Knight Artorias (騎士アルトリウス), also known as Artorias the Abysswalker, is a character and boss in Dark Souls and a mentioned character in Dark Souls III. He is exclusive to the Artorias of the Abyss DLC.
Location
Knight Artorias is located in the coliseum area of Oolacile Township, at the end of the Royal Wood.
Description
By the time the Chosen Undead encounters him, Artorias is shown to have already been corrupted by the Abyss with his armor looking putrefied, oozing an aura of darkness. His crippled arm is likely the result of Artorias halting the spread from devouring his wolf companion by means of a now missing shield. He possesses a greatsword that has also been consumed, yet is still far from ineffective. Having lost his sanity, the knight moves about in an untamed, beastly manner as he howls beneath the blue shroud of his helm.
Lore
Dark Souls
Sir Artorias was one of the knights at the service of Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight and, thanks to his unmatched skill with a greatsword and unbendable will of steel[1], he became one of Gwyn's most trusted warriors and was rewarded with a fragment of Gwyn's powerful Lord Soul[2]. Along with Ornstein, Ciaran and Gough, he became part of the Four Knights of Gwyn and as a symbol of his association with the order he gained a magical ring with the wolf symbol, which strengthened his poise, making his fighting style with his greatsword more effective[1].
Artorias wore his distinctive azure-blue tassel armor as a symbol of pride and glory[3] and brandished his Greatsword[4] and Greatshield[5]. Artorias was also a dear friend of Ciaran, his companion as another Knight of Gwyn[6]. At a certain point Artorias met Sif, a great grey wolf, and formed a deep bond with it, fighting alongside the fearsome animal like he was his companion[7] to the point that the wolf learned to fight with his greatsword and acquired the power of Artorias' soul[8][9][10].
At some point after Lord Gwyn sacrificed himself to link the fading First Flame, the Primordial Serpent Kaathe began searching for a human strong enough to become the Dark Lord capable of leading humans and usher in an Age of Dark[11]. At some point Kaathe arrived in new Londo and managed to seduce the Four Kings, powerful humans who had received a fragment of Gwyn's Lord Soul[12], to follow his ideals, teaching them the art of Lifedrain so that they could preserve their humanity even while Undead and so cast off the shackles placed upon them by the gods[13][14]. But his dark influence did not stop with the kings and in fact their entire army followed them. The knights of New Londo became Darkwraiths[15], servants of the Dark who learned the art of Lifedrain and used it to absorb humanity[16]. As the Four Kings' were able to open an Abyss in the center of their city, their very bodies were mutated by their freed Dark Soul and the Darkwraiths' armor transformed too[17] as they began to employ the Red Eye Orbs granted by Kaathe[18] to seek humanity and plunge further into the powers of the Dark[19],
A nation of humans freed from the shackles of the Darksign and who not only began to understand the powers of their Dark Soul but had an entire army at their disposal that shared this power represented an unparalleled threat to the gods of Anor Londo who branded the Darkwraiths as diabolical enemies of man and of every living thing[20][21]. For this reason Artorias, as one of the Four Knights of Gwyn, was sent to fight the dark soldiers of New Londo and was given a Silver Pendant to deflect the Dark of the Abyss in its magical forms[22]. However this did not prove sufficient to cross the Abyss of the Four Kings and Artorias was forced to forge a covenant with the "beasts of the Abyss"[23], obtaining a ring that would allow him to cross the Abyss but also cursing his sword in the process[24]. Artorias thus became known as the "Abysswalker" and hunted the Darkwraiths[25] but failed to eliminate the Four Kings and thus close the Abyss of New Londo. Having failed to eliminate the dark threat, an agonizing and terrible decision was made: flooding the entire land of New Londo despite the realization that countless lives and the entire culture of the country would be lost[26]. For this task, sorcerers were called[27] and the feat was accomplished without even evacuating the city's civilians, sealing away the Four Kings, their Darkwraiths and the entire population with them, the victims were thus cursed[28] and became Ghosts roaming the ruins of their country[29].
After his failure with the Four Kings[30]., the Primordial Serpent Kaathe arrived in Oolacile and manipulated the country to upturn the grave of Manus, a primordial man with an extraordinary Dark Soul[31] and dark sorcery skills[32][33], that had been buried beneath the dungeons of their city and resurrect him[34][35]. However, the royal family of Oolacile took the precious broken pendant of Manus for themselves, giving it to Princess Dusk[36]. The wrenching nostalgia connected to his object of obsession and the sincere hope to reclaim it[37] drove Manus mad and his Dark Soul went wild, transforming him into a dark beast eternally seeking his pendant[38]. His immense mass of humanity out of control led to the manifestation of an Abyss that spread, threatening to devour the entire land[39]. The Dark emanating from Manus did not limit itself to generating countless Humanity Phantoms with a will of their own but also influenced the residents of Oolacile, making their humanity go wild and horribly mutating their bodies, bloating their head and opening them with cracks lined with innumerable tiny red eyeballs and protuding brain parts[40].
As the Abyss continued to spread across the land of Oolacile, Knight Artorias came to stop it and confront Manus[41], as the Knight of Gwyn already had experience with fighting the Abyss and its creatures after the events of New Londo and his hunt for the Darkwraiths[42], and possessed a Silver Pendant that protected him from the Dark[43]. Artorias, together with his trusted companion Sif, thus faced Manus[44] but his strength proved insufficient to defeat the Father of the Abyss and he succumbed to the Abyss[45][41]. Wounded by the battle, Artorias used his Cleansing Greatshield to form a barrier to protect Sif leaving a magic barrier to repel the Dark[46]. Artorias, now corrupted to the Soul by the Abyss[47] and with his armor corroded[48], was left to fight alone and wounded the distorted creatures of Oolacile[49].
At one point Manus managed to take possession of his lost pendant, kidnapping Princess Dusk and taking her to his Abyss[50][51]. However, due to a time distortion, Manus found himself chasing a further copy of his pendant, but this one was located in the future[52]. Using his Dark power, Manus snatched the Chosen Undead that found it from the future bringing him to the Oolacile of the past[53]. This Undead would be able to put the corrupted Artorias to rest and succeed his mission, facing Manus and defeating him, thus saving Oolacile from further corruption[54]. Thanks to Elizabeth's confidentiality, the legend spread that Artorias had defeated Manus and his Abyss, omitting the role of the unsung hero to preserve the honor of the knight[55][56]. Ciaran, who had arrived at the location, also requested the Soul of Artorias from the Chosen Undead who had finally put an end to the knight's suffering, with the intention of paying proper respects to her passed dear friend[6].
As centuries passed, the ruins of Oolacile became overgrown and the region became known as the "Darkroot Garden"[57][58], where the remnants of the ancient Guardians of the city still patrol the area as Stone Knights[59]. Sif survived the battle with Manus thanks to the intervention of the Chosen Undead, thus managing to save himself. The wolf inherited Artorias' divine greatsword and the magical ring that had allowed the knight to cross the Abyss[60][61]. The wolf settled in the forest where Artorias' tomb had been erected[62] and, holding his companion's sword in his jaws, continued to fight to guard Artorias' rest[63], slaughtering the numerous Undead who arrived with the intention of plunder the tomb of the legendary knight[64][65].
In addition, Artorias and Sif had become trusted friends of Alvina, a white Great Feline that had lived for centuries since the early Age of Fire[66]. After Artorias' death, Alvina founded the Forest Hunter covenant[67], a clan of hunters bound with the aim of protecting the Darkroot Forest[68] where her friend rested and Sif resided from the many adventurers who invaded it to look for the tomb of the legendary knight[69]. Alvina would try to dissuade those who ventured into the region recently, advising them not to seek Artorias' tomb and that his legends were only fabrications and fairy tales[70].
Dark Souls III
This section of the lore lacks sources and is in need of further expansions and explanations His legacy as a hero lasted for centuries. By the time of Lothric, there was the Undead Legion of Farron, who were commonly called the Abyss Watchers. They partook of wolf blood,[71] and it is said that their souls are bound together and are one with the soul of the "wolf blood master",[72] who is Artorias.[73] Wielding greatswords modeled after his, and fighting in wild ferocious styles, the Legion fought a veritable war with the dark of the Abyss that their master had fought ages past.

