One of the companions you can recruit in Baldur’s Gate 3 is Astarion, a Rogue vampire spawn who can be found early on at the beginning of Act 1.
Astarion is a vampire spawn and charismatic addition to your band of companions, and you have the flexibility to recruit and have him in your active party or keep him in the camp. He will be ready to join your adventures whenever you wish. This very charismatic and handsome Rogue hides a dark past and perhaps even darker desires. This short guide explains all steps to recruit and find Astarion in Baldur’s Gate 3.
How to Recruit Astarion and Where to Find Him in Baldur’s Gate 3?
To recruit Astarion, you must find him near the Nautiloid ship crash, where you land on the Ravaged Beach. You’ll gain access to this companion early in the game just after the prologue. When you locate and approach him, he will be calling for help, but it’s a trap! Upon your approach, Astarion will attempt to slit your throat. Yet, then, the mind-flayer parasites will connect your brain with Astarion’s and that will change everything. He will let you go, apologize and agree to join your party. However, it’ll only convince him that you are on the same team, seeking help, but a journey to gain his trust and friendship has only just begun.
