📋 About This Mod

What is this mod?

This mod adds a little more amnesia to your Dark Urge by removing the Baldurian tag and any associated lines that come with the tag.

Only applies:

  • []to new games[/]

    []if your Dark Urge is still level 1[/]

When the tag will be added back are under the spoiler, if you have not yet played the Dark Urge, please do not read.

  • The Baldurian tag will be added back during Act 3, if specific moments are met such as: []Did Gortash Ceremony where he tells the Dark Urge who they were[/]

    []or Helsik reveals[/]

    Rebuilt this mod in BG3 Toolkit which means I also built it with Osiris meaning it is no longer dependent on Script Extender. Due to now being done in Osiris this mod should be possible to be used by Mac users as well. Big thank you to NellsRelo for making this previously possible however, as this mod would not have existed previously without the Tag Framework.

    Thanks to a friend pointing this out, this does not effect scenes directly tied to the Dark Urge tag as that is a separate tag, such as Dark Urge scenes based on Baldurs Gate as those are activated via the Dark Urge tag not the Baldurian tag.

    Thank you to:

    My friend who gave me the idea

    KittHaven for being okay with me ending in Not Baldurian too even though I went for a different name in the end <3

    Ariefel for helping me with what to use in my IF statements

    NellsRelo for Tag Framework plus the help with making this work.

    To ShinyHobo for their BG3 Modders Multitool

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This mod removes the Baldurian tag from the Dark Urge origin in Baldur's Gate 3, along with associated dialogue lines, to enhance the amnesia narrative. It's a small, focused tweak for players who want a more mysterious Dark Urge experience. With 221 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but appreciated addition.

✨ Key Features

Removes the Baldurian tag from the Dark Urge origin.
Removes dialogue lines associated with the Baldurian tag.
Enhances the amnesia roleplay by making the Dark Urge less tied to Baldur's Gate.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 221 endorsements and over 73k downloads.
  • Actively maintained (last updated April 2025).
  • Fills a specific roleplay niche for Dark Urge players who want deeper amnesia.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects the Baldurian tag—doesn't add new content or quests.
  • May conflict with other mods that alter Dark Urge tags or dialogue.
  • Requires mod manager for installation, which might be a hurdle for beginners.
🎯 Is This For You?
For roleplayers who want the Dark Urge to feel more mysterious and disconnected from Baldur's Gate. Also for players who've already played the origin and want a fresh take. Skip if you're fine with the default Dark Urge backstory or want gameplay changes—this is purely narrative.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or BG3 Mod Manager to install and manage load order.
  • Check for compatibility with other Dark Urge mods to avoid tag conflicts.
  • Start a new playthrough to see the full effect, as existing saves may not reflect the changes.
