Looking for right variables at the begining of SoD

As the Engine does not allow to provide kits according to the character gender at creation, I need to check it in the first map. For this, I use two variables:

If CHARNAME is a woman in BG2, ToB and BG2EE : 
OUTER_SPRINT GWCLDial_Condition_Woman ~OR(2)
	AreaCheck("AR0602")	// Check for BG2 start in BG2-BG2EE-EET-BGT : AR0602 Irenicus's Dungeon 1st Floor
	AreaCheck("AR4000")	// Check for TOB start in ToB-BG2EE-EET-BGT : Spirit Heads~
If CHARNAME is a woman in BG2, ToB, BG2EE, BGT and EET: 
OUTER_SPRINT GWCLDial_Condition_Woman ~OR(4)
	AreaCheck("AR0602")		// Check for BG2 start in BG2-BG2EE-EET-BGT : AR0602 Irenicus's Dungeon 1st Floor
	AreaCheck("AR4000")		// Check for TOB start in ToB-BG2EE-EET-BGT : Spirit Heads 
	AreaCheck("%Candlekeep%")	// Check for BG1 start in BG1-BG1EE (AR2600 Candlekeep (prologue), exterior), EET (BG2600) and BGT (AR0015)
	AreaCheck("BD0120")		// Check for SoD start~
If CHARNAME is a man in BG, BGEE, SoD, BGT and EET: 
OUTER_SPRINT GWCLDial_Condition_Man_BG ~IF
	Class(Myself,PALADIN_ALL)
	Gender(Myself,MALE)
	Global("GWChevaucheuse_Woman","LOCALS",0)
	Global("GWCLDIAL","GLOBAL",0)
	OR(2)
		AreaCheck("%Candlekeep%")	// Check for BG1 start : Candlekeep (prologue), exterior
		AreaCheck("BD0120")		// Check for SoD Start
	Delay(12)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		SetGlobal("GWChevaucheuse_Woman","LOCALS",2)
		SetGlobal("GWCLDIAL","GLOBAL",1)
		CreateCreatureObject("GWCLDial",Myself,0,0,0)
		ActionOverride("GWCLDial",StartDialogNoSet(Myself))
END~
The code works fine in BG2, BGT and BG2:EE. But As I don't own SoD, I would be grateful if someone could give me the right codes for SoD.

Thanks.

    BD0120 is correct, it's the starting dungeon for SoD, equivalent to ar0602 or ar4000, it's where you either start a new game or are starting after transition/import. it has flag *Dungeon* set.

    Thanks. ;)

    So my code would work fine.
    I just need to change area names with variables compatible with EET.

    The only difference in EET is Candlekeep = BG2600 (AR2600 is the BG2 area of that code= The forest where you find Coran and later the entrance to Suldanessalar)
    Other starting areas have the same code in EET, i.e. BG0120, ar0602 and ar4000.

    Good catch!
    I was just about to code my variables, changing AR to BG for BG:EE ones.

    Those kits belong to a more important project, a quest mod, and are still under construction (more than 90 % done, but the missing 10 % are the most painful to code...).
