I wish Oceiros had more of an impact on the story. Like some dialogue about him between characters as a way to build his character instead of the player just being thrown at him.

His fight was weak as shit too.

Who even was Oceiros, what was his significance?

>>337618375

the son he tried to infuse the power of the old dragons, he lost his mind like logan the big hat. maybe never existed... his two sons were a failed experiment using.... humanity?

Oceiros didn't really feel like King Lothric. If he didn't have "Consumed King" in his name I'd think that he's some ordinary scholar consumed by dragon knowledge

I know that feel. My heart actually sunk when that pained cry started.
>>
>>337620341
who is this?
>>
>>337620195
He was a king, that was a scholar, that was consumed by his obsession.

That whole encounter felt very real deal to me. Even disregarding how easy he was to fight.
The dialogue pre-fight, the dialogue mid-fight, and the beast like everything in the latter part of the fight. It was all very telling, conveying the image of a mighty and knowledgeable king that had fallen.

I mean, in spite of being clearly insane, he still had the sanity to actually hold and keep dialogue. Even as a beast. He most certainly stood out from the rest.
>>
>>337620829
So? Why should he matter anyway?

His son's impeached him of power. They were the important ones.

Oceiros felt really unique to me

He's what I imagine would happen if a king blindly went mad with his weird dragon obsession mutation shit

I imagine what probably happened was that his fellow royals locked him away to tend his garden with all his dragon porn for the rest of time, while he toiled away ranting about a baby that was either taken away, or in the fight depending on the developers intentions.

This could be why there are so many cathedral guards in the area perhaps, they're in defence so that his fuckery can't escape.

>>337621420
Miyazaki literally killed a baby to record this. How do you think the parents would feel if they learned it ended up not even being used in the game?

I kind of wish more bosses would have been sane enough to talk with you. But perhaps then Oceiros wouldn't have felt as unique.

Who's siding with who? For what we know Oceiros is the reason Lothric is cripple. Also he workship for Ocelotte probably caused Lothric to say "Fuck all the world". Oceiros is a shit father.

A dragon-kin who was left in Gwyndolin's care. There isn't enough information to know. She refers to Gwyn as her father, and Gwyndolin as her brother, but she's sheltered enough to believe you - the player - are a bird; it's unlikely that she's directly related to Gwyn or Gwyndolin.

She's definitely half-dragon, though. She has a tail and the back-tendrils that all the half-dragons have in Dark Souls III. If she weren't female, it could be that she was originally Ocelotte (whom Oceiros refers to as "he"), left in Gwyndolin's care by the Queen of Lothric after her departure.

There's evidence suggesting that Gwynevere was the Queen, although people pin it as translation errors.

>>337622582
But then there was also whatever the fuck Mergo was

and the fact you could hear him crying whenever you stood still long enough.

Oceiros had a ton of "impact" on the emotions for me personally

The ost, how it begins with the mystical, sorrowful theme, with the almost deranged begging like nature of oceiros, growing more frustrated, before it devolves into the bestial, and powerful chant in phase 2, it follows the fight wonderfully.

I like how his first phase had almost "bug squashing" like attacks, and the weird squirming moveset as he focussed on holding the baby was really memorable, but the way he almost becomes a miniature dragon in the second phase was really done well, I loved seeing him flail around mindlessly, and fly every once in a while

Underrated fight in my opinion.

Somehow, Oceiros was ok with Lothric. Younger Prince was cherished as true heir of fire. You even can find his statue in Hight Wall of Lothric location.
But I quess that Oceiros changed his mind when he found Seath`s porno archive.
Probably Oceiros forgot about family`s obsession about linking the fire tradition and fall into "muh dragons" meme.

No wonder that Lothric went mad. He was born crippled and weak, because of his father`s experiments, but then his father got new precious dragon toy.

No that's a load of bullshit.

>>337623108
Yorshka may not have anything to do with Oceiros, and most likely does not.
But she is most likely half-dragon. Just like Priscilla.
Priscilla is even the clue to finding Yorshka. The tower she is imprisoned to is located where the building that housed the painted world painting used to be in Dark Souls 1. You're meant to find Yorshka by taking a leap of faith in search of the painted world. But ending up finding Yorshka instead.

And in the very same tower Yorshka is imprisoned, on the way down you find the Painting Guardian set. Of the guardians of the Painted World of Priscilla.
Is Yorshka related to Priscilla? Perhaps. But no matter they are most certainly alike. That's no coincidence.

