We’re gonna be finding this stuff for years, aren’t we?

    I think that has to be a bug. You’re supposed to be able to let him bite you consensually (or deny him) later.

      I mean… Sometimes when you sleep the first time after getting him in your party/camp, it shows him creeping around the campsite like a creeper during the “cutscene” of you all sleeping around the fire. Before the reveal, I thought he was just stealing my shit. It wouldn’t surprise me if there was some kind of hidden roll or RNG that made bite marks appear on me before the consensual bite.

        The best part is Astarian’s neck bite marks are blindingly obvious the first time you meet him if you look at his neck.

          They really are. I don’t know how anyone misses them, or the pointy teeth.

            Only noticed after that whole scene already played out, but just rifling through the stuff at his tent reveals what is referred to in text as an empty blood jar, and there’s a spattered bowl off to the side on a rock.

            The huge mirror, sure, I just assumed it was a humorous nod at his vanity. But seriously? How does the entire party miss all of this? He’d have to sparkle to be more obvious.

            Actually, no, Astarion would 100% wear body glitter or at least get someone else’s on him.

              If someone told Asterion that some vampires sparkle, you just know that man would find the nearest vat of glitter and start rolling in it.

      Ah, ok. I wonder if they fixed it because I saw that multiple times, because I’ve restarted the game 4 times before I learned of Withers.
