Q: How did you come up with your Durge?
Durge was my fourth playthrough. Before that, I had exclusively played Tiefling Barbarian Tavs, so I wanted to shake things up. I initially considered playing a Drow but none of the faces really spoke to me. Then I saw the default feminine High Elf and I just laughed aloud. I loved the idea of playing a conventionally pretty character who actually has these monstrous urges. I was mostly attracted to the potential humor in that extreme contradiction!
The irony of her character led to SO MANY comical moments in the game that it inspired me to start making comics again.
It was a fun creative challenge to reconcile the Dark Urge framework with my choices. I saw comments online saying that for Dark Urge’s story to “make sense” that they should be a big buff Paladin / Barbarian / Assassin / Fighter type. So, I instead made my Durge a High Elf Cleric of Talos! I wanted to explore how these choices would influence my take on the Dark Urge.
I was delightfully surprised by what emerged!
My Durge isn’t the biggest or scariest but she is instead very cunning and creepy. She uses people’s assumptions about her appearance to her advantage, a lot like Puss in Shrek 2, or, like Morticia in the 90s film version of the Addams family. Morticia in particular is flippant and flirty, but when her family is threatened, a switch flips and you realize she knows a lot more than she lets on.
I guess I'm just a sucker for characters who subvert expectations in some way - especially to comedic effect!
Made this a text post because it was too hard to write it all out in the comments section! Thanks for the question @anukulee !

My Dark Urge/ durge on a shelf, Pearl. Mephistopheles Tiefling , Cleric of Talos, Tempest domain.
Pearl's mother worshiped Talos and conceived a Bhaalspaw. Her mother taught her to worship Talos and hoped that destrution would be enough to sate the Dark Urge. It only made it worse, causeing Pearl to out the few Talos clusters her mother could find. She would blame the Shar worshipers and flee to a new town. Eventually, after one of Pearl's blackouts a slaughter, her mother faked her own death and fled without Pearl. It wasn't long before Pearl found her way to Bhaal's temple.
Pearl believes destruction and chaos are needed; That they are key for life. When she wakes up with no memories, a whisper of these ideals linger. She feels a strong connection with Shadowheart, knowing what it is like to be shunned for the god one worships.
Of all my tavs/durges on a shelf i have, I can say with most certinty I have no idea how her story is going to play out. It is both terrifying and exciting at the same time.
