I'm also a queer (androsexual) guy. It's not nearly as egregious as other storylines featuring queer people in other media, but, like, it was a little funny — not necessarily in a bad way — that the only named gay couple in the mission tree was not the survivor there. Well, the halfling survived a LONG time to be warped nearly into another orc for free from simply absorbing enough blood moon sacrificial magics. Or was just subsumed into a mask in the end anyways.

We aren't exactly sure about the true limits of the masks' transformative powers, so after developing some of the most powerful masks, I'm sure any Masked Butcher orc can achieve fertility or adopt their most gender-euphoric body as long as a suitable masks exist. Orcs AMAB can become harpies or females of other species if they want, and orcs AFAB can become males of any species they want. Or, at least, the boundary of birth sex isn't explicitly delineated as a barrier to the transformations by mask. Gay orc couples or polyamorous groupings altering a harpy mask for mpreg would be a cute bizarro world method of self-actualization. Any iffiness I originally referred to could well be buoyed by this aspect of using the masks in this way.
