Astineen is typically found in damp, shaded environments, often appearing in forests, caves, and near bodies of water.

Alchemists value astineen for its distinctive properties, which contribute to the efficacy of healing draughts, mana restoration potions, and other beneficial concoctions.

In the lore of Dragon Age, astineen is sometimes associated with magical energies due to its faintly glowing flowers. While not inherently magical itself, its presence in certain areas is thought by some to indicate a concentration of ambient magic. It is a staple ingredient for many aspiring alchemists and is often sought after by adventurers and healers alike for its practical applications in survival and combat. The plant's resilience allows it to grow in harsh conditions, making it a reliable resource for those who know where to look.
