== Notes ==
==The Dark Urge's Past==
{{SpoilerBox|Numerous details from the Dark Urge's past can be uncovered in the game.
* Numerous instances suggest that the Dark Urge was created directly from the dead flesh Bhaal, rather than from copulation like most Bhaalspawn.
** In dialogue with [[Naaber]], the Dark Urge can say this, and that they thus have no birthdate.
** It is said in dialogue with [[Sceleritas Fel]], after becoming Bhaal's Chosen.
* Eating the [[Noblestalk]] mushroom as Dark Urge will unlock one of two memories:
** If eaten before meeting [[Sceleritas Fel]]. they remember acts of cannibalism.
** If eaten after meeting Sceleritas Fel, they remember the torture and murder of one of their victims.
* If [[Heal]] is cast on the Dark Urge, they unlock one of two memories:
** If cast prior to killing [[Orin]], they remember that they killed their foster parents.
** If cast after killing Orin, they remember playing with friends in childhood, after being taken in by their foster parents.
* According to [[Sceleritas Fel]], the Dark Urge is a necrophiliac.
* Dialogue with [[Orin]] disguised as [[Zethino]] implies that she and Dark Urge may have had an incestuous relationship, but it is left ambiguous.
* The journal entry for [[The Urge|Uncover your Scars]] suggests the that the Dark Urge may have had a sexual relationship with the Elder Brain.

==Notes==
*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 along with Sceleritas Fel were revealed in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuAg2f4MZG8 final video] where the white-scaled dragonborn kills the detective.
*Due to similarities the Dark Urge shares with previous Baldur's Gate protagonists, it is theorized that they are the canon protagonist of [[Baldur's Gate 3]]. This has not been confirmed or denied as of the time of writing.
