I would like to give him the portrait from Fevras. The cloak is ok and practical, but with a Durge that seeks to reject the urge, it would be a "tainted" present. The portrait is specific, so Astarion can see himself. Or even better if you were to find a portrait from before he turned to spawn so he (and we) could know what his eyes looked like. And the color.
The more gifts the better. I always play Durges so naturally I miss an opportunity to give him something...bloodier.

And which personal quest, for that matter. After all, SH has one abandoned Shar temple in the underdark, another huge temple plus mandatory trials in act 2, and another temple and quest in act 3. I would have been nice to have all that with all companions, but especially with Astarion.
I like that Astarion is not connected to the plot. Sometimes I just grab him, leave or kill everyone else, and we go on an adventure to solve our personal problems and kinda accidentally save the city in the process. Or would save the city, if I ever got through Act 3. On the other hand, having the Upper City and some quest for him to charm and lie his way through would have been sweet.

Really? Well, maybe that's a good thing. Less shitty writing for him.
