Hmmm, My curiosity is peaked. I shall engaged in jolly co-operation when more information is revealed. Long may the sun shine!

@Argetlam350 Just the right amount of jolly cooperation, glad to have piqued your interest!

I'm also eager to hear more! Since this is pre-DS2, would it be possible to have a character that's an ancestor to one of those characters, like Alva or Raime?

@Kafka Komedy I don't see why not, the story is taking place in a darkening Anor Londo and I'll be leaning into the idea of setting up the events that followed to DS3.

@Kafka Komedy I'm also open to ideas, world building suggestions and etc.

Tags updated and Character info being added.

Seeing the premise now, reminds me of a mod that currently is being worked on by a group of people. Still early but it similarly takes place only shortly after the first game's ending. New bosses, NPC, mechanics, etc. Called Dark Souls: Nightfall-

@Argetlam350 Wow that's a funny coincidence. lol

Actually forget that, I'm not gonna bog this down with power scaling items & enemies. Just be smart and not take on a Taurus Demon with a knife and nothing else.

Oh boy, you should not have let me contribute I am gonna throw so much fanservicey shit out here. Feel free to take whatevers actually usable.

So we know Gwyndolin survives DS1 no matter what the chosen undead does, maybe he eggs on the cult? Also, Yorksha's Dark Moon Knights could be a thing, since we know it was an actual knighthood pre-DS3.

Corvians should totally be a thing, though given all we really know about them is a connection to the Painted worlds, I have no idea how they would integrate at all. Maybe the Chosen Undead entering the painting sort of 'unlocked' it and the Corvians from there could go back to Anor Londo? Maybe Priscilla too, since Gwyndolin is clearly much better about halfbreeds than his dad.

Ornstein also survived DS1 and journeyed a while before finally finding Archdragon Peak. Maybe him leaving his post caused a power vacuum or something?

Maybe the start of the wolf blood cult that would become the Undead Legion of Farron? Or the backstory of the women who would go to found the Sable Church of Londor could be part of the plot? Also we know that by the time of DS3 (and probably even DS2) very few demons remain. Maybe there was some kind of genocide? Also, Rosaria was most likely a god and was probably born by post DS1 so she could show up, pre-corruption.

I'm going to take those and use them, all of them are under consideration. Character sheet template to be finished soon!

Oh, I wanted to ask, are we all going to be undead? Or could we be regular humans, or maybe even other races like giants?

@Kafka Komedy Human are rare, as humanity is fading with the fires dying. Now as for other races I would be fine to let one player play a giant, however as for other races I'd need to be convinced to let someone play a snekman or a corvian.

Well you've gotten my interest.

I may or may not have an idea for a Hollow who's got a personal grudge against the cult.

@ZAVAZggg Glad to have grabbed your interest, love the idea of a personal grudge.

Well, they need something to keep from going fully Hollow. Nothing quite as strong as hate to keep one motivated.

@ZAVAZggg Nothing soothes the souless like a good slaughter.

I'm not going too deep into the philosophy of the series though, because uh I don't have time nor the desire to watch hours worth of lore videos.
