I like to think Astarion was a mama’s boy….(young Astarion headcanons below)

They didn’t grow up wealthy, but she valued what few finery they had (she was a seamstress, so she made all their clothes and she was DAMN GOOD at it)

Astarion looked just like her. Silvery hair in waves that curled at the bottom, blue eyes with gold flecks, pale skin common among moon elves.

She taught him how to sew/embroidery

As Astarion grew older, his knack for light fingered antics and deception wasn’t encouraged, but it also wasn’t unwelcome. She wanted her son to be safe, but she was also proud of his cunning and intelligence.

The look on her face when he came home at the age of 30, with fake documents proving their noble status, and another a forged law degree….she could only laugh as she pulled her son’s ear, chastising him while he cheekily grinned back. He wanted them to have a better life, and it was about to begin.

He would purchase garments that they would’ve not been able to afford prior, but complain they lacked the fine stitching that she possessed (she would make adjustments to them when he was away). He bought her the best materials for sewing garments, even thought he kept reminding her she didn’t have to work anymore. But she liked sewing.

When he took her to their first ball, she would sit in the back of the ballroom, watching her magistrate son enchant and dazzle his new fellow lawmen and nobles, smiling with pride into her chalice, but also with a tinge of worry…she wanted her son to be safe…

Forgot I made these concepts of pre-vamp Astarion a few months ago- can't even remember what for but I might revisit! I feel like most depictions I've seen of him are fair Astarion with light hair but maybe the sun elf version could work if I played with his skin undertones?...

Btw fic writers feel free to use this as reference, would just love to be tagged if you do 🤩

NRS kept giving him a shitty hairstyle, why don't they just give him an Astarion hairstyle like this instead?

Ressurected Astarion headcanon

I just can't stop thinking about Astarion re-gaining his mortality

Masterlist

Headcanons

When Astarion stepped in the sunlight for the first time in decades, he fell to his knees and cried whispering "I am alive, I am alive, I am alive"

His eyes turned out to be hazel

His hair slowly turned darker and his skin is no longer that pale

It took time for Tav to get used to the warmth of his skin especially in bed

Astarion kisses Tav's neck all the time as if he can't let his old habit go but the very thought he used to drink blood makes him feel sick

In the first hours of his new mortal life he felt dizzy and eventually fainted - he didn't realize he needed water and food

When he saw himself in a mirror, he chukled "No wonder you fell for me, Tav, since I am so handsome"

Sometimes he sees weird dreams about places and people but he can't understand what exactly he sees. Tav suggests it might be his memories.

Astarion knows he will eventually go to find his birthplace and family but he just doesn't want to do it now

#astarion becoming mortal again coz it will definetely be a happy end #astarion #baldur's gate 3 #astarion headcanon #astarion romance #astarion headcanons #spacebarbarian headcanon

"You are going grey, my dear." Astarion grins as he seats himself in Halsin's lap, hooking his arms around the man's shoulders.

Halsin's mortality was a subject that Astarion thought about often with no small amount of trepidation. The idea that one of the only people that shared in his freedom and experienced the horrors that the Netherbrain brought would be gone left Astarion anxious.

There was Gale, the wizard had made himself virtually immortal completely by accident, but it was *Gale*.

"I was already going grey Astarion." Halsin laughs, dropping his book to lightly rest his hands on Astarion's thighs.

"Fine, more grey."

Halsin hums, "Well, it has been a few centuries my heart. Age was bound to begin to catch up with us."

"Us!? Heavens no, I still look no older than 39." Astarion says sitting back to gaze down at Halsin, holding a hand to his chest in offense.

The inconsistent aging bothered Astarion on occasion. He still had the same face as he did when he died while Halsin aged beside him. His mind drifts to Thaniel and how Halsin would have to age out of yet another person.

Astarion is dragged from his thoughts when he hears Halsin's deep laugh.

"My apologies for such an implication, little love." He pats Astarion's thighs.

"Nonetheless, the centuries have changed me."

And they have. To say Halsin has grown into his body would be an understatement. He's softer around the edges now, laugh lines engraved deeper into his face and god, the tamed beard the man's decided to support drives Astarion to insanity.

And of course, the aforementioned greying hair.

"They have." Astarion agrees leaning down to lay a kiss on the tip of Halsin's nose, earning him a breathy laugh. He sits up brushing the loose hair from his face and tucking it behind his ears.

The following shiver that his light touch against the ears edge prompts is a reaction Astarion will forever treasure.

"For the better I hope?"

Astarion laughs.

"Oh, positively. You make me down right ravenous." He purrs, burying his face in the mans neck and lightly nips at Halsin's ear.

#I'm still trying to force myself out of writers block #So enjoy this shitty little thing #Anyways #Astarion is actually struggling with the idea of losing Halsin #And this is either going to play into my majour character death idea or my idea of Astarion some how finding a way back to mortality #halstarion #halsin #astarion

Turns out doing the Durge/Astarion break up fail right after defeating Gortash with Karlach is a one-two emotionally devastating combo, thanks for asking!

#it definitely made sense in character #with karlach facing mortality and durge knowing orin is next #and that bhaal isn't going to let them walk away #and so choosing that night at camp after to try to break it off with that sweet elf made sense #needing that level of reassurance that he isn't going anywhere that evening feels right #but damn is that brutal #bg3 #astarion #durge #dark urge #bg3 spoilers #durgestarion #astarion x durge
