* BodyHorror
* BrutalHonesty: He's very open about the fact that all his wares are stolen, and that, should the player die, he'll sell his/her belongings, too!
* CampStraight
* EvilLaugh: "Thank you kindly! Hee hee hee hee!"
* ICallItVera: Has an wooden basket that he calls Yulia, which he constantly talks to, and he believes that "she" is in love with him. It's played in a somewhat sad fashion if the player opts to kill him - he dies calling "her" name.
* IfYouDieICallYourStuff
* {{Jerkass}}: Don't buy anything from him, and he tells you to go jump off a cliff. Although he does eventually warm up to the player, should they purchase from him often.
** JerkassWoobie: If he warms up to the player, he will tell them of how he used to frequently have stones thrown at him for being Undead.
* RobbingTheDead: Most if not all of his wares are stolen from corpses.
!!Undead Merchant (Female)
--> '''Voiced by:''' Clare Corbett
->''"This is a wonderful place, don't you think? We have water, moss, moisture, these nice iron bars... I like it here, I really do."''
An Undead selling her wares in the Lower Section of the Undead Burg, near the shortcut between the main section of the Undead Burg and Firelink Shrine, across from the entrance to The Depths. Has a somewhat unhealthy obsession with moss.
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Flirts with the player character occasionally. It comes off as a bit creepy.
* BiTheWay: She flirts with the player regardless of gender.
* BodyHorror
* CharacterFilibuster: Should the player decide to attack her, she goes off on a long and ''very'' psychotic rant.
* CloudCuckoolander
!!Crestfallen Merchant
--> '''Voiced by:''' Andy Gathergood
->''"Ahh, you think you're different? That you can handle it? Yes, I remember that feeling. For I was the same."''
A merchant wearing a suit of steel armor found in Sen's Fortress, trapped and depressed about his situation. He is the only merchant to sell Titanite before the 1.04 patch, so killing him is not advised.
* TheEeyore
* IfYouDieICallYourStuff
* {{Jerkass}}: Mentions [[BrutalHonesty looting off the player's corpse]] were they to die.
* LaughingMad: He'll let out a pretty disturbing giggle during the above-mentioned dialogue about looting the player's corpse.
* NotSoDifferent: He believes the player and himself to be no different to the denizens of Sen's Fortress.
* RobbingTheDead

!!Domhnall of Zena
--> '''Voiced by:''' Matt Morgan
->''"I have this funny feeling we'll meet again soon. And we'll make another fine trade, of course!"''
A mysterious and quirky merchant from the ancient land of Zena who sells unique armors. Originally found in The Depths near the entrance to Blighttown, he'll move shop to the lower platform of the sewer aqueduct leading to the Undead Burg.
* ActualPacifist: Although he will use a sword and shield against the player if they decide to attack him.
* CatchPhrase: "Ah, siwmae." [[note]]Siwmae is actually an informal greeting in the Welsh language, meaning "how goes it?"[[/note]]
* CollectorOfTheStrange: How he managed to get the armor of bosses you defeated (INCLUDING the Final Boss), we will never know.
--> I adore trinkets and oddities, so I trade for them.
* NiceGuy: The guy is very open and friendly. And while other merchants will berate you if you don't buy anything from them, Domhnall will happily state he knows you'll make a fine trade eventually.
* NiceHat: His unusual golden horned helmet. Which, interestingly, is actually based [[http://www.royalarmouries.org/visit-us/leeds/leeds-galleries/tournament-gallery/maximilian-i/the-horned-helmet-1-1 on a helmet from real life]].
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The triple-shot crossbow Avelyn was originally his before the developers turned it into an elusive treasure. It still shows up as [[Characters/DarkSoulsArtoriasOfTheAbyss Chester]]'s trademark weapon, though.

!!Andre of Astora
--> '''Voiced by:''' Sean Barrett
->''"As you've noticed, this land is flush with the mad and wicked. You won't make it through the night without employing my services!"''
