The cool thing with fan art is to draw what you couldn't do in the game: a big hug during a very emotional scene.

AU Astarion admiring his new mirror image 🩸🖤

In this picture tav catches him talking to his cursed mirror

Sadly he is a vampire spawn of Cazador in the investigator AU too but instead of the tadpole, he gets a demonic entity attached to him. Similar to the tadpole he is able to walk in the sun, with the downside of losing consciousness when it takes over his physical body. He got possessed after finding a cursed mirror during his hunt for Cazador. Thanks to the entity Astarion lost consciousness once more and fled from Cazador's castle. They do not know about the ascending ritual yet, but maybe it isn't for the best if a possessed vampire spawn ascends- What his group members don't know, just like with the tadpole Astarion likes to keep the entity inside of him thanks to the power it's granting him 😶

Flirtation Failure

Upon reaching the stream, Astarion dropped his pack unceremoniously and knelt by the water's edge. For a moment, he stared uncertainly at the water, feeling a flicker of fear.

There was no way to tell if the effects of running water had disappeared along with his vulnerability to sunlight - not without physically finding out the hard way.

A quick glance around the clearing assured him that no one was watching, so he cautiously lowered his hand, hesitating ever so slightly before dipping the tips of his fingers below the surface.

Instead of the searing pain he had come to expect, the coolness of the water against his skin was an immediate relief. Smiling at this new and welcome discovery, he splashed some onto his face, washing away the grime and sweat.

He glanced over at Gale, who had collapsed onto a patch of grass, his chest heaving as he tried to catch his breath. Shadowheart was already filling her canteen, her expression thoughtful as she gazed into the distance.

Ishta knelt beside the stream as well, her hands cupping the water as she drank deeply. She seemed to radiate a calm strength, a stark contrast to the rest of the group, who looked utterly spent.

Astarion watched her for a moment longer before turning his attention back to the stream, letting the soothing sound of the water help him relax. Fortunately, the agitation on the stream's surface and the sunlight reflecting off it hid his own lack of a reflection effectively.

If he had been alone, he would have stripped off then and there and laid in the crystal-clear waters, allowing it to wash away all his fatigue. Instead, he settled for pulling off his boots and rolling up his trousers, dangling his bare feet over the edge of the stream bank.

Relishing the feel of the swift current against his legs, Astarion lay back on the grass and stared up at the sky.

With the warmth of the afternoon sun on his face and the scent of wildflowers and pine sap in his nostrils, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, letting it out in a sigh of contentment.

Despite the dangers that still lay ahead and the ever-present hunger, Astarion couldn't recall a time when he had felt this happy - and it scared him.

The fear that it could all end at any moment, that Cazador could have people out looking for him, brought the familiar knot into his stomach, and he sat up abruptly. Chiding himself for his complacency, he quickly donned his boots and stood up, looking around at his companions thoughtfully.

So far, he hadn't made any headway in charming the Ranger, but maybe one of the others might be more receptive?

He spied Shadowheart sitting a little away from the rest of the group, busy sharpening a dagger, and casually walked over to join her. She looked up curiously at his approach but said nothing as he sat down on the grass a little to one side of her.

Giving her a disarming smile, he nodded in the direction of Ishta and remarked, "Our leader is quite the impressive athlete, wouldn't you say? I can't remember the last time I had to compete with such levels of endurance. How about you?"

"What do you want, Astarion?" Shadowheart asked with a slight hint of impatience in her voice, her eyes narrowing slightly.

Undeterred, he shrugged nonchalantly. "Simply making conversation. I realize I may not have given a very good first impression back at the crash site, and hoped I might have the opportunity to remedy that."

"Your aid in clearing out that crypt was all the remedy needed to make up for your first impression," she said, giving a nod of thanks before turning her attention back to her dagger.

Encouraged by her statement, Astarion leaned closer, his voice dripping with charm. "Shadowheart... Such a grim name for such a beautiful flower," he drawled.

She looked up sharply and gave him a cold stare. "I heard you mumbling that line to yourself earlier - it needs more work," she stated bluntly and turned away, clearly dismissing him.

From a few steps away, Lae'zel observed the exchange, her lips curling slightly into a smirk. "Oh, but do keep calling her 'flower.' She'll love that," she remarked, her tone dripping with sarcasm.

"I was wondering when he'd try it out on me," Shadowheart said, addressing Lae'zel as if Astarion didn't exist.

Lae'zel's smirk turned into a challenging stare that made him squirm slightly. "Fortunate for his tongue he didn't say it to me," she declared, her eyes glinting dangerously.

Astarion glanced between the two women, their eyes fixed on him with a mixture of cold amusement and irritation. Feeling his confidence wane under their scrutiny, he stood up, forced a quick, graceful bow, and retreated hastily toward where Ishta was resting.

He found her sitting by a mossy bank, her eyes closed, seemingly at peace. He dropped down opposite her and leaned back against the soft cushion of moss, letting out a defeated sigh. His pride was bruised, and irritation simmered just beneath the surface.

