I love creating stories for my characters in any game. So skip it, you won't lose anything. 19 19 20 - Also this post contains spoilers to Dark Souls series, so if you didn't play them yet I highly recommend.

I lost countless hours and souls - exploring dead worlds with avatars of my conscious, bonding with last survivors of the age of Fire. In 3 games I spend days and weeks, completed challenge runs and watched a wholesome community of users across the globe also being emotionally attached to games that do not forgive, but care about the players all the same. 24 + Dark Souls is something I never knew I'd enjoy before trying it out when Dark Souls Remastered came out.

It mostly boiled down to giving my character a back story and planning their equipment and decisions in less statistical way. If not for this, I'd not link the fire as many times as I did. 26 + Also, because it's an *RPG* that means I get to *roleplay*!

If not for this, I wouldn't have linked the fire as many times as I did. 27 27 28 28 So *You* are going to read some *lore* of my characters from /Dark Souls 3/. /What/ motivated them to be *Ashen Ones* they are, /What/ I think of them and /What/ happened after I stopped playing as them. 29 29 ··· 33 33 34 34 ** Dark Flames of the Keeper 35 35 ___ 36 - Slipping in and out, or not even that. There is nothing but darkness after all, might be just remembering that you exist. Remembering what was, before abyss swallowed you whole... 36 + Slipping in and out, or not even that. There is nothing but darkness after all, it might be just remembering that you exist. Remembering what was, before the abyss swallowed you whole... 37 37 38 38 *The flame*, so fragile yet so alluring. How many burned their hands on yet to be cold ashes? You can count at least one fool. As a Fire Keeper, one must tender the fire, tireless watchers, suffering ladies. You just couldn't handle it. One of many, lost to the fire, ash to ash, just another human. 39 39 40 - Yet, you reborn, as the one who shall link the fire. But, if you were destined to bring the light back in to this world, why it's so dark in here? Uh, yes, Alluring *flames*, Vilhelm hold it tight, but an crushing defeat after an near endless fall made him reconsider Church's teachings. 40 + Yet, you are reborn, as the one who shall link the fire.

Uh, yes, Alluring *flames*, Vilhelm held it tight, but a crushing defeat after a near endless fall made him reconsider Church's teachings. 41 41 42 - Now look at you. With but a dress you inherited from your late sister, and an /Onyx blade/, that can create it's own fire. Why would you even need this linking nonsense? So that another poor lass could die for thous dammed *flames*, this world suffered enough, let it have it's end. Fitting of your black *flame*. 42 + Now look at you.

And *Yoel of Londor* promised great half of that, in exchange for the looks, and the darkness withing you. But all bargains end with the trader's profit. You came a great length, but unscalable wall made of /Dragon Steel/ was all it took to lose hope. Even if for a bit, you plunged into the abyss, there is no going back. Hollowing can't be stopped. 44 + But for that you need power. And *Yoel of Londor* promised a great half of that, in exchange for the looks, and the darkness within you.

That's all it amounted to, all pointless in death and in undeath. 47 47 48 48 *** Some lore for the emo mess above 49 49 ___ 50 - So, that was a story I made up for my first Dark Souls 3 character that was abandonment because I couldn't keep playing at 20 fps in 450p while being wrecked for 100th time by /Dragonslayer Armour/. I am a big *ymfah* fan (/no, I don't know how to pronounce it/), and before starting playing DS3, I have watched {https://youtu.be/vUctR5y2JLc}[this video] and got inspired to have Onyx blade be my first proper weapon and complete the whole game with it. So I cheesed Vilhelm by dropping him off a cliff, and learned some dark pyromancy from Karla. Also got the cool fire keeper's dress for 20K souls, best investment ever. 50 + So, that was a story I made up for my first Dark Souls 3 character that was abandonment because I couldn't keep playing at 20 fps in 450p while being wrecked for 100th time by /Dragonslayer Armour/.

In most other games I don't care about that, it mostly depends on the mood or game mechanics. But all characters moving forward will be girls. And on a better PC too, because my brother let me play DS3 on his beefy ahhh pc. So I created a new character and went for my first 100% of the game. 52 + Also, I only create female characters in DS3, idk why.

Labyrinthy catacombs and locked prisons replaced their purpose of keeping dead in peace. That's where your family resides, along with your *sister* that lost all hope on church's teachings and turned hollow husk of a joyful little rascal you remember. 56 + Cemeteries lost their meaning long before your time.

A Sword for hire, going to west with your trusty *Black Blade*. Kinda embarrassing naming a simple katana something like that, but it's a testament to how you grew with it from a young age. 58 + With words "I was never a *deep* believer, nor does anyone keep me here anymore", you started to wander.

And you begun to wonder, if there is something more you could do, something greater than fading away into legends of countless swordsmen, feeding stories of blood and fear. 60 + But as long as you kept the edge thin and stance strong, no foe could hold a candle to your superior swordplay. And you began to wonder, if there is something more you could do, something greater than fading into the legends of countless swordsmen, feeding stories of blood and fear. 61 61 62 62 And that's the story before you Kindled the fire, before you fought your way trou gods, demons. Making *Firelink Shrine* your new home, and warming it up with so many comrades. Before you unraveled the truth of Painted worlds, and Got a glimpse into what future holds for everyone. 63 63 64 - But you'd do anything to make your dear *sister* rest the way she'd want to, just for a moment you will create joy in this sorrow lands and may it reborn, again, anew. 64 + But you'd do anything to make your dear *sister* rest the way she'd want to, just for a moment you will create joy in this sorrowful lands and may it be reborn, again, anew. 65 65 66 66 *** True Heroine 67 67 ___ 68 - Thus concludes the second character story. I beat the whole game, including DLCs with her, so she is truly THE Main Character as of now. I can remember trying {https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Slave+Knight+Gael+(Boss)}[Gaele] on her, and listening to a {https://youtu.be/F5V5fxKVLXo}[Jpop song] on loop for an hour. If my blood capillaries were weak, I'd bleed from my nose - that how much joy the fight gave me. 68 + Thus concludes the second character story.

It was less of aesthetically cool, but gameplay oriented build, so I don't even remember what she wore, I think a mix of {https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Brass+Set}[Brass Set] and {https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Sellsword+Set}[Sellsword set]. 72 + I really liked the Two-handed R2 of the {https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Black+Blade}[Black Blade], so I based the whole build around waiting for the moment to strike absolute nastiest blow onto the opponent.

No dragon cults, nor glory chapels of so called gods will accept this simple truth. 79 + 78 80 ** This is not the end of me, this is the beginning 79 81 ___ 80 - Hello again, hope you didn't cringe to death from over the top scratches on the wall that some schizo calls "stories". Well, you always rise again anyways. 82 + Hello again, hope you didn't cringe to death from over-the-top scratches on the wall that some schizo calls "stories".

It's just a glimpe into what makes games fun for me, and I hope it can inspire you to go beyond "META", to strife for more than perfection. 84 + In the end, stories from this post don't make sense.
