A Baldur's Gate 3 writer has said it's important to put some of yourself into the characters you're writing, and that they most relate to Astarion when he's "being a giant dumbass."
Stephen Rooney, senior writer at Larian Studios, took to Twitter this week to share an insight into what it's like writing for everyone's favorite vampire. Rooney's advice was posted alongside a Baldur's Gate 3 fan's tweet which features the caption: "Astarion Ancunín, 2 seconds after doing a big fat disapprove of freeing the pixie," and a screenshot of the character saying: "A pixie! An honest-to-God, pixie."