It's possible that Ocelotte is actually in, and in Oceiros' arms, but you need a magic item from a DLC in order to see and hear the poor child..

Something I've noticed, there's a surprising lack of people using Lorian's armor. Also a lack of Anri's sword.

Lorian's armor is pretty much the best without having to invest a lot into vitality, and Anri's sword heals you and does 400 AR with 40 luck, meaning you get tons of item drops.

What gives?

Whats with the invisible baby shit that keeps showing up in these games
is it a Berserk reference?
>>
>>337623910
I think it's worth noting that before DS3 we've only seen one half-dragon, a child of Seath. Half-dragons may not be possible without Seath's sorcery-fuckery.

Now with Yorshka we see a very similar individual to Priscilla, to the point that we just assume she is also half-dragon (again, of the Seath variety, which may be the only variety). It also just so happens we also see a (completely insane) human who has been turned into a Seath-like dragon and may be missing a child.

Yorshka is obviously wrong in thinking she's another child of Gwyn and is basically copying Gwyndolin word for word, having been taught by him even.

There's a lot to say that Oceiros isn't holding Ocelotte (and thus, Ocelotte isn't even present). Very early on in the fight, Ocelotte goes missing and Oceiros tries to call him back, but almost nothing has changed in terms of his stance. Likewise, the crying is completely separate to whatever is going on, continuing on even after the baby is "killed". Moreover, if the baby is still in his hand throughout the whole first part of the fight, then why is he looking for him?

So basically, I'm saying Oceiros lost Ocelotte to Gwyndolin (probably taken by Gwynevere) and went completely insane. Ocelotte became a "girl" or perhaps was always a girl and Oceiros just assumed he was male or really wanted to be succeeded by a son.

The only thing that gives me pause is that DS3 seems to romantically pair Gwyndolin and Priscilla, which makes some sense considering their positions in DS1.

Mostly cause Lorian's crown looks like shit. And most people don't know the power of 40 luck.
Also, 40 luck is not that much. It raises your Item Find multiplier from 1 to 1.4. And you can already hit 350+ without any Luck dump thanks to Symbol of Avarice and other Discover buffing items.

I didn't think of it, but it actually could be. Berserk has this semi-aborted baby that keeps popping up everywhere and being creepy as fuck. Well now he's more of a kid, but still.
>>
>>337622419
You can, it's just toned down in the mix. You wear it just before Oceiros screams for Ocelotte. If you look at Oceiros's hands you can also see a sudden splash of blood too.
>>
>>337625826
There is no certainty that Priscilla is related to Seath. It could just be that she is scaleless because humans don't have scales It could be any number of reasons.
I am not going to say that she can't be related to Seath, but if she actually was I would actually expect a more definite clue beyond just visual similarities.

You forget, we also see two other Dragon-related entities.
The Flesh Dragons that look like really bad copies of Seath made from humans in the Dungeon and the black mass inside some basic hollows at High Wall and Lothric Castle, as well as the 2 dragons at the Barracks.
They are more serpentine like the serpent-men of Archdragon Peak, but it's clear they have a connection to Dragons.

>Poise is a super armor
Not it's not you double retard, Poise is completely separate from Hyper Armor.
Hyper Armor only exists and gives you complete immunity from stuns during the actual attack animation of any "heavy" weapon, which includes great axes, great hammers, great sword, ultra great swords, and similar. Poise itself does NOTHING.

I can hyperarmor through attacks with a GS buck naked though, what exactly are you trying to say poise does
>>
>>337627202
it was balanced in ds2, you got a little poise without being in animation. in in animation you got your full poise. ds3 just removed poise completely just for hyper armor. so now every shitter and his two friends with their katanas can just stunlock you in fucking havel's set before you can even start your swing.
>>

No, Anon, it doesn't. you can have 0 Poise and be immune to stuns during attack frames with any Ultra Great Sword.

the game also literally never ever ever calls Gwyndolin a girl. Ever. He is always, 100% described as a boy by every single item description relating to him. If Yorshka was a trap, the game would tell you HEY THIS GIRL IS ACTUALLY A GUY, IT'S A BIG SECRET SO DON'T TELL ANYONE. Just like Gwyndolin. But it doesn't, Yorshka is called "her" in all of her shit.

He is a god. They don't hollow easily. Besides, Andre found peace in dedicating himself towards smithing and leaving other responsibilities aside. Instead focusing fully on his art.
Which makes him extra resistant to hollowing.

