Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Story & Character Discussion The romance with Astarion pulls you over to the "dark side".

Yes, they are flirting with each other because her "ROAR" is meant to be funny. I like that she was still able to chose to offer him blood, this makes it seem very relaxed and almost everyday. But he shouldn't get the idea, that the tiny bat should challenge the Slayer to a duel.

I will only have Astarion, Minthara and Shadowheart in my current group. Shadowheart is to become a dark justiciar. I then killed the rest of the companions. As I mentioned, I'm currently looking for the most possible evil way through the game, without losing too much story and without killing everyone. Basically training for Patch 7 and testing out a few things.:) I hate raiding the grove, but just knocking out Minthara is too easy. So I let her attack the grove, betray her and as a Drow sister, I knock her out after the fight. Killing defenseless Tieflings isn't bad enough for my Durge.
I try to do most of the fights with Astarion alone, the other companions I have with me more for RP reasons or if something goes completely wrong. The most fun I had with Astarion, when he got caught by stealing from Father Carrion and it totally escalated. We had to use every dirty trick. I'm always stealing from everyone and stealing everything and I make pretty much every bad decision, Drow answers can get you into trouble very quickly.
