Is there any way to justify (IC) knocking out Alfira so that you get Quil? I want her for my Dragonborn Durge specifically because of the more interesting interactions in it, but I don't want to have to heavy cheese to do it.
Agree!! I never seen this interaction as dragonborn, and was expecting something cooler! But I kinda understand since Dark Urge don't really remembers much from their past 🤔
Admittedly, since this is a Dark Urge exclusive thing, this _would_ canonically be their first experience with it, or Dragonborn culture. They've been in Baldur's Gate all their lives, most of it as a psychotic mass murderer, and even outside that, they've lost their memory completely. It's a strange, foreign thing to them. And that's if you're playing as a Dragonborn/Default Dark Urge!
I know Dragonborn were added later into development, but I kinda wish there could be more unique interactions with her, or even more drogonborn npc's before act 3. And damn it, if I can horizontal smash a mind flayer why can't I with a dragonborn lol
This are exactly my thoughts 😔 to begin with, I don't wanted to romance anyone because I wanted to see if there was a dragonborn option, then during act 2 Gale basically got me haha
Dragonborn are a rare sight every where considering faerun isn't where they came from to begin with. They were born and enslaved by God like dragons like tiamat on another planet.
To be fair, dragonborns are rare in the sword coast, if I'm not mistaken, I think only 1 major city in Faerun has the majority of them, can't say for the other continents. There's even less of them after the second sundering. But at the same time, yeah, even 1 npc in act 1, or two in act2 would had been amazing to stumble to as a dragonborn pc.
fun fact about Quil: she is a literal replacement of Alfira to die here. if you check her stats, you'll notice that she has dark vision and fire resistence, which a silver dragonborn would not to have by any means.
*the narrator, grumbling* I had this whole revelation prepared and the player fumbled up the character I set Up.... Need to string up a new one Hold on...
i think that’s the point, if you read your journal it says “she could’ve been the greatest bard the world has ever seen, nothing to you, the greatest murderer the world has ever seen”
They just HAD to send someone for Alfira who is just as wholesome and friendly didn't they? They couldn't just send some random bandit who said something like "Aaaaayyy y'all maggots, I'll sleep by your camp tonight, if you don't let me I'll kill y'all ayyyyyy????"
@@thehippie3610 i was torn between her and alfira because dragonborns are my favorite race in dnd (lizardmen are second place tho), but alfira gives you a great sorcerer/warlock robe, i ended up killing alfira but sadly no robe for my sorcerer durge 😢
Yes is very sad ;-; I felt so bad I almost went back to kill Alfira instead, but I also want to see her later and we don't get to see Quil after this :(
Poor girl. To say she was down on her luck in the final few hours of her life is putting it lightly. From getting robbed to this. I can say without doubt that my Dragonborn Dark Urge downright despised himself for doing what he did to her.
Quil: "I can't wait for what is coming next!" Evil DUrge: "Me neither..." Real talk though, this conversation is so heartbreaking. :( I hope there's at least a way (or perhaps modders will add it in the future) to bring her manuscript to Baldur's Gate and at least have her songs published. That way at least she'll have a legacy to be remembered by.
would have been cool if in act 3 if you are playing normal Tav run you can meet her with her published manuscript. As a nice lil easter egg treat of her living with her 'whole life ahead of her'.
I was really hoping there would be a secret interaction where if you're a dragonborn her singing actually sounds all nice and beautiful whereas everyone else would hear the throat singing lol
Agree! I think they got the best expressions, the more human looking ones sometimes make very abrupt (I think is how is spelled) faces and I dont like them XD
With Dragonborn being added so late, this is unfortunately like the most Dragonborn lore in the game and the only Way to even experience it is by playing durge and then knocking out Alfira, it's a lot of hoops to jump just to even get to know some DB lore
I mean, technically speaking, if you do kill Alfira, then Quill should still be alive out and about on her way to Baldur’s gate, or at least I’d like to think so…
@@TheAlexEah That is if she dies or if she doesnt? If there were a way to see her alive in Baldur's Gate if you kill Alfira, she'd die in every run of my Durges haha
WHY WHY IS THE ONLY DRAGONBORN”COMPANION” MEANT TO ONLY DIE??? ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A DRAGONBORN, SHE FLIRTS WITH YOU, AND TALKS ABOUT A JOURNEY FOR LOVE, AND SINGS TO YOU IN THE WORD OF YOUR PEOPLE WHY LARIAN WHY
During my first playthrough I wasn't going to romance anyone because I was hoping a dragonborn companion was available, but nope, also Gale stole my heart in act 2... So there's that too xD
It kinda sucks that if you play DU, this is the only moment in which player can not control the actions of the character and "1 bard has to die" - Alfira or Quil. And actually sacrificing Quil is technically better option (Yekes !) as that NPC appears only for that one moment in your camp while Alfira is in act 2 & 3 (if Alfira is unconscious with 1hp or turned into stone with a spell). Seeing how default DU Origin is a Dragonborn too, Larian clearly wanted players to hate their own character in that very moment. I mean even if you kill DU right before long rest, Alfira or Quil still dies...
