I introduced this game to my daughter and my niece yesterday (ten and eleven years old). They loved it, which is good because I bought it mostly to play with them.
However, These are little girls, and they don't want to play trolls and ghouls. In fact, they want female characters (preferably pretty ones). I fear they will soon get bored of playing only the Prophetess, Sorceress and Dark Cultist. There is currently a five to one ratio of male to female characters!
This is a real shame because many of these characters could well have been female. Regardless, my intent is to request not to complain. I see the Gypsy is coming in the Dungeon, which is good but not enough I fear. The little girls need variety to retain their interest too! Please please throw them a bone - for daddies and daughters everywhere.
PS - loving fourth edition revised, keep up the great work!
Edit - there also should be a shoe store somewhere in the Dungeon, and an heroic talking dog available as a follower. Just kidding (but serious about more female characters).

) seem to be either very attractive (who is that hottie by the fountain of craft?) or old and hideous (the hag - so ugly that your followers have to leave you!). The roles they occupy is also fairly archaic: why are there no female bandits? Why are there next to no female fighters?
