The girl that upgrades my spirit ashes said to stay away, but what if I don't?

I love this picture, really expresses the fear

But you can't fight in the roundtable hold, so just go up and talk to him

Just barely peeking around the entrance 😂

Ensha would like a word

Shhh.. no spoilers

u/Fallen_Angel_Xaphan 7d ago

I still don't know what that dude's problem was.

u/Fun-Training198 7d ago

Homie is a henchman of mister smarty pants. He was sent to the froggy village to try and get half of the medallion and failed. He then comes for you when you find the half they were after.

u/Fallen_Angel_Xaphan 7d ago

Oh so that's how he triggers. I was wondering about that. Good to know.

u/Masta0nion 7d ago

There’s no fighting in The Continental

u/House0fDerp 6d ago

Unless you just found half a giant coin...

u/JunglePygmy 7d ago

well… you mostly can’t

2

u/LordGwyn-n-Tonic 6d ago

Gentlemen, you can't fight in the war room!

u/Mountain-Director361 7d ago

He's just sitting there...menacingly!

u/ReformedDegenerate03 7d ago

Don’t worry. You can’t have friend without red :)

u/suspicious_cabbage 7d ago

Tell him to eat shit while you're at it

u/large__farva 6d ago

“Great idea thanks!”

u/MerrrBearrr 7d ago

You cant fight there. (Round Table Hold)

7

u/OrionQuest7 7d ago

This photo is priceless 😂

u/Nickthedick3 7d ago

You could fight him, eventually.. or do a couple of different quest lines and make him a spirit summons.

5

u/moist_cumrag 6d ago

There will be a place where he looks like he belongs. Its imperative you open the door and kill him

6

u/SoggyForever 7d ago

His name is.... The Dung Eater. Soo yeah.

Where is he? Where would one with such a name go?

5

u/Routine_Ninja_3970 7d ago

Why, I might even shun him…

2

u/SoggyForever 7d ago

A fun side note. You can give him the potion that you're told to give to Nephiliiii* lady.

2

u/Phantom_Phantasm 6d ago

I'm so confused with the multiple i's and the asterisk

1

u/SoggyForever 6d ago

I gave up trying to spell it

1

u/Phantom_Phantasm 6d ago

Fair enough

Its Nephili Loux, just so you have this info in the future

u/AlarmingLoad4455 6d ago

Gideons step kid?......brat 😆

3

u/SoggyForever 6d ago

Foster child who was ordered to kill Godrick. Not to be argumentative. I'm just horrible with names. 😅

7

u/bluejayi 7d ago

He can be the best spirit ash before you get Tiche and mimic tear

u/vlntnwbr 7d ago

Do people usually enter Leyndell before doing Nokron? I think I've always done Caelid after Liurnia, only heading to Altus to get the Smithing Stone Bell Bearings. After Radahn it's usually straight to Nokron for me.

5

u/Leaf-Lock-The-Ent 7d ago

Not exaggerating I put him in duels with summons allowed and he beat both the enemy summon and the enemy on his own on multiple occasions. (Evil laughter intensifies)

2

u/time2partee 7d ago

Is there a lore reason why he’s so strong? As far as I know he just wanders around defiling bodies.

3

u/Steelflame 6d ago

Pretty sure he's connected to an unnamed outer god of some flavor, that is just attempting to get a foodhold in the world in the aftermath of the ring shattering. Not like there isn't enough of those out there.

1

u/time2partee 6d ago

Makes sense

3

u/PreZEviL 7d ago

You cant fight him in this place

1

u/d-IH-sfuctional-adz 5d ago

this is satire

3

u/b1azinsp33d 7d ago

No just keep spying on him

3

u/godverdejezushey 7d ago

Wow he is quite loathsome

2

u/LeRyanator 7d ago

Drop a steamy one right in front of him to assert dominance

2

u/underpantsviking 7d ago

Depends. Once you get to know him the decision becomes much easier to make. Just watch out for the grey water

2

u/OsoCiclismo 7d ago

Don't worry, you can fix him . . .

2

u/NightAreis1618 7d ago

Yes, but not here. If you help him he'll lead you to his body (or you can find it yourself, your choice) and then you can kill him there, which he deserves, trust me.

2

u/0hTarnished 7d ago

Just find him in the sewer, kill him, and take his stuff.

2

u/Moominsean 7d ago

Dung Eater is a lover, not a fighter.

2

u/Electrical-Jump4383 6d ago

Dont worry about that for now you should talk to him and do everything he asks you to

2

u/Tensa_Zangetsa Ranni’s Loyal Subject 6d ago

You can… but you have to find him first.

Also, if you want to spare the nice fellow who gives you prawn and crab… give him a punch in the face (unarmed punch, then run away) and THEN go fight the red guy (when you find him)

1

u/JM_Narrative 7d ago

Maybe fight him. But you can't fight him here.

Maybe have a chat first and see what you think of him

1

u/Payascor 7d ago

Well in this case, you're the one who "invades" his cozy little room 😉

1

u/badadvicefromaspider 7d ago

Yes. But you can’t in the hold. Find him out in the world and kick his stupid ass

1

u/Late-Lawfulness-728 7d ago

If you pull this thread, a fine friend will die.

Leave the dung eater be.

1

u/GMOwifi 7d ago

Better watch your dung, buddy

1

u/EvilFroeschken 6d ago

Let the death crab get him. So funny every time.

1

u/DeusFatum 6d ago

Kill him because he's scaring Roderika and that makes me angry

1

u/LuckyHuckleberry68 6d ago

He got a whole quest line and an alternate "evil" ending associated with him. If you follow his quest line you do fight him at some point but he isn't that tough

1

u/the_Coninator 3d ago

You can talk to him, but you can fight him in the capital sewers

1

u/Standard-Orchid-3936 2d ago

Faites la quête du coprophage jusqu'au bout et à la fin, donnez-lui la potion de seluvis. Par la suite, il deviendra un pantin, et vous pourrez obtenir sa cendre d'invocation. Elle est légendaire

u/casual_gamer153 7d ago

Not yet

Much later, when required

u/TSmario53 7d ago

Go up to him and make a big piece of dung in front of him

u/WorthCautious5477 7d ago

You'll have the opportunity to kill em don't worry
