They aren't really "characters" so much as they are forms of another character. Even with ones that have personalities like Rath, it's still just the person who turned into them but as an Appoplexian. The gender of that Rath is dependent upon whoever becomes them. Ben, male Rath; Gwen, female Rath; etc.

The argument of them being characters works for, say, Alien X perhaps, given Bellicus and Serena, or arguably Ghostfreak, if you take into account Zs'Skayr saying Ectonurite consciousness exists in its DNA. Pretty much anyone else is just a form of whoever they become, gender included (sans Big Chill).
