Prepare to Dice...over again

Dark Souls: Daughters of Ash is a Game Modernistic expansion of the original Dark Souls. Daughters of Ash is a What If? version of the game where FromSoftware had 6 more than months to smoothen the original. To reverberate this, the mod changes particular locations and enemy positions in vein of Night Souls Two: Scholar of the Offset Sin. Forth with new bosses and enemies, Daughters of Ash also introduces a whole slew of NPCs and questlines, besides as various twists in certain characters' questlines.

The discord server tin can be found here, and the subreddit tin exist found here.

The mod tin exist downloaded over here, just while the modernistic was uniform only with Prepare to Die Edition, compatibility for Dark Souls Remastered was released afterwards at May 1, 2019, which can be downloaded hither.

A Spiritual Successor (as information technology's been declared a fan sequel to Dark Souls rather then a sequel to Daughters of Ash itself) has been announced; Dark Souls Nightfall a Fan Sequel to 1s Darklord Ending (taking place seconds subsequently the Chosen Undead'due south coronation). It is being worked on past numerous modders, and is massive in telescopic, depicted the Historic period of Dark for the first time, consummate with a massively reimagined Lordran, full voiced new NPC's, new enemies, bosses, equipment, secrets, and an entirely new protagonist.

This page is nether heavy construction. Assistance would be appreciated. A Character Sheet is also under the works.

Examples exclusive to the mod:

• Absurdly Ineffective Barricade: The modern maker added a wall in gild to block players from shooting the Hellkite Drake's tail from underneath the bridge. Except the wall only covers i specific spot, and at that place are plenty of spots nether the bridge from which the tail can exist shot.
• Abusive Parents: The running theme of the mod. Velka's quest is almost punishing four Sinners who wronged their daughters in some way or another.
  • Sen was a terrific blacksmith, but a pretty bad parent. Gwyndolin apparenly barely remembers her.
• Adaptational Badass: Several bosses were buffed from their previous selves. In particular:
  • The Four Kings now have the power to cast Abyss spells such as Pursuers. You also now fight the 4 of them at once, and they have separate lifebars, meaning no overkill damage resulting in fighting just 2-3 kings.
  • The Bell Gargoyles are now stronger with a lot more health, and the second gargoyle spawns with 75% of its max wellness instead of 50%. They can also inflict bonerust. This is to make up for the fact that you can't even fight them unless you have strong enough gauntlets to pull the lever that rings the bell, by which indicate yous'll likely be much stronger than when yous fight them in the normal game.
  • Pinwheel is just as much of a pushover equally before. Until you notice the music doesn't stop after you lot kill him. He then revives himself with much more health, and completely fills the room with his clones. Relish uttering the phrase "I died to Pinwheel" for the first time in your life.
  • The Capra Demon was moved from its boss room (which at present contains a bonfire and the female Undead Merchant) to the large area that would normally be where you enter the Lower Undead Burg. This might sound good at first, since you accept more room to manoeuvre, merely if you make it enough into the room to trigger the doors opening, you have to contend with the dogs and Hollow Thieves that normally spawn in that surface area in addition to the dominate itself. If you want to avoid this, you lot pretty much accept to limit yourself to fighting in the small zig-zagging hallway between the 2 sets of doors. Non to mention that Capra Demon itself has been powered upwardly like the gargoyles to make up for you lot being stronger by the fourth dimension you fight it. And when you lot do manage to kill it, the music stops briefly... only for Kalameet'due south theme to suddenly start blasting equally the Capra Demon becomes the Capricious Thrall and gets its machetes beefed upward with burn, increasing their range and impairment, and adding an explosion to its "baseball bat" attack.
  • The Slap-up Felines, known hither as the Gravestalkers, supervene upon Sif'southward boss fight. Unlike the original, at that place'south no exploiting their A.I. confronting a wall.
  • The Titanite Demon found betwixt Undead Parish (now Allfather'southward Parish) and Darkroot is at present a boss called the Haunting Semblance. It moves faster than normal, and summons a ghostly re-create of itself chosen the Profane Image that casts Completeness sorceries instead of lightning miracles.
  • Gravelord Nito himself is not buffed, just his fight is made much more difficult since he is at present backed upwards past Ciaran unless the player fulfills sure atmospheric condition beforehand.
  • Likewise, the Moonlight Butterfly itself didn't get buffed, just its fight is made more than difficult with the improver of a gold Crystal Golem chosen the Walking Bastion. In fact, it can be argued that the Bastion is the actual dominate and the Butterfly is bankroll it upward.
  • The Gaping Dragon, at present chosen the Bane of Lordran, is not only stronger than normal, simply the Channeller that normally spawns overlooking the dominate surface area now spawns inside it, so you can't impale him before fighting the dominate to prevent him from buffing it up. And he respawns until you trigger the dominate fight, so yous can't just make a detour to kill him before acquiring the item yous need to make the boss appear.
  • Artorias was able to defeat Manus, admitting with assistance from the thespian. He was yet corrupted past the Abyss, merely when Paw is unleashed during the Dual Dominate fight with Sif and Artorias, a shade of Artorias comes back to assist the actor.
  • King Jeremiah gets upgraded from Reddish Phantom invader to boss. He shows up in Lost Izalith's poisonous substance pit if y'all accept the Chthonic Spark from killing the Capricious Thrall, and if he kills you, he steals it!
• Adaptation Expansion:
  • The modernistic adds several consumables, weapons, rings, souls, and bosses along with the expansion of Dark Souls' original lore.
  • Sen, the presumed owner of Sen's Fortress, received literally zilch mention in the original game outside of the area name. This mod really gives the character some lore in item descriptions.
• Adaptational Heroism:
  • Havel the Rock is unhollowed, unlike his vanilla cocky, and if you free him from his cell, he can kill Seath offscreen.
  • Artorias, while yet a boss, is fought protecting Sif from the histrion, and you lot encounter him starting time every bit an marry against Paw. During the fight with his inner abyss, the proficient part of Artorias comes out to fight alongside the role player.
• Accommodation Name Change: The mod changes several place names, forth with some boss names.
• Adaptational Villainy:
  • It'southward implied through Manus' soul description that he was tortured at Princess Dusk's behest.
