Athena Pierce is a she! - Combattente - 2009-06-29

Issue/Problem/Bug: The quest text of the quest "In Search for the Lost Memory" says that Athena Pierce is a he. Instead, she's female!

Describe the problem. Be as specific as possible!:
Nothing more to say. Just another typo from NEXON.

I remember a thread about a female ariant npc that also had the same problem, so there's also probably plenty more shemale npcs out there. Goggleemoticon

Lack of gender identifiers in Korean + Lazy translators = ?

Athena Pierce is a she! - Combattente - 2009-06-29

They could at least identify the gender from the name. I mean, come on, how can someone called "Athena" be a male?

How can someone called "Combattente" be a male?

Sirin, the exotic dancer....

b>nexon to browse this part of the forum once in a while ;_;

But yeah, a few versions do this to. Direct translators who just translate exactly make for gender errors...... this Kyrin being male in SEA. Excellent

IIRC, a few of the 4th job skill quests also refer to Athena as a he.

She's a girl, dang it. If she's not, I'd feel conflicted inside.

I noticed Sirin's a while ago, but nice catch on that one.

Andrea can be a name for a male or female :f6:

So why wouldn't Athena?

Elves tend to have names that go both ways (lol).

athena is a trap, go figure

Jade in El Nath is also a he apparently. During the "Looking for the book of ancient" quest, there were references made to Jade by ???? or Spurina!

Yea. and these quests were translated by Wizet, so you can be sure that there are no mistakes.

Athena is a goddess from Greek mythology. Them naming a guy that, and making the NPC look like a girl while actually intending it to be a guy would be one hell of a translation error. Also, while it's been a while, I recall that the various bowman promotion stuffs refer to Athena as a "she." So, I think this is just a typo.
