  • I was trying to get away from Astarion's terrifying weapon. Alas, I failed the strength check. See what happens...

      That got fixed in the newest patch. Shadowheart tries to stop him now. Oddly enough, if Tav does something stupid like offer her or his brain to a kind flayer it's Astarion who shouts him or her to stop.

      To be fair, if you have a romantic night with Astarion, she watches that too. Maybe she just likes watching
      Or maybe she just likes watching folks wrestle, no matter the reason. Perhaps she and Gale had a bet going

    It's SO WEIRD to think that Astarion was well into his servitude when the Bhaalspawn saga occurred. I wonder what he thought of Bodhi and Jon Irenicus.

    • @user-xw5xo3bv1n
      @user-xw5xo3bv1n 2 года назад +19

      I don't think he thought of them much at all, because you see, Astarion lived in Baldur's Gate.
      Bodhi and Jon were living in Amn. That's to the south.