An aging blacksmith from Astora who has set up shop in the old Parish chapel leading to both Sen's Fortress and Darkroot Garden. He initially upgrades standard weapons and armor up to rank +5, but can eventually upgrade up to rank +15 and gains Raw ascension, Divine ascension, and Occult ascension with the correct Embers (Large Ember, Very Large Ember, Divine Ember, Large Divine Ember, and Dark Ember).
* {{Badass}}: If the player decides to attack him, does Andre use his hammer or another weapon? Nope! He instead uses [[GoodOldFisticuffs punches]] and ''drop-kicks'', and all of them are ''really'' powerful.
** BadassBeard
** BadassGrandpa
* CoolOldGuy
* GentleGiant
* NiceGuy
* WalkingShirtlessScene
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Andre was originally supposed to be a descendant of Gwyn, guard the entrance to the Firelink Shrine, and would guide the player down a secret passage hidden behind a statue to his forge.
!!Rickert of Vinheim
--> '''Voiced by:''' Adam Sopp
->''"There's nothing to talk about. We're both cursed; Undead. But what's there, ''really'', to moan about?"''
A magic-based blacksmith from Vinheim, and a self-proclaimed master of this work. He has secluded himself into a cell near the Firelink Shrine entrance to the New Londo Ruins, as to keep himself from attacking others should he finally Hollow. He starts with basic Magic ascension (rank +5), but can be given the Large Magic Ember and Enchanted Ember for advanced Magic ascension and Enchanted ascension respectively.
* BadassBoast: "I'll forge you a Rickert masterpiece; a weapon to make a legend out of you..."
* DeadpanSnarker
* {{Hikikomori}}: Given how [[NintendoHard brutal]] the [[TheNecrocracy area]] he's in can be, even compared to the rest of Lordran, this is rather justified. Even the Hollows around him are only despairing.
* InsufferableGenius: He's a bit full of himself. He's boastful of his Vinheim origins, brags about being the best smith from there, and is especially scornful of "those uppity scholars" and of any Ember he can't work with.
* NiceHat
* ShoutOut: His name is a rather obvious one to ''{{Berserk}}'', as is his profession as a blacksmith.
!!Giant Blacksmith
--> '''Voiced by:''' Daniel Flynn
->''"You come, I forge, we talk. You good friend. I very happy."''
A literal giant, he performs his work in a room near Gwynevere's Chambers. Appropriately, he starts with Lightning weapon ascension and can gain Crystal ascension via the Crystal Ember. The Giant is the only blacksmith that can forge Boss Soul weapons.
* BerserkButton: Do ''not'' let him catch you trying to steal the Hawk Ring.
** He actually doesn't care if you take it. The only problem is that it's in a treasure box between him and the corner, and it can be hard to squeeze through to reach it.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* GentleGiant
* {{Hulkspeak}}
* YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: He uses it sparingly, but it is pretty noticable, given [[{{Hulkspeak}} the way he usually talks]].
--> I hath shiny-shiny.
!!Blacksmith Vamos
--> '''Voiced by:''' Daniel Flynn
->''"If that'll be all, then be gone with you! You'll spoil my focus!"''
A no-nonsense skeleton blacksmith found in the Catacombs who focuses solely on his work, meaning he doesn't sell weapons. He starts with basic Fire ascension (rank +5), and can gain advanced Fire ascension and Chaos ascension via the Large Flame Ember and Chaos Flame Ember respectively.
* BadassBeard: A skeleton with a beard. ''Made of chains''.
* CatchPhrase: "You'll spoil my focus."
* DarkIsNotEvil: He's a large, imposing-looking skeleton, and his opening cutscene makes it look as though he's going to be an enemy - up until he starts grumpily muttering to the player.
* DemBones
* {{Expy}}: He's essentially a giant skeletal version of Blacksmith Ed from ''DemonsSouls''.
* GrumpyOldMan: He has this personality most of the time, although he will lighten up a little should the player provide him with a specific ember.
* HatesSmallTalk / NoSocialSkills: In just about all of his lines, he mentions that he's not there to chitchat, has nothing helpful to talk about in the first place, and if the player doesn't have any business for him, they should buzz off...
