for a while from Murd hiding his age to Vedrana’s early advise to Keran and the debacle with Orhan. I’m sure Robin knows what she’s doing, and to be fair we’ve all got ideas but really no telling where this is headed till Wednesday!
Was thinking exactly that. They were all so worried “the woke mob” was convincing Robin of adding a “token” character when that was far from what was happening.
I’ve been on both sides of this relationship in my younger years. Probably not with the same trepidation that Zhus seems to have, but yeah, it’s definitely not a comfortable experience to try and show who you are after everyone’s been used to your online identity showing one thing instead of another.
It’s a pretty solid place to discuss difficult topics, though. Next to no slander, and we’re all pretty mature about it, and the conversations only last as long as it takes for the next comic to come out, and there never seems to be any hard feelings. (I dont, anyway. If someone does have beef, give us a buzz at mayz9001@gmail.com, I’m happy to talk stuff out)
Soooo either he did something he shouldn’t have, he was really a she this whole time, or he got hacked. My money is on hacks.
Actually — take a look at an earlier strip Zhusen was in. Vedrana refers to him as a “cool guy” and he looks a bit downcast as being referred to as such. Apparently it’s for different reasons than expected. Looks like Zhusen may have been a lady all along.

I don’t know how to thumbs up this post, but it deserves one.

My other guild, however, is Robin’s on Wyrmrest Accord, which just needs more people of any gender, roll a Horde toon and say hi! (Lol, shameless plug)
My main guild is mostly women [at least on Discord during raids], it’s just me and 2-3 other guys during raid nights lol

Shut up Meg.
You… you do realize the largest storyline in this comic was one of the main characters being abused by another player because she’s a woman, right?
I do realize it, and its good story. But it is a very rare event. It is not nearly as widespread as most people would have us believe.
The comment right below this one is literally a woman saying it happened to her, too
I assume you speak from experience as a woman? Or maybe you should STFU and listen to the women in the room. Seriously.
I’d apologize for the harsh tone, but the reality is I’m not sorry. Other people are literally saying “this exact thing happens to me” and your response seems to consistently be “well it must be your fault”. Just stop it. Not just here, but anywhere else you may do this too.

Looks like Castor has got a new follower.
The lazy self centered douche and the loud mouth teenager are getting better. Slowly, but better 🙂
The Happy Sunshines are always accepting applications.
Well, the next strip is bound to be interesting.
Time to get that sweet, sweet backstory!
Rare has a Monday had me anticipated Wednesday quite so much.
Ah Zhu is breaking into Alchemy. Makes sense with all those flasks and the terrible hair job. I bet a certain ranger is responsible for this.
Oh Light, Zhusen, please don’t be trans. I can’t handle it in EVERY webcomic.
Can you tell me where these other webcomics are because I, your friendly trans, would love to read them because frankly they are rare.
But I guess if a trans person exists in like, two, then that means we are ‘everywhere’.
Questionable Content does. So depending on what happens on Wednesday (Robin’s comment was sufficiently non-commital for me to have no idea) I’ll know exactly two. So yes, everywhere. Every single webcomic out there, all two of them. But crises of diversity are pretty over-represented in webcomics.

I dont have a problem with trans people, but Robin, if this is heading that way you might want to read up on tokenism.
Yeah, I got that sinking feeling of seeing a comedy webcomic that I love about to try to make a dramatic arc of an issue it really isn’t qualified to handle. Not in a deprecating way towards the quality, but in tone and style. Tokenism has killed many a webcomic.
Sounds like you may have a problem with trans representation then.
Gender and how players treat each other with regards to it is definitely not a new subject for this comic.
Also, Robin, regardless of how this turns out I am curious and looking forward to wednesday! This comic has been great so far and brings back a lot of good memories for me, and makes me consider jumping into another MMO (sadly, Warcraft broke my heart this expansion with how they handled the death of Vol’jin, since I mainly play trolls, so I haven’t been able to hop on since).

Its almost 3am and I’m mooting with fucking strangers on the internet. RIP my dignity
I’m not going to lay everything out in the comments, that’s what the comic itself is for, but I will say this: This storyline has been planned since Zhusen’s first strip went up on the site.
I believe you. It just looked a little convenient.
Okay, sleep for real, I’m working in a few hours
I get what you’re saying, but racial tokenism wasn’t commonly realised before MLK. Then it started to be recognised as an issue. Hell, token trans people are in video games nowadays.

I look forward to seeing how this progresses.
Wow… so many serious comments, and we don’t even know what the story is yet! o.O
It’s a pretty solid place to discuss difficult topics, though. Next to no slander, and we’re all pretty mature about it, and the conversations only last as long as it takes for the next comic to come out, and there never seems to be any hard feelings. (I dont, anyway. If someone does have beef, give us a buzz at mayz9001@gmail.com, I’m happy to talk stuff out)
LoL all this butt mad about a -possible- trans character. It’s 2016. Grow up shitters.
“it’s 2016.” -Taarax, January 10, 2017.
Just makes it MORE pertinent.
Could do, but I think I’ve had enough of all this seriousness, so some insufferable pedantry was in order.
Zhusen looks really cute, that’s all I have to say on the subject.
Heh
ZHUSEN SWEEP!!!!!
