The following long rest, the player will wake up to Astarion trying to drink their blood. He will approve of the player saying they trust him, and further approve of them letting him drink their blood.

To sleep with them, any party members not involved | Sorn and Nym Orlith are twins and courtesans at Sharess' Caress, a brothel just outside Baldur's Gate. You can pay 500 gold to sleep with one of them though you cannot actually pay them for solo service if a romanced companion is in the party. If you have a romanced companion or companions in the party with you, they will offer to both sleep with you and your romance(s) for 1000 gold instead, however, most companions will refuse until you have completed their personal quest, save Karlach who always refuses. To sleep with them, you must send any party members not involved in the affair to camp or ungroup them from the main character before you can initiate the scene. Note that this scene is not animated, and takes place in the dark. You may also instead do the quest [[Find the 'Stern Librarian' Ffion]] and receive their company for free as a quest reward. | ||