Melee strategy
While this boss is rather difficult to predict, he does have a few signs for his attacks, and well-timed rolls prove useful here. Being able to fast-roll is highly advised but not necessary. The player can place themself away from him by about twice his reach at all times, even for melee.
Aerial attacks
- See below for attack name references
When he uses his Somersault Slam attack, the player will want to roll to the right as the camera tilts upward while locked onto him. The player can do this three times and then get in one or two attacks (based on one's weapon) after the third attack lands. Avoid attacking after his Steadfast Leap. Instead use that opportunity to heal or get some distance from him.
Standing attacks
When he uses his Overhand Smash, roll to the right. While he leaves himself open for a few frames, he will usually follow up with his Spinning Slash attack. Therefore, it is best to get some distance from him instead as the Spinning Slash attack is difficult to get away from when it begins.
Charging attacks
With his Charging Slash move the player will always want to roll backwards from where he intends to land the attack. After successfully dodging this attack, the player will be able to get one or two hits on him.
His Heavy Thrust attack will need to be side dodged. Depending on which way he turns during the charge, the player will need to dodge the opposite way. After the dodge, he has a long recovery time and the player should be able to get two or three hits in.
Other attacks
When the player is behind Artorias, he may use his Abyss Sludge attack. This move does little damage but can stun and even knock down players with little to no poise. If timed right, the player can roll forward through the attack and get a hit on him, then immediately retreat.
After Artorias has lost 1/3 of his health, he will start to use his Wrath of the Abyss power up. If left alone, he will do much more damage after he completes the power up for a limited time, potentially one-shotting the player. If the player can get close fast enough, they can stun him out of his power up before it's completed by hitting him repeatedly. If the player doesn't do enough damage fast enough, he will hit them with an area of effect blast attack that will knock the player on their back. The best bet is to use a heavy, high damage weapon and stop him from gaining his attack buff. Another, safer way is to equip a bow in the off-hand and shoot him repeatedly while he is charging up. Yet another way is to equip Throwing Knives and use those in quick succession to stagger him.
Boss information
Attacks
Steadfast Leap
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Slow |
Artorias crouches, then leaps high into the air towards the player, causing damage in a small area of effect around him. Rolling or moving towards him instead of away can increase one's chance of successfully dodging before he lands.
Somersault Slam

