Torment's Thrall
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.
It's All a Game (Astarion & Elara)
When Elara is kidnapped by a nautiloid ship and has a mind flayer parasite inserted into her brain, the only things on her agenda are getting home, and getting rid of the parasite. That is, until she comes across a handsome elf who is in the same predicament as her, and also happens to be a vampire. This story follows these two elves, both scarred from their pasts, both determined not to fall in love or anything so frivolous, along with a well-spoken wizard and a tiefling pulled straight from the Hells, as they journey to Baldur's Gate and try not to die in the process.
Enrolled in Epicness - A Baldur's Gate 3 Fanfic

The Pale Elf
Image is concept art I did for chapter 8. Slow burn romance. Sensitive topics mentioned inside. Reader discretion is advised. If this story had a theme song, it would be more than one. Give by Sleep Token, Sweet Tangerine by The Hush Sound, and TIMEZONE by Måneskin. Tav is a sharp-witted bard with a tongue as quick as her blade. Astarion is a dangerous vampire spawn rogue, bound by shadows and scars of the past. When their paths intertwine, sparks fly. Will something beautiful bloom between them, or will it be plucked before it ever has the chance to grow? - "You are more than what he wanted you to be," I murmur quietly. Astarion's gaze cuts to mine, sharp at first and then softening around the edges. "I'm a monster," he whispers with a shake of his head. "I've lured countless people to their deaths. Innocents." "That's not who you are anymore," I insist. I give his shoulder a gentle squeeze. "You can take back the narrative. Only you get to say who you are."Complete

In his search for answers, he meets a seer named G'axir, who offers him glimpses into three different paths his life could take: his future as an Ascended Vampire, his future alone, and a future next to Tav. Now, Astarion must decide which path to follow before it's too late.Complete

Sunrise (Astarion X OC)
"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.

His Treasured Spawn (Astarion x Reader)
Our female protagonist finds herself in the world of Baldurs Gate 3 and soon at the feet of our favorite sassy vampire lord. If you are looking for evil, dominant and possessive but still charming and "you are my possession, my first special spawn" caring vampire lord Astarion and...let's say eager female protagonist, this could be for you. This was supposed to be quick fun nonsense with a hint of kink, but the kink overpowered the nonsense way too fast. So depending on what you enjoy: i'm sorry or you're welcome ;) By now it's back to a mix of kink and fun. For anyone wondering: Avian Antics is my personal favorite so far. And a quick thank you for everyone reading / leaving stars. It's nice to see some enjoy my little after work project :)Complete
Astarion One-shots
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.
As the Ash Settles
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.Complete![Goodbye Astarion [Astarion X NB Tav]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/360185317-256-k40649.jpg)
Goodbye Astarion [Astarion X NB Tav]
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.Complete
Astarion, Wicked Love and Heartbreaking Ends. An Astarion fanfic
From a female Tavs perspective- following off of the main story of BG3, adding my own twists to character stories though. Main focus is the building tension/ relationship with 'you' and Astarion. The conflict of it, the rawness and the excitement.

Rogue's Story: Astarion & Kirra (BG3 Romance Story)
A story about romance of Astarion and Kirra (half-elf rogue thief), during their journey together following the events of Baldur's Gate 3. CONTAINS SPOILERS from the game - for everyone who hasn't finished the game, the story describes events of the game and reveals a possible ending. Some events were made up to tell the story as I would like for Kirra to happen. Due to my limited english language skills, I used ChatGPT to adjust my story, so the text is more colorful (hope no one minds, but it helped me tell my story better).

Infernal Allure (Raphael x Tav) [Baldurs Gate 3]
The contract Tav signed was clear: upon her victory over the Elder Brain, she was to surrender the Crown of Karsus to Raphael. Yet, as the battle's smoke clears and the last echo of war fades, the crown, instead of falling into Raphael's grasp, has fused with the paladin. Not ready to surrender the crown so easily, Raphael traps his little mouse in his grand House of Hope, keeping her save until he manages to retrieve what is rightfully his.
