What is the difference between undead and hollow




















They've been alive for so long that their bodies are rotting, hence why they wear so much clothing to conceal themselves. User Info: Spinder1. This has been my thought as well.

It was one of the first things that came to mind when playing the game due to the sharp shift in art direction.

The first game was all about contrast in its art design. Light and dark, warm and cold shades, the ugliest and the most beautiful. This game feels more like color is disappearing from the world. I read almost nothing pre-release but I did hear the "break the cycle" stuff and that made me think that a "return to gray" was going to be the main theme. I was really disappointed that this isn't where the story then ultimately went.

It seemed like there was something building with the grey art style, all the stuff with trees, the increased focus on the ancient dragons and Gwyn's firstborn having "joined" them Would've been the perfect final note to end on. Are some people just born bad or is it how we all become Human termites driven mad in the concrete mound of a rising slum.

Ludleth tells you "that was a long time ago". And if you look into your own tomb, you find an ashen estus ring. So how does that transition happens? And that 3rd shrine When is this??? I think the last boss is yourself. I want to throw this one out there The idea that he was exiled for another reason was a mistranslation in the english version. This was why Gwyndolin was malformed, and why he seemed to hate the Sunbro.

And since every human is actually "undead" when the fire starts to fade, that means, unkindled were dead long before fire started to fade which makes humans undead , and thus were unafected by undead curse, but since every human has the "dark" inside, you are able to draw out "true power" and start "being" hollow as "the rest".

So in the end As for the darksign, that may just be the "thing" to resurrect humans, and the dark sigil that makes them hollow. Last edited by Hekk ; 21 Apr, pm. Daxank View Profile View Posts. There's no difference! Every human has the darksign; it is humanities original form. Whether or not it appears on you is another thing.

More than likely you were a regular human who died, hence coming out of the grave, and was revived by some calling of the fire. It is possible that all humans are linked with the fire in some way which allows them to go to rest.

Of course there are a few important plot holes in the whole revival theory why some become skeletons, why you stay in human form, etc. If you arent then you do regenerate your wounds with help of Flame but you cant heal mental trauma and you eventually, through all the dying, forget who you are or become a twisted version of yourself, hence why some hollows go insane when they were fine before. Eventually this may lead to eternal stagnation as seen throughout all the games at some point.

This is one part of a good explanation for why we see Patches in Ds3 when we killed him in ds1 but dont ever see the other npcs revive after they go hollow. In this case Patches probably left because we were too much trouble. The unkindled are most likely blessed and revived by the Flame in order to help preserve proper humanity in times of dire need. They are called unkindled because they are revived alongside or after the lords of flame in order to help resolve their quest, although they themselves did not hold the Flame within to link the fire.

Am I missing something here? As someone who has finished more than one playthrough I fill I speak with authority when I say:??????? I believe that story wise, being Hollow actually means that you lose your mind. So he says you're not Hollow because you still have control of yourself. AndyD74 : Yeah, they each have a different meaning In Dark Souls, the undead are people who cannot really die because of the dark sign similar to a sickness , they are called "undead" even in human form.

When they "die" they lose humanity and become increasingly hollow zombie-looking, lose sanity. So "hollow" is a state of an undead.
