Hard to say why maker of WT mod removed the option for those, since so far there's no bad consequences for them. Only different story directions.

It's not that the mod default removes choices ... there's "path" settings: one is "good guy" one is "bad guy" ... I don't know if that was based on what the code says or what the modder decided for simplicity, but choices are only removed if you turn on one or the other. If you leave them both off, all choices are available.

He is male, and his default name is Saber.Is the white tiger a female or male?
Or should I just name it Pat?

For me, it's not whether the act is a good idea or a bad idea, it's just that there seemed to be a theme as to what TYPE of acts counted one way, and what counted the other way, and that act seems to go against that trend (this is all about behind-the-curtain stuff of course).

Hopefully its a female troll and we can defeat and subdue her and then fuck her in the forest and have some troll babies .
You already saw what mama troll looked like, so if that floats your boat, go for it

This is a fantasy world with D&D-style creatures (pre-upcoming version). That means TROPES of some creatures being naturally evil or aggressive to the point of requiring immediate action (like goblins, trolls, knolls, demons, etc.) are going to be part of the story. It also leaves open the possibility of having a story element that goes against the tropes, the surprisingly-peaceful ogre, the demon deserter that wants to play for your team (how can you trust them? How do they eventually prove themselves. Do they turn on you?), etc.
Also, they would have just adopted a bear cub and raised it. There's no drama there.
Anyway, if that type of thing disturbs you, how did you get passed the creature making undead (forgot it's name) to get to the troll?

A bear would have defeated the point of the choice entirely. It is meant to be a difficult choice morally.
Like Elhemeer rightly pointed out, in fantasy there is such things as an evil race.
Troll are such a race. Now, will the young one defy the expectations? Well, the readers will see, if they gave it the occasion. He could become an ally. He could become a threat.
Its a classic DnDesque moral dilemna.
Also it's important to note, while some races are more bent on evil or good, that just mean the culture in general. Which means that there will be exceptions like lawful good Orcs or Chaotic Evil elves.

Nope, some race are evil biologically. Plagueswarm, for example. Or Red Dragons.
Some where twisted by magic and cannot go against their evil impulses.

I meant in D&D, there's some examples also like demon, or was it devil, that is no longer evil, because they fell in love with planar from one of the good planes. Even though those creatures are originally manifestation of the evil planes they are from. Though those kinds of examples are extremely rare, considering evil, chaos etc... alignments are actually natural forces in the setting, but not completely impossible. And i'm not even talking about latest editions, but the good old AD&D 2e. Planescape Torment had also succubus character that was of neutral alignment, rather than evil alignment they normally are.
