You don't use "it" when it comes to intersex/gender ambiguous people because they are PEOPLE, not things. Things are "it"s. Intersex/genderqueer/non-binary folks will usually use single-person "they" in English, but some prefer "zey" or however it's spelled (I and most trans people I know find the z's to be kind of ridiculous so I'm not as savvy on that one). So, as we can't know how Gwyndolin self-identifies, we can either go with the game's identification of Gwyndolin as male, or treat Gwyndolin as an inbetweener and say "they". I'm not touching the edit button because I would prefer to leave that up to those in charge of the wiki.

Pronouns are important, even with fictional characters--because how we treat them could very easily reflect how we would treat similar real-life people.