** BlatantLies:...But if the player persists in pestering him, he'll clue the player in on the locations of several of the most advanced and valuable embers. [[HypocriticalHumor While prefacing these helpful facts with the irritable claim that he doesn't have anything to say, naturally.]]

!!Griggs of Vinheim
--> '''Voiced by:''' Blake Ritson
->''"No, the reason I seek Logan is... Well, it's really my own conceit, now isn't it?"''
Big Hat Logan's apprentice, following his teacher through Lordran. [[spoiler:He eventually turns Hollow in Sen's Fortress while searching for his master yet again.]]
* BadassBookworm
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Given his nature as a spy, some fans speculate he might actually be this.
* DistressedDude: He somehow got himself locked in a house. He wasn't in any immediate danger, but he just got himself stuck.
* {{Expy}}: He’s similar to [[DemonsSouls Freke's apprentice]] in that he's the apprentice of the resident master wizard, of whom he got separated from and is currently looking for. The similarities end there, though, as Griggs is ''much'' friendlier than [[{{Jerkass}} Freke's apprentice]].
* NiceGuy: He's the polar opposite of his counterpart from ''DemonsSouls''.
* NiceHat
* StealthExpert: He's a spy of Vinheim, and thanks to the Slumbering Dragoncrest Ring and the Hush Miracle, he is most likely this.
!!Big Hat Logan
--> '''Voiced by:''' Ian Thompson
->''"This place is melting my mind. The inactivity is repressive."''
A powerful sorcerer with a insatiable thirst for knowledge, wandering Lordran for the Duke's Archives in Anor Londo. [[spoiler:After you repeatedly rescue him and buy all of his one-time inventory, he goes mad before attacking the player in the highest room of the Duke's Archives.]]
* BadassBookworm
* BlueBlood: Implied to be of high social status.
* EnlightenmentSuperpowers: What WordOfGod says about him being [[spoiler:naked in the Duke's Archives when he goes mad.]]
* {{Expy}}: He's essentialy a replacement for Sage Freke of ''Demon's Souls''.
* [[spoiler:FullFrontalAssault: Strips naked in The Duke's Archives. According to WordOfGod he's trying to emulate Seath's scalelessness. It could also make sense in that [[FridgeBrilliance you have to be naked to use the Dragon Stone items.]]]]
* [[spoiler:GoMadFromTheRevelation: Whatever Logan found in Seath's Archives, it wasn't good for his psychological state.]]
* [[spoiler:InsaneEqualsViolent: Following his SanitySlippage.]]
* LonersAreFreaks: The description of his Big Hat says that Logan was so antisocial that he wore the hat as a means of blocking out noise and people's stares to enhance his concentration.
* [[spoiler:MadScientist: Attempts to recreate Seath's crystal breath techniques through sorcery. The experimentation drives him insane.]]
* NiceHat: His namesake steeple hat with the rather ridiculously wide brim.
** The developers really think so, having chose said hat design as a representation of Logan being a venerable sage.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: At least 100 years old.
* RobeAndWizardHat: He is known for this.
* [[spoiler:SanitySlippage]]
* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: In the Duke's Archives after being rescued, he will develop and sell powerful crystal versions of sorceries, and after the player has bought them all and killed Seath [[spoiler: he gets completely lost in the knowledge, starts mumbling incoherently and doesn't even recognise the player anymore. After this, he'll disappear from his usual spot and show up nearly naked and completely insane in the room Seath is first fought in. Upon killing him, it's revealed he went so far as to try (and partially failed, thankfully) to replicate Seath's curse-inducing crystal breath.]]

!!Laurentius of the Great Swamp
--> '''Voiced by:''' Andy Gathergood
->''"[Pyromancy] meshes poorly with advanced culture, and pyromancers are considered rather unsavoury. Which is fine, as I never got along with anybody anyway."''
A pyromancer who is implied to be the former apprentice of Salaman the Master Pyromancer. He became ecstatic once he turned Undead, believing himself chosen to become more attuned to the arts. [[spoiler:Meets his end if you tell him about the Pyromancy of the Daughters of Chaos (have any Chaos-type pyromancy or Quelana's ascended Pyromancy Flame). He journeys to Blighttown to search for her, but he fails in his attempt and turns Hollow.]]
