#Durge: Try again.

[y-rhywbeth2]

Durge: "Why are you at rest? Start cleaning the camp!" Sceleritas Fel: "Aaah! Master! I'm sorry, I'm ever-so sorry to forget my other duties! What a wretch I am! I'm not even worthy of being your scullery maid." [startled, realises he has done poorly] Durge: "Wash the dishes!" Sceleritas Fel: "At once. I will shatter some glasses and sprinkle the fragments in the beds of your other followers. Keep their dreams bloody."

Truly the world's most helpful butler. I would love to know how he interprets the other household chores.

#Imagine having a butler and having to clean up after them... #This is half the reason why I gave Vel a house in the upper city; imagining how Sceleritas would “tend to the estate” is hilarious #He does not understand subtlety or why we can't hang corpses around the front door to improve the décor #I wonder if anybody tried to teach him otherwise? #Durge: Try again. #Sceleritas: I will drown them in the soapy water! #Durge: ...On the other hand I'll do it myself. #Being Durge is suffering #Doomed to wash the dishes forever #sceleritas fel #durge #babbling #edgelord hours

I want to run a durge cleric because it would be equal parts touching and funny, imagine waking up with cleric powers and knowing you at one point worshipped a god and you have to in the moment try to figure out which one it is and hope you pick right

AND THEN you very obviously do not pick right but the god you do pick takes you in anyway!!! Maybe it’s mercy or maybe all the gods LOVE fucking with bhaal and this is the best opening they’ve had in YEARS

Like a drow durge cleric of eilistraee, goddess of freedom and expression, would go SO HARD or any durge cleric of tyr trying to atone for sins long forgotten, they take durge in out of divine mercy and hope

Or a durge that picks another evil god like talos or umberlee because they know at their core they were made for destruction, they take durge in and immediately break down bhaal’s door and say “remember your kid????? I’m their dad now fuck you”

#ive been wanting to try tempest cleric so this might be the way in #evil stepdad talos enters the chat #anyway #wont even THINK about if the dead 3 were option for cleric gods #durge cleric of bane?????? #gortash’s wet dream #durgeposting again #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #the dark urge #I edited a grammar error

So I deliberately failed the wisdom save just to see what happened and... ouch. I'd heard there was an option to beg the party to put you down like a rabid dog (and get a unique bad ending by successfully getting them to do it) and I wanted to see that, but it didn't show up. Which is very sad, but this almost makes up for it.

That "No one will ever love you now, might as well take pleasure in being feared" thing... Augh. Again, I find myself wondering if this sort of thing has happened to Durge before; that "It is better to be feared than loved (especially if love is likely to end in murder)" thought process is the sort of conclusion I can see them coming to pre-amnesia. "No one will ever love you now" is also not an unreasonable conclusion to come to, since as you may be able to guess from that Shield reaction popup the party does in fact immediately try to put Durge down like a rabid dog—their words—if you don't convince them you had nothing to do with it. I said I didn't get the option to beg them to put me down like a rabid dog, not that there was no putting down being attempted.

#bg3 #durge #if i remember i might go back fail the save again and try to beat the party. see what happens after #(only up to the slayer cutscene to be clear) #(it might be interesting to see how much the rest of the game changes continuing along that path but i'm not doing it with kyvir) #also one of the dialogue options when the party confronts you is just. laughing. which i love #i choose to believe it's hysterical laughter

Prompted from your Asto Gortash Tav response!

I feel like after killing Gortash, Astarion would have endless fun teasing (durge) Tav with the gauntlet of the tyrant. Is this the kind of depraved thing Tav got up to before him? slightly jealousy/spite driven but still a lot of fun

He holds up his arm before her face, flexing his long, pale fingers in rhythmic sequence. The gaudy, arabesque golden gauntlet that adorns his hand spirals and swirls in a cryptic, pretentious design that goads an unsettling grin to spread across his face as he studies it in the light, giggling in a way that has her rolling her eyes with an exasperated huff.

"Is this what you're into, darling? Why didn't you tell me?"

