It's not the predefined class because nothing besides the background is predefined for the Dark Urge...Gale is a pre-defined wizard...you can only start as wizard, you can respec later but you can't change that at character creation and his entire story hinges on being a Wizard. That's not what's happening with the Dark Urge...some of the promotional material and website showed or mentioned a Sorcerer Dark Urge but nothing beyond the background is pre-defined in terms of class, subclass, race, or subrace and there is no declared canon for this game either as of yet. If a canon is ever even declared for BG3 at all, which I don't think there will ever be, we don't even know if the Dark Urge will be considered the canon player origin at all which would make it all meaningless.
