He can revive the dead at will if he wants, is a intelligent undead with divine powers, is a scribe of the dead, he awakens inside a temple of a forgotten god, and even speaks Old English.

@@scorpiowarrior7841 Durge isn't specifically referred to as his Chosen, but Chosen are defined in bg3/5e lore as individuals imbued with divine power to do a deity or deities' bidding/fight for their cause. Post-ressurection Durge would qualify as a Chosen of Jergal by definition, even if neither Durge nor Withers seem interested in using it as a formal title like they had as Bhaal's Chosen. (Detailed explanation below the cut) Even though Bhaal only reclaimed The Dark Urge for himself, he did kill Durge the person in the process and the rest of their soul that had grown post-amnesia should have been left godless and unclaimed in the Fugue Plane for eternity. And since their soul is both unclaimed and incomplete, it wouldn't work like the (relatively) straightforward resurrections Withers usually offers up when a companion dies - while companion's souls are at least still intact after their temporary deaths, there's quite literally not enough of Durge's soul left to copy-paste back into our plane. As a result, in order for Withers/Jergal to bring Durge back to continue their fight - aka the cause they've been "Chosen" for - he would have to claim what's left of their soul for himself - the Petitioning Hexalys13 is referring too and what he means by being their advocate in the city of the dead - and then imbue it and their mortal body with some of what remains of his power over death - "I, too, hold some power, and invest a portion of it in thee." Sure, it's not a kind of power Durge could actively wield like the Slayer Form Bhaal provides, but only divine power could keep them alive and unchanged despite a massive portion of their soul being taken. And there's a good chance Jergal is the only deity who's capable of bringing a soul back in such a damaged state. Myrkul bringing Isobel back as part of his deal with Ketheric is the closest other example we get, and even then that's him likely using some of Jergal's old powers to more or less kidnap a complete and claimed soul and bring it back after what should have been too much time passed.

Fun Fact for the first Withers encounter, aka how I knew he was absolutely Jergal before this reveal. If you play a cleric of Kelemvor (current God of Death and all around pretty chill dude himself in the lore), you get special dialogue options when meeting Withers the first time. I don't remember exactly what it is, but it's along the lines of "I feel like i know you." To which he replies, "You kinda do." Paraphrased, obviously.

I question Jergal's intent. Original tellings were that he gave up his portfolio as the god of death, tyranny, and murder willingly to Bhaal, Myrkul, and Bane for no other reason than he had grown bored over the eons, only to take on the new role as the Scribe of Death. I never believed that. I believe he always had an ulterior motive behind abandoning his role in the divine pantheon. What is it? Who can say. Perhaps he felt powerless in his role and sought to defy Ao and the High Being via his unorthodox means. Perhaps he seeks to bring about the Final End of all and this is how he intends that goal. Or perhaps he truly is just bored and this is him kicking the nest just to see what stirs. It amuses me to think that Jergal is much more powerful and dangerous than his fellow gods ever gave him credit for.

Withers is a badass, very well thought out character, this game never ceases to impress.

I just realized that The Dark Urge is very different from the common Bhaalspawn. Unlike Gorion's Ward, the main character of the first two games, The Dark Urge wasn't made by Bhaal knocking up a female of The Dark Urge's race, he/she is directly created from Bhaal's blood (which explains why Gorion's Ward had nightmares tempting him/her to give in to the instinct to murder, but never had the powerful impulses The Dark Urge had). And the fact that the default Dark Urge is an albino dragonborn is very interesting, there were no dragonborn on Faerun or anywhere else on Toril before Bhaal's death during the Time of Troubles, they were still in Abeir until the Spellplague happened 15 years later after Baldur's Gate 2 Throne of Bhaal.

Only the quick-save/quick-load keys are more powerful in BG3 than Withers/Jergal. I've said it before and I'll say it again: For a God of Death (and compared to his three successors), Withers/Jergal is quite the pleasant character in this game. His whole dialogue sequence with Arabella felt ... heart-warming. Kinda like what you would wish your own perfect authority figure or role-model (grandfather/father/mother) would've been like with you when you were a child.

