Technically they are related as siblings. They could have also been raised together the only difference compared from Orion and durge is that durge like to know the people he will kill. (That’s what I think)
@@varic4638 It's the other way around. You can find a book written by durge where they complain about Orin spending too much time on her kills when Bhaal wants quantity, not quality. While in another book by Orin she complains that durge just mindlessly slaughters and she thinks that each kill should be special.
Ironically, the Sceleritas Fel is the the most nicest companion you can have. He literally loves you for just being you end don't complains about everything you do. Even when you go on redeemed Durge route, he is still loyal to you. The only reason that he is mad of you in this route it because he mad of himself that he failed you to prepare for the fight and now.
I disagree. He never take redeemed durge seriously and think that in the end everything will be fine (durge accepting bhaal again). Even when you explicitly told him that you won’t kill anyone again, his response is “yeah sure, bet you will tho”. He’s basically delusional or won’t accept reality. After we beat orin, he immediately perma died so we won’t really know how he will react to a completely redeemed durge (the one without bhaal’s blood). To me he only loves the bhaalspawn aspect of durge.
Because I can't let myself purposefully lose against Orin, I've never seen this.... she died real fast to my Slayer.... she also died real fast to my redeemed urge sorc 😂 Thanks for posting!
@@kingofgrim4761 oh, I saved ALL defensive buffs I had on hand for it. Overloaded my sorc with them. Had to slip over to Shart (who had cast warding bond on me) outside of combat to revive and heal her before she died because she couldn't handle the damage that Orin was putting on me 🙃. I also made sure to really raise my initiative so I could go first, quicken spell first turn, potion of speed second turn, she was down turn 3. I misplayed a little though because I just completely forgot I had Markoheshkir equipped and could have cast a second 6th level spell 🙃

@@bunnyboygamille hmm interesting. I’ve always heard Gale is the best warding bond cleric cause he heals himself. I never use that kinda stuff, just barrels or similar if I’m bored. I just know I cant beat Orin 1v1 without cheese or a paladin type build

honestly Sceleritas, despite being the butler to Bhallspawn is actually the only member of the Bhaal family that treats you with any respect or love, Orin is a sister who does not care for you and wishes you dead, your mother never loved you truly, and your father only loves your achievements, Sceleritas was like the nanny in those films where the children are so unloved that they begin to accept the nanny as a surrogate mother, its sad really, to see him go like this.
@@PapaHepatitis7170 well then thats why if you read my post. The durge had no REAL mother. They were created from baal and baal alone. Orin is NOT their sister. Orin came from sarevoks family.
My favorite interaction with the butler is that one moment where he’s not protected by being in a conversation/cutscene and I discarded him into a chasm.
@@nio6553it’s strange that he would still want to maintain it now, though. Back then, he was returning fragmented pieces of his essence together so he could reform. But now he’s already back as a quasi-deity, he has nothing to gain from his offspring spreading their essence out any further.
Bhaal literally started the Bhaalspawn thing because he realized he was going to be killed and was like, "Clearly the solution is to impregnate as many people as possible." You could say he went out...with a bang
What is the point if there is no family to go back to? That there is no domination in being enslaved. Gotta do this..despite the ending of them killing with the knifes looking way cooler then snapping necks.
I imagine so; by Sceleritas' own admission the tadpole protects you from Bhaal's influence, so by combining that with the absurd power stolen from the Absolute (see the evil endings for prime examples of its scope, with Karlach's unique ending being the most relevant example for this matter) you should be able to fulfil your evil plans without any complications from the Urge. Destroying the brain and your tadpole along with it however leaves only one way out... One last murder before Bhaal takes you over.
@@iterationfackshet1990 Let's use a bit of logic, shall we? Dark Urge is defeated by Orin, he dies... right, he's dead so no reason for Bhaal to remove the slayer form, that is why it is only after he is revived that Scelly comes to 'take it from him'. (In truth if the game was consistant since Orin killed him as a sacrifice, Whithers shouldn't have been able to revive him). Now... Dark Urge rejects Bhaal, what happens? Bhaal kills him... so... at what point do you suggest Bhaal said 'hey you know, just in case this is somehow not permanent even though it 100% should be, let me just go ahead and switch off the Slayer form'. Yes, 'switch off'. To me, the fact that 1. Durge is 100% Bhaal, 2. Scellaritus even states the form is from his past (so he's had it before) 3. The Dark Urge IS him. It makes more sense to think of it as being blocked off rather than needing to be given to him by Bhaal outside of who/what he is. This whole 'Whithers says he only killed part of him' is a cop out, Sarovac (who gets his information from Bhaal), confirms that the Dark Urge is still a Bhaalspawn, and this makes sense because it's still his same body, same DNA. Furthermore, I would like to see some reasoning as to why Whithers states that it is outside of his usual role to revive Durge, if you really believe that all that is left of him is 'what Bhaal didn't kill'. Unless he is only left with part of a soul, would that not make that part of him just like any other soul to be revived? The reason it's a big deal that Whithers revives Durge at that point is because Bhaal's way of killing him would usually make him unreachable for Withers (just like if Orin's victim is killed, or if Durge sacrifices his lover/favorite companion to Bhaal).
@@saribeepo.o5111I forget the exact wording but doesn’t he say he’s taking his blood back or something he’s taking the bits back from you from him back slayer included
@@AceDan-gc9po But Durge doesn't have a mortal parent. They came from Bhaal entirely. I honestly just think that dialogue is supposed to be more poetic than literal tbh. At least, after Durge is brought back it becomes just a poetic way of being disowned lol
@saribeepo.o5111 bhaal killed durge by taking away his urge and his slayer form. He didn't kill durge and then decide afterwards to also take the slayer form, taking the bhaal stuff out of him is how bhaal killed durge
It's not hard to lose the 1v1 in honour mode, I learned that the hard way. If you trigger a legendary reprisal while Orin's Deathbringer Assault is active, it doesn't matter if you're in Slayer form, you're dead buddy. Unless you stacked every defensive buff on yourself, or knew to bring universal (piercing) resistance, blade ward, or an auto-revive. And if she's the one in Slayer form, getting knocked down = death.