I agree, I think Quil is a very loveable character, and after meeting her for the first time I was reconsidering myself if I should go back and just kill Alfira to just let her do her things, even if I would never see her, but make myself happy ;-; I wish they would of given us a dragonborn to romance, she would of been perfect! A bard for the party that is also a Dragonborn!
Not played dark urge yet. Is there a story reason you end up killing them, or is it just the devs were like "we've decided to tease you by a cool character wanting to join you, then you kill then"
@@gferrol118 basically yes, devs want you to feel powerless towards the urges your character have, but *that* is really the only time you cannot control yourself (besides if you have to roll, and fail, like in my other video), otherwise you are free to control them or just follow them
You can actually not kill one of the bards in the beginning, but one of them still die, I don't remember the steps, i think DU needs to be dead the night of the interaction but someone posted a video and apparently the butler kills the bard and even has dialogue for the dark urge when he does it, protects you from being the murderer but they still die.
I do too! I was contemplating the idea of going back to Save Quil, but since I don't see her other than there, I felt like I had to save Alfira ;-; but I would love to see Quil somewhere in Baldur's Gate honestly, if you do end up killing Alfira
@@xKiTKaT18x Oh yes! That would be so cool! Like she is some really popular songstress now that inspires all the dragonborne to change their point of view on love! And that she'll perform either on the streets or in some taverns
@@Sacred_Korok69 that would be amazing ;-; because by the sounds of it, she had a very rough time, it would be so cool that she had some good luck for once in her life, instead of just stumbling up to the Dark Urge and getting kill ;-;
What irks me is that there isn't even a possible outcome in which she can survive. Even if it were a 99 skill check, I could live with that. But no, even telling Alfira / Quil to go away doesn't save them.
@@user-mu8ok5xf8dNo, that little imp Sceleritas ganks her the second she leaves your camera. I went over to where she broke line of sight, and that's where the body was. I tried it many ways. Including outright killing my Durge with Shadowheart right on the first little beach and played the game up until that point, and nothing changed.
@@Asgaardiangatekeeper the only way is making her be knocked unconscious before you have the rest that would have her show up. Then someone else comes to stay at the camp and she gets killed instead
Now i wonder if you don't meet her as DU and she isn't anywhere to meet, does that mean that she dies at the hands of goblins in other scenarios and that's why we never meet her
Oooo does it? I remember seeing many people pointing at "the meaning" but no one replied to me when I asked so never really worried. Is a cool meaning tho!
Yeah, no other character tries to kill Alfira (or Quil in this case), but apparently based off some comments, you can find out about Quil during act 3 🤔
Quil has a good friend in Baldurs Gate who is in love with her. Which makes the meeting and killing of her, very sad. (* you can find a letter of a flaming fist in the cells of Saveroks Temple. A man who wrote a letter to Quil....saying how much he likes her)
It's a shame that she can't be a romance option, it's weird being a Dragonborn and trying to romance normal people. Not to mention we don't have any bard companions.
During my very first run with my husband playing together, I was so excited to have Alfira as a companion, it did *not* last long because I was also Dark Urge ;-;
@@JMAssainatorz hahaha is alright! During the bits you can see her sometimes it is hard to tell, also in BG3 you can use a female body with male voice so anything goes! I do really love dragonborns in this game tho 🥺
I have a mod that allows me to buy all the camp clothes in the grove! That one is called Eminent Obsidian Outfit, naturally you find it in Act 3 in fancy wardrobes or if lucky, in random boxes!
Writing a fanfic including the Dark Urge and i consider Quil to be his canon victim. Especially since Durge is a companion to my Tav, who is also a romantic innocent. It makes perfect sense that he would welcome her. I might even give her a little more time, have her arrive in time for everyone to get to know her, enjoy her company...only to wake up the next morning with her dead... Durge is not the same after that. (Also in my head he brings her manuscript to Baldur's Gate and has it published posthumously)
Part of me knows that it isn't necessarily for the best, but if this were almost any other company but Larian, we'd have DLC options like "Recruitable Quil Grootslang" or "Upper City DLC coming Q1 2025."
