Baldur’s Gate 3
Where Is Astarion’s Grave?
Astarion’s grave is located in the graveyard that is within the Lower City of Baldur’s Gate. This is the same graveyard where you can find Karlach’s parents buried, along with one of Shadowheart’s earlier mentors. When you see Astarion’s tombstone, you will learn his last name is Ancunin. This is the only place that his last name is mentioned in the game, and you can only figure this out if you translate the language on his tombstone. You will also learn that he died at the age of 39, an age that is extremely young for any Elf.
How To Visit Astarion’s Grave
If you want to visit Astarion’s grave, you may only do soif you romanced himand convinced himnot to Ascend. If you meet these requirements, Astarion will take you to the graveyard himself and tell you about his death.He will say that he woke up days later inside his coffin. He was forced to dig himself out just to be met by Cazador when he finally was free. From then on out, he was Cazador’s underling, being forced to do everything Cazador said. He will mark out the date of his death, symbolizing his desire to move on with his life.
Upon visiting the graveyard later, you will not be able to interact with Astarion’s grave at all. The game will not even mention that it is nearby. However, there is a grave that the narrator mentions has been vandalized with the words “vampires are real,” which could be a nod to Astarion’s grave.
