Gibraltar is gay.
Loba is bisexual.
Bloodhound is non-binary...which isn’t a sexual orientation, so we won’t include that.
Wraith hears voices of multiple versions of herself. Also not a sexual orientation.
There are 14 Legends. 2 are confirmed LGBTQA+. So...half? 🤔
@tommiecas
Why is half the cast suddenly gay? Ok I get that by pure statistics there would be one or two, but I’ve also seen that half the Legends are in same sex relationships according to some?!?

Bloodhound is an incredibly private person. They’re not in the habit of letting others into their life. One could argue losing their parents, and then Artur, might have contributed to that. But as Bloodhound begins to open up and let others in, others will interact with them.
@tommiecas

hey Tom, I hope you can answer my question, my main is Bloodhound and I have noticed that they don't have interactions with other legends like most of them, maybe next season we will have more Bloodhound interactions? Have a nice day!
