Evidence for this record
Sources: darksouls.wikidot.com · steamcommunity.com
- Secondary source: A cross-check source, kept apart from the primary page.
- Third-party research: Published by an unaffiliated researcher and recorded as their finding.
2 fields in this record are marked not documented: the sources checked gave no value, so none is guessed.
Overview
- Location
- The Catacombs, near the fourth Necromancer. Reached by dropping onto a corpse holding a Green Titanite Shard, then onto a broken wooden plank, then through a hole; a cutscene opens access to his room from the Skeleton Wheel area.
- Access condition
- Must navigate the specific drop-down path described above; access opens after the triggered cutscene.
- Can die
- yes
- Death or hostility conditions
- Can be killed by Bonewheel Skeletons wandering into his room from the surrounding area. Takes bonus damage from Divine weapons, like other skeleton-type enemies. Can also be made hostile by direct player attack.
- Keeps selling if hostile survives
- not documented
- Dialogue progression
- Requests the Large Flame Ember and the Chaos Flame Ember separately. Answering "No" to an ember request makes him keep asking on future visits. Drops unique items if killed (specific drop list not itemized in the source excerpt).
- Relocates
- no
- Relocation note
- none recorded
- Note
- Update 2026-09-24: checked a fourth table, third-party research tables, which has no price/cost column of any kind -- ruling out a fourth candidate source.

- Reinforcement/ascension per-level soul costs were NOT found anywhere -- likely a UI-calculated value not commonly tabulated by wikis, not a search failure.
