- Durge: "I need to protect you, I'm about to try and murder you!" - Other Companions: "You won't kill me, I know you." - Lae'zel: "Fuck around and find out!"
Not the tender comfort you get from a lot of your companions but this does feel like a reasonable response to your partner saying they’re about to kill you.
Lae'zel's *respect* for you is more impressive and valuable, than her love. Or at least, she'd think of it that way. Gith don't encourage vulnerability. They show care through encouragement, calm assurance. They've assessed you very closely and have deemed you admirable. She acts like you're the king and queen of a lion pride - she expects the best from you, and trusts that she'll get it. She cheers you on with such surety that it feels like she's bemused why you even have to ask. I love her, lmao
It's so funny how no one else at the camp wakes up despite Laezel low key yelling amd PC grubting whole night Or maybe they just think it's normal sexy times soubds for them and pretend not to hear
I like how Lea'zel is threatening to kill you while in the same time you can tell that she cares about you a lot, even if she doesn't have the courage to say it. Like - she says she will kill you if you spill her blood while in the same time doing everything in her power to make sure you don't have the opportunity so that she doesn't have to put her money where her mouth is. She's a tsundere through and through.
I love how she oscillates between actually helping you and being fairly nonchalant about it and between going "If you don't manage to conquer it right this second I'm beheading you because I have better things to be doing with my time." It's such a weird contrast and she manages to jump from one to the other in seconds. It's like: "This is a battle and we will win!!! We are unstoppable together!! You will win today, you will win every day!! We will best this urge, we're warriors and we what? We win!!!! YEEHAW" "But anyway if winning takes you even a second too long I'm skinning you. Hope this helps."
Pretty sure that’s her own panic response rising. She’s been battle trained pretty much from birth so all her instincts are “kill” but when there’s nothing to kill it just comes out in the form of a snarled death threat that calms her nerves more than anything. But that’s just my guess lmao
I see it more as a Githyanki culture thing, to meet threats with a threat of their own. Lae'zel has never lied during the story and is very open with all of her intentions. If she says something like, "attack us and I will cut you in half", and her opponent moves to draw their sword, Lae'zel will probably actually do it and spray the scene with gore, as a display of her power and ability to keep her word. That's how the Lawful Evil militaristic Githyanki space pirate culture probably works. So if the Bhaalspawn claims they are going to ritualistically murder her and paint the walls with her guts, then Lae'zel will see that as a promise, and meet it with honesty about what would happen too. It's like two growling dogs sizing each other up, not showing weakness, made into some kind of cultural staple habit. Just look at how the first meeting between Voss and Lae'zel goes.
@@ralk7048 Yeah I didn't mean to suggest that she's lying, I just found the way her culture approaches this really funny. Mostly because it's just...very untraditional in our eyes. Lae'Zel is a very blunt and pragmatic person and it's amusing to see this situation unfold because her reactions are just...very bizarre to us as a culture that isn't as pragmatic or militaristic as hers.
@@monochromedream-eatingbaku You didn't come off as saying she's lying either. I take that you meant because of cultural differences she could appear inconsistent, but that she's actually completely consistent and logical within her culture. She's an interesting character where players' opinions are very polarized. You have people who loathe her because she's not "nice" to them and attempt to get rid of her or put her in camp the whole game; and you have people who appreciate her being honest all the time, or find her mannerisms endearing. I think people that go out of their way to hate her have self-esteem issues. Being online for too long tend to mess with people's minds.
Lae'zel is "I care about you on the left" and "I'll stick you with a knife if you don't control yourself" on the right. Mostly empty threats from fear and coping. She's playing mean but really does care.
@@kaynnoir funnily enough, this is the approach that might actually help. Like, I'm all for empathy, but dark urge is some serious messed-up shit, and I think Lae'zel is the one who treats it most seriously, and she probably has a lot of experience of quenching the blood - thirst
This MC is so pretty!! You’re really out there in the trenches with like a dozen different MCs getting to this point. I’m at 60hrs and only at the start of Act II 😂
You're doing god's work by archiving so many cool interactions! If you ever have the Shadowheart Shart path end with Dark Urge please post here, I'm dying to see it!
I played a good Durge run romancing La’ezel and it bugged and never gave me this scene :( I just had a regular long rest with no cutscene and then my journal updated saying I spent the night wiggling around on the ground or something lol Also, you never told her?? I told her about the urges as soon as I got the chance, because I knew she’d be completely chill about it, and she was 😂
Lae'zel and Karlach are probably the two best suited to deal with durge. Even tho Karlach is waay sweeter than Lae'zel, I don't doubt she wouldn't hesitate to drop your ass if you tried to kill her lol
Wow! That was Unromantic I've been watching this scene with different romances karlack made me cry because we can beat the darkness together but lazel just not if i kill you first energy Hahahaha
In this scene Butler gives a truthful and precise comment about each companion: Astarion is afraid of everyone but Durge, Gale is a walking apocalypse ready to forget his god for Durge, Shadowheart put her trust only in Durge. So I was was pretty surprised to hear when he said that Lae'zel was using Durge. Is she a devotee to Vlaakith in this playthrough?
@@kaynnoir wow you must have like 500h or something any chance you also know if you can swap romance partner mid act 2 or is it already too late to start a new romance?
@@diegoaragao6618 You can absolutely still switch romance partners! I'd even say in act 3 you still have time. Doing the story of the future companion you want to romance will boost their appreciation for you a lot. So make sure you do it. Also, act 3 offers many opportunities to raise their affection as well.
@@kaynnoir thanks for the info, tbh I dont know if I can dump laezel now, she really grown on me after this scene and the next one when we 1v1 each other I guess I'll need many playthroughs to honor all these great characters
The cosmetic mods I'm using are Loulette Heads, Customizer's Compendium, Tav's Hairpack, and Basket Full of Equipment. I cannot tell you the exact face shape/ hair type since there aren't names for them. Good Luck!

