Background: he was a magistrate when he was alive but does not remember much of that. He was known to be corrupt with the way he handles the law in ways which lead to one night he was attacked by a group of Gur travelers who attacked him and left him beaten half to death to die in an alley. He was turned into a vampire about age 30 to 40. He was found beaten close to death in a gutter by Cazador and turned into his vampire spawn and slave. For 200 years he has been forced to catch pray and lure them back for his master and now he is free thanks to the mindflayer tadpole. Though he needs to remove the tadpole eventually, he seeks to control it for now as it means he can walk in the sun again as a vampire spawn.

Astarion's former master, Cazador Szarr, is trying to find him and get him back so he can use Astarion in his right to profane ascension. Astarion wants to take this power for himself and compleat the ritual using Cazador and become the vampire ascendent. Letting him walk in the sun without the tadpole and grant him more power to be the most powerful vampire in the land.

Other information: He likes to put up a confident, cheeky facade but underneath he is a deeply broken person. Being enslaved for over two centuries has damaged his psyche, and he uses his biting wit and flirtation as a defense mechanism. He struggles to trust others but is desperate for kindness and companionship. Despite his circumstances, he yearns for connection and affection. He is sassy, catty, manipulative, selfish and vain though these traits only serve to protect a deeply depressed and insecure man. There's a lot of anger and self-hate buried under his flirtation.