  • Gwyn is portrayed much less ambiguously in this mod than in the vanilla game. While he does have a bear upon of a Tragic Villain as he was desperate to form friendships and handed pieces of his soul to several people equally a consequence, he's presented every bit a coward and is one of the sinners you're asked to punish in the main addition of the modern. Additionally, the lore suggests that Gwyn's hollowing is not the consequence of linking the fire, merely from sacrificing his girl Gwynevere to the flame in his identify and eventually mourning over it.
  • Same goes for Nito, who's also on the list of the sinners to punish while the original game never really elaborated on his morality.
  • While Petrus was a nasty person in the vanilla game, he becomes an invader under the proper name Depraved Backslider.
• Anti-Frustration Features: The giant crow can now be found at the beginning of the Painted World of Ariamis, and will take you back to Firelink Shrine if interacted with, preventing you from getting stuck in an surface area too hard for you to trounce.
  • Should you lot get cursed during your trip to Ash Lake, there'south at present a Purging Stone available at that place without needing to be farmed from the enemies.
  • Because the modernistic expects y'all to explore New Londo earlier than in the base game, the ghosts are all absent-minded until you lot bleed the water.
  • Some bonfires were moved to more practical locations, such as the one in Sen'south Forge that many players missed in the original.
  • The game no longer ends afterward Gwyn'south death and lets y'all exit without picking an catastrophe, letting you decide when to go to NG+. It also breaks a few flags in the game script because the game wasn't coded to handle this perfectly.
  • The Ver. 1.3 update inverse bonerust so that resting at a bonfire cures it, and made Green Moss Clumps drop more oftentimes from the Demonic Leaf. Bonerust now also provides a heave to concrete defense, which balances its rather severe negative furnishings.
• Ascended Extra: While Undead King Jar-Eel was mostly cut content, he is a fully functional Bonus Boss that can be fought after Gwyndolin's defeat.
• Balance Buff:
  • You can now repair Crystal weapons.
  • The Cataclysm Band was given a 50% AR heave, allowing the user to turn into a Glass Cannon.
• Bishōnen Line: A small-scale example. The rematch confronting a souped-upward Ornstein & Smough starts with Ornstein already giant-sized. Killing Smough first will crusade Ornstein to revert to his normal size once he powers up even farther.
• Bonus Boss:
  • Abyssal Prince Jar-Eel is fought afterward defeating Gwyndolin and dispelling the illusion over Anor Londo.
  • Killing Jar-Eel will cause more powerful Ruby-red Phantom versions of some bosses to testify up in their boss rooms for a rematch.
• Bragging Rights Reward: The Serous Bail gives you the Rusted Iron Ring's effect of not existence slowed down by terrain. The problem is, getting it requires you to get all the style downwards to Ash Lake and and then support to Firelink Shrine, so by the time yous get it, you'll have already passed through Blighttown twice and likely done everything in that location is to do at that place, so you'll have basically no use for the damn thing. The modder apparently took note of this, and added the Rusted Atomic number 26 Ring dorsum into the game with Patch ane.3 and so that you tin get it before going to Blighttown.
• Chekhov'southward Gunman: Remember that crow that carried you to Firelink Shrine? That'southward actually Velka.
• Telephone call-Forward:
  • Sen's bonds describes visions of other worlds that references other games of the series. About noticeably, the Serous Bond and the Bail to Beyond both reference Bloodborne.
  • The Mark of Stone questions whether or not the Painted World can last forever or will eventually rot. The Painted Earth rotting and needing to be burnt and rebuilt is the theme of Dark Souls III'southward DLC Ashes of Ariandel.
  • During the second fight confronting Gwyn, the theme used is Soul of Cinder's theme.
  • During the fight against Sif, Artorias, and the Abyss within Artorias, the theme used is Slave Knight Gael's theme.
  • Petrus' deportment by invading the thespian under a different name reference Licia invading nether the name of the Nameless Usurper.
• Discard and Draw: The Crystal Golems lose the power to curse you, but tin can now camouflage and stay invisible until approached.
• Dual Boss:
  • The Moonlight Butterfly is now fought with the Walking Breastwork, which helps embrace for its Squishy Wizard status.
  • You fight Gravedaughter Ciaran aslope Gravelord Nito, unless y'all requite her Artorias'south soul in the DLC.
  • Sif at first seems like the vanilla boss fight, only with Slave Knight Gael's theme playing, just then Artorias comes to assist him.
• Early Game Hell: Even moreso than the vanilla game. While the Undead Asylum was mostly an area to teach new players, the modern expects you to already know how the game works, and if yous don't, you'll die constantly. And when you reach the Asylum Demon, a lot of curveballs are thrown at y'all relentlessly.
• Faking the Dead: Priscilla's tail is already cut off in this mod, and the dagger that is normally obtained from doing so is found in Sen's Fortress, which its description suggesting that she cutting her tail off herself to fake her death. Indeed, obtaining Priscilla's Dagger is the merely way to "prove" Priscilla's decease to Seath and so that he leaves to mourn her at Ash Lake without actually killing Priscilla and failing Velka's quest.
• Terminal Death Mode: Making a pact with Quella, Goddess of Dreams will enable permadeath. If you die, you become sent straight to the Abyss, where it says the dream ends (basically proverb that y'all cannot continue on, showtime a new save).
