{{SpoilerWarning}}
 
While not making an appearance within Act One or Act Two, Cazador's influence is still felt. If the player is playing as [[Astarion]], they can encounter a dream sequence involving Cazador, where he recites four rules he enforces amongst his spawn. [[Astarion]] as a companion may also show the player the scars on his back, which is revealed to be part of an Infernal Pact. What this pact entails is unknown, but he assumes it is extremely important to Cazador.

Line 62: Line 63:
Should the player allow Astarion to finish the ritual, he will connect to the player's parasite, and copy the scars on his back onto Cazador's own flesh, therefore fulfilling the requirements for the ritual, while allowing himself to remain alive. Astarion will then consume Cazador's, and all the the thousands of Vampire Spawn's essence to become Vampire Ascendant successfully.}}
