Mars Symbol?

So I was messing around making some characters that had been in my head for awhile. And for some reason they have every planet's symbol except for Mars. O.o Which is weird, because that's the symbol I needed. Is there a reason Mars Symbol just didn't make the cut? XD

You're on a female character. Males and Huge don't have access to the Venus symbol.


Edit: No, you're not the only person to question that logic. It would just seem that NcSoft doesn't want to deal with the headache certain folks might give them over it.

There are lots of starbursts and planet symbols. You might see if one of those will suffice.

And this is why I think all parts should be unisex.

[/ QUOTE ]That would be nice. ^_^

Since you can now have toons that can be both genders thanks to the science booster I don't think that's even an issue anymore. At this point I think it's just an oversight.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Can already emulate the RHPS with the Horns overlay on a Bare Chest Smooth guy.

You've got to be kidding!

The Mars and Venus chest symbols are gender-exclusive!!???!!

This isnt a case of needing to make new geometry, but of a deliberate decision by someone. Why?

I know these symbols also stand in for male and female, but its not like its going to open up the floodgates for strange gender-bending characters like "Man-Woman" or "Female-Man" if they did allow them.
And it blocks an option for characters like female Martians and male Venusians.

Go figure...

Why not? Someone already did a damned good RHPS over in the SS&FA section, and I think someone has even done Dr. Girlfriend...

And considering if you've bought the science booster, you can now change your gender at will... seems even more odd.

Furthermore, in the hard-boiled world of Paragon City, only men ever smoke, and only women are allowed to keep pets around because men would just kill them with cigarette smoke.

I don't think everything needs to be made unisex, I can even see the logic behind the mars/venus thing, but the cigarettes and pets will never stop bothering me.

And the tiaras dammit!

Well, it's actually a cigar.

Because cigars are the classic symbol of being distinguished.

Distinguished by the foul odor following you around.

Which is ironic, I smoke cigarettes and I hate the way 99% of cigars smell. And many people feel the opposite. And many others hate them both.

Malses should at least get parrots for their shoulder to go with all the pirate options.

I do agree that it's silly that only females can have shoulder pets, and only males and huges can smoke.

Heh, although I did just get an interesting idea for a gender switching character.

A girl with a shoulder kitty that is actually a werecat and has a male or huge costume option for it's shifted form. (The shoulder kitty would actually be the character in this case)

Cool! I really like that idea.

Much cooler than my idea.
I'm going to make a girl who can turn into a boy, and her cat is a were-cigar!
