Is Dark Urge the MC ?
I explain myself. In the EA, Tav is not really engage in the story, they are just "another person on the ship". However, DU seems to be fully customizable AND with a story linked somehow to Bhaal, like in the previous games. So, is DU the real MC of BG3 and Tav here for the coop-mod ?

There is no real MC. It's whoever you want to be and I seriously doubt that Dark Urge is linked to Bhaal himself. I assume his servant goblin is mainly behind it, if I had to guess.

No. Dark Urge is an Origin character with customizable features but a set backstory.

No, Tav and Dark Urge were both explained to have a backstory to explore. There are even a couple of dialogue options in early access where Tav reveals that they are from Baldur's gate. It seems like Tav's story is that of a more typical/traditional hero and Dark Urge may be more of the challenged/anti/dark hero.

No, Tav only say this if is not Gith and others races that implies they are not from this plane of existence.

Absolutely, this is my point. Tav is no one and it always feels lack something was lacking. DU seems to correct that.

Yes, it can be more indirect.

Will it be possible to customize Dark Urge even If not played as MC? Like you find him later somewhere and customized to your needs or its strictly starting origin?

If I understand it correctly, the Dark Urge is ONLY for the MC

I understand that too. It is the origin of my reasoning.
