Dark Souls 1: Ranking NPCs Strength Based on Lore.
With Elden Ring's DLC around the Corner, let's revisit Dark Soul 1s lore by assessing who is the strongest NPC according ONLY to the lore.
As always these are all my opinions, though large amounts of research go into videos such as these, there will always be some level of subjective world building required by Souls Games, you're likely to have a different opinion - that's fine, and is a cornerstone of why Dark Souls discourse is as alive as well today as it was the day the first game was released!
A huge shoutout to the below for helping me contextualise a few entries:

    Would the soul of cinder still be the strongest then? It's the combination of everyone who's ever linked the fire, right? I'm not quite as knowledgeable on Dark Souls lore as I am for Bloodborne or Elden Ring, but I heard a few times that everybody who's ever linked the flame is just supposed to be everybody who's beat DS1, right? That's a lot of people who are *very* powerful.

    Excuse me? Grandahl has the chime, not the Lurker, you can get it by killing him without beating the Dark Lurker. You just made up that story, in fact, the Soul of the Dark Lurker only says he is a creature that lurks in the dark chasm, which is itself a manifestation of Manus, like the Dark Queens, there is no mention or hint anywhere that it was a paladin. As to why Grandahl of all people has an incorruptible chime... Honestly, no f*cking idea, judging by the description he may have just found it there before he ended up wheel chair bound. But still, you could at least read the wiki before taking your headcanons to RUclips.

    @CrescentCrusader99 15 дней назад

    The Dragon Chime can also be used for Hexes. Having faith doesn’t mean you’re automatically pro-gods because you can also have faith in dark beings. Velka is believed to be the wife of Manus/Furtive Pygmy and her spells require faith. The Dark Lurker shoots darkness at us out of his bare hands meaning the power is coming from his body as opposed to praying to higher beings and getting their powers momentarily. He doesn’t shoot lightning which is the power of the gods. His soul having a bright colour is just because he’s a powerful being. Literally every being in DS1 has the same coloured souls with certain exceptions like DLC boss souls.

    You say "So high/low on this list" and other similar iterations for every character, making it monotonous and the attempt at emphasizing the character's importance becomes muddied. Maybe break it up by rerefercing the characters # placement on the list again at the end. This would work well with characters like Aldia who you went into a length and detailed explanation on. Refercing its number on the list again would be a nice refresh of its current standing and open a segway into the next character on the list. Thanks for the vid!

    • @ThefrenziedMercury
      @ThefrenziedMercury 3 дня назад

      Me too, even on reddit, people tend to overstimate Gael believing he's like the ultimate lord with the full power of the dark soul when he actually took a dark soul that was dried in the blood of the pygmies and couldn't even evolve it into an abyss like Manus did. Soul of Cinder is far more powerful since we actually see what a god and a lord are like in power even showed in a culmination of strength.

    Idc who the most powerful, it's anyway MC. You can be 1000 times the boss, you're still killable even with fist by a naked man that you killed before, just because he has the power to come back after death.
