From Campo Santo's Quarterly Review:

“‘Chances are,’ Brooks suggested, ‘it came from someone asking the question “When I cast Project Image, and an illusionary copy is made of me, what gender is it?” and in an effort to get back to work, they decided to add ILLUSIONARY to the list of genders. Then in this imaginary scenario someone asked “What gender is a Skeleton? If it’s animated bones of the dead, could it be made up of multiple people’s bones, [and] then what gender would it be?” I’m guessing about now a producer would have dropped by [and] said “Just add it to the list and get back to work.”’ … As for the EXTRA genders, Brooks says they’re kind of like extras in a movie. ‘If you have a big scene with a battle going on with many creatures potentially dying, [those creatures] could be assigned to EXTRA3, and then in scripting you could see when 30 EXTRA3 creatures have died.’ So, in the Baldur’s Gate pocket of the D&D world, if you are so unimportant in the grand design that your highest purpose is to be one of 30 anonymous villagers wiped off the map by a fireball, then that is your gender.”

For the record, the 19 genders are:

• 1 MALE
• 2 FEMALE
• 3 OTHER
• 4 NIETHER (sic)
• 5 BOTH
• 6 SUMMONED
• 7 ILLUSIONARY
• 8 EXTRA
• 9 SUMMONED_DEMON
• 10 EXTRA2
• 11 EXTRA3
• 12 EXTRA4
• 13 EXTRA5
• 14 EXTRA6
• 15 EXTRA7
• 16 EXTRA8
• 17 EXTRA9
• 18 EXTRA10
• 66 IMPRISONED_SUMMONED

... I'm SUMMONED_DEMON.