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Medium |
Artorias somersaults into the air after which he slams his sword down vertically. He can repeat this up to three times. Roll to the side to avoid it. The player can be stun-locked in this combo.
Overhead Smash
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Medium |
Slams his sword overhead and towards the ground; high staggering power that leaves his guard open for a short time after it lands.
Charging Slash
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Medium |
Artorias moves toward the player while swinging his sword 360 degrees. He presents an opportunity to be attacked after the player dodges his swing.
Heavy Thrust
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Thrust Physical |
No | Right | Medium |
Pauses before performing a heavy, medium range thrust towards the player. If it connects, it can hit twice, dealing heavy damage and knocking the player to the ground.

Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Medium |
Artorias quickly spins, completing a full revolution. It has the potential to connect twice.
Abyss Sludge
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
??? | - | - | - | Physical | No | Both | Fast |
Artorias throws a staggering sludge in a wide arc, a few feet in front of him. Usually performed if positioned behind him.
Wrath of the Abyss
Attack Type | Parryable | Tracking | Speed | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
- | ??? | - | - | Magic | No | AoE | Slow |
Activates in intervals after approximately 20% of his total health is reduced. After rolling away, he will slowly build up dark magic energy, presenting ample time for retaliation, potentially staggering him, or to apply augmentations to one's weapon or self. A single Sunlight Spear can stagger him and prevent this build up from finalizing. If the player does not stagger him, he will release an explosion that does magic damage in a mid-ranged area of effect all around him. Artorias' attack speed, area of effect and damage are enhanced for a limited time afterwards. These effects can stack.
In addition to the health thresholds, this attack has a time interval between uses, in that if Artorias is left undamaged for a period of time, he will re-activate Wrath of the Abyss.

Notes
- Artorias can be stunned via headshots from arrows.
- All of Artorias' overhead attacks hit the player while on the ground or during roll animation, ignoring invincibility frames — except for rolls with the Dark Wood Grain Ring.
- The Set of Artorias is sold by Domhnall of Zena after he is defeated.
Trivia
- Artorias's introduction cinematic is similar to that of the Penetrator in Demon's Souls, who impales a Fat Official and then tosses its corpse at the player.
- Artorias possesses his very own set of unused dialogue [74] hidden in the game's database.
- Great Grey Wolf Sif wields the Greatsword of Artorias in the fight against the Chosen Undead.
- Knight Artorias is the only boss that does not drop any type of Humanity.
- As Berserk happened to be among favorite manga of Hidetaka Miyazaki (the director of Dark Souls franchise)[75], it's no surprise there are allusions to aforementioned manga series in the game series proper[76]. In Knight Artorias' case, he may very well influenced by Guts the Black Swordsman;
- Knight Artorias' pose in promotional artwork of Artorias of the Abyss DLC of Dark Souls eerily resembles Guts' own in his Berserker Armor as depicted in artwork of Voluma 28 of Berserk manga series.
- Both are associated with enormous canines, though their dynamics contrasted greatly (Knight Artorias and Great Grey Wolf Sif are used to be good friends unlike Guts and Beast of Darkness whose relationship being antagonistic true to the latter's nature as the former's personified rage and hatred).
- Knight Artorias' behavior and fighting style after being corrupted by the Abyss could be compared to Guts' own when the latter is completely under the influence of Berserker Armor.

Clinging to his Age of Fire, and in dire fear of humans, and the Dark Lord who would one day be born amongst them, Lord Gwyn resisted the course of nature. By sacrificing himself to link the Fire, and commanding his children to shepherd the humans, Gwyn has blurred your past, to prevent the birth of the Dark Lord. I am the primordial serpent.
