>>4369742While my Durge's character arc might be a slowburn, I don't intend for them to go murder hobo. While they might kill a few innocents here and there, she's going to be smart about her bloodlust.
And she'll save the grove, for both meta and RP reasons. The reason being, of course, that you loose out on too much content by wiping out the grove. As for the RP reason, well, while I want her arc towards goodness to be a slow burner, I want to give it solid foundations and I think saving the grove is a pretty good one.
Ah, Minthara. While she's a popular choice for a Durge romance, I'll save her for Tav*. For the reasons you said and others, I don't think she would fit for the arc I want my Durge to go through. Heck, depending on the direction the wind is blowing, she might kill her outright for calling her a "Fairy".
I think my Durge will romance Shadowheart, as there's some interesting parallels between her and Durge. And her own redemption arc and good ending complements well with the Durge's
*How is she with a Good (LG or GG) Tav? Or at least a Neutral/Anti-hero Tav?
