Finding Cazador is a little harder than expected. To get past the locked door in his mansion, you and Astarion must infiltrate a party held by a notorious Baldur's Gate libertine - who dredges up painful memories from Astarion's past. How you deal with them is up to you.

  • 18,000 words of narrative
  • Simplified versions of Baldur's Gate 3 character creation options, including gender, anatomy, race, class, and the Dark Urge
  • Multiple paths and endings determined by player choice, character trait selection, and skill checks
  • Companion approval and inspiration systems for a romanced Astarion

General gameplay notes:

  • Available for web, Mac, and PC; the latter options are recommended.
  • Content warning: Includes textual references to Astarion's past abuse, as well as optional and clearly narratively indicated paths involving written sex and violence. All images are SFW.
  • Dice are rolled automatically upon selecting a skill check, rather than letting players preview the difficulty and potentially back out of making the roll.
  • While the VN supports Ren'py's rewind system, it only allows returning to the last dice roll; saving is recommended if you want to explore different paths.
  • Don't be afraid to fail some dice rolls! You'll usually have another way to proceed.
  • Report bugs to tlonista@proton.me.

I enjoyed this quite a bit.  A lot of choices had me torn, and at times feeling awful in the dialogues.  Which coincidentally I could nearly hear, they were SO Astarion.  I'm happy to report that I got a very good ending.  I wish there was more of this, but we of course know what happens next in the narrative in the real game.

To sum up: This was gorgeous, thank you for making it!
