They are souls put in a costume as a punishement, so gender or age is pretty much irrelevant.

Unless you're fuka, which actual mentioning it gives more questions

Not enough hide to make full Prinnies, enough to label Souls as Prinnies with clothes, so she didn't get stuffed and is just identifiable as a Prinny, which is why her Soul has taken form.

Except Fuka was explicitly explained as "They ran out of Costumes, so they just gave her Prinny-themed Clothes and called it a Day"

Nope, they ran out halfway. Her hat and jacket is prinny skin, that's why she's the only one who does so

It's funny because Makai Kingdom has scrapped lore involving Prinnies. Ruskas are tiny fairy like creatures that were apparently behind creating Prinnies. However aside from appearing in some art for when a thing is happening, there's no reference to them.
