Guild Wars 2

I see different types of tails on NPC Charr is there an option to have different tails linked to face or hairstyle or something?

Male and female Charr have different tails. Male tails are lion-like while female tails are fluffy. Is that what you mean?

Well on some male NPCs they do have a different tail

you know what, it is the female tail I am looking at. Some of the male charr npcs have it.

I wish you could have the option to switch tails

No they don’t. ALL male charr have lion tails, and ALL female charr have fluffy tails. If you’re looking at a charr with a fluffy tail, it is a female charr.

No they don’t. ALL male charr have lion tails, and ALL female charr have fluffy tails. If you’re looking at a charr with a fluffy tail, it is a female charr.

Except if you wear CoF light armor pants, then it’s always a lion tail regardless of their gender.

I have noticed on occasion a male-bodied Charr with a female voice up at the harpy mortar quest by Vir’s Gate Waypoint. Could be a similar mistake. If you look at the face and the rest of the body you should be able to tell for sure. They don’t share any faces.

Some of the charr NPCs have voices that don’t match the character gender.

Reminds me of a order of whispers event where they got the wrong gender for a npc

Edit: Ministry guard is on the right that is speaking.

That’s true, but it’s a glitch.

Actually, you see this throughout human and charr military. Every commander is referred to as “Sir” regardless of gender. The Vigil has “Ma’am” though—so it could just be personal preference of the commander in question. I get the sense that “Sir” is a more gender-neutral term in Guild Wars 2 universe.
I’ve also noticed that humans, when talking about soldiers, always say “The men”—even though at least half the army is compromised of female soldiers. They could be using “Men” as in “Mankind”—which would mean “the men—male and female”
