The irony is not lost on me that they say "We could use a set of strong arms" and this is the Sorcerer Durge, which normally starts with a strength of 8
sadly, if you play as any character that is not durge, you can find his corpse somewhere in the temple of bhall area. orin just kills durge before the game starts if you don't play as him
@@laglappen3012 yeah it's a wasted opportunity in my opinion, like I can see a scenario where as you grow your illiquid powers you can delve into durges fractured mind an see all he has done as a sort of dream scape type deal and depending on how you have treated him it'll help in freeing him of bhaal
It would be really interesting if durge was an npc you coud invite. Imagine trying to convince him down the good path or indulge him in the darkness. Shit might be hype
I'd go with calling him Keel, because it sounds like "kill" even though it's leek spelled backwards, & is a pun for kale, It just sounded very fitting because of what the durge does a lot of, unaliving! XD
If only Durge were a full character in game, like if you play as Tav or another origin, they appear as the default dragonborn sorcerer. I feel like it'd be the type of character that could pull off being comedically / ironically edgy, as well as lovably creepy in a classic Beetlejuice or Adams family kind of way. Maybe something like a darker Jack Skellington vibe?
Also, let em be good OR bad, resisting their urges or giving into them depending on your character's own overall standing. Not to mention. Can say if you're trying to make em good but you also treat em poorly they'll just give in anyways.
He is.... as a corpse. So, like incase ya didn't know. BG3's canonical prequel to the start of gameplay, is that the "Create-a-characters" Tav and Durge are reliant on the player to survive. Ergo, if you don't play as them, they're dead. Durge, is of course killed by Orin, while Tav is actually killed by Durge. Essentially saying, Tav and Durge are strictly a fanon interaction :D
@@Prince_Smugarina I get that. I know that they do technically exist independent of the player, and are also just dead if not chosen. But I also like to hypothesize about how they might be characterized if they weren't.
@@timelordacaelus5959 I fear, he'd be more than a little creepy, but also insanely impossible to properly characterize, hence his position as a CAC. As an amnesiac he's a blank slate. But we learn he's the most calculating and cunning individual in the Forgotten Realms. I mean, the entire plot of the game that is to say the BBEG's plot was all concocted by HIM. In other words. Any thought you have is as good as anyone elses. Mine is that, amnesiac or not, he'd be far more in the know than Gale, and even but heads.... if there is something more than a hand available. He'd also prove frighteningly capable at dealing critical hits(ergo, attacking the weakest parts of his enemies) due to his background as what essentially entails him to be the Forgotten Realms "Jack the Ripper" Which is why, instead of the fanon Durge name I'd call him Jack >:3
I like that durge has manners and speaks like he just came from shakespear really fits what we hear from his introduction also showing he was clearly a well mannered person before his urges toke over
Tav: "What sort of name is 'Durge', out of curiousity?" Durge: "You know, the funeral music." Tav: "That's spelled with an 'i', not a 'u'." Durge: "Well, that's how I spell my name." Wyll: "Checks out."
This is so cool! I like that Durge isn't a cackling lunatic. He's a guy who currently has a bad headache and amnesia. How much that changes, we'll see.
He’s only a cackling lunatic in memes. He is mostly portrayed as In Control Until He’s Not in the game. Even Gortash remarks on how sane he is compared to Orrin.
@@damobeck1Yeah, I think he is similar to Sarevok in that regard. They are both calculating, wanting the most amount of murder unlike Orin who goes for beauty and art. Orin is not actually well liked by Bhaal because of this.
I'm glad you didn't portray Durge as a crazy killer or a nervous stoic. I read your comics and your Durge seems funny and adorable despite being a tragic character. Durge would probably be the fun and lovable scary character who sometimes doesn't realize he's making people uncomfortable with his comments about murder.