Or at least as a Hireling. There isn't a single dragonborn hireling in-game (Fafnir was supposed to be the dragonborn/sorcerer hireling but he got replaced by the High Half-Elf Jacelyn before release).
Yep hahaha. It kind of makes sense that *our* Durge Dragonborn do not know much of its meaning since well, they lose their memories and most like raised in Baldur's Gate, the face is super funny tho XD
Honestly this is one of my only complaints about Baldurs gate 3. The main party is great, but it honestly feels limited when you see how many character there are that are genuinely interesting. Quil is one of them, but theres also Zevlor, Alfira, and Isobel. Its insane that the games so good, that the only complaint I really have (Other than that god awful saving system) is that the side characters are literally TOO engaging and interesting.
El único personaje en mi campamento que genuinamente quería tener como compañera y le hacen esto :C A mi equipo le faltaron bardos (si no fuera pq yo voy bardo en todas mis runs), y siempre quise romancear una dragonborn, además de que su lore es muy bonito :C
Yo fui Dark Urge en mi primera partida con mi marido, y my reaccion fue: "Oh que guay! Vamos a tener un Bardo :D" *Long rest* "NOOOOOOO 😭" ;-; una tragedia
@@jjgamer1178 thank you for the compliments!! She is my favorite Tav and I've played as her many times now. That outfit naturally is found in act 3 in crates or shops, but I used a mod called "Purchasable camp clothes" to get them in act 1! That is my favorite outfit by far :3
@@xKiTKaT18x you’d break it into two words, groot and slang (the g on groot it’s the same as German g and slang is more like an ah sound so slahng if that makes sense) so her name will mean big snake 💀 groot is big and slang is snake
your Durge face when Quil started throat singing, he like the dafaq? as if he forgot his birthrights (which makes sense cause they don't remember their past), also is it true that the dark urge is canonically a dragonborn?
The default Dark urge character is a white dragonborn, and if you are not a Dark Urge character, you can find the model of the default Durge as a body from Orin in act 3! So I would say that they are canonically a dragonborn 🤔
Besides Ansur this game is particularly short on dragons in general. On the subject, I think the last time we got to meet a silver dragon was all the way back in the second game. Which would be over 20 years ago.
BG3 Dark Urge loses their memories, they hardly remember who they are, and I doubt they were raised in the ways of normal Dragonborns 🤔 no spoiling just in case but you'll find out between act 2 and 3 why ;D
Yep, as said below, Quil Grootslang take the place of Alfira during Dark Urge runs if you knock her out or kill her.
Does she actually appear anywhere in the game but here?

Rofl @ the sudden throat singing, the player's character looked speechless in the "WTF??" sense. 😂
Quill: Is there someone you love? Come on, I won't tell!
Dark Urge: *I'll make sure of it*
Writing a fanfic including the Dark Urge and i consider Quil to be his canon victim. Especially since Durge is a companion to my Tav, who is also a romantic innocent. It makes perfect sense that he would welcome her. I might even give her a little more time, have her arrive in time for everyone to get to know her, enjoy her company...only to wake up the next morning with her dead...
Durge is not the same after that. (Also in my head he brings her manuscript to Baldur's Gate and has it published posthumously)
Part of me knows that it isn't necessarily for the best, but if this were almost any other company but Larian, we'd have DLC options like "Recruitable Quil Grootslang" or "Upper City DLC coming Q1 2025."
Ayo girly really came in and went "Wow you're so pretty can I stay for the night?" like DAYUM girl, really be living that bard life.
But look how it ended up for her :( saddest ending ;-;
Ah, tHe LAngUaGe oF lOvE
Hopefully in the future she becomes a companion
I sure hope so :(
Or at least as a Hireling. There isn't a single dragonborn hireling in-game (Fafnir was supposed to be the dragonborn/sorcerer hireling but he got replaced by the High Half-Elf Jacelyn before release).
So that was supposed to be a Dragonborn love song? Well to each their own I suppose.
Yep hahaha. It kind of makes sense that *our* Durge Dragonborn do not know much of its meaning since well, they lose their memories and most like raised in Baldur's Gate, the face is super funny tho XD
Larian sure put a lot of characterization into a character only 0,0001% of players will ever encounter
@@Wolfenzorn yeahhh, I honestly just know about her because a friend told me, since they killed the druid grove and were dark urge
Whole life ahead of her. happy to be alive. Suprised she didn't say her name was Bullseye.