There are lots of gods in Dark Souls. Or whatever you are to call their race. Most of the hollowed knights are supposedly the same as well.

I think the only explanation for all the nonsense in the story is that every point in history is converging into a single point in time. So that explains why the high wall of londor just magically "appeared" and why siegward and patches are in the game.

Except Gwyndolin did not become a woman. He acts feminine because he was RAISED as a girl. His body is still that of a boy.
That's why there's a ring like that, too. It makes you ACT like the opposite gender, but it doesn't literally CHANGE your gender.

Yorshka is related to Gwynevere, who is heavily implied to be the queen, or at least closely related to the queen.
Ocelotte was spirited away by the queen to protect him from Oceiros.
Gwyndolin suddenly has a new sibling who knows nothing of the world.
Gwyndolin is known for his gender fluidity, and the game even gives you a ring that will do this to the player.
Yorshka is half dragon.

All of this points to Yorshka being Ocelotte in hiding. She/He doesn't know their true origin, because she/he was told they were a child of Gwyn.

Plus, Yorshka isn't even wearing the Reversal Ring. She doesn't drop it when she dies. Regardless of the ring's existence, Yorshka doesn't have it on her. It's stored in a chest in the Darkmoon Tomb.

Anon, this si a world where by sucking people's soouls you can just get bigger.
Where by eating people you can become a slime monster.

And yet it's completely impossible that a ring designed to change the gender could, to a god, whose biology is not even remotely as concrete as humans, completely change their sex.

You're actually saying this? You're actually saying that this world where being fucking hungry can turn a dragon into a giant tooth vagina, a god can't become a woman with a magic ring?

Even so without shields Bloodborne is still a lot easier than Dark Souls. With how many heals you get and rallying you could plow through most areas in one go.

So just because there's a baby cry while fighting a mad, magic dragon man then that means the baby is in the room?
Ocelotte wouldn't even be a baby. Lothric and Lorian are both adults, and Ocelotte was born before Oceiros became a dragon.
>>
>>337628601
this just makes me think of Lothric's feels as the sun begins to fade as true inheritor of the flame is out there killing off all the lords of cinder

>>337635763
Ocelotte is a half-dragon. Priscilla shows us that half-dragons can turn invisible when they want.

A baby is crying in Oceiros' bossroom, and Oceiros is singing a lullaby to it. Once you enter, he starts screaming about how he wants to protect Ocelotte, and starts calling for him. Logically speaking, the crying baby is Ocelotte.
>>
>>337635914
What even is the mechanic in Dark 3 by which you get estus?
I know killing invaders will refill one flask, but sometimes I just randomly get estus as though someone had kindled near me.

what the fuck are you trying to say? that the baby is some kind of hallucination of Oceiros, which is why YOU hear it, as well as him? Please take a step back and realize how fucking dumb you sound.

ok
>>
>>337636035
No one is entirely sure how it works. Some say it's like the DaS 1 humanity system where you randomly get one after a certain amount of kills and others believe tougher enemies have a higher percentage of giving estus.

Well, the wiki says Ocellote is Oceiros child that went Bye-Bye long before he started studying under Seath and turned into that weird Dragon-Hyrbid himself, going insane in the end. I suspect the part of his mind clinging to his long lost child somehow conjures the crying sound with his magic while he himself is unaware of that, thinking that its really his child.

Before all this crap about unused baby scream/crushing sounds, I was just convinced that Ocelotte was something Oceiros called the Prince Lothric.

Oceiros accuses you of being after Ocelotte. Ocelotte is his son. Lothric is also his son. And you're actually after Lothric.

Dragons are the only things that survive the cycle. Think about it, Ash Lake in the first dark souls is nothing but ash, ash from a previous cycle, arch trees everywhere, former hollows like how everything hollow is turning into trees in 3. The dark ocean you see in ash lake is most likely humanity as well, as Aldrich dreamed of an age of deep sea. Everything is reverting back to what it was before the first flame. Kaath and Frampt both want to stop it, because they hate the dragons, and both of their methods prevent the dragons ruling. Unless you are an Everlasting Dragon, you are fucked in the Dark Souls Universe. Ocieros probaly realized that since his son wouldn't link the flame, he'd try and become an immortal dragon and outlive the fading of the flame. Everything has gone full circle.

