* The final origin character was revealed through [https://bloodinbaldursgate.larian.com/ Blood in Baldur's Gate ARG]. The players controlled a detective investigating a chain of murders. On the final day of the ARG, The Dark Urge was revealed, along with [[Sceleritas Fel]]. The ARG ends with the white-scaled dragonborn killing the detective.
* Due to similarities the Dark Urge shares with previous Baldur's Gate protagonists, it is theorised that they are the canon protagonist of [[Baldur's Gate 3]]. This has not been confirmed or denied as of the time of writing.
