Playing as a female Durge hits differently because I see Durge and Orin' sister relationship as the equivalent of Vietnamese Cinderella and her younger stepsister minus the cannibalism (before you ask, there are multiple instances of murders and cannibalism going on in our version and it is NOT done to outsiders)

#mortified by what Tấm (our name for Viet Cinderella) did to her sister and this comes from someone who loves evil women #but honestly I can't blame Tấm who reincarnates thrice just to be like “sis u gotta stop doing that”#at least Orin's mother didn't assist her with murder compared to the Viet stepmother #oh and instead of Withers we have a fairy godfather who lives under a very old tree who revives Cinderella a few times #funny coincidence is one of the ways to address father in Vietnamese is Ba (pronounced like Bhaal without the L in the end)#maybe I'll have Lily's nickname as Tấm (for Minthy's only) hehe #that reminds me the way Tấm is named vs her stepsis? this tells you the listeners which one is favored #and deemed as the better sibling #our folklore/fairy tales are a lil 'different'#first accidental horror fairytale/folklore when I was five #OC: Lily #mybg3durge #colin plays bg3