She hardly remembers Gortash-- 'hardly' almost being an exaggeration. Something primal and clawing in her broken brain had responded to the sight of him; his spiced scent, the sound of his voice in her ear, the way he had eyed her as if he had wanted to tear her apart-- but her memory is a heavy stone door, firmly locking her out of her own mind and memories. He was important to her at one point, this much she knows, but whatever they had together wasn't enough for her to sacrifice the world-- her world-- at the altar of his memory.

"I don't know, Astarion. You know that."

"Oh, you must've been!" He arches a brow, giving her a scandalous smile, reaching to inhale his palm. "Seems like he hardly took it off. Still smells vaguely like you—"

"Because I just plucked it from his corpse!"

He hums dismissively, smirking insufferably as he clinks the metallic fingertips on his wrist. "I can be more eccentric, if that's what you desire—"

"Astarion!"

"He made eyes like a spurned puppy at you, darling. Hesitated to take the shot on you when he could've taken your life if he chose. You must've had something quite special—"

"Are you going to be like all evening?"

"Depends on how you'd like to spend that evening," he leans in, tongue flicking out at her neck. "I have a few ideas—"

The sharp edge of the claw glides softly along the curve of her chin. There is something in his tone that glides across her like a wayward blade, shaving across her skin and threatening to cut. It is flirtatious and inviting, but somehow disdainful and biting, in true Astarion style. There is hurt deep beneath the purr, vulnerability he desperately needs to cover up and bury beneath a mound of licentiousness.

She frowns at him, pushing his arm aside as she exhales her frustration. "Why are you acting like this?"

There's a lilt to his lips that she catches; a slight downturn that even he doesn't catch before she sees it. It's a flash expression but she knows him well enough to catch the glimpse before it fades. He says nothing, nose upturned and fingers still furling-- and yet, he blinks down at the gauntlet, his eyes narrowing and mouth puckering into a slight scowl.

Oh.

"Are you jealous, Astarion?"

"What?" He scoffs, waving his hand in front of his face dismissively. "What a laugh! Don't be absurd—"

"Oh, you so are!"

She swears she sees his pale cheeks flush, adams apple bobbing ever so slightly. If he hadn't recently fed, it probably wouldn't have been noticeable at all.

"Ridiculous," He puffs air out of his nose, sneering. "Did you see him? That hair and ridiculous outfit? By the Gods, at least put some effort in. Apostle of a God--"

She reaches forward, curling her hand in his, worming her fingers underneath the edges of the ostentatious piece, hearing it drop to the floor with an insignificant clink.

"I did see him--" She reaches up, smoothing the curve of his cheek, coaxing him to look at her. His eyes flick over, wide and red and round, a flash of vulnerability in them as he meets her gaze. "--And I see you."

His hand finds its way to match hers, his knuckles entwining with her love and warmth. He leans in to the touch, a soft sound from his throat as he does. His face falls, and for a moment-- a singular, beautiful moment-- his mask falls away.

"I see who is on the floor, and who stands beside me now. Do you?"

[y-rhywbeth2]

Really the BG3 cast have very little grounds to complain about a single night's mild attempt at murder: Jaheira and Minsc both had it worse. Did you almost get torn apart by the Slayer, manifested out of the blue mid-fight at any point? Did you wake up to the avatar of murder trying to tear every single one of you limb from limb in the middle of the night? Because these transformations came with no warning or ability to resist it was just "wakey-wakey, time to kill all your friends - from Dad."

Blessed be the boots of speed because, in my experience, the Slayer had a tendency to gib things it caught beyond all resurrection. Chunks everywhere!

