In both Telltale Games as well as Minecraft we are given a character with no options to alter their looks or change their appearances to match our vision of the character and make this more of our story. This will all change in the upcoming Minecraft: Story Mode where it has recently been announced that you will have the ability to choose how your character looks.
This will work for both male and female versions of the character and their will be plenty of options to how you can choose to make your version of the stories main protagonist Jesse.
