The Dark Urge

[Mr Jt (Gog is king)]

Man the dark urge path is way more intriguing than playing a totally custom character. It’s still your own avatar but with a bit more interesting spin on it.
My question

Did you picked the dark urge background?
Is there a good outcome?

Some scenarios cant be controlled but i try the most to be a good guy and help others. Sadly a random Guy on the internet spoiled it to me why you do this things but i don’t know if it’s true. Makes kinda sense though. You are a baal spawn

The only advice I was given, I avoided basically all other information about this game, was to go with The Dark Urge origin. I'm not super far in, but so far there are multiple things that make me think going with a different origin could change some things that happen. I haven't given into the dark urges...yet.

Yep, went with Dark Urge. It's like playing Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 again. Probably will have the same ending choice too.

i wanted to play the most wicked and cruel character possible, was not disapointed.

I tried to make a Dwarven life cleric as the Dark Urge to enjoy the contrast between fighting the urge while maintaining the ideals of a life cleric. I must of hit the wrong button as I ended up as the Dragonborn sorcerer that seems to be the default character, the voice it ended up with was grating so I started over as a custom character.

I picked it too, but still in act 1 and I don't get much of a doom vibe. It seems that my avatar is tied to an item that I thought belongs to a companion. And several groups want to lay their hands upon it.
Edit: I went with high elf warlock as my DA, my favorite class from Solasta.

But the game looks vast. Maybe not Kingmaker-vast, but I am still in act 1 and haven't explored the whole wilderness or done all the quests I came across. I have a hint where Zhentarim are hidden (speak with dead gives sometimes special information), and not found the lair. I am sure I missed stuff in the grove. There are places I cannot explore (like the small openings), but that might be my lack of shapeshifting or familiars. By turning the map around, sharp eyes, and using exceptional movement you can get to hidden places.
I avoided all info about the game myself, so I can enjoy it fully, and thus far it does not disappoint.

There is defiently a way to be good besides of the moments you don’t have control over yourself. Really curious if you can get rid of your evil form or if you can use your evil form for good
