I may have enjoyed much of my time with Monark, but how it treats Perrine was always on my mind. He is easily recognized by his French accent, which he claims to have 'cultivated (himself), to emulate the greatest of all cultures. He is one of two Agents to use a sniper rifle in the game, the VON 7. There are a few other questionable moments within Monark, but nothing sticks out as indefensible or blatant in the same way. Monark is an Agent in Modern Combat Versus and is an assassin.

It made me feel sick to read and may have ended my playthrough had I not been reviewing the game. Perrine’s character profile not only implies she is strange for being upset when deadnamed (and deadnames her in the process), but also follows up by misgendering her, suggesting she is “a boy pursuing feminine beauty.” I cannot dismiss such blatant transphobia. There's also this other NPC student who mentions being transgender rather explicitly, and while it doesn't fully erase the possibility of Perrine's profile being intented to be transphobic, it remains a nice case of representation in the game.įrom the review it’s this “Most of these are interesting details that expand upon the NPC in question, but then there’s the one that is horrifically transphobic. Contents 1 Fiend customization 1.1 Body 1.2 Face 1.3 Hairstyle 1.4 Hair Color 1. They start to migrate south in about August. In North America, they travel long distances south in the fall, and north in the spring. 4 Monarchs are known for their long annual migrations. It is the best-known butterfly in North America. It is not entirely clear if the term also applies to other daemons. The monarch butterfly ( Danaus plexippus) is an insect in the Nymphalidae family.

There's WAY worse cases of blatant transphobia in modern games anyway. Fiend Monark Wiki Fandom in: Fiends, Basics Fiend Edit Fiends in Monark are daemons that fight with the protagonist against his foes. I personally feel like reducing the whole game as being transphobic as hell when in reality there's only one minor and totally missable NPC's profile that's written messily being way too much. Their own lines are focused on being seen as cute (such as 'It's me ! Perrine ! The cutest student in the entire academy !' and 'Cheerful, chipper and cute ! That's the Perrine motto !'), and iirc one or two students mention Perrine being one of the school's idols and that they're adorable. I'm trans myself and didn't really find their profile offensive, the first impression I had was that they were supposed to be a crossdresser (who prefers to be referred as Perrine for whatever reason) and/or just a 'trap' character. I'm not really sure if Perrine was designed to be transgender to be honest.
