An advertisement for the cards is currently being used as a source for Astarion's status as a noble (the ad referring to him as a Noble High Elf), but I find it very unlikely devs were consulted for it and the description sounds like fairly average marketing lingo formulated through a google search on the character (the canonicity of the cards themselves are debatable- they've depicted Astarion biting Gale, which is unlikely to be pleasant for him as depicted, and Wyll and Astarion in an intimate relationship, amongst other inconsistencies that I doubt we'd want on the wiki)

We know the og batch of cards was made during EA but I can't say that for the newer ones, considering some of them depict some (albeit modified) versions of possible events ingame. [[Special:Contributions/84.122.126.28|84.122.126.28]] 21:16, 8 January 2025 (CET)

:Thank you for creating the discussion!
:To quote Astarions VA on the subject:
:<code>"he was a magistrate, he's a High Elf, he's of noble class" </code>- [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikUV7hletb0 YouTube Interview]
:If we look into how he was described ingame during EA with the background "Noble", and how he is described now, a High Elf Magistrate - which is basically a "Judge" - I'd say that assuming that he is a noble isnt far fetched.
:As the cards themselves, they have been endorsed by Larian & BG3 MTG card packs are included in the collectors edition for bg3.
:My words arent gospel, discussions about this topic are encouraged!
