Dark urge

[IceBorg]

i never played DnD can someone explain what dark urge is and how it works?

[Lord Adorable]

It's an original thing to this game. But from what we see here, it compels you to do evil and incredibly messed up things.

Weather you resist that or not is up to you.

It has nothing to do with DnD. Its one of the origin options. It means that your character has a special story line involving a dark urge you have for killing.

Dark Urge is the new origin character. They can be any race, class etc but have their own story which seems to be fairly brutal so far. Seems to be under an influence of someone or something which gives them a fascination with blood killing maiming... But they can also resist the influence as well. I didn't watch but a few seconds of the game play for that character due to wanting to avoid spoilers.

I'm calling it Durge.

It'sa character you create from scratch but that has unique ptions an interactions for being, in simple terms, a psychopath. Probably will tie up with the story later, and I even believe some theories that say it will actually tie up with previous baldur's gate titles. Time will tell about that, but the mechanical part seems to be it has psycho options not usually available.

so i can role play a character that has it and try to resist it or will it force me to do it?

Dark Urge simulates how we throughout our life sometimes have thoughts that pop into our heads from time to time. Thoughts that we know we shouldn't act on it but it does occasionally pop into our heads.

Could range from, 'I know this is someone else's cake but, its just right here." to 'What if I throw a firecracker into this hole in the ground.' and other darker thoughts but lets not go down that road.

Many people can resist these urges, others struggle with them. The Dark Urge just turns it up to 11 and you get extra options to do some brutal things and it may even pop up during situations where you normally wouldn't even have these dark thoughts. Like if you were petting a rabbit and suddenly you feel your hand twitch.

You freely chose to resist or embrace it.

sounds cool because i always have a problem choosing between a custom character or an origin so now i can do sorta both.