A lot of memes portray him as a borderline schizophrenic with a thirst for blood, but in game all of his voice lines talk about headaches and being tired. Is he cold and calculating? Yes. But I bet if you were to actually sit down and talk with him he’d sound pretty done with everything, and tired like you wouldn’t believe. If only…
@@bennet2347isn’t it really his dialogue he can say while walking around that’s kinda messed up while every other thing is just him losing control cause of him being a child of bhal
I love how the name for the dark urge is shortened to Durge, because A "durge" is also what they call a musical piece that is composed to be a song of grief or lamentation, often performed as an ode to the dead.
One thing I thought was kinda interesting is in the Durge's "lore" if you play them it mentions killing an adventurer in Baldur's Gate, named Tav lol And ofc as most know if you play Tav then you find Durge's dead body in the sanctum of Bhaal. So Larian went out of their way to actually explain how they can't exist in the same playthrough, BUT I'd still love some like, "secret route" where Tav and Durge exist together, like if you play one of the non-Baldurian Tav options like Lolthsworn or Githyanki, then obviously they wouldn't have been in Baldur's Gate for Durge to kill as getting there in game is their first time in the city, and then you get to try and uncover Durge's secrets as he himself would learn them, would be interesting to get a narration of all those events from the outside looking in.
I agree tho I personally would love to see the blood in baldurs gate tav try and unravel the unsolved murders, meanwhile in the company of the guiltiest man in all of faerun
Multiplayer kinda let's 'em meet, though at that point Tav just becomes a label for "random dude/gal with tadpole" I've got more than 800 hours into this game, about 95% of that time was spent in Multiplayer :')
,,I'm..." He spoke out of instinct, out of habit, out of his manners mother taught him. But he spoke out of turn. Too late he realized the harsh truth. He doesn't know who he is. Honestly a stellar performance Silver. I'm looking forward to more. Don't know if you once again did all the little animations within the comic (as I missed the stream) But you've done a great job. Of course all the other voice actors and artists have my appreciation. Just had to express it to Silver first. No hard feelings.
I think the hesitation after "I'm" is because he realized his "name" is "The Dark Urge." Not exactly something most would call reassuring to hear from one they just met.
@@itsthegr8matt "Durge" is the shortened form of "Dark Urge". The character you are automatically given when selecting the shaded-out player-made character is a white dragonborn sorcerer named "The Dark Urge", which players shortened to "Durge" for simplicity. Also the name is not an innuendo. Durge has, to put it free of spoilers, very very bad anger issues.
This either turns into a heartwarming story about Durge getting better and breaking free from Bhaal's influence, or it becomes a tragedy where one will kill the other by the end. And not knowing which one it will be makes me anxious. In the good way.
Durge as an NPC party member could’ve been really interesting. I always feel hesitant when I think about playing as him, but I’d probably invite him to camp if I had the choice.
... This makes me want the Durge as a companion in a tav story. As much as it was meant to be a playable origin story, this might even make the party dynamic--which is already diverse--even more interesting. Conflict with Gale due to different magical diciplines--Wizard/sorcerer. A respect for Lae'zel and her readiness to stab and kill what gets in her way. A sort of unease toward Karlach, being the barbarian and strongest of the party, while also having the loveability of a golden retriever--something I think the Durge would be very conflicted about. Drisrespecting Wyll and his, at first, idealistic view on the world. Not to mention the dynamics between the other characters. I see a LOT of potential here.
All animations and comics I have seen so far were goofy. Your comic is a nice difference. I love the characters' voice (especially Tav's and Durge's). I would love to see more in the future. Take care. You made an amazing job
This would be cool if we ever got a co-op BG seeing two player characters and seeing what choices the other makes and seeing both " guardians" helping us to defeat a evil threat and plus the combination of origins traits bounce off or mix well together and the fact of endings oh boy this is too much
Oooo this would be amazing, I'd love to see the dude change over time. Start out slightly nervous cause my tieflings always notice more than they let on. And he'd be an extremely strong character given his relevance to the plot line.
I love the implication that Druge hearing a nickname, and rapidly pulling Dark Urge > Durge conversion cause hes aware thats a messed up name. Stunning work and voice acting. I really want a full story now!
TBH I kind of wish if Durge could be a companion option too, especially if Tav n Durge would have a connection bc tried to kill Tav before they just not remembering that at first just much later.
