I'd find it more interesting if Cazador attempts to turn the Player Character into another vampire spawn. It could be an interesting hostage situation. One where your actions towards Astarion, and how much he trusts you, could decide your fate.

So, you could have an incapcitated PC and Astarion having to "choose" (based on approval and player choices) whether to

do the last thing he would expect himself of being able to do and attack Cazador by himself or,
do what he's always done in past and turn his back on Cazadors next victim or,
cave in completely, accept Cazadors dominance and kill the player character.

In the first case the PC is unharmed and Astarion is free of Cazador, and maybe even a full vampire. Could be a persuasion check to encourage/discourage, or based on past decisions.
In the second case the PC is turned and the rest of the game continues with the PC "working for" Cazador (could unlock different solutions to situations?). Pass a persuasion check to choose to keep Astarion with the group or not.
In the third case, PC is rezzed by a deus ex machina (rescued by KoaToa/Zhentarim etc or Withers...) and continues the quest. Astarion has left the party and is back to being Cazador's slave.

Edit: Ha! I think Rag has the most likely result!
