Baldur's Gate 3 offers a wide range of ways to play it, with seven Origin characters and a custom option that allows players to create their own character from scratch. One of the Origin characters is the Dark Urge, a mysterious character with amnesia. Left with no memory and an instinctive urge to kill, the Dark Urge's story is more brutal than any of the other options, but their story is one of the most compelling in Baldur's Gate 3.
While six of the Origin characters are party members and encountered in a normal playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3, the Dark Urge is dead if not selected as the player character and is not encountered while alive, leaving them a complete mystery.
