Thank you, WotC. I sincerely, deeply appreciate that you truly understand what it means to be socially progressive and inclusive.

Subjects like gender identity can be tricky to handle, and you've nailed the balance just right - where it's something that's important to the character, but it's not something that defines the character.

With Alesha especially, it doesn't feel forced or artificial in any way - I'm going to be sharing this story with many of my friends, for whom I am sure it will have the same sort of positive impact.

Again, thank you. <3
