The funniest way to play the entire Baldur's Gate trilogy, imo, is to play a cleric of Lathander for the originals and then play another cleric of Lathander as the Dark Urge.
Lathander, the boisterous and optimistic god of sunshine and renewal cheers on his little murder-spawn as they strive to do better and be reborn free of their father, while Bhaal screams at the Morninglord in the background to stop ruining his tools kids!
For bonus points, you can then piss off both gods by having both Charname and Durge romance vampires. I can only assume that at this point Lathander stops answering their calls, and the cleric spells are now coming from Cyric, wearing a blonde wig.

PSA for Baldur's Gate 3 fic writers: the Ao3 character tag "Charname" is not just another way of saying the BG3 main character. That is specifically Gorion's Ward, the Bhaalspawn protagonist of BG1 and 2, called that because it's how they were referenced in the dialogue etc files that we read and modders used. <CHARNAME>. As a code thing, so the game knew to replace it with the character name the player had chosen for them.
From there, it just wound up being what everyone called them in general when discussing the game, because the best other in-game appellation would've been something like... the Child of Bhaal probably, which is just wildly unspecific.
Please try not use the tag for anyone else so as to cut down on the confusion! "Charname" is to BG1 and BG2 what "Tav" is to BG3 for tagging purposes.

Drew up my Baldur's Gate party - Gerhard's the bhaalspawn with the mullet, and Viconia and Imoen are the devil and the angel on his shoulders.
They're currently crawling their way through Throne of Bhaal on my SCS run lol