Something tells me he aims to either reclaim his godhood, or become a different god instead. He clearly has a plan for the adventurers whatever that may be, and he openly loathes Murkul, Bane as well as Bhaal by abusing their power.

So the Dark Urge can be redeemed. Good to knw

is withers jergal, or an avatar of jergal? Like what that scythe guy was to myrkul

I think that there was another motivating factor behind "Withers" reviving the Bhaalspawn. A small twinge of guilt, perhaps? For abandoning his divine office out of mere boredom and dividing it amongst 3 undeserving maggots, who would go on to abuse their newfound status to commit all manner of atrocities against the mortal races? Perhaps he just wanted to ease his consciensce just a little bit? Although, that is just a biased and unfounded theory.

The lack of reaction from your companions is strange. Oh well she dead, so where do you all want to have lunch.

I guess they ran for Jergal - I mean, a literal god just unalived their friend without even having the decency to come on over himself, what were they suppose to do, piss in the blood puddle?

what I would give to experience this masterpiece for the first time all over again

I like BG3 Granny Jaheira so much more than BG1 and 2's versions.

Just who is withers I feel he's like the realms caretaker Not directly interfering but helps just enough to keep the balance

Do you know Jergal...

So I’ve spoiled this all for myself and I’m wondering. Does the BG1 protagonist make an appearance? Are they talked about at all?

I do recall seeing "Gorion's Ward" mentioned in a book in Jergal's temple near the start. I think Jaheira mentions meeting other bhaalspawn, too. I haven't beaten the game yet though. Honestly I hope they just leave the identity of Charname vague like the Elder Scrolls does for previous protagonists rather than some enforced "canon" version. Honestly I'm a little surprised they didn't add an option for importing a save file.

@@ENCHANTMEN_ Sadly, WotC demanded that the horrendous novels with ""Abdel Adrian"" be the official canon that Larian had to work with for the game. Hence also why Viconia is now a cartoon villain.

Wyll mentions at some point that he met Gorion’s Ward, and there’s Gorion’s mausoleum in the graveyard in the city. Those are the closest you’ll get to it, alongside Sarevok, Minsc and Jaheira, afaik. The ward doesn’t seem to get a specific name in BG3

they are talked about/referenced a few times, but no appearance no.

I got this scene a few days ago. I wonder what happens if you didn't release WIthers before.

I um, killed orpheaus and took control of the brain and took over the world. In his name

Is the dark urge thing the most “canon” character? It seems like there is so much more content for it now

Originally it was the only custom character but they added the "Tav" option because they were worried people would complain about being forced to play the dark urge.

Im surprised Jergal is not evil despite originaly holding all the portofolos of the dead three, Strife, Murder, Death, In the game he behaves as lawful good, not lawful nutral as its stated in the source material. Its also stated that he now serves Kelemvor yet somehow retains more authority then Kelemvor. As Kelemvor would have judged the bhaal spawn differently by smashing her soul into the wall of the faithless as he did in Never Winter Nights 2. Supersceeding a gods judgment by no longer being a god him self is fantastic and scarry at the same time. I wonder where he gets his authority and power from, as he is no longer recieving faith to sustain his godhood, staus and power.

6:17 WITHERS SAYS 'YOU' INSTEAD OF 'THEE'??? 😮😮😮

Bhaal kinda sounds like Garrett from witcher

@AlcheaNemesis I have one issue with the claim that Larian are faithful to D&D 5th to a fault. I agree they should have told WOTC what to go do with themselves, like Bioware did before them. Bioware followed the rule set of the time their D&D games were developed, but they told WOTC to shove their 'lore.' However, Larian portrays the 'Dead' Three as being gods in BG3, but they are not gods in 5th edition lore. So they obviously could, and therefore should have followed the BG's series game lore for the character cameos. Larian really did Viconia and Sarevok dirty, to name just two.
