au where the dark urge can convince orin to abandon bhaal without her getting slayered and killed but durge gets cursed by bhaal to be consumed by their urge in exchange

the fun thing about having multiple durges with such a different range of ages and times when they came to the temple is that i also essentially get three versions of orin to play with as well

getting both orin encounters before long-resting for the first time in act 3 is really funny btw. have to imagine my durge is just choosing to ignore everything she's saying every time she pops up

This is also interesting in regards to my main Dark Urge and Orin dynamic—one of them is a shapechanger latching onto things that give her a complete identity while the other is desperately trying to throw away anything connected to their sense of self—including and up to their own name
one of the things about Orin that fascinates me is how she definitely is a dedicated bhaalist, but not nearly as dedicated to bhaal and how that's shown in a bunch of little (many unintentional) ways! her outfit being red instead of the traditional bhaalist black (or that weird bronze/gold some bhaalist armor gets), her title of the Red given to her not by bhaal nor fellow bhaalists, but by her cognate doppelgangers, the jewelry she shares with her mother but is worn by no other bhaalists, etc.
even before she says "I did all this for [Sarevok]!" and finding her Helena's corpse in Orin's room even after her mother attempted to kill her, a fact which she is clearly and justifiably caught up in, you can still see the breadcrumbs leading to the fact she is primarily driven by her more direct familial connections instead of her god
