Was looking for a leatherworking trainer in Valdrakken

I was flying around looking for a leatherworking trainer, like a headless chicken, anyway it later dawned on me that I’d better go visit one of the nomads (eg the Maruukai).

While circling over I saw a ?, so I went straight for it, I had a couple of Titan Relics on me, but I missed the building (flying like a supersonic missile) and accidentally entered the building across.

And there I came upon the dialogue between the two Scalecommenders. What really annoyed me instantly was that one of them was wearing almost precisely my gear “Crimson Dracthyr Battlegear”, which I thought was very lazy of Blizzard.

But paying attention to the dialogue, it is between two men, one of which is a gay man (dragon visage), and who goes as far as to make a pass on the other man, “I like what I see in myself and in you”.

So I was wondering this is Blizzard inserting the token gay man, ticking yet another box, and trying to avoid “bad press”?

I was also wondering, is there any similar dialogue anywhere in DF, between a man and a woman, where one makes a pass?

PS: would you believe it, there is no leatherworking trainer in Marukai. I am actually staring at drying pelts, but no trainer…

PPS: It seems the minimap ONLY shows you the trainers of your current professions, so if you want to learn a new profession, you’d need to look it up…

Why does it matter?

Why does it matter to you if there is a gay character in the game and why is it when such a character is added to a game, its always gets a “to tick a box” comment from small minded persons such as yourself.

Wrong. You will find that is Cindrethresh who is a female Dracthyr, that is in love with another female Dracthyr (Viridia), and has a male visage. Maybe flirted with Azurathel, so maybe bi. There probably is some straight stuff but honestly I don’t care because any and all relationship stuff just makes me gag so I don’t pay much attention to them. Anyway it’s a display of non-binary/trans as well, -so- horrifying! (Sarcasm)

The profession trainers are all near the crafting order …“house”. Just ask a guard if you get lost.
