anghraineThe "should I play Shadowheart or my Dark Urge paladin Alexandra" dilemma has been resolved in an ... unfortunate way.
Spoilers for the Dark Urge BG3 arc around level 3:
I chose the Dark Urge instead of Custom for Alexandra to have a storyline while still being able to change my appearance + a bit of an edge to my paladin. Okay. I figured I'd just resist the urge, but it'd be interesting to have it.
Turns out this is only sometimes an option! I discovered this by waking from a long rest to find that I'd brutally murdered a friendly bard in the middle of camp. Um. I don't want to go around being railroaded into particularly nasty murders, actually! So either it's play my barely-started Shadowheart game as my main game, or reboot Alexandra as a fully custom character.
Hmmmmmm.