>>
>>337637917
How do we know it's the creation of the world anon. Ash is everywhere. For all we know there could have been a thousand "first flames"
3's ending makes it all come full circle. Ash is all that's left, hollows are becoming archtrees, and the abyss/humanity is welling up into a deep ocean. Dragons are the only enduring things, and now it'll go back to how it was before Gwyn's age. Until another "First Flame" appears again. The cycles we see in 1,2,3 are just because Gwyn prolonged it, rather than let it die out naturally, and 3 is having it finally going back to the way it was.

His argument still makes sense in that cenario though. If how ever many years past between the appearance of the First Flame and Gwyn linking to it past, there's still ample time for hollowfication to slowly erode away the natural world. Then after Gwyn linked the fire, all those Hollows from the first cycle would have formed ash lake
>>
>>337638151
holy crap, the Age of Dark is N O T the Age of Ancients. The Age of Ancients wasn't dark OR light. It was grey. The First Flame was a pandora's box that can't be re-bottled up. Grey can't ever exist again. It's either Light, or NotLight (aka Dark).

>>337638217
Not that guy but the game really does not.
We already knows that there were dragons before the witches fucked the first flame and Gwyn linked it. But we don't know for how long the dragons had already existed or how old the world was back then.

Sure it was before humanity, but nothing tells us there was no world before.

There was no hollowing until Gwyn linked the flame.
The flame burned brightly for maybe 1000 years, then it started to wane, thats when The Witch tried to make a new one and fucked it, Gwyn started fighting demons then gave up, and then he left to perform the last resort of burning himself to rekindle the flame. Something during this process created hollowing, which was an incentive for humans to feed the age of fire with their humanity.
Then the age of fire came back somewhat and lasted another thousand years, then the game starts.
>>
>>337638384
>Not that guy but the game really does not.
It is, quite literally the very first thing you see upon starting a new game.
The game explicitely lays out the creation of the world, shows us how it happened and what it meant. That's the entire FUCKING PLOT of this series, that the world is dying and what created it is fading away.

For fucks sake.
>>
>>337638496
Wrong, friendo, both DaS2 and DaS3 state that Hollowing is a feature inherent to nature. It's simply a product of the First Flame fading.

Plus, New Londo was an Undead city, and that was definitively around before Gwyn linked the Flame -- the 4kings got shards of his soul
>>
>>337638496
Actually, that may not be the case. All Hollows are undead by nature. Niito was literally born undead. Its very likely Hollows have existed from the very beginning.
>>
>>337638496
>hollowing is an incentive for humans to link the flame
humans aren't the only things that hollow.

humans hollow
rats hollow
dogs hollow
gods hollow

everything hollows when the Dark starts creeping in, humans are just the first to start, since they're the creatures most closely connected to the Dark of all

>>337638724
>Nito was born undead
It's in his name, you dunce. He's not undead, he's dead. He was the first to die, creating and governing death. Undead are not zombies or vampires, this isn't Walking Dead. The undead are lifeless not dead.

So how much does the non-undead world of Dark Souls know of the undead world and how they literally control and fight over the linking of the flames which interestingly enough basically controls everything humanity needs to live and persist?

It always kind of striked me as odd. How the world of the undead appears to be more something the world of the living shuns. Some place where they banish the cursed and the undead. Banish them to ignore them and not need to look at them.

And then it turns out that some of the most important things for all life everywhere are right there, in the land of the undead.
So why does the world of the living appear to be so disinterested? Are they just unaware? Why aren't they warring with aries from all over the world attempting to take control of the land of the undead? Do they really trust the cursed and the undead with controlling their own fates?

What really is the deal here?

Nito is dead, in every sense of the word. So are his skeletons. The skeletons are not reanimated, they're not undead, they're just dead.
Death and Life are opposites, but they don't work like IRL. Hollows aren't dead or alive, they're undead, devoid of life and death. It's why they can revive after being killed, because they don't truly die.

Nito is the god of death, he created death and governs over it. He's not undead, he's DEAD.

Kinda. It's still implied that Oceiros kills the babby halfway through the fight before jumping into stage 2. He slams something into the ground and it makes a blue explosion of liquid. I'm guessing originally it was red to symbolize blood and they would have played the scream and splat. Would have definitely made the fight more impactful. But straight up babby murder is hard to sneak by the censors, or maybe they just thought it was in poor taste, so the idea was scrapped.
>>
>>337639003
Most of those places have gone to hollowed shit as well - we just see the area where the BIG stuff is happening in the games, first flame isses in 1 / 3 and the guy who got big enough to rival the gods in 2

Because the dragons use to push the shit in to all beings they were top dogs until the first flame happened and the Lord souls were born.Gwyn and co somehow happened upon the Lord Souls and decide to fuck the Dragons up and start a new age with them as Gods.
>>
>>337642836
Gwyn is a bitch made faggot who allied with Seath to kill the dragons because he wanted to be the only motherfucker in charge, but then his shitty fire went out and the Chosen Undead had to go kick his ass for being such a faggot.

