I would assume another mod might've overwritten it. Brave (M) and Brave (F) replace the original genders. Gotta double check load orders. I'm not even fully sure which numbering takes priority anymore.

Yeah, I don't know what happened, yesterday I couldn't select it but today it was there. Yesterday the default male took its place.

That's odd, I tested it just now and was able to select Brave (M) without issues at the start.

When starting a new game brave(m) is not available

tag yourself my gender is Adaptable