I had a miss opportunity there ;-; I should of clip when my Durge just kills her
Honestly this is one of my only complaints about Baldurs gate 3. The main party is great, but it honestly feels limited when you see how many character there are that are genuinely interesting. Quil is one of them, but theres also Zevlor, Alfira, and Isobel. Its insane that the games so good, that the only complaint I really have (Other than that god awful saving system) is that the side characters are literally TOO engaging and interesting.
Oh yeah all that guttural throat rumbling was a real turn on
He looks like he want's to say "my kind does WHAT!?"
El único personaje en mi campamento que genuinamente quería tener como compañera y le hacen esto :C
A mi equipo le faltaron bardos (si no fuera pq yo voy bardo en todas mis runs), y siempre quise romancear una dragonborn, además de que su lore es muy bonito :C
Yo fui Dark Urge en mi primera partida con mi marido, y my reaccion fue:
"Oh que guay! Vamos a tener un Bardo :D"
*Long rest*
"NOOOOOOO 😭"
;-; una tragedia
Not a bad song.
Omg that dragon born looks bloody amazing I don’t think it’s just the outfit but it helps a lot
Fuck it I’m gonna put more care into my tav to the mirror I go!
Also pls someone tell me where they got that outfit
@@jjgamer1178 thank you for the compliments!! She is my favorite Tav and I've played as her many times now. That outfit naturally is found in act 3 in crates or shops, but I used a mod called "Purchasable camp clothes" to get them in act 1! That is my favorite outfit by far :3
Oh god, she's even cuter than Alfira😢
okay i played through this game 3 times and ive never seen her ever lol
That's common! I wouldn't of known if a friend didn't tell me first!
Mans is shook.
4:10 YES YOU CAN MADAM RUN
She’s sweet but the real evil option would have been to let that singing persist in the world
im sad you can't spare alfira and quil
Yes it is very sad 😔 I wish we could fully add them to our party
A shame to kill her but... the Potent Robe is a really good item and you can't meet her any other way so...
Dragonborn Tav: … am I horrified or horni???
When the hell will this be out on console!?!? Like damn
I think is on PlayStation right now! And early next year or at the very very end onto this one for Xbox!
@@xKiTKaT18x thanks for the heads up👍
Reading her name when you can speak Afrikaans makes it a lot funnier
What does it mean? 👀
@@xKiTKaT18x you’d break it into two words, groot and slang (the g on groot it’s the same as German g and slang is more like an ah sound so slahng if that makes sense) so her name will mean big snake 💀 groot is big and slang is snake
@@ynlikesgirls I mean, I think is pretty cool :O
@@xKiTKaT18x yea :)
Ok..fine... I'll play Quill....
Poor girl 😢
Repeat after me
"It's better than Alfira....it's better than Alfira..." That will make it all okay.
I love color option did you choose? I like how it looks
For my Dragonborn? Her base color is the default Gold 2!
The abolute SHOCK on Durge's face killed me
your Durge face when Quil started throat singing, he like the dafaq? as if he forgot his birthrights (which makes sense cause they don't remember their past), also is it true that the dark urge is canonically a dragonborn?
The default Dark urge character is a white dragonborn, and if you are not a Dark Urge character, you can find the model of the default Durge as a body from Orin in act 3! So I would say that they are canonically a dragonborn 🤔
Larian, why we can't romance any dragonborn?
RIGHT I wanted my dragonborn to romance another of her specie :(
I always wonder why she's not wearing pants...
It's her. It's the Lusty Argonian Maid.
Quil>Alfira
Besides Ansur this game is particularly short on dragons in general. On the subject, I think the last time we got to meet a silver dragon was all the way back in the second game. Which would be over 20 years ago.
Such a nice character, too bad it’s a Dark Urge run through. On a side note, I get gold but what the shizz is a goblin gonna do with hose?
I'm just here to mock You about chosing Gale.
I have chosen Gale over 6 times now and happily to do so 🥺
I shall mock You nonetheless as tradition dictates.
Why does the Dragonborn look so shocked after hearing the other Dragonborn sing lol thought they be a custom to this sort of thing
BG3 Dark Urge loses their memories, they hardly remember who they are, and I doubt they were raised in the ways of normal Dragonborns 🤔 no spoiling just in case but you'll find out between act 2 and 3 why ;D
@@xKiTKaT18xwell hopefully playing as a Dragonborn Bard will have some interesting interactions
@@Ninjaheiro that would be cool actually 👀 maybe there is some special special interaction with that!
This reminds me of what my grandmother always said:
"LIZARDS AIN'T GOT TITS!!!!"
Well, more like screamed.
All Night Long.
How did you get that outfit in act 1?
