She or He...or It?

[...] all pets seem to have a female base [...]

In the files, 0 means "no gender modifier". 1 means male. Game-mechanic wise, there aren't any females. Just genderless and male.

Creepy...

Hmmm,i havent really thought of that.

DeathWarp,girl, i like my pets to be boys, but she has always had the female feel to her. She isnt what men dream about when it comes to looks, but she has a strong will, and a never ending love for her master.

Marrok,boy, He is a very loyal, ferocious, big, blue wolf. Hes got a bad attitude, when you piss him off you better mount up and leave, you cant out run him.

Dakota,boy, hes always had the personality of a dog, loyal, loving, cuddly, protective, strong, and still loves to play at the end of the day.

Synyster,boy, hes always ready for a fight, he hates the alliance with a passion, thats why he is my pvp buddy. He is friendly towards the horde, and often plays with the children, if they arent scared of his pressence. He helped his master out when she had her orphan, he entertained him during there adventures.

Billijoe, boy, he doesnt have a care in the world, hes clumbsy, but strong, and after falling and running into things for years he has become tough, and can take a hit with ease. Thats why he takes on the role as tank when DeathWarp is taking a break. His heads always play while his master is waiting.

Niabi, are your pets grouped by hunter? If so, it looks like you have a bit of a color theme going on most of them!

You betcha! I am ALL about the theming :0)

Bob Barker (the game show host who often admonished viewers to fix their pets )would be proud!

Well Loqu HAS to be male since hes the mate of Haoku (sorry miss spell) and Hoaku in her name is the "goddess of something" so Loqu is a male spirit Beast!

This actually does not work, much I hate to be the bearer of bad news. With the exception of maned lions, all pets seem to have a female base, meaning that they will always become female when cursed by the Wetlands mobs. This includes even warlock pets such as voidwalkers:

(Possibly NSFW, voidwalkers with, uh. Secondary sex characteristics.)

I don't know about the specifics of innate pet gender or lack thereof, but I do know that Humar, my dragonhawk and Old Cliffy turned into male undead, whereas Araga and Grubthor were female.

Not that i'm saying all pets of the same skin/family are the same gender though, another of my dragonhawks was female. So either i'm hallucinating, or it does/did work.

Every pet I've had has been male to me except 1 brown devilsaur & maybe the strider clutchmother. I suppose it doesn't really matter either way since they won't be breeding or having babies anytime in this game.

My slime is an 'it'. Slimes and oozes in WoW apparently reproduce by fission or cloning, so a male/female binary gender isn't an appropriate concept for them. Well, at least not for mine. 's personality is firmly ungendered.

I tend to use 'he/his' when I need to refer to my slime in public though, primarily because most people don't recognize the various formations I might use, like 'xe', 'hir', 'ou' or, as above, ''s' for the possessive.

(More on gender-neutral pronouns here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender-neutral_pronoun)

But just to be clear, I'm not just drawing lines. My slime's personality is distinctly ungendered.

[Wassa]

For my current pets:

Hahadori, female.
Mimizuku, female.
Kintari, genderless since it's a ghost, but I usually call it a he.
Hirameku, male.
Hukarere, I haven't decided yet. I'm sure Skoll is male for lore reasons but I gave him a female name, hehe.

Other pets I had or have on hunter alts:

I've have two Ressan's on alts. Ghostwing is male while Anahera is female.
Sakki, female. This is Sakki version 2.0.
Brokentusk, male.
Empress, female, since she was Princess in game.

Hmmm, let's see. I have two hunters, one that I have at 80 and I love playing, the other is at 12 on a seperate server (for when mine goes down. Scryers is bad for that for some reason.)

On Asliasa, my 80, I've got...

Soshiro, who is male. Lion..male..can't help it!

Kaya, who is female. Got her from Shy-Rotam so I kept her female.

Sunki, male of course. Sparky puppy, yay!

Tsukuyomi, male. Mate of Harkoa...I can't change it, no matter what I try.

Odin, my newest baby. Male, like a lot of my other pets. He's so cute, despite the purple (I hate purple) even when he tries to knock me over with his tail...yay for petemotes!


On Akiralios, my baby hunter (only horde that I have), I've got...
Jonny, male. Named after someone I met online. It was a joke between us, I doubt that he remembers.


I have a lot of male pets O.o maybe I should try and get more females on Akiralios...
