In Redemption®, all humans are either male or female. Usually the picture makes it obvious which a character is, but sometimes it is difficult to tell (sometimes there are a male and a female in the picture, and you don’t know to which the name refers). In this case, use the passage as the guide.
EXAMPLE: Jael is the female in the background of the card art. Abigail is a female name, and she is the one giving David wise counsel in the card art.
SPECIAL: Workers with Familiar Spirits is considered male.
EXCEPTION: Saint of Virtue is the gender of the person who is using the card.
Non-Human Characters
These characters are also treated as having a gender. This is determined using the following:
• Card Title/Verse text: If the title or verse refers to a character with words such as ‘he’ or ‘his’ or ‘Prince,’ etc., then the character is to be treated as male (e.g., Red Dragon, Beast from the Sea, Beast from the Earth).
• Card Art: If the character appears to be male, it is treated as male (e.g., Evil Angel, Fallen Angel, Locust from the Pit). If the character appears to be female, it is treated as female (e.g., Spirit of Doubt).
Genderless Characters
There are only a few Characters in the game that do not give clues as to gender, and are thus treated as genderless. They are:
• Angry Mob, Bear, Complainers, Doubt, Frog Demons (Warriors) or Frog Demons (Promo), Idolaters, Madness, Priests of Christ, The Bear, and The Jeering Youths
