This mod was made to give a few new abilities to the Dark Urge Origin character to improve gameplay but not throw the gameplay out of balance and to be used in combination with the Dark Urge All Origins mod so that you can play any Origin character as the Dark Urge.

If you enjoy this mod, I have many others that are great to play with as well:


Dark Urge All Origins: (Updated Version of my Dark Urge Mod from 22 Sept 2023)

This mod gives the additional Dark Urge background for the origin character. So now you can play as the Origin storyline (Quest) and the Dark Urge Origin (Quest) on Astarion, Laezel, Wyll, Shadowheart, Gale or Karlach at the same time on one character.

thx for the change and Heads up!- and Shadow does an great Villian, till nmow, start act 2 it works very well. And it brings back some first Time feeling, which dialogue will present  inn the next Key Scene. Thx again:) - Alecthelm (March 9, 2024)


Vampire God Expanded: (Updated Version of my Vampire Mod from 22 Nov 2023)

Gives the ability to play as a Vampire with Dark Urge, Dark Urge Astarion or Custom Character. In addition, you can infect others with vampirism as the Main Character with that background. Those bitten will get Bloodless and it will go away on Long Rest, unless they bite someone to become a Full Vampire.

Me: *bites someone*
Enemy: *bites back*
Gale with fireball: So you choose death. - m3m3l0rd420 (March 2, 2024)


Powers of the Shadows: (Updated Version of my Play as a Shade mod from 22 Nov 2023)

Shades are (or were) normal humans, elves, etc... who through arcane magic merged with the shadow stuff of the Plane of Shadows. While they still appear as their original species and retain their abilities, they have grown in power by merging with the Plane of Shadows.

This merger with the Plane of Shadows has changed their essence, so that they are essentially undying, unless they meet with an unfortunate accident or are killed. Diseases have no effect upon them, and they can regenerate 1 hp/round.

Because of your heritage being a creature of the Plane of Shadows, you do not gain inspiration from this background. You are a creature made of the void and thus are not inspired by anything in this world.

I have this mod and love it.  - gaxx00 (May 20, 2024)


Demi-God Improved: (Updated Version of my Demi-God Mod from Sept 29, 2023)

This mod is a combination of the Demi-God Mod and Play as a Full Vampire and Play as Shade mod. Characters can start as a vampire and if they bite someone they can become a vampire if they feed while Bloodless,

Wow... It's great to play as a vampire, using the shadows and avoiding the sun add an interesting flavor to the game. I've been playing for a few hours (as a vampire) and everything seems to be working fine. Great mod, thank you very much! - Danioken (Feb 25, 2024)


Play as a Hulk with Barbarian Rage: (Updated Version of my Hulk Out Mod from 18 Oct 2023)

This mod gives any Barbarian the ability to become the a Hulk or She Hulk when they use Rage in combat. This only impacts characters that have Rage ability. "Play as She-Hulk" for female transformation and "Play as Hulk" for male transformation.

Thank you for this great mod. I've been really enjoying BG3 these days because of your idea. - 93969 (March 23, 2024)