• Fantastic Racism: This version of Havel is noted to despise all dragons, while vanilla Havel merely hated Seath in particular, primarily because he hated sorcery, which Seath invented. This Havel hates sorcery because Seath, a dragon, invented it.
• Game-Breaking Bug: Unlike the Stray Demon, the Asylum Tyrant does not damage the hollows, making for an even more than frustrating dominate fight.
• Guide Dang Information technology!:
  • The alternate method of doing the DLC added in the mod is confusing to trigger. Yous demand to kill the Gravestalkers for the Silver Pendant and then give the Pendant to Snuggly to get the Broken Pendant, with your only hint to this beingness that the Silverish Pendant'south clarification now says it gives off a warm light. Also, you take to practise this before getting the Lordvessel, which is now the trigger for the DLC to unlock normally and volition forestall you from accessing the new path.
  • Obtaining Sen's bonds requires fulfilling extremely specific weather with the Pale Eye Orb in your inventory and then examining the correct statue. You lot will probably get rid of the Pale Heart Orb before long after getting information technology, since y'all tin can't go to Anor Londo from Sen's Forge until yous put information technology back in its proper location. To give one case, the "Damp from trickling water" statue in Firelink Shrine requires you to go the Hydra in Ash Lake to bound over you lot to get a bond from it.
• Kaizo Trap: In the Undercrypt (Tomb of the Giants), there are now bonfire Mimics that One-Hit Kill the player with a massive explosion should they try to light them. The first one comes immediately after the fight with a newly-buffed Pinwheel, pregnant the role player will almost certainly be very glad to see it and endeavour to light it without hesitation.
• Killed Offscreen:
  • If yous gratuitous Havel from his cell and make Seath exit for Ash Lake to mourn for Priscilla, then Havel volition kill him in that location, besides every bit the everlasting dragon who leads the Path of the Dragon covenant.
  • King Jeremiah volition kill the Fair Lady and Eingyi if y'all lose to him in Izalith, unless yous've rescued the Daughter of Chaos nearly the Centipede Demon, who will relocate to stand guard outside the Off-white Lady'south room and will kill Jeremiah instead. Otherwise, Quelana will kill him when he tries to go after her next.
  • If y'all give the Chthonic Spark to Vamos so he tin can make Chthonic weapons and haven't all the same fought Jeremiah, Jeremiah will kill Vamos to get the Spark and his inital boss run into volition be in Vamos's room instead of Izalith.
• Jump Scare:
  • Ringing the Bells of Enkindling nets yous a cutscene of Nito rising from his slumber.
  • Every encounter with the Capricious Thrall afterwards the first.
• Meaningful Name: The Capricious Thrall. In add-on to containing most of the word "Capra", "capricious" is divers as "given to sudden and unaccountable changes of mood or behavior". An appropriate name for a boss that repeatedly shows upwards to Jump Scare yous, and if you either die to it or take as well long to kill it, information technology gets bored and leaves.
• Meta Twist: You'll nevertheless have to help Siegmeyer of Catarina get past the Silver Knights, but this time he's trapped by the infamous Silvery Knight Archers.
• Mickey Mousing: The Soul of Cinder'south theme transitioning into its 2nd part is the signal where the iv Black Knights offset profitable yous during the fight against Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight.
• Mythology Gag: The Eastern Set is now constitute in the Painted Globe, referencing the sidequest cut from the original game that involved fighting Shiva in that location.
• Named by the Accommodation:
  • The Four Kings had their names never mentioned, though hither they're named Boltarsh, Silgore, Ganzeyer, and Rendain, respectively.
  • The Soul of Ariamis reveals that the Gaping Dragon was none other than Ariamis himself.
  • Ceaseless Discharge is given the name Quelos.
• Names to Run Away from Really Fast:
  • The Bane of Lordran. Made all the more than noticeable by the boss already being a case of Adaptational Badass.
  • A skilful number of the tardily-game rematch bosses counts, but special mention goes to Ornstein, Scion of Null.
• Nerf:
  • Due to a typo in the damage, the Painted Catalyst was considered to exist the well-nigh overpowered catalyst for INT builds until ver. 1.14 fixed information technology.
  • In the original game, the Master Primal was unbreakable and able to be used multiple times. Now it breaks upon a single use.
• Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: While Lord Gwyn is heavily unsaid to take unintentionally caused about of the problems that plague Lordran, banishing Jar-Eel to the north prevented the full eradication of the Darkwraiths every bit the Sealers intended.
• The Night That Never Ends: Dispelling the illusion over Anor Londo will make it nighttime everywhere, not but in Anor Londo itself. This was actually planned to exist in the vanilla game but was non implemented.
• Not His Sled:
  • Should the Asylum Demon fall down the hole, the Stray Demon will kill him.
  • The Taurus Demon drops downwardly in front of you rather than on the other side of the bridge.
  • Ringing both Bells of Awakening doesn't open Sen's Forge (as it's already open). It awakens Nito instead.
• Odd Friendship: Between Velka, the reclusive goddess of Sin, and Sen, the workaholic Ultimate Blacksmith.
