so per GM Mavis i was told to post here my frustration at there being no options to change a characters gender! now i know it may not seem a big thing to most people but as a trans person who plays the game i find characters that i created pre transition very triggering. now games like World of Warcraft allow you to be able to change race and gender for a fee so why can we not do that here for those of us who have been playing for years and all we want to do is have a little more customizing options for our characters. #lgbtqia #transgender

    Yeah this is something that has been requested for over a decade especially being that one of the most common characters made were fake Cardassian aliens. However one of the problems they have with the name change is that a lot of times the name never changes to what the original name is as far as the ground devices and certain dialogue. Also a weird thing with how one KDF Klingon I have his name can never be capitalized. So yeah name, gender, race, etc changes that work would be welcome.

    just bumping this. I have had my main character for over 10 years and id like to keep it. Id pay for a token if I had to, but a toggle in the tailor would be awesome too. Just saying

    Two years ago in a livestream we got the information that supposedly the devs are working on a option to change a character's sex, however it was said to be technically complicated to implement the swapping option from champions online. There was no indication as to when the feature might be added.​​
