I just had a quick story-related question, in the hopes that I wouldn't have to play through the whole of act 1 with a new character to do my own research.
Is The Absolute's gender dependent on something? When looking up its article on the Forgotten Realms wiki, I see that it's listed as 'male and/or female', but I've only ever heard it referred to as a Goddess/by female pronouns. I should point out that I tend to play female characters, so I haven't had a chance to test it with a male one.
I was wondering if it was connected to the gender of the player character, or perhaps the dream entity (although for my current run I'm using a male entity, and goblins still refer to the Absolute as female). If not, is there a point where it's referred to as male? I haven't encountered that yet. Just curious.
