:* If Astarion ascends - the player has the option to become a vampire spawn. Dialogue selection will determine if the suggestion to become a vampire comes from Astarion or the player. During this conversation, multiple dialogue options can lead to Astarion telling the player he loves them (4 variations). Note that as with other scenes, Astarion’s tone and response will generally match the tone of the dialogue option selected by the player. Astarion will not continue the relationship with a player who does not want to become a vampire, but he will remain in the party. If the player does not long-rest and instead goes straight to the end-game fight, the relationship continues with Astarion and a mortal player. If the player initially consents to becoming his vampire spawn, the player can then consent to sleeping with him again or not - neither option impacts Astarion's decision to turn the player into a vampire (this offer can come from Astarion or the player depending on dialogue selection). During the romance scene, Astarion bites the player. Immediately following the romance scene, another scene occurs where he turns the player into his spawn. He will ask the player to kneel, you can consent to kneeling, refuse to consent and say no, or kick him in the balls. Note: If the player assaults the companion by kicking him in the balls, he will permanently leave the party. If the player says no to kneeling a second time, the relationship will end. If the player continues to consent to becoming his vampire spawn, Astarion will bite the player a second time; the player can ask for a gentle (on the hand) or rough (hand around the neck) option. Either way, Astarion will thank the player for giving him everything and bite the player a third and final time. After awakening, the player will have received the [[Vampire Bite|Bite]] ability which provides the [[Happy (Condition)|Happy]] condition. The location of the romance scene depends on the location of the player’s camp (e.g., if the player’s camp is in [[Elfsong Tavern]], the romance and turning scene takes place in a private room there). | :* If Astarion ascends - the player has the option to become a vampire spawn.

:** If playing Karlach origin, there is no romance scene and Astarion is not able to turn her into a spawn. Some players may find the language used by Astarion towards Karlach to be upsetting {{note|Astarion will yell at Karlach when he is not able to turn her. During their next conversation, depending on dialogue selections, Astarion may say to Karlach: "You're defective. Broken. Doomed."}}. | :** If playing Karlach origin, there is no romance scene and Astarion is not able to turn her into a spawn.

:* If Astarion did not go through with the Rite and remains a vampire spawn, he will tell the player he would like to show them something outside the city, and take them to see his grave in the [[Lower City]] [[Graveyard]] . There is no option to break-up during this interaction. After the initial discussion, the player can consent to sleeping with Astarion or not - neither option impacts the relationship. The player must consent to sleeping with Astarion in order to have Astarion say he loves the player. The romance scene always occurs outdoors on his grave. | :* If Astarion did not go through with the Rite and remains a vampire spawn, he will tell the player he would like to show them something outside the city, and take them to see his grave in the [[Lower City]] [[Graveyard]] {{note|In general walkthrough the player cannot find Astarion's tombstone at the cemetery, but judging by other cutscene landmarks it seems to be located under the huge willow, next to Karlach's parents' graves.
