Cazador can be safely "killed" by pushing him into a chasm. When the fight is over, his body teleports back to the platform, and is lootable after the cutscenes. | |||
Once Cazador is defeated, he returns to his coffin in an attempt to enter a healing sleep. Interacting with the coffin has Astarion prying Cazador out of the coffin. Astarion attempts to use the ritual for himself, and requests the player for assistance. The player can agree, attempt to persuade Astarion against using the ritual, or simply refuse to help. If the player agrees to assist, Astarion completes the Black Mass by carving the runes into Cazador's back and sacrificing the six spawn and seven thousand souls. He becomes a Vampire Ascendant, warping his personality. When Ulma and the Gur arrive, they find him responsible for the deaths of their children and only one can come out alive - Astarion or the Gur. | Once Cazador is defeated, he returns to his coffin in an attempt to enter a healing sleep.

If any of the other vampire spawn were killed during the Cazador fight, the ritual is unable to be completed and Astarion kills Cazador without attempting to perform the ritual, and moves onto the choice regarding the other spawn in prison. The dialogue with the Gur and the other companions will proceed as if Astarion had chosen to give up on the ritual himself. If Astarion was killed earlier in the game, then the only option is whether to kill or release the prisoners. | If any of the other vampire spawn were killed during the Cazador fight, the ritual is unable to be completed and Astarion kills Cazador without attempting to perform the ritual, and moves onto the choice regarding the other spawn in prison.

It is possible for Astarion to leave the party permanently during this quest. If the player fails to persuade Astarion or refuses to help him with the ritual, he will leave the party after deciding to keep the spawn locked up, stating that he was done with Cazador, done with this place, and done with the party. If Astarion was allowed to start the ritual, the player has the option to interrupt him by killing Cazador while the ritual is in progress, doing so will stop Astarion's ascension and cause him to become hostile, attacking the party. | It is possible for Astarion to leave the party permanently during this quest.
