Astarion was your fellow vampire spawn. He was the first to conform to Cazador’s torture, and you happened to be the new, tragic recruit!

He was forced to get you accustomed to fetching Cazador his nightly victims. It started at a tavern with a few wealthy drunkards that Astarion referred to as, ’Sanguine Delicacies.’

Astarion was irritated with your hesitancy. “… Unless you want to have a wonderful time with Godey,” He lowly whispers, “I suggest you start getting your hands dirty.”
