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

Can you be a “good” Githyanki? Like do they always have to be lawful evil, evil in some other way, or neutral? Sure, a githyanki can be the Durge. But what are the odds, from a roleplay perspective, that a githyanki would be a RESISTING urge, rather than someone who embraces the urge?

I guess I’m thinking of that poor kid in the creche who kept getting beaten because he was “weak” and compassionate. He seems so unique. How did he end up like that and how would another githyanki end up like that?

And I don’t think that Lae’zel is truly evil. Just, very principled, occasionally impolite, and obnoxiously strong-willed. Or would I just need to play another race like a halfling if I wanted to do a resisting Durge?
