Vampire question

[Snake]

I normally play human for that makes me more immersed, but to try not be boring is there a vampire human class? or are they all like astarion. Btw I’m a newb to this game so any info would be helpful

Astarion is a vampire spawn, so basically whilst he does have some vampiric gifts, he’s not a full fledged vampire. Cazador (his owner/master/sire/bedroom daddy) is a full fledged vampire whom you will get to meet in the game. There has also been mention that you could end up being turned into a vampire too, so have to wait and see how this comes about, Failing that, there will be mods for this game that will allow you to play as a vampire I’m sure.

Which means nothing if the game doesn't react to it.

Then play as a human and see if cazador will turn you I guess,

The pointed ears are due to the race I think…as I don’t remember anything in the DnD rules that says Spock ears are a byproduct of vampirism. I suspect without mods, the being turned into a vampire is something that will happen if you go down the romancing Astarion route as so far there has been two instances of him biting you..one when trying to sleep and the other when you hook up after the grove situation is resolved.

I could be wrong of course…maybe cazador will agree to turn you if you hand over his wayward property. Who knows…but it’s almost time to find out. Roll on Thursday…

And no…you don’t need to be male to romance Astarion. As with all companions, they can be romanced whether you are male or female, plus the voice actor said Astarion is pan sexual. That being said.. even if he wasn’t, he’s been forced to romance anything and everything regardless of his personal taste or preference, if it was beautiful enough to appeal to his owner. So after 200 yrs of having to do that, I guess you’d just get used to feigning interest in anything, if it got you what you wanted after all. Which is what I suspect is going on initially with Astarion, when he realises you have a tadpole in your head too, and he knows he needs you and your group in order to get control of it.

He’ll be your ally, friend, lover whatever until he gets what he wants and then depending on your choices and reactions, he’ll either betray you when you no longer serve a purpose, or he’ll have grown genuinely attached and drop the facade so you can see the real Astarion.
