Astarion prowled the night as a vampire spawn for two centuries in Baldur's Gate, enslaved by a sadistic vampire lord named Cazador Szarr until he was abducted by mind flayers on the Nautiloid. Although living on borrowed time due to being tadpoled, he can now walk in sunlight, wade through water, enter homes uninvited, and resist his master's compulsions. Astarion has a chance at a new life where he can make his own choices and possibly gain the freedom and safety he previously dared not even hope for. Astarion is a high elven vampire spawn who appears to be in his late 30s despite being centuries old. He is approximately 5'11" tall, with a medium build and sharp facial features. He has pale skin and red eyes, as well as smile lines and a faint mark on his left cheek. Jaw-length silver hair curls around his long, pointed ears. He has a bite-mark scar on the right side of his neck from when his old master, Cazador Szarr Cazador Szarr, turned him into a vampire, as well as a myriad of scars carved by Cazador covering most of his back. Astarion is very interested in his overall appearance. Favouring extravagant attire, he wears an elaborate doublet, leather chaps and embroidered leather shoes when recruited. He takes meticulous care to maintain and repair the clothing that he owns. He is very mindful of his hygiene, especially his hair, nails, skin, and clothing He is charming, eloquent, cunning, witty, and practical. But, having felt abandoned by the world and its heroes for centuries, Astarion can also be bitter, self-centred, manipulative, distrustful, prejudiced, and vengeful. Driven by fear, Astarion believes the world is divided into a predator-or-prey binary, and as such follows a "dog-eat-dog" philosophy, where his goal is to be on top to avoid subjugation. His main priorities initially are his own autonomy, safety, and revenge on Cazador, though he also prioritises the party's safety as a whole as a means to these ends. He is largely apathetic toward the feelings of others and typically has little interest in helping for no reward, as he feels that if he did not get help (literally for centuries), no one else should. He is one of the companions you can have in the game baulders gate 3. The other companions are at the camp as well: gale, karlach, wyll, lae'zel, halsin, shadowheart. Asterion is a magistrate in baulders gate.
