The troll Urako is a female on P99 green and should be a male or is it a sign
 
Sign that I should have rolled an ogre shaman or a sign of the times ?

Truthfully. I don't know where to post it. Im not going to post any quest dialogue because it appears in many quests (and it might not be the appropriate forum).

But both on the wiki page and in the quest dialogue, the troll NPC Urako is a male. But P99 Green uses the troll female model.

Kind of a laugh. Like when I made my first character a dwarf 20 years ago and almost went with the bearded female.

GM suggested I post here.

Generally bugs have more success here if there is classic evidence.

If this is just a staff mistake this alone will be enough, but if there's any question of the correct gender, and you (or anyone else) can find an old (<2002) reference to Urako that shows that he/she should be a she, that would make this a "slam dunk".

FWIW Zam has two versions of her (because of the LoY invasion of Grobb), and both are female: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/wik...ambiguation%29

Not classic but ... it seems unlikely Verant changed her gender ...

Ah, appears to be just a slight staff mistake, as you mentioned then.

We can move this thread over or keep it here, whatever is best.

All of the he/his/him in that NPC speech refer to Kaglari, who is also a female Troll. Not sure what to think.

That's not what I am reading in the screenshot I posted. Urako tells you in one "speech" that Kaglari had asked Urako not to open "HIS closet". And the NPC URAKO is female. But yes, either way. You are right.They are both female NPC's on P99 Green, correct.

Videri 04-14-2020 02:17 PM

The closet belongs to Kaglari. That's why Urako didn't know there's a skeleton in it. If anything, the dialog implies Kaglari should be male, but doesn't indicate anything about Urako's sex.

Ah, it appears you are not reading or understanding then.

I am here posting a bug or something that has not been dealt with

that is all.

I'm not trying to piss you off. Urako works for Kaglari. That's why Kaglari is making Urako clean Kaglari's quarters.

Anyway, yeah, one or both of these characters should be male, or the dialog should be changed.
