It should be noted that in most RPG's a player can choose the sex during character creation.Due to the more generic nature of a character in an MMORPG (such as "World of Warcraft" or The "Legend of Mir" series of games) and their inherent inability to affect the plot of the game a character could not be considered a protagonist.
