The sex or gender of a character (male or female) is chosen when he or she is created.

Gender roles in TibiaEdit

As far as we know, Tibia has no programmed adjustments for any skill areas based on sex. The following observations are worth noting, however:

• Female characters cannot sell loot at the Outlaw Camp because H.L., the NPC there, refuses to speak to women. The reason for this is unknown. It could be that H.L. thinks women are not suited for a life of medieval adventuring. Some players speculate that H.L. is, in fact, gay.
• Female characters are less likely to be targeted for player killing.
• Many (perhaps most) female characters are male in real-life, whereas very few male characters are played by real-life females.

Changing sexEdit

A player can change the sex of a character, but this costs EUR 2,95 per character. In the past it was posible to change your sex, by sacrificing 5 premium days. Now a credit card is needed.
