In an early scene, Rook unpacks their belongings, including a mirror given to them by returning character Varric. Upon pulling out the mirror, you choose from a menu of options with some choices that establish Rook as trans.
The Veilguard's options for playing the protagonist, Rook, as a trans character begin at the creation screen. There are no "male" or "female" body types.
I'd rather see them included than not, but it doesn't do anything to make me feel more seen as a trans person.
What The Veilguard gets right isn't just that this scene exists, but that it makes room for different trans experiences.