Tav: I have a Blood God's urge to kill!
Lae'zel: Hot
I love how both Lae'zel and Astarion are like "Actually you're kind of hot when you're feral" 😹
Anything that adds to survival is hot to Gith. Extreme willingness for violence counts.
I like how Lea'zel is threatening to kill you while in the same time you can tell that she cares about you a lot, even if she doesn't have the courage to say it.

She's a tsundere through and through.
Laezel has just two hearts in her chest. One is the warrior with the strictness of a warrior nation and the second is a tender heart.

Everything she says is out of real care, she is unlike other githyanki.
Somehow I expected no less 😅
Right? Lol, I didn't know what I expected but I didn't expect military training treatment lmao

I do it so other's don't have to!! And well.. Maybe I'm curious to see them too Lol
I only reached act 2 at 160 hours lmao, but I'm insane so I know I'm not the norm
"I- it's not like a like you or anything... B- Baka!"
Even when Lae'zel is being sweet she's threatening.
Of course Lae'zel seems to be the one companion who's a little turned on by it.
I have murdered practically everyone we have encountered and she is obsessed with me

Karlach suplexing the Dark Urge is 100% in character xD
Tav can be happy to have such companions, that do help him/her in this situation. Other people would just finish him/her off.
Wow! That was Unromantic I've been watching this scene with different romances karlack made me cry because we can beat the darkness together but lazel just not if i kill you first energy Hahahaha
how do you have 15 inspiration stored? I thought the maximum was four.
It's pretty clear that it's a mod
There's a max? Damn, I better start using them then
There‘s a mod that raises the limit to 99.

She is a woman on a mission. She considers you a useful asset, but will move on without hesitation.
how do you have all these savefiles?
different MC and different romance partner
Nothing special. Spent hours getting there is all. Lol.

i made sity-two save files one of each race for dark urge and custom tav and i'm slighty crazy oh hell yes
Fine ill play durge again
Why is the Sceleritas intro so different in this one from all the other one's I've seen?
I love Lae'zel: she's a real one
can you write down appereance settings for this tiefling plz? ty

What's the condition to trigger this event?
Choose Dark Urge character at the character creation
you also need to not kill isobel
@@xiadui7209 well then i choose human so that's mean i cannot get this event then
@@pixoloanimation8895 dark urge is fully customizable, you only can't change your background. Everything else: race, class, gender etc are up to you
@@pixoloanimation8895no, you can play a human dark urge. The origin is completely customizable.