I don’t know if it was intentional but the double meaning of Durge being the shortened form of Dark Urge and sounding like a play on dirge like at funerals is funny.
Would be an interesting new feature for a dlc expansion, having to manage Durge in your Tav party and make sure he doesn’t end up killing all your party (you included). You’d either have a game over if he ends up Bhaal’ing y’all or you’d switch from playing a Tav playtrough to a Durge one with no more party members but with all their items at your camp 😎
I was immeasurably disappointed when I first got the game and discovered Durge wasn't recruitable. My dragonborn Paladin wanted her disaster project boyfriend, damn it!
If I were to add two companions to BG3, I would add Alfira who's the most cannon bard in the game, and Dark Urge since his story line is a kinda continuation of the Tradition of Baldur's Gate -series. (I'm not a part of larian but was part of the official early access period active forum user).
This reminds me of a playthrough I did with a friend I was a Drow Durge Barbarian multicasting into Monk, and my friend was planning on being EXCLUSIVELY a Necromancer Wizard We were gonna go for the unique Dark Urge ending and we joked that my friends character was unsure about making sword coast descend into murder chaos, so my character told him "Ok, if we do this, imagine all the dead bodies you can experiment on." And then his character was instantly fine with it
Tav and Durge really would go: Tav: Hey... isn't that the murderer I was investigating! Durge: (Not remembering that he attacked Tav and left them for dead in a drain) ...huh? For those that don't know: Before the release of the game and as a teaser for The Dark Urge, Larian had a community murder mystery to uncover who is behind the chain of ritual murders in Baldur's Gate. In it we play as Tav hired as an adventurer to investigate and due to poor decisions brought by having a community vote lol we fall for an obvious trap and get attacked by Durge while shockingly close to uncovering it. There's no clear answer to if Tav dies there or not which leaves it open to depend on who you pick. Play as Tav and you survived the attack, Durge doesn't survive being betrayed, and you're in the city when it's attacked hence being on the ship at the start. Play as Durge and Tav dies there and you survive later. Play multiplayer and (Tav technically never got a clear view but did see them) either Tav does suspect but is waiting for clarification on the amnesia, or doesn't know and just suspects it.
I wish they had made him a complete companion too. The interactions between him and the rest of the group with you would be very interesting. Really, if you see his introduction, he doesn't seem like someone bad, but rather someone tormented by inner evil that he can't control.
The Dark urge thought "Why does she have the same name as me ? I am supposed to be Tav ! Or am I ? Or am I just the dark urge... dark urge...darkurge...durge...DURGE !!!"
I love the fact that it’s canon that if you play as Tav, Orin kills Dark Urge and you can find their body in the temple, and if you play as Durge, you killed Tav prior to the game
Hey! This was so awesome! Recently finished my first Baulder’s Gate 3 play through, and I have finally freed myself to enjoy all the fandom stuff. I see there’s a part 2, (I think, I didn’t look too closely), and I’ll be checking out that soon.
idk if the browser game before was canon, I wish this fan comic is canon tbh, because from what I understand, Tav was just another victim of Durge when Sceleritas "hired" Tav as a detective regarding the murders in Baldur's Gate.

It was an honor to work with you! All the VAs did so well here 🥺💜
Glad to see you back in action!!
I wish now that we had the Option to recruit Durge as Sorcerer on an Tav Playthrough instead of him just ending up dead in the Temple of Bhaal
I mean mod can do that
The irony is not lost on me that they say "We could use a set of strong arms" and this is the Sorcerer Durge, which normally starts with a strength of 8
But look at him, he looks like he could crush skulls with his bare hands(and knowing him he probally did that)
Do not be fooled. I played a Durge sorcerer but respecced to a paladin but kept the robe anyways because it looks cool XD
Sorcerer surge still stabs alfira over and over and over lol
@@inkheart4866 That robe does look sick
Durge: "it sounds to me that this spellcasters should workout more"
i would PAY to have companion dark urge

Would give me a reason to play as Tav.