Seath probably gave him the idea because he's jealous of all the other dragons, since they have scales and can see while he's just a fucking nerd who sits in a library full of books he can't read all day long.

>>337642836

So she fled anal rodeo with flan and then she does something during DaS2(is she even mention or alluded to in DaS2?) and then Pontiff finds the profaned flame goes bat shit crazy becomes buddies with Aldritch , they hunt down the old gods because Aldritch wants power for something and Pontiff wants the old royal family dead.I'm guessing flan got eaten by Aldritch so Gwynevere fled to Lothric where the King falls for her ans starts a new family and then Pontiff starts a war against Lothric for some reason?

People are autistic at accepting any lore that's explicit and not a convoluted mess. I made a plebbit last month for this game after the strategy guide turned out to be shit and because I didn't trust you autists to not ruin it with spoilers. Every time I mentioned it's clear cut Gwynevere is the queen and the divine blessing from 1-3 says she's a god, she's gone away and basically a myth at this point, she's back and now she's the queen people bitched how that's a translation error.

"Then, from the Dark, they came - and found the souls of Lords within the flame. Nito, the first of the dead; The Witch of Izalith, and her Daughters of Chaos; Gwyn, the Lord of Sunlight, and his faithful knights; and the Furtive Pygmy, so easily forgotten..."

From the DaS intro cinematic. Bearing in mind that humanity is born of the dark it's pretty clear.
>>
>>337644578
Its also implied through lore items that the Furtive Pygmy is the ancestor of humanity, where Gwyn and company are ancestors of the gods. They never mention if the gods bear any form of humanity as they are not seemingly subject to hollowing.

>>337645012
Well, Manus was originally human. It doesn't really make sense that he would be without Gwyn and friends not also being human originally, since they all come from the same source. I think that they most likely shed their humanity when they acquired the Lord Souls which is why they don't hollow. Then you get Manus, the only remaining human, to be the progenitor of humanity while Gwyn and the others are the ancestors of the gods even though they were originally human.

>>337645215
Gwyn isn't hollow even though he looks it, he is just old as fuck. He's on his last legs and his power has faded, but he's still sane. Gwyndolin isn't hollow at all and maintains his will to live and a strong sense of purpose in the upkeep and protection of Anor Londo.

Gwyn was hollowfied, he was Cindered. Look at Ludleth. Same deal. As for the Nameless King (if thats who youre referring to), its implied that if he is Gwyn's son, he was stripped of his god status by allying with the Dragon's.
>>
>>337645595
By son I meant the Nameless King, unless you do not share the notion that the Nameless King is the firstborn of Gwyn. Also, how do you know that Gwyn's just aged? He sacrificed everything to kindle the fire, and he certainly looks the part.

That's because he's left pretty vague. I for one found the twin princes the most interesting, or even Gundyr's more interesting than Oceiros.
>>
>>337645683
>he was stripped of his god status
But is it in a literal or honorific sense? If individuals are born as gods as we've established, I struggle to see how you can just take away godhood.
>>
>>337645842
Oh right, I think that Nameless sacrificed his god status when he allied himself with the dragons, as >>337645683 said. That would mean he'd be susceptible to the undead curse because he'd be human, having lost the thing that made him a god. It's kind of a unique mythology in these games, gods and humans aren't fundamentally different kinds of beings.

This is somewhat of a personal theory, but I don't think that Gwyn is hollowed in the game even though he looks it. There are multiple ways to interpret it, one of the compelling ones I've heard is that he's charred, having burned himself sustain the first flame. That would be consistent with his practice of burning anything he could get his hands on (just look at the mountains of ash in the Kiln). Him being hollowed just doesn't really make sense to me given what we learn about hollowing in DaS. It isn't supposed to affect gods at all. The appearance of Gwyn in the final encounter is pretty ambiguous though, I think there's a fair amount of speculation surrounding it.

>>337646323
This is a world where you can literally steal souls. If a soul of lords give godhood, then taking that soul away would remove it

Gods are only gods because they are in possession of Lord Souls. Other than that they're just regular humans.
>>
>>337646176
But twins are tied with Oceiros, their current stance is result of his fault.
>>
>>337646497
So that makes hollowing more relevant to having power and purpose, rather than a set status as 'god.'

