Kings, Sorcerers and Warriors are indeed men...but then females could take their places. One could club their genders as one.For Kings there are Queens. A regal.For Sorcerers there are Sorceress'. An arcane.For Warriors there are ...women warriors? Amazons? A defender.Think about this - Witches are female. We have Warlocks, but everytime it is mentioned, there is an explanation - Warlock, ie - male witch. And it doesn't go vice versa.Haven't you heard - "He's a witch !" "What..how ?" "I mean a Warlock?" "What's that ? " "A male witch" "Oh !"Have you ever heard - "She's a warlock !" "What..how ?" "I mean a Witch?" "What's that ? " "A female warlock" "Oh !" Maybe you shoudn't discriminate againts the females of the nazgul, Elrian. I did that last week against female Orcs and now I keep sensing rabid feminist orcs everywhere I go. Everywhere.Jokes apart - sprites, dryads, naiads, gorgons, etc. are mostly potrayed as females, but there has to be males of their kind too. ~Believes there should be more female characters in LOTR, why not the Nazgul~Know Peace

Hither came Carlton, the King, black haired, bronze hued, mightily thewed, sullen eyed. Sword in hand, a warrior, a destroyer, a conqueror. With gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jewelled thrones of the Earth, under his sandalled feet.
