Magerold of Lanafir

Magerold of Lanafir is a character and merchant in Dark Souls II.

Location
Magerold of Lanafir can be found sitting in the same manner as the Undead Male Merchant from Dark Souls, surrounded by his belongings and wares in a side corridor near the first bonfire in the Iron Keep.

He sells many useful items, including a Fragrant Branch of Yore for 7,500 souls, and Jester Thomas' armour set. Uniquely for a merchant, he is able to lower a player's Faith or Intelligence requirement for Sorceries and Miracles in return for souls.

He will also gift the player with a +1 varient of the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring after spending 16,000 souls in his shop and exhausting his dialogue.

The stairs near his location lead to a Pharros' Lockstone.

Plot
Magerold can induct players into the Dragon Remnants covenant if they have a Petrified Dragon Egg in their inventory.
