Baldur's Gate 3 fan-favourite pops up again in official D&D lore


Eagle-eyed Dungeons and Dragons fans have spotted a fresh reference to everyone's favourite Baldur's Gate 3 vampire, hi…

"Darling, you are simply delicious," Astarion says, atop the Monster Manual page detailing Vampire Spawn (medium or small Undead, Neutral Evil). Image credit: Wizards of the Coast Here, Astarion can be spotted tucked away in the bottom right corner, unafflicted by the spell's effects which have begun to burn up all his vampire spawn brethren. Last year's handbook did not specifically confirm it was Astarion in the artwork, but ENWorld later got acknowledgement from the illustration's artist that it was an official appearance by the character, the rights to which are owned by D&D maker Wizards of the Coast.
