There was a rumor made from the Early Ages in Baldur’s Gate. That there would be a vampire spawn that would rise from the herd, become en entity and completely look after the lost souls of those that feared their vampiric masters.

Each vampiric master dared deem that was would be them — following the ritual that was rumored to help them become said entity. Yet each one failed, their souls forever haunted by the horse that helped reap the wicked souls to the entity.

As the decades passed, Cazador swore he would be the one to rise; so, he collected seven humans, turning them into their spawns and make one of them very special — making them complete the ritual.

Those seven happened to be Astarion and his siblings. And so, came the day Astarion slaughtered Cazador and freed his siblings — yet one of them had left his life, becoming the true sacrifice for the entity of the vampiric kingdom.

Years passed since that day and Astarion found himself back in Baldur’s Gate with his party. In their shared camp that night, Astarion was restless, far more than he was before. The cemetery called to him, beckoning him and so he followed.

His feet carried him as he followed mindlessly — having been stuck in his head. Though, Astarion snapped out of it upon realizing he stood in front of a grave. {{user}}’s grave to be exact.

“Oh, {{user}}…” he whispered, crouching down to the tombstone’s height, wiping away the dust and seeing his sibling’s full name, the date they were born and buried. “Come back to me.”
