Lore

The sorry fool was known to wander the battlefield as a crazed ghoul, lashing out at friend and foe alike.

— Description of the Sunset Set

Location

Undead Settlement

• Inside the Pit of Hollows. Examine the passive Hollow Manservant with an empty cage at the end of the path beyond the crates past the bridge, ahead of the burning tree with an Estus Shard, to teleport there through cutscene.
  • Grants the Mound-makers Covenant and Homeward Bone.
  • Cage can only be entered if the Hollow Manservant is not aggroed, if Holy Knight Hodrick is alive, and if the second phase of Curse-Rotted Greatwood has not been reached.
• Invades atop a hill before the Dilapidated Bridge Bonfire.
• Summon Sign outside the Curse-Rotted Greatwood boss room after both it and Aldrich, Devourer of Gods are defeated, if following Sirris' questline.
  • Summons the player into Sirris' world to fight Holy Knight Hodrick in the Pit of Hollows with Sirris as an ally.
  • Grants the Mound-makers Covenant if not received before.

Road of Sacrifices

• Summon Sign will appear on the left side of the building leading up to Crystal Sage by the Crucifixion Woods Bonfire.
  • Hostile to any player or enemy in the world.
  • Summon Sign is tied to whether the Crystal Sage has been killed.

General Information

Holy Knight Hodrick is a NPC, an Invading Phantoms, a mad Co-op Summon, and a member of the Mound-makers.

Equipment

• Flamberge
• Sunset Shield
• Pyromancy Flame
• Sunset Set
• Red Tearstone Ring
• Blue Tearstone Ring

Moveset

• Flamberge: Utilizes the full Flamberge moveset. See page for details.
• Stance: Uses the Weapon Art of the Flamberge to take a stance.
  • Almost always follows up with a lunging thrust.
  • Can follow up with an upward swing if attacked while close.
• Parry: Capable of parrying any parriable attack with the Sunset Shield.
• Power Within: <75% HP, capable of casting Power Within, increasing Damage by 20% and Stamina Regen by 30, but draining 1% HP per second for 30 seconds.
• Warmth: <75% HP, capable of casting Warmth, creating a floating orb that heals friend and foe around it for 35 HP per second for 60 seconds.
• Estus: <50% HP, drinks Estus up to 2 times, restoring 30% HP.
  • Restores 50% HP in the fight with Sirris.
  • Can drink up to 3 times in the Pit of Hollows and Crucifixion Woods.

Item Drops

• Vertebra Shackle - Invader
• Homeward Bone - NPC

The Sunset Set can be found in the Pit of Hollows and the Sunset Shield by a grave outside Firelink Shrine after defeating him with Sirris.

A Homeward Bone will also appear on his corpse in the Pit of Hollows after Phase 2 of Curse-Rotted Greatwood is reached without receiving it from him as an NPC, as he is crushed during the phase transition.

Notes

• Susceptible to Alluring Skulls.
• Killing him in the Pit of Hollows does not affect his later encounters or Sirris' questline.
• Like the other Mound-maker, his invasion does not prevent quitting out the game, or even resting at the bonfire, which will despawn Hodrick.

Bugs

• Hodrick's Summon Sign will not disappear from the Road of Sacrifices upon defeating Crystal Sage until the world is reloaded, allowing you to still summon him. However, he will instantly use the Black Separation Crystal afterwards.

Trivia

• Shares a voice actor with Blacksmith Andre and many other FromSoftware characters:
  • Andre of Astora (Dark Souls)
  • Petrus of Thorolund (Dark Souls)
  • Ingward (Dark Souls)
  • Darkdiver Grandahl (Dark Souls II)

When met in the Pit of Hollows

Well, what's happened here?
This pit is for Hollows, not for the likes of you sane folk.
Or perhaps you are a Hollow, posing as otherwise?

Answering "indeed":

Yes, yes, then we're just fine.
It's important to know who you are.
But we'll all be mad, soon enough. And should you be Undead, well, all the more so.

Answering "no":

No, no, of course you're not.
That's what you mad fools always say.
But we'll all be mad, soon enough. And should you be Undead, well, all the more so.

When talked to again

Beware, the shackles of the Gods are fragile.
You might need this. Etch it on your heart if you feel your sanity slipping. (gives the player the Mound-makers Covenant)
Come here to pile up your victims, for that will form your anchor.
You'll see when you go mad. They'll be your family.

When talked to a third time

You'll go mad one day, but not today.
Take my advice. Use this bone, and leave this place. (gives the player a Homeward Bone)
This pit is for Hollows, and for the occasional madman fond of piling up victims.
You've better things to do, I'd hope?

When attacked and made hostile

I knew it, I knew you were hollow!
Well, that's just fine.
You can join my little family!

When killing the player

Right, onto the pile with you. You're family now…

When killed

Ahh, my family…
Dear little Sirris…
