After the final battle against the mind flayer threat Arista made her way back to the Underdark with Astarion. Their new mission: find the freed 7000 vampire spawn and teach them how to survive without causing a bloodbath.
But Arista has a second mission, a secret mission. Finding a cure for Astarion's vampirism to give him a chance to walk in the sun again without the bloodlust but also without immortality.
It's supposed to be a surprise but all leads she has found so far turn out to be a dead end.
Her last option: Asking a gift of the Goddess she has worshipped ever since her family fled Menzoberranzan.
But what she is asking proves to be too much for a lesser deity such as Eilistraee. The Goddess however does know a way...
With the stakes raised Arista can no longer keep her secret from her lover.
Will he embrace mortality for them, for himself knowing what it might cost the Paladin at his side? Or will he watch his true love age and die at his side, sparing her from the pain the path in front of them promises?All Rights Reserved

There's No Sleep for the Wicked by RisingEmberStories

Cursed with vampirism and desperate for freedom, Astarion journeys through a world teetering on the edge of ruin. Amidst shifting alliances, ancient evils, and temptations of power, he must decide if he'll reclaim his autonomy with grace-or carve it out through blood. Baldur's Gate 3, nor any of the characters belong to me. They belong to Larian Studios and the cast of Baldur's Gate 3. I decided to write my narrative of my origin Astarion run, while being completely in-character for him, and making decisions that are all his own. Please enjoy!

Torment's Thrall by therepplicas

Trapped. For two centuries, Astarion has been trapped. In a circumstance. Under the thumb of a master. Trapped between what he wants and what he has been commanded. But even when he finds himself infected with a mindflayer tadpole and dropped in a grove over a hundred miles from his captor, free from the debilitating effects of his curse, he still feels trapped. After running across a strange druid outside of Emerald Grove, he wonders if, maybe- just maybe- he can find a path to real freedom. Jalva left behind her roots as a druid long ago. An ex-soldier, a wanderer of Faerun, she returns to Baldur's Gate to find her way back into an upper-class social circle, hoping to find something to fill her monotonous days. But when she is abruptly captured and implanted with an Illithid tadpole, she finds all the excitement she wants and more, including in the form of a familiar face.

Star Reborn by WolfPrincessX

~ Harry Potter Fanfic ~ Lyra Whitlock believed in many things but reincarnation? Not likely. However, when that fateful day came, much earlier then she'd expected, she found that the things she didn't believe in where very much real and now she had a lesson to learn so she can hopefully go 'peacefully'. Taking her memories from her previous life was helpful and she used it to her advantage but can she learn her lesson to pass, is it really going to be that easy? ...Nothing is ever that easy. ~ Lesson One Of The Whitlock Series. ~ #1 houseofblack 29/1/25 #1 Hermione 27/2/25 #1 DracoMalfoy 23/4/25 #1 Remuslupin 7/5/25 #1 Harry 7/7/25 #1 LyraBlack 15/7/25

As the Ash Settles by mscoraziph

As the Ash Settles, is my take on what happens to the group of companions after saving Baldur's Gate. As the ash settles and the drinks are pouring a familiar sensation washes over our Tav, the very same one that compelled her to attack poor Alfira in her slumber, perhaps defeating her sister was not just denying her father but in fact taking back her rightful spot as leader of the Bhaalspawn, perhaps Withers was indeed wrong. Questions left unanswered while still having to find a special artifact for Astarion to walk and in the sun and still beating heart to fear Karlach. Rated M for Mature. Will include adult behaviors, some violence and well just stuff from the game itself. Don't worry though not a finger will be laid on the goodest boy Scratch. "*" will mark homebrewed items with their links.

Her Choice by WolfPrincessX

~ TVD Fanfic ~ Lyra Whitlock was tired, her soul had been moved once again, this time Twenty-ish centuries back into the future for another lifetime. This was her last lesson apparently, although this lesson could prove to be the hardest. Lyra had thought this lifetime was any old normal life instead of the fantasy worlds she'd been to already but destiny had a sick sense of humour and she found herself surrounded by the Scooby gang. She'd dealt with many things but Vampires, Doppelgangers and Hybrids? That was a new one. But Lyra would enjoy this one, having what seemed to be one last time at a chance to be a normal teenager. That was until she discovered she had a choice to make, one that if she'd known before her lesson was learnt would have been an easy choice. Now? Not so much. Does she finally rest? Or will this lesson keep her around for what could be, forever? ~Lesson Three Of The Whitlock Series~ #1 CarolinexKlaus 27/7/25 #1 Lyra 23/8/25 #3 Thevampirediaries #2 Bonniebennett #1 bamf 7/11/25

Goodbye Astarion [Astarion X NB Tav] by ItsFinnleyMan

Astarion ascended just like he wanted. Tav helped just like he asked. People change just like they were warned. Fair warning: Ascended Astarion is the villain, Tav frequently disassociates and justifies Astarion's behavior to themselves and the other companions. Domestic violence is implied but not depicted out-right. Verbal abuse is kept to a minimum. Two major characters will die eventually. An alternative epilogue at Withers' party. Still in progress but I feel inspired and it's a short one. I will probably update frequently I haven't written fanfiction in 11 years. Go easy on me lol Finally, this work has been cross-posted here and on AO3. These are the only places I have published it, if you're reading this somewhere else it's been stolen.

The God of Death by Warlock7567 by Writers_of_AO3

Balerion, the valyrian god of death, decides he will not allow the house of the dragon to end in such a distasteful manner after the death of Daenerys Stormborn and the exile of Jon Snow. He returns to where the downfall began in 105 AC, one week before Queen Aemma dies in childbirth, to change time itself. It is not a difficult task for a god. If he fails, he can just do it again. All credit goes to Warlock7567. This is their original story on AO3.

Astarion One-shots by Niamh_Mercuur

Time slips through my fingers. And I wonder. How much of me has been lost? How much of me has been found? But I am no optimist. So I wait. Dreading the day when I no longer recognise myself. Or worse, When others no longer recognise me. Will my life stop suddenly? Like a pendulum interrupted mid swing? Or slowly, like an old clock winding down. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick. Tock. Astarion x my high elf rogue Tav, Nyx Astarion x my wood elf paladin Tav, Sera Maybe some others, we'll see. Astarion and any other bg3 npc's belong to Larian Studios, thus I do not own them.

Sunrise (Astarion X OC) by Lunarowlz

"HER?!?! She was away from the blast radius! I WAS RIGHT THERE!" Astarion whined, coughing and brushing away weave. "You're lucky I had bone man bring you back. That was artifact money." "Artifact money? I was dead!" Astarion argued. "Correction, technically, you're already dead, like all of us will be if we don't feed the damn wizard infused artifacts!" I argued. "Why are you talking about me like I'm a pet needing fed? I'm standing two feet away from you." Gale deadpanned. *disclaimer: I OWN NOTHING! The only things I own are my characters and personal artwork I add to the story headers. Everything else is all owned by Larian.*
