What is Hemlock's gender?

Does anyone else find Hemlock's gender a bit...ambigious? I don't think that's going to be an extended joke (OOTS has the copywright on that) but how much you want to bet that Antonio or Lionel are going to guess wrong, with hiliarious results?

No, Hemlock is pretty obviously a girl.

I only found her gender ambiguous in the first comic. After that, Hemlock seemed like a girl to me.

You mean, in the SECOND comic you knew?

Now, I thought Hemlock was a girl since the first comic...

Ditto. Always seemed female to me as well.

Hemlock is female.

Now get back to doing something useful with your life.

Actually, I thought Hemlock was male the first time I saw her. Mostly because most female characters in CRPGs are dressed provacatively, even mage-types. Also, because a lot of times in Japanese stuff guys look like girls. But I was never certain. Then I recently read a list of video game cliches, one of which was that a party must have either 1 or 3 female characters, no matter how many male characters there are. I then realized that Vania and Cykla did not equal 3.

Apparently, I'm the only one who was confused. Sorry.

Edit: Also, no one seemed interested in that thread, so I abandoned it. I can catch it up, but it will take me some time. It took me hours to set it up the first time.

Now, now... There could always be a Magus-esque villain who joins the party. Don't take it too personally

I found her gender ambiguous to begin with! I even ASKED Legendary.... Not that I've gotten an answer...