#As I recall most of the party gets snippy with you about it #Except Viconia and Dorn who think it's sexy but also “never try to kill me again or else” #I remember being very wary of using the Slayer because I really didn't want to lose control of it #/durge #bg2 spoilers #babbling #playthrough shenanigans

[squidaped-oyt]

Astarion's incredibly insincere and obvious Act 1 flattery comes off even worse in the case of the Dark Urge lmao

#bg3 spoilers #dark urge spoilers #the durge was canonically being vivisected while conscious (again) and trying to strangle kressa bonedaughter with their own intestines lik #a week ago #not to mention giving themselves even more blunt force trauma by banging their head on the inside of their pod #and breaking their fingers trying to claw their way out #even with healing magic they are not going to be in great shape after all that #but astarion is gritting his teeth and pretending this poor amnesiac (who looks deader than he does) is some kind of vision of beauty #hilarious

"What is the worth of a single mortal life?"

— "Mine seems worth little, as my blood calls me to harm others."

Replaying BG3 the way God intended: as a hot pink tiefling Durge. Meet Red, my kind hearted-yet-unintentionally-scary Dark Urge!

[emmodii-mode]

Just finished my first playthrough of BG3. Romanced Lae'zel, but ending up turning into an Illithid because the idea of making Orpheus or Karlach do it didn't sit well with me (or my character).

I told Lae'zel to leave with Orpheus in the end (I heard she wouldn't stay with a ghaik anyway, which she's valid for, but also, it doesn't feel right to ask her to stay when I know how much her people mean to her). And like-

Her face before she flies off---

She looks so heartbroken and sad.

#emmodii rambles #baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate series #lae'zel #spoilers #i don't regret my choices and i do love a good angsty story. but at the same time... OOF. #may you find a new source of joy in the astral realm my queen :'( #for anyone curious- i played a githyanki which i heard is the only race that can fly off with her or something? #but well. again- didn't quite fit my character to have someone else turn instead pfffft #ALSO HE'S A CLERIC OF ILMATER AND A REDEEMED DARK URGE. self-sacrifice is kiNDA TO BE EXPECTED HAHAHA. #anyway- do give romancing lae'zel a shot guys. she may be a hardass at first but it's really because she cares a lot #also slightly off-topic but as a dark urge gith... durge grew up in a city so like. wonder how out of place they woulda felt with the #other githyankis anyway. i think i read somewhere that a gith durge realises they don't really feel connected to creches and stuff #which is interesting and makes me curious about how exactly they were made. cuz they have the traits and knowledge of the race but didn't #grow up with them. i guess the easiest answer would be 'god magic shenanigans' but STILL. #trust me to overthink things hahaha XD #if anyone's curious what happened to my guy in the end--- we followed wyll and karlach to avernus hahaha #what are the devils gonna do? steal the soul we don't have?? TRY IT BITCH #of course i did reload multiple times to have my character kill himself. because that was another option that felt possible for his charact #...and also because i wanted to see how companions would react to it. krewfjewlkrjewklrjewl- although the narration for durge suicide #is also quite interesting! of course maybe that's just me being mentally ill eff (/lh) but having a kill that isn't going to murder daddy? #gives a redeemed durge some control and a final say at last. which is still sad but a nice way to tie up their death methinks #ANYWAY- time to go find a way to convert him into a full-on OC. elves and dwarves are one thing but giths are blatantly dnd so i'mma have #to figure that out for my own story lore and universe--- some kinda new species? humanify him? or convert to another existing general speci #hmm hmm hmmmmmmmmmm-

Feral Durge, who chose to embrace Bhaal but didn't dominate the brain, shows up to the epilogue growling and pissing themselves , and goes to kill everyone.

Minthara, when they stumble up, she just presses her lips and does a disappointing head tilt: darling, you broke your chains again. apologies everyone, she's/he's not suppose to be here, (to them) I was going to bring you some food. We talked about this.

#[ 🕷️ ] —— musings #[ if you think for a second after goading durge to embrace Bhaal she'd leave them to it? and abandon them when their mind goes? ] #[ oh no she's gonna cage them so they don't hurt themselves and help them and try to help them master those urges once again because #[ goddamn it- come on ] #[ darling you are BUILT different- you are BETTER than this and I will stay with you until you find yourself again- #*sighs when they bite her again* ... we talked about this. here have some roasted dwarf. ]
