Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Story Logic for a Githyanki Durge Paladin?

The title says it all. How would a Githyanki Dark Urge Paladin make sense within the logic of the game/story? I’m currently playing through as an elf cleric/bard resisting Durge, romancing Shadowheart, in balanced mode. I want to do something completely different after I finish this playthrough. Namely, playing as a Githyanki (still resisting) Durge paladin, romancing Lae’zel, in tactician mode.

Has anybody played this combination (or gith/paladin or gith/Durge combos) and how did you justify it storywise?

I don’t mind starting as a different class and then having a conversion of sorts. It’s what I did with my Durge cleric. Act 3 spoilers are okay since I’ve already played a decent portion of act 3 on my cleric/bard Durge run. Thanks!