Ishta's mouth twitched as she sensed his presence. She opened one eye, a cheeky grin forming on her lips. "Not quite the marks you are used to, eh?" she remarked, her voice laced with wry amusement.

Astarion glared at her, his annoyance clear as he realized she must have heard the entire exchange. "I may be a little off my game," he admitted reluctantly, closing his eyes as if to shut out his embarrassment.

Ishta let out a loud snort. "A little?"

Astarion opened his eyes again, glaring at her more intensely, which only prompted her to laugh, the sound clear and bell-like, echoing into the clearing. It annoyed him, but he couldn't deny a growing warmth in his chest as he watched her.

"Tell you what," Ishta said, her eyes gleaming mischievously. "Why don't you practice your best lines on me, and I'll let you know which ones make me cringe and which ones make me want to stab you."

"Oh, piss off!" he retorted testily, though a reluctant smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. Her laughter echoed again, and this time, he allowed himself to enjoy it. He realized, with a mix of surprise and reluctance, that he might actually be starting to like this arrogant golden elf.

Astarion leaned back, watching Ishta's playful grin. Despite his initial irritation, he felt a connection forming that was different from his usual flirtations. Perhaps, he mused, the best way to make progress with her is to stop trying so hard.

"I'll say one thing for you though, you've managed to temporarily unite those two over their shared distaste for your pickup lines," she chuckled, nodding over at Lae'zel and Shadowheart, who seemed to be tolerating each other's presence a little better after his swift exit.

"Hmm... I don't envy your task of keeping them from each other's throats," he commented with a sly smile at Ishta.

She grimaced and leaned back with a sigh. "As if we didn't already have enough problems to deal with," she muttered bitterly.

"Well, if it comes to blows... my money is on the Gith."

Ishta gave him a disapproving frown, then chuckled mirthlessly. "I'll take that bet... just don't try anything to encourage a fight, will you?" she warned, with a twinkle in her eye.

Astarion gasped theatrically and put his hand to his chest. "Ishta! I would never do something so underhanded. What do you take me for?" he protested innocently.

"A sneaky, conniving, opportunistic son of a bitch," Ishta replied, grinning broadly at him.

"Ha!"

Fortunately, Ishta quite likes that about him. She prefers those who are honest about being dishonest, to those who profess to be saints while stabbing you in the back. Check out my Fanfic of these two scamps in the links below.

Astarion is my favorite character from BG3 for so many reasons, but mainly for the fact that he's a "comfort character." This game has been a blessing creatively, emotionally, and mentally.

Kiss practice (+ drawing on phone practice)

[little-lyco]

I started playing Baldur's Gate 3 earlier this month and it's now my favorite game ever, and Astarion - as for a lot of people apparently - my favorite character. A fan art wave is coming ; I hope to have the time to draw every one of my ideas before I get back too fast on my comic ~

[nessylunacreations]

Hey there! My name is Nessy! I am a content creator/video editor who enjoys making edits of Levi Ackerman from AoT and Astarion Ancunin from BG3. I'm moving over here to Tumblr and other platforms because Tiktok keeps flagging my content for some reason...and I'm sick of it.

Anyway this is a gmv I did of my Durge Renata PT who is romancing Astarion from BG3. (Baldur's Gate 3.) Apparently the slight blood and vampire fangs from the filter I used briefly was too much for Tiktok 🙃😒🙄. Anyway I hope people enjoy it here!

(just to protect myself cw/tw: 18+; mild blood and vampire fangs oh my)!

Enjoy! I'll put up a master list soon!

My love letter to Larian Studios.

It is difficult to put into words how utterly captivating this journey has been, no matter how many times I try. I thought I bought a game in August 2023, and I could not have been more wrong. Baldur’s Gate 3 is an experience.

Millions of people from around the globe – whether they were familiar with the Forgotten Realms or not; whether they had ever played an RPG or not – have been struck by this phenomenal story for reasons that are personal to each and every player. We answered the call, we fell in love, we learned, we laughed, we cried, we united, we created – and we continue to do so nine months later.

The enormous freedoms we are granted upon crash-landing along the River Chionthar allow for a stunning diversity of experiences. We all enjoy different games and stories for different reasons – and in the expanse of Baldur’s Gate 3, we are the director of our own stories. This freedom has ignited a community of fans with incredible creativity, kindness, motivation, and talent that delight and inspire me every day.

We can feel the love and devotion that has been poured into development. This is a game, but calling it such seems so reductive; it is art created by artists.

It feels ridiculous to say that BG3 has changed my life, but it has. Taking this gift, admiring it from every angle, and sharing my feelings with other fans has been an uplifting adventure all its own. And I really needed it. Making my silly little edits on my silly little fan account has brought me indescribable joy and carried me through several rough patches this year. I have connected with hundreds of beautiful, like-minded people for whom I have an overwhelming abundance of love. Most of these connections won’t last forever, and neither will these memories, but what will last is knowing that I feel all warm and fuzzy.

And I am not alone in saying that I have been deeply moved by this adventure. Whatever I write here is echoed a thousandfold from across oceans and mountains.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
