Title says it all.

Is this even doable?

The female anatomy overall is pretty bad. The human/elf girls' arms are soooo skinny.

I honestly have a problem with the human females lower back..It just goes down the back in a straight line at an angle and then suddenly there's a butt. The anatomy on the dwarven females actually kinda makes sense to me until you put some gauntlets on...Needs some work with that o.O; But I wouldn't mind seeing a mod that shortens the arms and fixes the odd triple jointed arm problem. XD

What annoys me is the way the female model carries it's shoulders and arms. They're all... wierd. Sprawled out, like they're wading through a deep puddle or something.

It's kinda obvious that the main character is meant to be a male. Though it's a sad fact to be sure.

Shorten the arms by 25%

I noticed this same issue back in Mass Effect, where female Shepard walked (and stood idle) in a very "manly" way, while her female companions did not.
 
My brother stood over me as a played a session with my female dwarf character and asked, "Man, what the hell is wrong with her arms??"

Male, and human, indeed!

Running a female elven rogue through the game there are plenty of areas where the conversations address me as a male and a few places where it assumes I'm human as well. Maybe I should put more blush on the character or something.

Such is the way of most games. It's much easier and cheaper to create one 'skeleton' and then build on that for everything. Sometimes it's one skeleton for multiple races and just stretched/shrunk for taller/shorter races, sometimes there are more modifications than that... but being female myself it's so very easy to see when my character isn't built on the female form. You can typically see this the easiest in the shoulders (far too wide) and the hands (too big) and the hips (either shape or animation when moving). So it's easy to see it in this game. I don't like it, but I'm a gamer so I'm used to it.



Would be wonderful, though, if it were possible to mod a more feminine shape out of what's available. And shorten the poor dwarf girl's arms. They're so cute and I want to play one, but the arms are so very out of whack.



@Dmuse: I got irritated by being called 'Sir' a lot, until I read something (in the Codex perhaps?) where I saw that it was 'Ser'. 'Ser' has been used in various settings as a genderless honorific. I think it's just taking the easy way out and making ladies get used to being called by a male honorific. I would have preferred a made-up honorific, myself, that fit into the world they created. If they could come up with such titles as Bann and Teyrn and Arl, why not create a new honorific, too? Ah well.

That's something else I noticed - dwarf female shape and form is, in general, really bizarre. They look sort of like a big house on really tall, skinny stilts. 

I can't wait for the inevitable 'Better Bodies'-type mod.

That may explain the "Ser" but not the 'him', 'himself', 'he' and 'his'... Try making a female human mage and run through that origin. It's obviously situated for a male character.

Bioware: no testing at all on this -- or were you expecting to have a seperate origin for females and had to drop that?

I started a dwarven F!Aeducan but her arms are bothering me... They are too looong ><
