For the record, Voidwalkers are female. Or at the very least, mine is.

I discovered this a few days ago when I was helping my girlfriend with some quests in the Wetlands. Some of you may remember the haunted ship just up the coast from Menethil Harbor. The ghosts there will curse you, turning you into an undead. Like with most model alterations, it maintains your gender. My character stayed male. My girlfriend's character stayed female.... and so did my Voidwalker every time it picked up the curse.

Granted, it could just have been mine that was female, but since the other demons seem to have singular gender possibilities (all Succubi are female, all Felguards are male, etc.) I'm assuming the same applies to the voidwalkers. Whether or not they're all the same, it's an interesting thought about something that we tend to take for granted.

I like this, though that voice is certainly off-putting for a female. Maybe a blueberry lozenge is called for.

As I recall, the "default" gender for mobs is female if their code does not specifically state them as male - hunter pets also turn female using the "ghost check", as I've heard it called.