Based on what? Individuals of extremely high strength and willpower have hollowed, why can't a god do the same? Much less a god who has become a shell of his former being.

So, hey. Was there a baby? Cause I only heard the whining. Echoing OP: Who was Ocelot?

>>337646627
Well, we see from all games that an undeadthat loses its purpose becomes hollow. With his father dead and the dragons virtually powerless, the nameless king essentially has no purpose now
>>
>>337646753
Hollowfication was a curse create by Gwyn to inspire humans to continue linking the flame and avoid the age of dark. It wouldnt make sense for him to curse the gods too
>>
>>337640821
Eh, I'd still fuck him.

>>337646461

>>337647217
That's exactly what I was saying.

>>337647019
Gwyn didn't create the undead curse intentionally, it was a consequence of trying to unnaturally prolong the Age of Fire.

>>337646753
I was actually wrong. I forgot about this, but he gave his Lord Soul to Seath and so by the time you fight him he's just a regular human and thus would be susceptible to the curse and to hollowing. Sorry about that.

>>337618375
Ocelotte is the 4th child of Oceiros, the King of Lothric, and Gwynevere, then known as the queen of Lothric.

Their children go in order of older to youngest:

Lorian: A great knight who was extremely successful and stomping demon ass. As evidenced by his sword:

"Before Lorian embraced his brother's curse, he was a knight who single handedly slayed the demon prince, but the victory eternally scorched his sword with flame."

Lothric: The chosen one prophesized to link the fire. He was sickly and required Lorian's aid to do some. Aid that Lorian gave willingly, though their quest cost him his voice and the use of his legs. As evidenced by numerous lore pieces.

Lothic sword:

"Young Lothric was meant to be a champion, and was expected to wield this platinum sword, but some things will remain distant dreams forever."

Gertrude: The only daughter who was seduced by "angels" and was imprisoned in the great archives because this "faith" went against the traditional Lords

"The Queen's holy maiden Gertrude was visited by an angel, who revealed this tale to her.

Despite losing both her sight and voice, she was determined to record the tale. Ordinary men cannot decipher her fragmentary scrawl, nor comprehend how it became the foundation of the Angelic faith of Lothric."

and Ocelotte who we don't get much information on, but it seems to be that Oceiros found the Duke's Archive, got into some crystal Seathe / Logan shit, and did something to their youngest son. Whatever it was that he did, it was enough to drive Gwynevere away.

This is referenced by:

"The Queen of Lothric, married to the former King Oceiros, was initially revered as a goddess of fertility and bounty. After giving birth to Ocelotte, her youngest, she quietly disappeared."

Isn't Ocelotte the dragonkin you find and kill in the secret room behind the Oceiros bonfire? My idea is that they locked up him up (or he locked himself up) with his mutant baby and over time his relationship with his son deteriorated to the point of him running away and hiding in the secret area.

From some asshole translator:

"Holy water said to have been blessed by the queen of Lothric. She was the wife to the previous king Osroeth, and even compared to a goddess of fertility and bounty, but she is said to have disappeared after giving birth to their youngest child, Ocelotte."

-She is COMPARED to a goddess of fertility and bounty, and this wording suggests that she is almost definitely not said goddess. This is probably what the wording "revered as" tried to convey.

-The wording for "disappeared" implies that she did so of her own accord.

The fact that there are paintings of Gwynevere in Anor Londo that look exactly like the illusion would disprove that. Don't try and say the paintings could be inaccurate too, since there are accurate statue and painting depictions of Gwyn and Gwyndolin there as well.

It's a Gwynevere parallel, yes. Doesn't mean it's her.

>Leonhart uses Moonlight shotel. Basically THE darkmoon weapon, connecting him to Gwyn's children...
Gwynevere has no relation to the Darkmoon.


>Invade him in Gwynevere's room. He goes on about defiling her soul and what not, which is REALLY weird dialog choice.
>You get her soul, which turns into

You get this from a Pisaca in Dark Souls, not from Gwynevere. It's just a Princess Guard miracle. Again, connected to Gwynevere, but this doesn't mean the Pisaca was Gwynevere either.

>Look at the mangrub on her bed with her. Unlike -every- other mangrub, that one doesn't have arms or a face. It's SUPER fucked up... 10/10 my working theory is that -is- Ocelotte after she was unable to change him back to a normal person.
