I thought it to be gender nuterual, only stressing the E in his accent. It could be shE or hE is still out there, and not a gender specific way of speech.

Not if you follow 'normal' speech patterns. I actually had this same conversation today about a completely different subject but with the same content. E is always 'he' because the 'British Isle' speech pattern drops the pronunciation of the 'ha' on any word beginning in H (except the pronunciation of the letter H or HAY-ch which Americans pronoun AY-ch ). If another letter proceeds it, the first letter sounds but the 'h' is still 'high pallet' (or softer) than and American word pronounced the same way 'low pallet' (or harder).

Though English is a Germanic language, American dialect more directly draws on the roots than the English dialect. Clear as mud?

IOW - Durkon would have had to say S(h)e or Se or hye (if he has a speech impediment that buries first consanants)

Sounds a bit like... Schröderings Halfling? Is the halfling in the bag dead, alive or really pissed?

Even in the real world, there are religious groups that proscribe caffeinated beverages.

IMC, Coffee functions as Holy Water.

Jolt, on the other hand, is Unholy.

Maybe I'm squinting too close to the screen but does it look to anyone else as if her tatoo reads:

I "HEART" (rest obscured by curve of back.)

When did she get her tatoo? Is it "I heart Elan" ... or "gold"? Or "1 gp = 1 XP"? Or....

And we can all ignore the part of a 1d rendering of a "stick figure" having curves....
