There is the Ancient race of lords, there were two type in the end the greater ones like Gywn and his children, velka, the Witch, and so on. There were also the lesser kinds like the silver knights and the Four Great knights of Gwyn Artorias, Ornstien and alike. The old dragon slayer could be many things, it could be a manifestation of the corruption that has taken hold of Dranglic, he could be a knight inspired by the legends of Dragon Slayer Ornstien. As for the fact he has a leo ring or perhaphs the leo ring, well it could be a very well made copy as the craftsmen in Dranglic seem to have great skill based on the various weapons and armour found in the game, or it could very well be the origional ring. And as to how the origional got from Lordran to Dranlic that is speculative at best. As a note to the apperance of the Old Dragon Slayers Armour it seems to be made from Bradden steel or even Geisteel rather then the golden/brass like metal that Ornstien's armour was forged from, this could be an indication he was simply inspired to be like Ornstien rather than being him.
