Dialogue
Talk: You're a hunter, aren't you? I knew it. That's precisely how I started out! Oh, beg pardon, you may call me Alfred. Protege of Master Logarius, hunter of Vilebloods. So, what say you? Our prey might differ, but we are hunters, the both of us. Why not cooperate, and discuss the things we've learned?
- Cooperate:
- "Oh-hoh! Very good, very good indeed! Take this, to celebrate our acquaintance." (Obtain fire paper & pray action)
- "Beast hunting is a sacred practice. May the good blood guide your way."
- Refuse: Nothing happens. He will just bid you farewell and you can talk again with him to cooperate.
Talk: There must be oodles for us to share.
- Talk about the Healing Church:
- "As you know, the Healing Church is the fountainhead of blood healing."
- "Well, I'm a simple hunter, quite unfamiliar with the ins and outs of the institution."
- "But I have heard that the holy medium of blood healing is venerated in the main cathedral. And that councilors of the old church reside in the high stratum of the Cathedral Ward."
- "If you seek blood healing, and the church is willing, you should pay them a visit."
- Talk about Byrgenwerth:
- "Byrgenwerth is an old place of learning. And the tomb of the gods, carved out below Yharnam, should be familiar to every hunter."
- "Well, once a group of young Byrgenwerth scholars discovered a holy medium deep within the tomb."
- "This led to the founding of the Healing Church, and the establishment of blood healing".
- "In this sense, everything sacred in Yharnam can be traced back to Byrgenwerth."
- "But today, the college lies deep within a tangled wood, abandoned and decrepit. And furthermore, the Healing Church has declared Byrgenwerth forbidden ground."
- "It's unclear how many of its scholars remain alive...but only they know the password that allows passage through the gate."
- Talk about the Corrupted Vilebloods:
- "Ah, there's something I want to tell you. A bit of wisdom from the eminent Master Logarius!"
- "Once, a scholar betrayed his fellows at Byrgenwerth...and brought forbidden blood back with him to Cainhurst Castle."
- "It was there that the first of the inhuman Vilebloods was born."
- "The Vilebloods are fiendish creatures who threaten the purity of the Church's blood healing."
- "The Ruler of the Vilebloods is still alive today. And so, to honor my master's wishes, I search, for the path to Cainhurst Castle."
- Talk about the Corrupted Vilebloods again:
- "In his time, Master Logarius led his executioners into Cainhurst Castle to cleanse it of the Vilebloods."
- "But all did not go well and Master Logarius became a blessed anchor, guarding us from evil...Tragic, tragic times...that Master Logarius should be abandoned in the accursed domain of the Vilebloods."
- "I must free him, so that he may be properly honored in martyrdom."
- Leave: "I bid you farewell. It has been a pleasure. May the good blood guide your way."
- Give Unopened Summons:
- "Ah-hah! Is that... the sigil of Cainhurst?"
- "I've heard tell of Cainhurst nobles, and their amusingly pompous invitations."
- "Wonderful! I thank you profusely... I will depart immediately. But first, a token of my gratitude."
- (Gives 'Wheel Hunter Badge' and 'Church Bow (Male) )
- "Ahh, I feel my master's hand at work. Praise the good blood! And let us cleanse these tarnished streets."
- After giving 'Unopened Summons' "It has been an honor, but I must say good-bye. Let us cleanse these tarnished streets. And may the good blood guide your way."
- Upon Arriving at Vileblood Queen's Chamber after giving 'Unopened Summons':
- "Master, look! I've done it, I've done it! I smashed and pounded and grounded this rotten siren into fleshy pink pulp!"
- "There, you filthy monstrosity! What good's your immortality now! Try stirring up trouble in this sorry state! All mangled and twisted, with every inside on the outside, for all the world to see! He heh hah hah Hah! He heh heh ha ha ha ha!"
- Talking to him in Vileblood Queen's Chamber:
- "Oh, you, is it? Look at this! Thanks to you, I've done it! Well? Isn't it wonderful?"
- "Now Master can be canonized as a true martyr! Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I've done it, I have!!! Hah h-hah ha ha hah!" (Gives 'Roar')
- While hostlle in Vileblood Queen's Chamber:
- "Just what is the meaning of this? Why turn your blade on me? You're jealous, aren't you? Unclean wench! Vile monstrosity! Bloody fool! Has the blood gone to your head? Pathetic, as you deserve!"
- Upon death: "Pray for Master Logarius... in my stead..."
Lore
Although Alfred is a hunter he is wearing the Executioner Garb which suggests that executioners were once used as hunters. Alfred may be an Executioner and a hunter; or the Executioner order was disbanded after Logarius' martyrdom, (there is no chance that Alfred left the order willingly as he expresses deep love for his master and he is willing to take over his duty and hunt down the last Vileblood). In any case, Executioners were used to hunt down individuals possessing the "tainted" blood of the Cainhurst Vilebloods.
Notes
- Alfred is voiced by Daniel Flynn, the same voice actor as Solaire of Astora from Dark Souls, Alfred even speaks the phrase "" upon giving him Unopened Summons.
- You may safely give him the Unopened Summons if you have joined the Vilebloods and equipped the Corruption Oath without him becoming hostile.
- Killing him after he has given you Roar will make him drop the Radiance Oath.
- Alfred completely tears the queen's body to pieces and this is most likely because he knew that she was undead and would not die from normal wounds.
- When summoned to fight the Blood-Starved Beast, he wields a Kirkhammer. However, when he murders the Queen, he uses a Logarius' Wheel
- It seems after giving him the Unopened Summons... if you attack him (Need not kill him) he will not murder Queen Annalise. Resulting in receiving the wheel hunter badge and gesture but not killing Annalise. Also if you kill him at this point he will not drop anything, however, the Gold Ardeo will still be available for purchase at Hunter's Dream.
- When you find him he is praying in front of a statue that seems to be wearing a mix of the executioner attire and the constable garb.
- He has performed a strange ritual and there is blood on the altar in front of him.
- A close-up of his eyes reveals that his pupils are beginning to "collapse". This is a sign that he will soon fall to beasthood.
