V FOR VESSEL | THEORY
Kris' gender is one that has been debated for a long time. Whether its non binary or up to interpretation, people have fought for 7 years. However, I think I have the truest answer!!
- Kris' pronouns are they them. It's ignorant to say otherwise, because even toby fox has said it
- Kris doesnt show any preference towards male or female clothes, whether it be the lightner live heels or the shootout suit. They dont have any male or female proportions either (yes you know what I mean stop being immature)
- Kris is labeled in Ralsei's prophecy as "A HUMAN", while the church prophecy calls them "A CAGE..."
My theory is that Kris has no gender. They weren't birthed, but instead created by some other power to fulfill the prophecy (wing gaster??). They wouldn't have hormones or genitals or preference not for their will, but simply because they were made for the purpose of being a vessel. They dont like being a vessel, which is shown, but they fundamentally are one. Gendering Kris would be like gendering a chair. It was made to be, not to romanticize.
Not just that, but it would fit the spectrum laid out by the fun gang!
Ralsei, the strict prophecy follower
Susie, the monster who defies the prophecy as much as she can
And Kris, right in the middle, the human who wants to defy the prophecy but cant, because the prophecy is ingrained in them and will forever haunt them.
Therefore, I firmly believe that Kris' gender is not NB, or M, or F, but V for vessel, as they were created for the sole purpose of being the human cage of the prophecy.
