      Non binary actually!

      Edit: It looks like I’m wrong! See down below. The dev is enby while the mascot appears to be a girl

            In the previous post Xe said they’ve been commissioned to make Anubis mascot. So I believe that makes Xe the artist ?

            Gender-neutral term are never wrong and maybe there was another source for it.

            Not sure who has the technical authority to decide the pronouns of a fictional character, commissioned artist or the commissioner.

              the joke is that while discussing if a character has neutral or female pronouns, you referred to the character by the neutral pronouns while declaring that the character is female.

              I managed to write that whole sentence while avoiding saying “they” or “her”. Go me!

          The artist (according to the attributions file on the github) also gives her female pronouns, I think they avoid it though I see the word mascot used most often.

          edit: linked attributions file as well because it’s served in an unconventional location.

        So far we got

        • not a cat but jackal
        • not a girl but nonbinary
        • not a heart but canada leaf

        I’ll add

        • not “something to watch” but OC
        • not a nurse
