Special thanks to the wonderfully supportive AA fandom & all of his dark consorts for the long, nerdy, discussions about Vampires in Baldur's Gate, the Forgotten Realms, D&D broadly, and actual vampire lore [not whatever Twilight is] throughout history! ily!
Song from the video is here:

Good or evil Astarion is always a fan favorite. Neil did such an amazing job voicing him😊
-
You did a great job putting all the info together. Also the choice of the soundtracks is just too perfect! I applause!
-
Love this! Finally someone has put almost all the Dark Kiss related info together in one video. I will be referring to this video if I ever end up in a discussion again regarding the topic, A-Astarion's ending deserves more appreciation.😌 Also the way he says "hmmgh...she's a vampire" at the end is so funny (and kinda hot).😂👀
-
You did such an amazing job compiling everything and linking it all together! Van Richten's guide is a personal favorite for my own DnD campaigns and lore nerdery 🥰 I can't wait to ascend him again in my current playthrough 🥹

Who needs heros when you can have the villain 😈 this is great. Thank you for the side by sides with text. Very compelling.
-
Methinks all this is a little too on the nose for the devs to be oblivious to what they were protraying. 😮 Thank you for the wonderful compilation. 💝
-
Excellent work! ❣💫❤🔥

It's such a great research, I just can physically feel how much work is behind this vid. And yes, AA loves Tav/Durge, objectively, period. Everyone sees what they want to to see (as e.g. people in Middleages seriously thought that beaver is an art of fish), but there are some things wich actually just need a little more attention to detail to see them for what they really are. AA's love to the protagonist is one of them. Love Astarion both SA and AA. And also love the music!

I love the hand holding so much 😢
-
Your tav is so pretty!! I love all the information on this video. It is to show how well written and acted this character is.
-
Thank you, this was very interesting. You did a wonderful job.
-
The traditional hairstyle suits him better. With a fashionable hairstyle, he is too big-eared
-
Really well done!😍

I’m not personally an AA enjoyer, but i think how one views him can DEFINITELY be subjective. It all depends on the story you are telling through your tav, and while I have my own opinions about the morality of letting him ascend, becoming a spawn esc: that’s all they are. opinions! People need to be more open to how others see things, even if u don’t agree. On another note, SUCH A PRETTY TAV!! Aesthetic, but not to the point where they look like every other basic tav with cc I’ve seen. Cool vid :D

This video's quality is truly amazing!
-
Thank you so much for this beautiful video! ❤ Perfect job - you pulled together all of Astarion's lines and plot points that prove the "vampire bride" theory. The song you chose fits our story so wonderfully, and the final shots speak volumes too. 💕Thank you!!! 💯

Astarion with that alternative haircut… nnngh I can’t wait to get the mod tools on ps5, it’s gonna be WILD!!
-
So many people keep saying 'No because it wasn't written in a book I could find and read about in game' or 'That's from an old book, if it's not newly and freshly printed then it doesn't count, I can't hear you'. 🙄 Thank you!
-
Your Tav/Durge and Astarion are both deliciously gorgeous~
-
I love this so much info that i wanted to know so bad but could never find! Thank you! Also your tav is so gorgeous!!!! ❤🥰
