[2021] Witch/Hex/Warlock

Warlock is a common “mastery” or “class” in video games and isn’t always gender specific in those cases. It is not unheard of to use the “masculine” counterpart to encompass a fantasy for male or female, it happens quite frequently. Games I can think of off the top of my head: World of Warcraft, Rift, Grim Dawn; “Warlock” is still warlock regardless how you make your character. I think calling the term gender-neutral in these cases is correct.

Yes, and like we have mentioned in the past adding gender options is something that isn’t unheard of in the future. It’s just something we couldn’t realistically do before 1.0.

To save development time in the future!

All jokes aside, I wouldn’t overthink it. I wasn’t working at EHG when the mastery class names were discussed but we could have picked Warlock because it sounded cooler than Witch. I know you wouldn’t want that answer.
