Adorable! He's a very determined little guy, and a real perfectionist for paying such attention to detail, particularly the symmetry of the claws. Yes, kids grow so fast, and it's important to respect little Lord's need to show off his unrivaled awesomeness (he's really, really big now, and he'll come into your arms when he wants to and when no one else can see :)), so Daddy will get a double dose of hugs today! <3

Yurgir is easier to kill if you approach him from behind, you're in a much better position, and there's no dialog with him (you have a great opportunity to strike first, and if Yurgir sees you, he'll go into combat mode without dialog). I tried to pull this off with him at first, but since I didn't have that need, I reloaded and approached him from below so I could attack him through dialog for the sake of the story and get Astarion's approval. When Yurgir is fighting in an advantageous position (after the dialog), the fight with him will be more difficult. If you have Beholder inside the flask, it will help to keep his pile of merregons occupied for a while to focus your attack on Yurgir and kill him faster.

Luckily, with Shadowheart, all I had to do was drink a bit of wine. If you end the romance with Shadowheart because of Astarion, she's very understanding and happy that you're there for Astarion.




She responds so wisely and understandingly, Shadowheart shows the best sides of her character in this scene. Definitely a plus to the perception of her character. She is the only observant and attentive person in the group, in my opinion, in my game Shadowheart is the only companion who notices my connection to Astarion in the first act. She says of Astarion, “there's something fragile beneath the façade”.

Astarion Junior dreams so intensely of his world domination and how toys are brought to him from everywhere as offerings that Mommy has to catch him so that he doesn't slip off his throne. Sceleritas is still curled up on the floor and scratches behind his ear with his foot. She falls asleep just as peacefully. When Astarion finds his family sleeping so peacefully, he first puts Junior in his bed, then carries his eternal love to bed and even puts Sceleritas in his fruit crate bed... while briefly considering whether he should brick up the hole in the wall...

My heart sinks for such adorable fluffy babies! Gotta caress each and every one of these cuties as gently and carefully as possible... <3

Astarion has become a very caring and responsible head of the family. But sometimes he chuckles under his nose when he learns about another prank of his hyperactive son, and he himself is itching to do a little mischief... wink And when the Sun Lord does a prank, the prank can be of appropriate magnitude.

But she always lets my Astarion catch her. He can't get any closer to her. It's always a pleasure for me to empty her pockets.

Haha, Astarion is adorable! His outrage at the moment his absent-minded victim disappeared is so cute! Korrilla is such a funny loser in that situation, I'll have to replicate that in my game, lol. It's a bit poor in her pockets though, either Raphi pays the staff as well as they work or vice versa. smile

Business Lord. He's practicing. Preparing for the future, when you and he will be late for a Council meeting of the United Vampire Clans Organization in the future.

Astarion grumbles with his trademark black irony. Haha, that's nice, thanks, I didn't have that line. He has a strange attitude towards this girl - Astarion approves when you help her, but also grumbles when she comes to your camp. But there's no disapproval if you leave her - just grumbling.

Orin, besides Halsin, can also kidnap Gale and Lae'zel (just not Lae, Orin, if you want a new rattle so badly, okay, next time it'll be Gale, but you won't get more variety from me, go to another store! *jokingly). If you let her kidnap Yenna, it's gonna be sad--

Either Yenna or her kitty will die.

And it's not Ascended Astarion that's so mean. ; )

Looking at the expression on Astarion's face as he looks at the girl afterward, it seems like he was grumbling more out of some sort of principle. Yes, Yenna comes to you in Rivington, Astarion can't make it to Ascension by that point. About the meanness - if you act strictly in accordance with Astarion's approvals in Act 1, when he doesn't know about any Ascension yet, and then do the same with the Ascended Lord's approvals in Act 3 (if anything, taking control of the Brain has no approvals/disapprovals, Astarion smiles at you when you decide to subdue Brain, and is also very happy to get rid of the tadpole if you decide to destroy Brain), and then compare and contrast the results of your actions in terms of “evil”, the Ascended Astarion is definitely calmer and kinder.

I think I'll do Bard/Paladin again, it was so much fun, I'll be an oathbreaker by Lae'zel's cage at the latest. Can I break my oath on the ship? ... I have to try that. smile

Can mercenaries be turned? I wonder, I've just always ignored mercenaries completely, do they even say anything at all?

Wow, where did you meet him? Interesting character.
