A few years ago I made a trip to the makeover mage and changed my character from male to female.

I didn’t understand what compelled me to do it, but it felt good. I was weirdly excited, and afterwards spent hours trying on different cosmetics, and eventually even changed my name to something more feminine.

I loved playing as her. I couldn’t tell you why at the time, but it felt comfortable. Given a few more years, I’ve begun my real-life gender transformation.

Thank you to RuneScape for giving me a safe place to explore my identity. It probably would have taken me longer without this game.

Ps: I ignore and block haters

Perhaps we should change our motto from "Play Your Way" to "Be the person you've always wanted to be".

I'm very glad you felt comfortable and safe to do this in Gielinor before taking that step in real life!
