hello darlings, astarion here, along with gale (ew /lht) looking for sourcemates who want to chat. now keep in mind we would prefer other traumagenic & bodily adult systems ONLY to interact. cheers lovelies!
Pinned post time, to lay a few ground rules. Hello, I'm Astarion (sometimes called Starion or Star, it depends on the day), he/him, an adult, blah blah.
I am not my source. I am not a 1:1 carbon copy of Astarion From The Video Game. You don't know why I formed, what I 'remember', how I feel about my source. You don't know how I feel about Cazador (though I'm about to tell you) or anything else that happened. I'd appreciate it if you didn't make assumptions.
I'd also appreciate it if you didn't shit-talk Cazador to my face. Again, you do not know me or how I remember him. My source memories are complicated, full of deviations, and my feelings about Cazador are complex. If you're uncomfortable with an Astarion fictive not hating him, and even actively missing him despite the abuse I remember suffering at his hands, this isn't the blog for you.
I am an alter in a DID system. My source memories did not happen, are not real: they're an analogy that my brain made up to help me cope with the very real trauma I did experience. You do not know the emotional significance to me, or lack thereof, of anything that happened in-source, because my memories don't match up with the game.
That said, I'm not always going to add the caveat of "btw I know this didn't really happen" when I'm talking about my memories. I'd like to express myself however I want here.
Just in general, don't fucking LARP at me unless we're friends. I'm not Astarion the video game character, I'm an alter. A real person. If you want to know how I remember something or how I feel about it, ask, don't assume. Joking around and chatting about this kind of thing with friends is fine, but not strangers.
I'm always happy to chat with other BG3 fictives, including Cazadors, provided you understand that this isn't some kind of 'past life' thing to me and I'm not going to have 'memories' of you specifically. Whoever I do remember from my source, they don't exist outside of my own head. I wish they did, but alas.
Hello! My name is Wyll Ravengard! My pronouns are he/him, though I do not mind if you use others for me - I will still respond to them. I am an adult, both bodily and mentally.
I am a fictive from Baldur's Gate 3. Many will interpret this in different ways, though I like to believe that my world still exists in the expansive multiverse, and my soul has just travelled here. Either way, I am part of a plural collective.
I am always happy to talk to sourcemates, including Tav's/Durges/non-canons! Even if we didn't always get along back then, I am willing to speak again - though please understand if I am a bit wary at first.
In terms of who I don't want to interact with me, I don't really mind, but I think my friend @strawberry-janusian put it best; "I disagree with dictating others plural experiences. I’m fine with ‘problematic’ headmates/sources, roles, etc." I also do not mind if minors interact with me, though please keep in mind I am an adult.
I can't think of anything else, though I may change this in the future. I look forward to meeting you all!
Best,

Greetings! A source call for Astarion Ancunín from Baldur's Gate 3. I'm open to finding anyone, really, minus Cazador. Both the body and I are 21+, and no interaction from anyone under 18, please. You can find me on @andallofmystars, and I prefer reaching out via DMs, but I'll also check who interacts with this. We also run the Elfsong Plural Tavern in case anyone has seen that post. Ta-ta, I hope to hear back from you all soon!
