Some undead champion who gave the undead purpose and prevented the hollowing of many. That is all it states in the lore section, though I personally believe that this undead champion could have been an ashen one who forsook his duty, most likely because he believed the fading of the fire was inevitable. Not able to die and having nowhere to go, the guy somehow ended up in the painting and made it his home, and upon encountering the many forsaken undead in the painting who had all resided to the idea of going hollow the champ decided to help his neighbours and thus organised the tournament. Maybe the constant fighting subjected the participants to a bloodlust, something similar to the bloodlust the old hunters in BB succumbed to, and while nobody did go hollow, their condition was no better than that since they turned into mindless killing machines similar to the outrider knights. At some point before he turned insane the champion took up an apprentice who had a greatwolf for a companion. The apprentice trained under the champion and sometime after that the champion died due to some unknown reasons, and out of respect for his/her mentor the apprentice became the gravetender and together with that asshole wolf guard the grave of the champion