* ChromeChampion: Not himself, but he can teach the Iron Flesh pyromancy to the Chosen Undead.
* CursedWithAwesome: How he initially views being Undead. It gave him the chance to come to Lordran so he could possibly master his pyromancy the way the Witch of Izalith had.
* DistressedDude: He's trapped in a barrel when you first meet him.
* IOweYouMyLife
* InTheHood
* MundaneMadeAwesome: One of the pyromancies he teaches induces sweating to reduce fire damage.
* NiceGuy
* PermaStubble
* PlayingWithFire
* SpeechImpediment: He has a bit of a stutter. It probably fi-fits with his so-social impairment.
* VerbalTic: A slight one. He'll frequently pause mid-sentence.
!!Quelana of Izalith
--> '''Voiced by:''' Jenny Funnell
->''"Hmm... A mere Undead, yet you can see me? Fascinating..."''
One of the seven Daughters of Chaos and Mother of Pyromancy. [[spoiler:She is the only daughter of the Witch of Izalith to not become corrupted by the events that created the Bed of Chaos. If you accomplish the steps to encounter her, she will eventually request that you defeat the Bed of Chaos [[MercyKill to put an end to the Witch of Izalith's suffering]]. After you do this, she rewards you with the Fire Tempest spell and disappears.]]
* BrokenBird
* CynicalMentor: She doesn't really carry a whole lot of faith in the PlayerCharacter and even will believe him/her will have died after being absent for a long time. But she'll train them as long as the souls are good.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Quelana starts out pretty cold and dismissive of the PlayerCharacter. She gets ''much'' friendlier after [[spoiler:you MercyKill her mother.]]
* DirtyCoward: Sees herself as this.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Seems to be a thing with the Daughters of Chaos.
* TheFaceless: Her face is pretty hard to see clearly, given the hood she wears, but you ''can'' see the bottom of it.
* InTheHood
* PlayingWithFire: She teaches the most advanced and powerful pyromancy spells. In fact, she is the progenitor of modern pyromancy.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She and her sisters have existed since before the First Age of Fire, helping their mother defeat the ancient dragons.
* {{Tsundere}}: Calls you a fool rather frequently. From the sounds of things, she thought much the same of Salaman.
** Amusingly, she actually seems to mean the [[TheChosenZero fool]] bit at first, but as she defrosts "fool" seems to become her [[AffectionateNickname pet name]] for you instead.
!!Dusk of Oolacile
--> '''Voiced by:''' Emma Pierson
->''"From my home I was taken, and banished to a plane of distortion. It was there that thou came to my rescue."''
The spirit of a princess from the long-dead magic kingdom of Oolacile, where they specialized in illusion magic.
* DeadAllAlong: She's been dead for centuries. From her perspective, you're speaking to her from the distant future.
* DistressedDamsel: Needs to be rescued twice. First from the Crystal Golem in the base game and then from [[spoiler:Manus]] in the new content.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses
* [[GirlInABox Girl In A Golem]]
* LastOfHerKind: Possibly. There don't appear to be any other living or sane humans living in Oolacile in the DLC content.
* PimpedOutDress
* PointyEars: Her concept art in the Design Works artbook. Not seen in-game due to the limitations of the character creation engine.
* [[RapunzelHair Rapunzel Braid]]: Again, her concept art in the artbook. And again, not seen in-game possibly due to the hairstyle meshes needing to be at the max shoulder-length.
* SilkHidingSteel: Definitely. Kind, submissive, eager to assist the player and implied to be a warrior before her death.
* SuspendedAnimation: Was inside that Golem for a very long time, considering Oolacile is no more.
** ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Possible, due to being trapped in the Crystal Golem. After you summon her, you find a female corpse with her unique armor set, implying she might have [[DeadAllAlong died long ago]] and you're summoning her before she passed away.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: She was originally supposed to summon you to rescue her instead of freeing her spirit from the Golem. The new content plays with and rebuilds this, [[spoiler:but you find out that ''Artorias'' was the one trying to rescue her. You just get dragged into it.]]
