Pixies serious question. [Mild spoilers]

The pixies call their ruler king. Kings are guys. Are all the pixies just fabulous men? This questions needs answers!

pfft tell that to the fate series.

Assuming the child spirit concept farther then it may go, then they could all just be hard-er to tell the difference like young children. Or they're magical and they don't have a real specific gender. Certainly some of the VA is done by females though, with no attempt to sound like a young boy lol.

Edit: from a quest I just completed lol-

Watch Amaro: There you are. So tell me, what did you see?
Watch Amaro: Well, if you saw nothing, then I may rest easier. If truth be told, I was beginning to think that perhaps I was simply seeing my own shadow cast upon the fog.
Watch Amaro: By the way, when you looked out to the north, you may have noticed the strange cracks on the mountain face. Do you know how they came to be there?
Watch Amaro: They were hewn out by the faerie king when they fought the invading sin eaters.
Watch Amaro: To be sure, they weren't known as the king then, but simply Titania, ruler of the pixies. And it was they who rose to restore peace to the region in the wake of Voeburt's demise.
Watch Amaro: In the manner in which Titania united us against the sin eaters, the faeries saw an image of the king of fallen Voeburt.
Watch Amaro: So it was that, as a show of respect, we came to likewise refer to them as king. Alas, to our great sorrow, they would be corrupted by the Light and become that which they fought.
Watch Amaro: Those cracks are a reminder of how our king protected us, and beholding them spurs me to remain vigilant. But forgive me, I've gone on quite a ramble. Thank you for helping me to put my worries to rest.

Hmmm, Interesting.

I wondered as well but then I just thought maybe they didn’t have genders and was going by king because they liked how it sounded. *shrugs*

Kings are guys you say?

Given how Faefolk are born in FF14 lore, it seems unlikely that they really have a perceived gender. The only human norm they keep depends on which type they are -- Pixies just want to have fun, Fuah are envious of the things they find interesting, the Nu Mou just want to be of use to people. The Amaro are only 'Faefolk' due to the fact that they reside in Ill Mehg and have gained some mutations, though their love seems to be their strong desire/emotion.

High King Margo can out-fab all of them.

Pretty sure it says in one of uriangers books (I think when you enchant/animate them?), that the pixies adopted that name from the king of the Kingdom of Voeburt, and used it for the ruler of all fae folk. So they simply don't know that king is the "male version" of a ruler, and just see it as the title for a ruler.

The expansion dropped and people are still asking weird questions.

They more than likely don't really have that concept of male/female titles. They just take King as top dog and that's it, to them they are likely thinking why care?

Feo Ul referred to themself as a she, so who knows.

King is a title, usually used for male, but sometimes it can be used for female. There's been female kings in history. Just treat it like a title.

Pixies are androgynous or genderless in my opinion, I wish it was clearly stated if they are males of females because I just get confused by them, even their voices take abrupt changes which only makes it harder to know what they are.


Some player was asking last night if Titania is a trap (transvestite) because is not easy to tell if he/she is male or female.


King is just a title for those trickster fairies!...

Pixies refer to each other using "singular they" pronouns, so it seems they are genderless.

The term 'king' used is explained in the side quests of the zone. Basically it is in reverence to a past ruler.

They refer to their ruler with NB pronouns

I think you've said all there really is to say on the matter. The pixies don't think about gender and are androgynous. I think they look more feminine, but there's nothing that really confirms it. In the end, the fae seem to have chosen king to have been the title of the ruler, regardless of gender.

I play in JP audio and they all sound pretty female to me.
But I don't think it matters in the end. A title is a title, just like a name is but a name.

I think the pixies look like tiny Omega-Ms, actually...

they dont have genders, harold

I believe both the name of Titania and the title of King are both in and of themselves used in a way to cancel each other out, gender-wise.
Titania appeared in Shakespeare's play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream", wherein "Titania" is "Queen" of the Faeries. So in essence, the "Leader" of the Fae has no specified gender, and merely appears as a genderless child.
Also if people start calling Titania a "Trap", its gross and disgusting.