Then pay with your blood !
maybe once we got modding tools this could be a possibility
If Durge was a companion, he'd probably outshine most of the others with his story line. But, he would be incredibly cool to have.
aaaand kill a few crewmembers. or try it unknowingly... 🙃
if he doesn't try to kill someone unknowingly...
@Spartan135 A risk most'd be willing to make, honestly.
The downside being your other companions mysteriously get murdered every other night
The main difference between the two is that Tav lets the intrusive thoughts win while Durge desperately fights his
It would be really interesting if durge was an npc you coud invite. Imagine trying to convince him down the good path or indulge him in the darkness. Shit might be hype
I mean, that is kind of what multiplayer is... if by "indulge him in the darkness", you mean "urge them to pick the most insane choices for the evulz"
Would honestly be interested in a DLC or something like that to add the option. We could use some race variety in camp.
@@parleyeon7951for the evulz or for the lolz? If it’s multiplayer it’s probably the latter lol
Sadly I believe as a regular tab he’s killed in the Baal temple
Wait for when Larian releases the mod tools, I am sure a modder would love to make that.
“I’m…”
(He realizes that ‘THE DARK URGE’ is not a name people have, and will cast heavy suspicion onto his activities)
“You can call me… ‘Durge’”
Oh, please... like "Shadowheart is any better.
I'd go with calling him Keel, because it sounds like "kill" even though it's leek spelled backwards, & is a pun for kale, It just sounded very fitting because of what the durge does a lot of, unaliving! XD
Tav: "Oh... like the funeral music! Your family must have been real cheerful people!"
Durge: "Uh... yeah."
@@rpghorrorstoriesClever
Apparently people have also called him “Gary” due to some of the narrator’s bloopers.
Because of that, I personally named mine Garion.

I wish it was possible to recruit Durge. Amazing work btw, love the voice acting and the drawing too :D keep up the good work!
Oh no. This is going to break me, isn't it?
Still kinda wish default Durge was a companion in Tav playthrough. I think itd be interesting.
I wish they had made him a complete companion too. The interactions between him and the rest of the group with you would be very interesting. Really, if you see his introduction, he doesn't seem like someone bad, but rather someone tormented by inner evil that he can't control.
this looks great and i have a feeling it could grow greater still with dedication so here's hoping for more like this
Really wish default durge was a companion now.
It would've been very interesting to see how the darke urge would've been as a companion.
Great work!
If durge was an npc HOW FAST I WOULD ROMANCE HIM MOVE OVER ASTARION IMMA GONNA GET MY DRAGON MAN
Nice use of the BGM for this read
I just randomly stumbled on this video and I like it can’t wait what comes
Oh yeah, DEFINITELY looking forward to more!
THE ORIGIN COMPANION WE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!
Their copulation is inevitable
The Dark urge thought "Why does she have the same name as me ? I am supposed to be Tav ! Or am I ? Or am I just the dark urge... dark urge...darkurge...durge...DURGE !!!"
I love the fact that it’s canon that if you play as Tav, Orin kills Dark Urge and you can find their body in the temple, and if you play as Durge, you killed Tav prior to the game
5 minutes later "THIS BRANCH NEEDS PRUNING!"
This is so cool! I've loved these comics!
Hey! This was so awesome! Recently finished my first Baulder’s Gate 3 play through, and I have finally freed myself to enjoy all the fandom stuff. I see there’s a part 2, (I think, I didn’t look too closely), and I’ll be checking out that soon.
This is actually real fucking good hahaha! Damn, now I wish this was possible in game!
Very neat concept, very fun animation, very impressive voice acting
Instant Sub. I love Durge so damn much.
I like the idea that unless Tav being the heart party member.
So, uh, more. Please? This is rad and i’d love to see how it progresses.
idk if the browser game before was canon,
I wish this fan comic is canon tbh, because from what I understand, Tav was just another victim of Durge when Sceleritas "hired" Tav as a detective regarding the murders in Baldur's Gate.
Great stuff, guys! This was a joy to watch!
Subscribed and waiting for more. Have fun!
It's nice to see you back with a comic dub, great work!
I'm looking forward to the continuation I really liked it
