Crestfallen Merchant

Lore

The Crestfallen Merchant is a knight of Berenike who attempted to assail Sen's Fortress, but failed along with his fellow knights.

Since that time he has lived in Sen's Fortress, scavenging armor and supplies from the heroes and warriors on the verge of going hollow as they attempt to overcome the Fortress to enter Anor Londo. He sells these items for souls to wishful contenders like the Chosen Undead to stave off hollowing himself.

Dialogue

• First encounter

Ah, what? What? Who are you?
Ahh, another Undead, eh? I took on Sen's Fortress alone…
But I'm no different from those vile creatures… I was driven by conceit…
Ahh, you think you're different? That you can handle it?
Yes, I remember that feeling. For I was the same.
… So, let me help you out. With your soul-searching.

• Talking

Let me give you a nibble of advice.
Don't even consider visiting Anor Londo. Not in your state.
For a century, they have tried, and failed.
The Knight King Rendal, Black Iron Tarkus, and even Logan himself.
You won't stand a chance. You'll be eaten alive.

Where do I get all my things?
Stripped off the corpses of fools like yourself.
It isn't easy. I have to catch them just before they go hollow.
Don't worry. I'll be there to claim your trinkets. Gazing at your final twisted grimace!
Gee hee hee hee hee!
