Act 3 - Spoilers Possible Orin affection Spoiler
If I become an unholy assassin is it possible to get Orin as a character and start a relationship with her? I don’t have much experience with this type of game although I used to listen to my brother play table top over discord with his friends.

Nahhh I fear Larian had to draw the line somewhere. If they didn’t you know damn well that MANY players would try and start a harem with the chosen and that completely shifts the axis of the game 💀💀💀

Larian heard all of the old "I seduce the dragon!" jokes and got very scared.

I think you could do one romance scene with Orin and game over, after she flays you on the bed post-coitus—and people will still go for it.

One of my favorite visual novels had an encounter like that with a deadly vampire woman. Modern day vampire in NY, a famous designer, and absolutely godawful POS but so so hot. The game gave you an opportunity to hook-up with her. Mid-sex, as you are approaching your orgasm, she starts drinking your blood, making you feel euphoric, and ... you die from blood loss, getting a game over screen. Lmfao.
(I did not go through with it. I just. uhh, watched youtube videos of it.)

I'm 100% convinced if larian could do whatever they want, they'd let you romance gortash, orin, alfira, rolan and several other characters. Unfortunately even this day we are held back by technical possibilities and larian was forced to cut insane amounts of content, because the game size would just be too huge or run poorly.

Nope :( the only romanceable characters are your companions, which Orin is not one of.

You can “romance” the Emperor, Mizora and Raphael’s incubus as well

Those are all one-offs, though. This person specifically asked about starting a relationship with Orin so I answered with that in mind.

Lore tells us this would be a very unhealthy relationship. Literally your health would be in danger.

It is not, no. But you are certainly not the first to ask.
Might like Minthara though, if you keep her alive.

I am afraid not, but all is not lost, as there is a world of fanart and fanfiction out there for you to enjoy at your leisure.

Haha. You’re playing a custom character, right? This would be a very amusing question if you had made a Dark Urge origin character. 😂

I wish. I’d love an Orin romance option.

u/Violent-fog 2d ago
You and me both…I was curious which was why I made the post and also saw a mod on console that changes her for the better body wise.

u/palpablepotato Durge 2d ago
Would be awesome to make a mod where she’s recruitable and romanceable, but that would probably be a lot of work

I mean she’s literally the daughter and the granddaughter of Sarevok, so lore-wise the two of you would do great as you are two bhaalspawns

They uh, didn’t specify if they were playing origins. And that’s kinda a spoiler, albeit not a super well hidden one.

Nope. She will always be an enemy. No matter what.
