feedback on their characterization and dialogue.
Oh my god I just read the wiki, and Yao is agender!!!! They're probably gonna be the most prominent not-cis NPC ever in the game!!! Hell yeah!!!!!
I looked through the wiki, and I knew about Sya already, but I completely missed Myrun Skialkin somehow! Still only 3 NPCs, but 9 years of baby steps get you somewhere!
I'm a little late getting back to you, but yes! It's time we do better about including non-binary characters. We loved Jormag, but wanted to create NB human (as in non-creature, non-robot) characters as well. Baby steps, as you said.
Yao is an internal favorite, and I'll say that there are other NPCs coming in End of Dragons to keep an eye out for.

oh, interesting, I was unaware of that "feature"
Hey Paul, is there a way to make these emails look more legit? Please look into that if you got time to avoid this sort of understandable confusion
I'm not sure that there is. It is an email from an @arena.net email address, whose call to action is to reply. There are no links in it, and since the from field is an @arena.net email address, the response would go to our mail servers (unless there's a man-in-the-middle attack). I fully support being hyper-vigilant for scams, but I don't know what can be done to make this look more legitimate.
