This is subjective, but I believe Warlock <\/strong>is an obvious frontrunner for the most fun Dark Urge class<\/strong> for roleplaying for one specific reason\u2014patrons. Wyll, a Warlock Origin Character, has his Patron (a demon, devil, archfey, or other otherworldly beings that grant a Warlock their powers) show up several times throughout the game, and his pact plays a considerable role in his story.<\/p>
I think we’re meant to feel bad for Wyll and glad it’s not us, but being that I was playing a Warlock myself, I felt jealous. Where was my Patron?<\/p>
The <\/strong>Dark Urge background causes you to have all sorts of nefarious nighttime visitors<\/strong>, moral dilemmas<\/strong>, and rewards<\/strong> for behaving monstrously. Sometimes, you’re forced to do bad things, which isn’t too much of a stretch for the Dark Urge.<\/p>
In BG3, <\/em>the custom character Warlocks doesn’t have a patron. They select one during character creation, but that’s the end\u2014they never appear as Wyll’s does. Selecting the Dark Urge background as a Warlock<\/strong> fills this void and scratches that itch that can only be scratched by being forced to commit atrocious evils or risk everything in defiance. It makes your Warlock feel like an actual Warlock. Baldur’s Gate 3<\/em><\/p>
