Issue/Problem/Bug: The quest text of the quest "In Search for the Lost Memory" says that Athena Pierce is a he. Instead, she's female!
Describe the problem. Be as specific as possible!:
Nothing more to say. Just another typo from NEXON.

I remember a thread about a female ariant npc that also had the same problem, so there's also probably plenty more shemale npcs out there.

They could at least identify the gender from the name. I mean, come on, how can someone called "Athena" be a male?

b>nexon to browse this part of the forum once in a while ;_;
But yeah, a few versions do this to. Direct translators who just translate exactly make for gender errors...... this Kyrin being male in SEA.

IIRC, a few of the 4th job skill quests also refer to Athena as a he.

She's a girl, dang it. If she's not, I'd feel conflicted inside.
I noticed Sirin's a while ago, but nice catch on that one.

Andrea can be a name for a male or female :f6:

Jade in El Nath is also a he apparently. During the "Looking for the book of ancient" quest, there were references made to Jade by ???? or Spurina!

Athena is a goddess from Greek mythology. Them naming a guy that, and making the NPC look like a girl while actually intending it to be a guy would be one hell of a translation error. Also, while it's been a while, I recall that the various bowman promotion stuffs refer to Athena as a "she." So, I think this is just a typo.