• Exterior-the-Box Tactic: It's possible to kill the Centipede Demon using arrows while on the roots on the Demon Ruins. In fact, that's well-nigh likely how yous will impale information technology, since it'south suicidal to get out and fight it up close without the Orange Charred Ring... which it still has in this mod, same as vanilla.
• Perpetual Beta: Even though the modernistic had a 2-year evolution cycle, that doesn't mean that in that location aren't even so bugs to fix. That said, the creator is willing to mind for issues on this, and those are mostly fixed within a few minutes.
• Power at a Price: The Motes give out diverse buffs, simply drain HP per 2nd, similar to Ability Within.
• Recurring Boss: If you lose to the Capricious Thrall, it leaves the area, and will show upwardly to surprise you somewhere else.
• Screw This, I'm Outta Hither!:
  • If you go far at Seath'southward boss room with Priscilla'southward Soul or Dagger, you'll notice that he left behind his Lord Soul. You later find him at Ash Lake, implying that upon hearing of Priscilla's decease, he arrived at Ash Lake to mourn for her.
  • If yous have likewise long to kill the Capricious Thrall, he'll eventually become bored and leave for his next location.
• Self-Imposed Claiming: The Etched Ring you tin can choose as a starting gift enables you to make pacts with deities, increasing the difficulty of the game. Yous can remove it, but it curses you lot for that. Pacts include:
  • Struggle: Weapon Durability degrades faster.
  • Greed: Decreases the amount of souls gained.
  • Tears: Take double damage.
  • Blood: Stamina Regen is heavily reduced.
  • Dreams: Dice once, and the game's over.
• Skippable Boss:
  • A brand new, alternative method to obtaining Nito'southward Lord Soul is added with the modern, where the player can only flit upwards to Nito's boss room and pluck the soul from his snoozing torso. This locks you into an escape sequence where you have to evade an e'er-respawning Gravedaughter Ciaran, only information technology does allow you to skip an otherwise troublesome boss. Past extension, the Bell Gargoyles can too be avoided entirely.
  • Information technology'southward impractical to do then, as killing them grants you the ability to warp between bonfires, but the Capracious Thrall can be completely circumvented; dying to the Gaping Dragon (called the Bane of Lordran) warps the player to the Painted World of Ariamis, and once they articulate the area, they tin leave to enter Anor Londo. There is a dorsum-upward run into with the Thrall in case yous missed the first 1, but that one can be dodged too by doing a Sequence Breaking jump on the spiral staircase close to Ornstein & Smough.
• Status Furnishings: The mod adds a new status effect called "bonerust" that slows stamina regeneration and makes healing items/spells restore less HP. And if that doesn't audio bad enough, the effect is permanent until you cure it... Or in Ver. i.3, curing it past resting at a bonfire.
• Star-Crossed Lovers: It's implied that Gwynevere and Jar-Eel were in love with each other if Jar-Eel's soul clarification is any indication.
• The Extremist Was Right: The Flame of Chaos wasn't a monumental failure doomed to fail from its very inception in this modern. Information technology was successful enough until Jeremiah decided to intervene to fuck it up and arrive the anathema manufacturing plant we know.
• Through the Eyes of Madness: Wearing the Xanthous Crown makes the Fair Lady wait like a Sunlight Maggot. Coupled with the clarification of the crown and Jeremiah's soul, it either implies that the crown is sentient and drove Jeremiah mad, or that Jeremiah is the crown and the dude wearing it was just a poor shmuck who got possessed by information technology once he put it on. Now what are yous doing still wearing it?
• Truthful Terminal Boss: Completing a complicated, lengthy sidequest nets yous a secret dominate fight with Gwyn in his prime as the Lord of Sunlight. Functionally, the fight is the same as Gwyn, Lord of Cinder, with three major differences: Gwyn tin can no longer exist parried, the battle takes place in Ornstein and Smough's boss arena, and when his health is brought down halfway, the Blackness Knight phantoms will appear to help you deal the coup de grâce .
• Ultimate Blacksmith: Sen, who is implied to be Gwyn'south wife by some item descriptions, is this. To name a few of her achievements, she:

  • Forged the armor of the Silver Knights and Black Knights, and in this continuity, Blackness Knights aren't just Argent Knights that became blackened when they followed Gwyn into the Kiln, and the Silverish Knight armor is said to be impossible to blacken.
  • Forged Havel's Ring out of the heart of a dragon.
  • Taught Velka how to create Rings of Cede. Gets even more than impressive when yous find out Velka is the giant crow who carries you from the Undead Asylum or the Painted Earth to Firelink Shrine. You read that correct, Sen taught a (absolutely divine) bird how to make rings.
  • Is by and large credited for several breakthroughs in weapons design, such as Runic weapons.

Her skills are attributed to her having visions of other worlds and taking her ideas from in that location. Alas, she went on to discover things she shouldn't, and the reveal evidently collection her to dice in her "Groovy Inferno".

• Wake-Upward Phone call Boss: Variant; the Taurus Demon now jumps down from the tower behind you while you're dealing with an archer rather than in front of you lot far away, being the first real indicator that, no, this isn't just a new mook remix modernistic.
